Aesir: I've thought about it but I'm still too new to painting to sell them people... I've given some away to friends though. I'm slowly starting up my own small business to sell tshirts, prints, magnets etc. Already got about 115 tshirts printed and a magnet batch.
You have a link to your store Ferg (don't know if you have an online website for that). I would love to see what kind of designs you have, wouldn't mind picking up a few
yay thanks! I just assigned a plain 255 255 255 white material on it, placed a skylight with a bluish almost white color, and rendered it with raytracing on 3ds max.
Is neat, though if you're not aiming for lowpoly you might bevel the edges and chip up the geometry here and there; as for the texture, maybe it's just me, but I'd give it more contrast, example (maybe not so saturated)
Brilliant man, I'll definitely up the contrast a bit.. That was kinda what I was going for with it.
You're right about the geometry too. I was going to chip it up a bit of an afterthought, and couldn't really do it without altering the UVs. I'm going to think about it more before I UV map the other assets though.
Maybe most people wouldn't, but to be perfectly honest I like the sharp, flat shaded geometry. Stylistically. Adding more detail would just give the singular asset more character - but if you can adhere to a sharply lit style with soft, colourful handpainted textures, over a whole scene, it could be really cool.
Try using a different material, i find things look fake using the default material .
new site, though its just a single page but it serves purpose. Still fixing up the header and footer images and i need to add a bit more info down the bottom and put up all the propper images.
My extrude function stopped working but I managed to get a requested gun done, an unsilenced .50 single-shot bolt action snipey rifle. The second one, silenced, I made something for myself.
arrangemonk... all I have to say is... I'm offended! :P
Warriah, I am really digging this venom man. I know someone said make his head bigger, but his smaller head is definatly growing on me (ugh that reads bad). The 3 toes are bugging me just a bit, but screw it... this shit looks great
Art-Machine: actaully yeah i did. u can see it here in the early stages.www.mladenjovicic.com/wip/venom_001.jpg
didn't mind it at first but then i relized he prety much loses his neck and looks like a head smashed against the body.
JasonLavoie: nah. im doing flash currently altho i was tempted to switch but w/e. yeah still have to fix those toes.

After 2 weeks of no CG, needed a bit of practice. Homoerotic etc etc
Finished it I think. Now back to the freelance job search (unsuccessful so far...
Vitor - Turned out really nice man. Personally, has a bit of a Johny vibe, which I like every much.
nothing special, just a steel 10-speed bike. cogs will be turned into alpha planes
Thanks for all the replies on the painting guys.

How do you make it so white like that??

Chins are for gods.
apparently its in our DNA. . .
About 4 hours in total. Last night/this morning.
I did another 2 planks today. Thinking of putting together some good ol' fantasy props.
cool stuff, Gav!
i think i can, i think i can, i think i...
144 polies and a 512² so far. not sure if im going to go to 256² instead
That image just delivered a knock-out punch to my nostalgia gland! Totally awesome. You MUST finish this.
Here's the Obelisk I've done:
Harry: yes.
Gav: wicked

I really love the style of WoW, and it is a really good example of what you're saying. The geometry is sharp, and the textures are really soft.
Anyway, here's what I've done now.

is this a tallboy? Otherwise its a bit too...tall.
Does it really need two flashlights? It looks a bit too tactilol for me.
We can't actually see the gun, we can only see the attachments. Knife, flashlight, weird pump thing, scope.
Is there even a gun under all of that?! :P
Its Pedro time baby!!!! I WANT MOAR!
it should be even larger!
these are some mothafucking pipes!
you're pipes are good but mine are bettahhhh yeahhh
[ame]
you mean like this?

Is this for the comicon competition?

*sniff*
Mmmm... I love the smell of baking.
