Hey all!

Thought I'd start a thread where I can display my work and get feedback off you amazing polycounters! Crit and Comments would be great!

I've only just switched to MAX today so thought I'd test some off my modelling skills I acquired from Maya

So far, so good! For baking out high res-textures for low resolution meshes this TV (or Radio, if I'm not mistaken). I see your Maya skills have transferred very well into 3Ds Max. Maybe some wire-frame renders for the thread...:D

Pumpkin

Sweet! Are you gonna bake that down?

I'm thinking of switching from Maya to Max as well,do you have any tips for a fellow polycounter? Thanks!

R00

GabeLamas - Yea it will be baked down (the TV) in the coming days if I get over this flu... here are the wires.



Pumpkin - Yea I am. I had to use Maya for University but now I'm finished I'm going back to MAX as it is far easier to work with (in my opinion). All I can say is practice, practice, practice. I know it's lame but thats the only way you'll improve and by communicating with people on forums too. Hope that helped

Sorry for the lack of updates guys! Here is the finished model.

R00

Thanks Amile! Onto the next project I guess

R00

Quick Model for the day

R00

Just a few tweaks and details added to the model, now going to bake down and texture

R00

Baked the model down. Polycount is 2488 Tris using 2K textures. Now onto texturing



AO and Normals maps.

Sorry for the slow update, just got back off holiday.

Here's the final render of the blow torch. I'm aware there are a few faults here and there but any crit or comments would be great

GabeLamas

Oooh, nice resolution on the render. The dirt and debris on the blowtorch brings out the unevenness as if it's been used a lot. Nice work!

Same goes for the TV, nice resolution and detail.

R00

Thanks GabeLamas! I've been trying to brush up my skills before I start applying for positions

R00

Here are the maps and wireframe

GabeLamas

Optimized edge layout AND bump/ specularity maps. This is a fantastic model!

Hey all!

Just a doodle I did this evening to get back into sculpting, will finish this off tomorrow

R00

Finished high poly doodle of a vase. Any crit or comments would be great

good stuff, i got one crit for blow torch though.

that thin pipe looks like it's made of plastic, unlike actual thing:


metal parts seem to be too bright and too desaturated on diffuse map.

R00

Thanks Blaisoid, it does look very plastic come to think of it. I'll go back and amend this later

R00

So it's been a while since I last posted so here is a model I started on last night

R00

And here is the Low: 314 Triangles using 1K Maps

Re-worked the brick work, and window ledge crit and comments welcome
