Icon 13 (E-mail)

Monday, December 18, 2006 by GH33DA | Discussion: Making Icons

Here's the number 13 icon. It's the E-mail icon.

There's really only two models here. The arrow and the letter.

Model:
The letter is a chamfer box.
I created the arrow with the line shape. I then bent and beveled the spline.
Then I used the mirror tool to create the other arrow.

Texture:
For the letter, I used a standard Blinn material with a diffuse map made from a bitmap and shadow/light falloff map. I also increased the self-illumination.

The arrow used a material close to the letter material but different colors and no self-illumination.

Lighting:
One directional light was used for the letter. And two omni lights were used for arrows.
