For my filter, I’m thinking of some sort of western theme. So far I’ve been able to successfully make a cowboy hat, but I think I want to create something more interesting with it. I want to experiment with skins to make the hat look more interesting than a regular cowboy hat. I might do a certain color scheme or texture that matches the whole filter. I also want to use Blender to create at least one more accessory to go with the hat. When we did the build a bird lab, I struggled a lot with Blender but after working on the hat I feel a lot more confident, and I think I would be able to develop more elaborate details for the filter. It might be too much, but I was considering finding a tutorial for another animal that could sit on the person’s shoulder. I would want to animate it to turn its head or move around some too if I can work through the weight painting tool. With the bird it looked unnatural and there were several glitches getting it to walk, but I was pretty successful with the head and tail movements, and I think I would replicate it with another figure. I can’t decide if I should do a different type of bird or if it would even be possible to do a lizard or mouse for the shoulder.
