Desk model

Here is a model I made in some spare time.

I see allot of weird stuff being made in second life and I thought what about making something that is practical.

The desk was simple to make, I had to upload some wood textures which worked alright. My next task is actually trying to sell an Item I make, if i can make one good enough.

Second life gun

here is a rocket launcher I attempted to make during class, I say attempted because i was caged half the time while making the gun.

Problems I ran into when making the gun was getting it to fire! The code used for the other gun we made was not working as I hoped

The modeling of the gun turned out not that good.

Once we figured out how to make the gun it really showed of the program and some of it's capabilities.

My house

Here is an image of my house I made in second life. Pretty basic house, I was learning how to use the modeling tools for the first time and got a good understanding.

Now that I have a better understanding of the tools, I am going to attempt to make a realistic house in the near future.

3 good second life locations

Bank

Good- I like the fact the building is inside a mountain it really looks good. Textures work well with the model.

Bad- None.

Koolhas mall

Good- The layout of the building is good, the placement of all the objects is good.

Bad- Low speed broadband will not be able to view this location.







Monoca

Good- I like everything about this place, the modeling, placement and theme.

Bad- The blank space of land left, does not compliment the good work done on the town.

My second life character and me

This is my second life character, notice how he is a tank and looks Awesome, sick, kick ass, sad to say I am only 99.7% of this person. Prepare your eyeballs and look below.

Awesome

Hi my name is Matthew, my friends call me Matt, Matty, Mat or it.

Second life cons

Second life obviously is not a perfect program!

Things that might bug you when using the program could be the view style when modeling, when you model their is not external program that you ca use, you must model inside the game! Open to people caging you :)

If you do not have a fast internet connection you will not have a chance of paying second life.
