Sometimes it's not all excitement

Today was a bit of a slow go on the buoy and the death contraption. I got asked late yesterday to supply 4 cg models for packaging display units. It was one of those "Sure, that sounds fairly easy" kind of jobs. The modelling was pretty straight forward. However, it took a while to get all the lights and materials set up in the computer, and then even longer for the computer to render the scene. After that, they'll apply all the packaging graphics to our renders. So today was a fairly late start to the other jobs. I did manage to get all the fabrication on the buoy all finished though. And the base coat of red on as well. Our Techno cnc got the pre-mask cut on the sign panel, and I got the text all sprayed. This job is due Friday at noon, so getting the buoy to this stage was paramount, as that leaves tomorrow to do all the rust, fading and beating up of the sign panel.
