10th May 2011 - What I Did Today - Consumable

I started work on my consumable pickup, I made a Health pickup consisting of a Cross and a Box Frame.

I firstly made a cube, I used the Extrude tool to make the internal faces. I then made a second cube and Extruded out each face to make a cross shape. I then added a green blinn texture to the cross and increased the glow intensity to give it a healing effect.

I then created an automatic UV map of my box frame, this was the easiest and quickest method because my model was made of basic shapes. I then downloaded a white marble texture from CGTextures. I created a PSD Network for my box frame and added the marble texture to the frame using Photoshop CS5. I then turned up the ambient color in Maya to make my frame whiter. Here is the finished model:
