Week 05: Construction Underway

I started to properly build the ship, starting with the bow and the stern of the ship using the rough grey box as a guide. Building the deck wasn't too difficult, but when I started with the hull it took a lot more time than I expected. I kept adding loop cuts, extruding faces and manipulating vertices to get the shape I wanted, to make it more ship shape. It was more difficult than expected to get the bow the shape I wanted.

I also hollowed out the hull and also where the captain's quarter's would be. I'm not sure if I would have time to model assets for those areas, and have it textured, however I can easily just have them hidden behind a door.

To check the scale f my ship, I also have a model of the character I used in my previous project as a rough guide on how high to make sections of the ship.
