Colter Hasfurter Week 2 Milestone; More Vegetation, Rocks and Heaven Light Designs

This week, I continued to create a few extra vegetation designs for variety; including tweaks to the fern to have it be more original. I also developed a few rock doodads and newly designed designed for the Heaven portion of the race.

Tweaked Fern

Went back and redid the fern since the original was a copy of a tutorial.

Tiny Tree

Both of my tree designs from Week 1 are quite large, so this was made just to have a smaller type of tree. It could also be tweaked a bit to make a bush.

Second Flower

Another flower design; quite satisfied with how this one turned out.

Rock Doodads

The rocks are a work in progress. I actually found it quite difficult to shape the objects to get that deformed shape most rocks usually have. The lone exception being the rock at the top-right which was based off a type of flat-rock.

Heaven Lights

(Floating Light)

(Light Post)

I re-thought how to do the lights, and this is what I came up with to go in the heaven portion of the level. The lights actually come with a few bits of animation to give it a more futuristic look suitable for heaven.

There is a minor problem here where I couldn't combine the pieces into one object, because if it's all one object, you can only animate one thing. Trying to animate different parts of one object all at once causes everything to reset. It doesn't sound that bad, but it makes for a rough transition into Unity where it transfers the object over in pieces rather than all in one group, and it would have to be put back together in Unity.

Future: Similar to last week, I need to get to work in photo-shop to get the textures and branches done.
