Putting a picture in SL


I uploaded the picture i took of myself into Second life and textured a box with it. By doing this i learnt how to texture objects in second life.

SL self and real self





Today in class we took pictures of our selves and also took a screen shot of our second life avatar.

In second life, my avatar is seen wearing a Vic Uni shirt and myself am wearing normal casual clothing.
The avatar can change its appearance of not only in clothing wise but its hair and facial features. by doing this you can make your avatar look however u want.

More SL Modeling

Made a quick jail cell in Second Life, no textures used tho.

Here is the basic size of the building, and u can see a little inside the cell







Here is the sink and small toilet/bucket thing.
not the most hygienic place to be







And here is the table thats in the middle of the cell. Not too much detail towards the table.

exploration

Today in class we ventured out to get an idea of what structures are possible to create in Second Life.

Here is a medieval castle that was constructed quite well, although it was not very big and there was not too much areas to explore.
The concept over all looked pretty good but could be improved.







This toon world had a very fun feel to it with its many colours and attractions.
In this screen shot we see mario's castle. Other areas included in the world included smurfs, sonic characters and other cartoon based characters.





This is the Sector 7 base from the new movie Transformers.
The detail is not very good but the over all concept and layout looks very accurate.
In the screen shot we see Megatron aka NB1 frozen in place
