Final Project Progress: Printing Struggles

 I have been visiting the fab lab over and over again. It is very challenging to find an open printer, but every once in a while I get lucky. Each print takes anywhere from 3-9 hours and I've been playing with different levels of infill and supports. I think I am going to have to do normal supports which I have been hoping to avoid.

I am super proud of what I created, I think they are at a decently professional standard.

We have only met in class once so far so we haven't accomplished much in a class setting, but outside of class we have created 2 animations. Even though the animations are very simple I have always been eager to learn how to render 3D animations so this is pretty exciting stuff and I'm proud of what I have accomplished so far. The process itself was challenging and took a while to learn, but I have a lot of experience dealing with 2D animation so the hassle of keyframes and stuff wasn't anything new. Honestly the biggest obstacle I've faced so far is just turning in my projects because the dropbox has been difficult. I know we were only expected to turn in the playblast, but I was very curious what the animation looked like rendered so I taught myself and I'm glad I did because of how the results turned out. It is also very cool how we are learning to rig our own mo...
