The Intercept Axon was my hard surface modeling assignment, completed with accessories such as the scope, stock, folding grip and foot stirrup. This was a challenging yet fun assignment as I worked my way around solving beveling and topological problems. My greatest challenge was with the cam of the crossbow as it had many holes and sharp edges as well. The one thing I learnt about modeling an object with many parts is, to let the normal map do the work of the tiny details.
In this project, we were introduced to UDIMS and how to render our work in real time using Marmoset Toolbag. I had to make sure not to use up too many UV islands and look out for strange creases on flat surfaces.
