Chun-Yi Wu: Zodiac Constellation - Aries

The Second pepakura project I have process is Aries, which present as a female goat. This time I have asked one concept artist to drew me a reference then I'll modeling it in Maya. One of my friend was interest on rigging so I basically asked him to rigged as a try work. Which comes out fine with some poly point fixing.

This project have use the basic animation production process to produce the work flow. which is modeling, rigging, posing and it did helps the quality of the work, but slowing down fore each process of works.

 For now what I have done is half of the model printed out

 

After glue all them up Aries is Half way to the finish product, and one code of the Aqua Gem turns the cardboard like the wooden surface.

Continue to my pepakura project the Mermaid I had made from last semester as Aquarius. Then this time is Sagittarius. Which it will be look like a Centaur and its going to be a life size 7.5 feet tall. As what I have said, I'm interest on myth and making these pepakura piece is present as my self in the western culture.  I totally use 13 sheets of 2 x 4 ft card board for this main body piece. Which is the largest one I have done since then.

There's problem comes by which is that its not standing properly . It fall off without support so I have use a wood board glue up with it until making a stand for three foot glue on top.

Chun-Yi Wu Semester2 Project-1: Singing Mermaid_update

This is my second semester for this class and I have an idea after the previous semester last assignment "pepakura"  The Idea is make a live size of the mermaid and paint it over top, if possible making more pepakura animal on the side to create a scene of "a peaceful moment that mermaid singing."

The theory of the mermaid set up as Aquarius is because the idea of symbolization of aqua myth creature, also known as Siren, they using their beautiful voice to Lured the sailor to their death.
