80-X Cutter (Modern Sword Design) "Developed by Magus & Arms, the 80-X Cutter offers sleek design, safety, and slicing power. The blade is sheathed and unsheathed by a pull of the trigger, allowing for a no-muss-no-fuss quick drawing for when you need it." Designed this sword after wondering how swords would look today if…
hehe I like all the "Let's do theme X because *I* like theme X" ideas... Also it would be a good idea to keep the theme generic enough so we can get maximum participation. I'm not sure if everyone is into fighting games or spaghetti-western-space-operas ...although if you skip all the sphetti-western-and-what-not part and…
I've actually found that 3ds Max seems to have larger issues with 200 objects at X triangles total than 1 object at X+ triangles. Something else that is useful for scene management (particularly high poly bake and builds) is making sure that imported sculpts are editable mesh, not editable poly - for whatever reason…
Yeah Bartalon is right, also, assuming that you're in the polygons tab and the main side of your mesh is center pivoted to the middle. To prevent the hassle of aligning individual vertices to the center for mirroring is to align it altogether by using the absolute transform tab and putting (assuming it's centered on X…
The features announced so far is just 10.0 witch is the first of three installments and you just pay for the upgrade to the 10.x series, so who knows what more they have to offer. After what i understood they will reveal more about what will come in 10.x once 10.0 is released. But i see your point, Im not paying for…
since max 2012 or so you cant weld vertices anymore which are not connected in 3d as well. seems like the newer max version dont allow uv islands without true outline anymore. try create a plane with 2 segemnts x and 2 segments y now do a symetrical split of 2 uv segements (2 y or 2 x) and mirrow them and lay on top of the…
I define the creative process as 50% math (which includes geometry) and 50% emotion. Everybody has feelings, but not anybody can express them. Handling the math part is even less common. Some people perceive the world in terms of shapes (x & y), others see forms (x, y & z). Some have started developing their craft at a…
Someone mentioned earlier about game clones. I do agree with that but I don't see it stopping any time soon. I'm at a mobile game studio right now and basically every decision we make has to be based on "Did X game do it and did X game make lots of money?" It's unfortunate but I guess it's just the way the industry works.…
Thanks all for the help... So what would people think of this rig?... AMD PHENOM II X4 945 3.0 GHz SOCKET AM3 8MB CACHE 8GB CORSAIR XMS2 DUAL-DDR2 800MHz - LIFETIME WARRANTY!

She looks great, I really love the texture work so far. I can't wait to see how you push the skin texture as well. My only gripe so far is that she is lacking in the behind area. You can give her a bit more "junk in teh trunk" or so they say lol. Also it really has no x-men branding at all. You can maybe add some to the…
