Blender 3D

You might remember me mentioning an open-source app called blender 3D, well today I finally got round to giving it a shot. My previous experience of 3D apps was limited to playing around with Maya, not really doing that much. Following one of the tutorials in the Blender 3D Wikibook I created this:

I won’t be giving DivineError a run for his money anytime soon, but it’s a start!

Had my first of two exams this week, Astronomy. Seemed pretty easy to me, but we’ll see what the results say!

 
 

First Exam

Had my first August exam today, went really well. I think all the work I did for building this site helped me out on at least the SQL and XML front. Computer Science down, maths tomorrow! Woo! :-/

Cycled up to the exam today, and cycled back, both times I had large coughing fits upon stopping. Maybe time to go to the doctors I think. Been two weeks off the bike now, but I haven’t had any of last weeks fevers again thankfully

Downloaded a free open source 3D modeling app today called Blender 3D. Works on WIndows, OS X and Linux, so something for everyone. The 5 minutes I played with it it seems similar to maya in terms of controls. Will play around with it more when I have time, but expect some 3D artwork soon.

New Design (Again)

Yet again I have changed the design of the site. I have also moved my blog to a separate page to allow for some sort of gallery feature on the front page. I might possible use it for a splash page to show off my blog engine features when I eventually release it.

Exams this week, so not going to be doing much work on the site, but if you think of anything that could be useful to me, leave a comment below.

Hope you’re all good.
