Harry Potter Gryffindor Sword - Final Product 6

Firstly I started by finding a picture of the Gryffindor sword and put it on to cinema 4D and rotated the picture so the sword was straight down/
I
I then started by doing the parts if the handle firstly because I knew this would be the hardest part of the modelling. I began just using the beizer tool annd going around half and then added the lathe tool.
With this part of the swords handles was difficult so I used my normal beizer and then lathe but I deleted the middle bit so I was left with the top and middle bit then got back to the handle part nearer the end.
I then continued using the beizer tool and lathe on the rest of the swords handle.

Harry Potter Fat Lady Picture - Final Product 5

Firstly I started by finding a picture of a Victorian style and put it on cinema 4d on front view.
I then used the bezier tool and went around half of the frame and extruded it.
Then I added symmetry to the shape.
I then added a material and put a bump on it so it would give the illusion that the material is 3d.
I then added a flat square into the middle of the frame, I shaped it so it would fit.
I then added a material to this square of the fat lady.

These are the end results.

Harry Potter Golden Snitch - Final Product 4

Firstly I found a picture of the Golden Snitch of Google. I then put my cinema 4D on front view and centered it. I then got the bezier tool and went around the right wing of the Snitch. After this I extruded the image, then I went on to copy the wing and rotate it on to the other side making a left wing.
I then got a sphere shape and sized it down to fit the snitch.
I then went on Photoshop and added the picture of the original snitch.
I erased the wings out so I was just left with the ball. I then saved this. 

I added  a bump to the images at 100% and then added a shine to it (specular). I then dragged this on to the image.
I then got a picture off Google images to add a material onto the wings.
 
 
 I then decided to animate my Golden Snitch so I went on to top view and started with the right wing. I put it at 32.863degrees and keyed it.
 I then moved to the 5 and made the wing go to -31.682degrees and keyed it. I then kept doing this until I got to 90.
 I then started the left wing. I put the wing to 147.983degrees and keyed it.
I then put the wing onto 211.515degrees and keyed it then carried keying these in until I got to ninty.
I then rendered the animated and added the video to youtube.
