Artist's Comment
About Me:
My Name is Joshua O.I and I’m a freelance 3d generalist known as Jart_3d. I have a passion for creating beautiful art and animations, and have been doing so for about 2 years now. With software like Blender, Substance painter, and Marvelous designer I am able to bring my ideas into fruition.
About "Sci-fi Ball Drone:"
I based my concept on the design of a foldable drone by Sunsky and adapted it to fit my purposes. My version has a bigger base for carrying drilling equipment and also rotating section for the camera and laser beams. I also added fun lights on the body as well as soft plastic sides that could help cushion impacts.
I made simple controls for the drone using empties and constraints. With it I can open the drone, rotate the blades, rotate the camera, as well as control the drill.
This drone is part of a bigger personal project I am working on in which the drone would be used to break into a building to steal certain things. I’m still working on other assets and a sci fi environment for the final animation..
