I wanted to get the students right into using the software by making a fairly simple garment that would use most of the features of the program. Puffer jackets are great for this—you can experiment with fit, pressure to simulate the filling, elastic and fold angles to create the paneling, and layer cloning to get realistic looking folds. After some software familiarity the students can pick from a range of concepts or bring their own, and create garments that match their concepts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/6d711e0e-dd29-41db-ab64-bf062789f5fd/ref.png Blog - CGMA Course Demo Initial reference gathering and concept of the Yharnam armor set. I wanted to stick close to the painted concept rather than referencing the final model used in Bloodborne and incorporate reference from the movie that inspired the game “Brotherhood of the Wolf” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/1692470189301-SLMFAOX7B9Z8TI1M4SG9/close_FullQuality.png Blog - CGMA Course Demo - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/0f404ace-d414-4f45-a1f4-dffad262b89a/layers.gif Blog - CGMA Course Demo - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/b83e6033-c58d-45b5-ac9a-2dd754266cc5/md_03.png Blog - CGMA Course Demo - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/54543d7b-33c4-4436-844d-51b259748c30/md_01.png Blog - CGMA Course Demo - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/54be148e-96e2-4c04-9ea1-5bea187d9ca7/brotherhoodwolf.jpg Blog - CGMA Course Demo - Make it stand out Scene from “Brotherhood of the Wolf” (2001) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/c6a1d9c0-ef97-4532-be51-b78865b1e1e1/md_02.png Blog - CGMA Course Demo - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/bd4673aa-74e3-42e4-bab0-ac2e8abd9518/test_render_front.png Blog - CGMA Course Demo - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/af5dc8bf-83aa-434f-b0c3-271ba98981f4/md_04.png Blog - CGMA Course Demo - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/49455fb7-c60f-4109-8e89-425509a82482/bloodborne_high.png Blog - CGMA Course Demo - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/03535b84-1aa7-4276-bafe-99dea4f7cff3/front_FullQuality.png Blog - CGMA Course Demo - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.jaysonfitch.com/blog/octave-guitar-pedal monthly 0.5 2023-09-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/d76c3602-cbab-4285-b1b6-5beda1a7dc38/PXL_20220221_000121367.jpg Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal - The pedal before painting and printing Even though the bare aluminum has some charm, I can’t tell what the controls do—and it needs a little spice. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/28003237-b8ef-4287-be56-5c456b68db0d/designer.png Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal - Make it stand out Using substance designer was much easier than trying to keep track of a messy layer stack in Photoshop, and I was able to warp, blur, and bevel while continuing to iterate on my input renders for non-destructive results. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/e4b239db-67b2-4cd7-9d87-48fefbc6c480/PXL_20230827_174755312.PORTRAIT.jpg Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal - Make it stand out Here you can see the pedal after black paint and varnish with the sticker applied. Unfortunately I didn’t sand between coats so the enclosure had a bit of an orange-peel texture to it. This caused the sticker to sit a few mm above the surface in some areas. I wasn’t happy with the result so I decided to pull the trigger on screen printing supplies: https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/bf8d5545-4b4d-4eea-9f63-39711e0058b2/process_gif_01.gif Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal - Make it stand out The process of the final composite—combining the diffuse curve render from zbrush, some of the experimental cross hatching passes, curvature, and an outline. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/4bb274ea-5e2d-4dac-961a-93fb30ae678e/PXL_20230908_174706067.PORTRAIT+%281%29.jpg Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal - Make it stand out Here’s the final product after printing both colors and applying a few coats of varnish. I’m pretty happy with it and I learned waaaaaaay more than I thought I would. Hopefully the next pedal takes me half the time. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/6aa56486-8b27-4c96-afcb-cde043ca37a5/blend-if.gif Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal - Make it stand out The only downside with using Substance Designer was that it didn’t have the ‘blend if’ options that Photoshop layer blending has. I wanted to be able to take an input image and blend it with the background image based on specific greyscale values (only multply if the background image’s grayscale value is above .5, for instance). Here you can see a quick mockup of a custom blend-if node I created using a pixel processor. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/7ee808f3-61e1-4f82-9033-cfa9a4fd2305/blendif_pixel_processor.png Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal The blend-if pixel processor takes the input grayscale and, given a minimum and maximum value to blend with the background, returns values within the maximum range input. This is then routed into a standard blend node so that all of the blending modes are available within the Blend-If node’s parameters. I’m still not entirely happy with the results as it can look a bit pixelated around the edges depending on the chosen values, but it got the job done for this project. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/6f65ca33-39c2-422f-a8f5-0d9cbfd436e4/PXL_20230829_185629285.jpg Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/08280431-5cab-4485-9724-04b64e6a448a/jf_aasb_print.png Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal - Make it stand out The final design. I attempted to use water-slide decals to print it but ran into several issues—from melting ink to improper placement, and poor quality prints on my inkjet printer. I thought about investing in some screen printing equipment but ultimately decided to have it printed by StickerApp on a clear backing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/e115cce2-52df-49da-8f02-5c931e3cad66/full_lighting.png Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal - Make it stand out The Zbrush sculpt with polypaint, started from a purchased scan. I wanted to show more of the bone and gore at the wrist but realized there really wasn’t much space on the pedal’s surface—especially with the controls and knobs covering portions of the design. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/63b32e0c7ff4986ab0eec115/1692466146250-M4VFXAHGZO26ZBVPERPS/r_1_Render_002.png Blog - Octave Guitar Pedal - Make it stand out The final mockups in Toolbag. Before attempting to paint or print any design on the pedal I wanted to create mockups in 3d—modeled in Blender, textured in Substance Painter, and rendered in Toolbag. To create the design of the hands I started with a Zbrush sculpt and used non-photo-renders and Substance Designer to composite different passes and bakes:
