So, I just finished my UVW robot mapping activity and what else can I say but "That was easy". It honestly intimidated me at first because I didn't know where to start and I hadn't completed the other assignments for the quarter such as the Gas Can and the Wall. I still pulled through though thanks to some help from my friends in class. It definitely isn't as time consuming as some other projects are either. Definitely my favorite project of this year. Not too time consuming and I get to express my own artistic style on a model I am familiar with since I have used it several times already. The fact that you can still go over the lines when you're coloring the map in Photoshop is a lifesaver and it makes the whole process ten times easier. One thing I wish 3ds Max did when creating the map is, separating the bottom map and the top map more so you can put solid colors or picture on it more easily without having to go out of your way to find loopholes. Overall, great project that I loved.

For the past few days, my work flow has been absolutely terrible in this class. I've been getting distracted buy music and spacing out when watching tutorials. I might not even be able to finish the 2 major projects I have this quarter. Not having music might help me out more. I often get distracted by work in other classes and I end up just playing around with things in 3ds max. While this is a good thing sometimes, I can't keep doing this. I want to end this year strong and learn as much as possible before I drop out of the class. My work flow for all of my classes has been lacking recently. I just feel like I can get it done at a later time and then it ends up taking longer than I expected. I know everyone has this feeling sometimes. I need to fix it for 4th quarter.
