For the second project I've decided to rebuild one of the amazing set in Ratatouille. Just one corner of the old kitchen, with all the porcelain jars, bronze railing, metal boiler and other distinctive kitchen equipments.
Just a moment after start sketching the preview, the meticulous details have come up to the surface. There's so much fine features in every object, it's clear this will take so much time, not mention patience.
To get to familiar with the objects I made little drawing of them (sometime I made up the details in my own perception). This helps a lot when it comes to modeling; I found it's better to have a reasonable amount of understanding about the object and its environment before starts modeling. It will make the modeling process a lot quicker too.
Because there are a lot of roundish object, such as bowls, plates, jars, cans, etc, I used a lot of Surface/Revolve technique. This works better when we have a precise-shaped curve, with sufficient amount of dots/vertex, but not too much that it makes it hard to manipulate. Some practice with Curve tool will get us the knowing of effective use of dots.
At this stage I have the basic interior and several objects ready. Next thing would be texturand material research.
