Rationale


I chose to put my model in an ice-like landscape because I thought it represented and showed off my model in a positive way. I think the glass material I used for my model gave a nice opaque effect and had nice shadows. In my video I wanted to show off the different layers of my model and also thought that the views underwater were really effective. I though the music I chose worked well with my video and brought it up.

New model

This is my new model i have created using inspiration from the images i have found and also inspiration from my datum model from the previous assignment.

Images i have found for inspiration

This image has given me the most inspiration with the lines of the icicle

My idea for my cry engine final is to be in an almost an ice cave setting and i want my model to have an icicle feeling to it. I think my model i have at the moment is too common and has been seen a lot so i want to look for inspiration to change my model to something more original. I also want to explore how i can use my model to act like an ice cave as well as an icicle. I want my model to resemble an icicle without have some of the features of an actual icicle.
