Silhouettes and Doodles

Homework we had to do was to create 100 silhouettes and 50 doodles/scribbles. It took much longer then I originally though honestly, haha. Doodles not so much. Although I did have to keep going back for a few.

Now we have to make actually drawings with them. Making something from silhouettes essentially, but that will be fun. I actually love finding things in textures and such. And in truth we are doing the same thing but with textures for our next hw assignment.

I got the 50 textures but I still havent done any of the drawings for any just yet. Still doing other hw assignments!

Photography hw coming next hopefully!

TF2 CTF Well

Another assignment that we have to do is to make a presentation of a first person shooter game and define the map and theme. I went with Team Fortress 2 Capture the Flag Well map.

The top photo is the rocket in the back of each base. The middle photo is the building for the Red Team base and the last photo is the base for the Blue Team. What I find funny about these maps are the "hidden" glitches and such about. While roaming around this map I happened to find myself in another plane far from the original map. I didnt take a screen cap but I still thought it was funny how they left that little piece there. Why?

Anyway; here is a little legend map overview of the Well Map.

Biome

Another year is here and so begins the trails to survive.....

For one of the first projects we are going to make a evocative biome. That essentially means making an environment that has an emotion. We can choose whatever kind of environment and create what we want but we have to make that area evoke an emotion.
For my idea, I want to make a photo from a wonderful photographer I've been following for years now, come to life. Its a slight swampy look but its actually a forest like scape.

^ These photos are taken from Mount Auburn cemetery in MA. I just love how everything comes together and that sunlight that comes through is just beautiful.

Although for my theme I wish to portray fear or suspense. I'll be changing the light to blue hues and casting more night time light. 

Right now we are just getting reference so I'll be posting more ref for textures and such later on.
