This week will focus on mapping and animating the finished model. The most challenging part of the texture of the whole model was the texture of the basket. It was not a solid color, so you had to find the corresponding material and unroll it and then stick it on the model.
For the balloon texture, a soft but slightly reflective material suitable for balloon fabric in hypershade is selected.
A metal material was selected for the gas tank, and different colors of the bottle were mapped separately.

After finishing everything with the model, Nick showed us how to animate the balloon, which wasn’t too difficult. All we need to do is put a sequence frame on the time series after moving the balloon. Finally, the export is complete. I think exporting is a very important thing. Because I made some errors in the export Settings, there were some problems after I put the files into nuke. Note the different export Settings for different file requirements in the next exercise.
