My Little Steps

Malgudi Days is a book written by R.K. Narayan. It is a collection of short stories portraying the simple Indian life. The famous cartoonist R.K. Laxman, R.K.N's brother, illustrated some of the beautifully described landscapes. As tribute to these masterpieces, we were given the assignment of recreating a Malgudi illustration in 3D. Here's hoping I did it justice.  The references: The final output: Well, Thanks for visiting! Bye...!! ~~~~~~~Chinmayee. S

Hey Everyone! New topic today! It's called materials and texturing... Here are some of the different materials I made in Maya, using the nodes in hypershade. Double Sided Plane: Here, I added two textures to one plane, with the help of condition node. Brick Wall: I used Grid node to get this output. Glass: I used Anisotropic material to make this look like glass. Apple: I used Layered Texture here to get multiple elements to work together. Wooden Plank: I used fractal and grid to get this output. Soup: The bowl was given double sided texture and the soup was given a texture that was downloaded. Rotating Ribbon: I did this using grid and ramp. Here's another one. I added granite to try and give it a glittery effect. Rim Light: This was done using Ramp. That's all for now! Thanks for visiting! Bye...!...
