For my upcoming year in game design, I am looking forward to the many new 3d modeling skills we will be learning some of those skills I hope will be involving character design. Another 3d modeling concept I hope we dive more into would be working with texture so that we can begin to create more realistic models; exploring new 3d modeling Softwares and learning how to create architectural designs is another 3d modeling skill I am looking forward to learning; I also hope next year we begin to explore creating actual games.

For my summer assignment, I had decided to work in the 3d program known as a blender; my work in blender started with me working on a chess piece model that would help me better understand the new 3d interface I was working with, but to have more practice I started working on at what I thought at first was a simple donut but turning out to be a long and complicated assignment especially with my lack of knowledge on the tools required to make this model.
While working on the 3d donut I learned many new tools and materials that I applied in a blender such as learning new key codes to help with navigating blender better and how to work with material editing (nodes).

For my summer assignment I have decided to work on my 3d modeling skills by using the program blender, using the blender program allowed me to hone my 3d modeling skills, but to be able to work with blender I had to fully understand the applications and capabilities of the new program I was working with. To help me understand the program I began with working on a simple 3d model chess piece; creating the chess piece was a very minimalistic task that required no prior knowledge of the program the only challenging aspect I encountered when working with blender was figuring out how to convert the 3d model from its original blender format to a jpg or png format and having the image rendered and scaled to size. From my experience with blender, I learned the basic skills needed to create a 3d model, and I learned the different ways to apply the scale tool within its programs.
