3D Modelling - More Cloth + Displacement practices

-

  Further progress on my current 3D Modelling project! Added pillows to the bed and changed the walls as the theme will be more Medieval, so that I can incorporate the sword models I have made. The walls are actually a displacement modifier which is created using a bitmapped image which 'bevels' the cobble bricks, making them look more 3D. This adds texture to the walls and makes them look more interesting. I want to apply the same technique to the floor in the near future.

3D Modelling - Geolocation

-
Image
In this project, I geolocated my bitmapped objects into Google Earth Pro. To achieve this, I began by exporting the files into an app called Sketchup. For the textures to stay intact, I had to give these files a short, 6-letter name and keep them in the same folder as my 3DS model. After this, I can proceed with selecting a location in the Geolocation mode of Sketchup and exporting the file as a .kms. After this, I can open the file and view these models in Google Earth in my selected location (which was the Meadows in Edinburgh).
