Ladies and gentlemen my dissertation is officialy completed. I am going to hand it in within the next couple of hours. I'm just printing it out now.

I will put a copy online as soon as I have permission from an interviewee that it is ok to put it online.

I can finally start on the fun stuff now.

colour!

Hi people,
I have finished unwrapping the assets parts of the noodle shop.

so I added some colours to the uvw sheet so that I could see waht each section is, and use them as masks in photoshop.
for now I'm very tired so I'm going to go to bed and continue at some point soon.
I'm in work all weekend but I will be working on this whenever I can.

Thanks guys.

P.S. The dissertation is going well :D

appologies

Hey all,
I'm sorry I've not posted for a while. I've been busy.
I have done a little bit of work on the scene by starting to optimise and add parts to my noodle shop. Here is what I have so far:


The parts that are in colour have been added. The part's in checker have been unwrapped.
I'm looking forward to finishing all of this off, but unfortunately at the moment I HAVE to focus on my dissertation.
I still have a chapter and a conclusion to write, and I need to revise my introduction and first chapter, so plenty to keep me busy (as usual).

I hope everyone is having fun with their projects, and I hope they all understand just how important a good mark on your dissertation is.

Catch you all later,

cx
