Subdivision sketch: it's all about flow. This is a really quick visual primer on curves, loop flow, and basic subdivision modeling concepts. Here's what a curved segment looks like. Notice how each of the edges that makes up the curve is evenly spaced around the central axis. That even spacing is why the mesh smooths…
Hello, everyone! First time poster, so excuse my ineptitude at this, but I am in the market for something rather specific: I've been looking around for someone who could do a model for a character I'm working on. When it comes to this particular model, I'm looking for a robotic character inspired by the likes of Five…
Before switching to digital 3D, I made a living building prototype models for studios and clients. One overall thing that got to me was how long I thought something would take vs. the price that was needed. Things always go south. I got this email the other day and yes I intentionally low-balled it as there wasn't much…

However, one crucial node to combine the whole thing makes it so opening the Material Instance crashes Unreal. If I remove the node, the Material…
Yeah i saw it (good idea the wirexx comments thing), the only reason i wouldn't manage and all that other stuff which i think i might be able to do but i do no do "socials", discord and the like cause I'd have to trust, I'd just write up doc's/pdf's/jpg's and let people manage themselves. Do not feel like people like being…
It's been a while since I had to animate with Character Studio, but if I remember correctly, there is no way to stop the head and arms from counter-rotating / staying in their current rotation when twisting the spine? Similar for some other limbs/connections. Edit: Basically talking abou this:…
