Footie guy

Sligo Rovers Fall guy

Been watching alot of Fall Guys game play and really liked the aesthetic.  

I did not buy the game as I was worried it would become a major time sink.  

What I did think would be fun would be to model some elements in Blender. For the player models I made one up in my home town football strip of Sligo Rovers (stripes).  Another model is based off one of the most popular snacks in Ireland - Tayto crisps.  The mascot looks like this.

It was a fun exercise and the success of the game is based on the simplicity of the basic design.

Another instructional video.  This one is looking at the Covid-19 antibody test.  This test is not used for detecting cases.  An RNA detections system using RTPCR is used for that.  This one is useful for figuring out if someone was exposed to the virus previously and is really important when developing vaccines.  It can be used to assess the strength of the immune response or the efficacy of a vaccine candidate.  

It is made up multiple steps and I have made multiple 2D representations of this kind of method.  This is a 3D approach.  I have not seen many of these so it was a good exercise to model the assets out figure out camera angles ect.

Assets trials

Final models

To make it as efficently as possible I created one major scene and set up multiple angles to capture the important details.

Main scene with cameras

The cutting together of all the resuting scenes with text was a bigger task than I had budgeted.  Some of the difficulties could hve been overcome by shooting better.  All in all given the scale of the task  (the largest so far)  I was happy enough with the outcome

If you have any questions let me know.

A short animation trying ot some techniques and rigging.  Modeled a low poly landscape and set of buildings.  

Landscape modeled

Modeled two characters using the Blender rigify.  Gave a basic walk cycle to the security guard.  The thermometer was a child of the guards rig

For the car  I used a driver expression and an emptys movement to rotate the wheels and the wheels were parented to the car.  

The car window movement was a shape key animated.

Everything was rendered in cycles.  The main action was slowed down during editing and the colour balance shifted.
