Re: [Finished] Kaminsky Handheld Device
Doing a test of the hinge and lid opening mechanics for this, and it worked! I was worried about this change to the concept, since it required animations to maintain the look and still function. -
Re: 3dcoat seems superior to zbrush in every way?
it dawned on me that mudbox still exist. For some reason I thought it had been discontinued. Anyway, I trying out the 2024 version and actually it is closer to what I've been seeking than 3d coat is. When it comes to sculpting I pretty much use like two brushes and the only functionality I have to have is subdivision… -
Re: Sci-Fi Spaceship
Thanks @Olingova ~ The cockpit was one of the things I spent most time playing around with different designs, so I really appreciate the feedback on this :) The things on the front are supposed to be antennas, I had experimented with guns somewhere on the cockpit, but I couldn't get them to fit in a way I thought looked… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Shabba
Hey Darren, Skimming over the other replies here - I think I'm just echoing their thoughts: -You need to create a cohesive scene.

Re: Futuristic Russian Helicopter (Hind inspired)
Joeriv: haha I might be one of the few 3d artists who actually enjoys UVs (at least the final fitting to 0-1 part). It's def a giant puzzle! Teh Splatt, Powermaennchen: Thx! Battlecow: Too kind! I actually liked my original version of the cockpit framing more but there was one big problem: It wasn't functional. Oops!… -
Re: Modeling Portfolio Feedback
Hey Mike The scorpion piece is cool. I do think your shots spend time looking at it from a distance. I'd be more interested in getting a closer look at all time and work you put into making it functional and seeing detail where it would really be. Might be cool to give more of a story to the detail now. I've noticed a lot… -
Re: Auto Rigging in XSI
Thanks for the comments guys. Good to know there's interest outside of my own for this thing. Makes the effort even more worthwhile I think. Dur: yeah I'm crossing my fingers for a simultaneous 6.0/CAT release =D I'd happily throw this thing away in exchange for a commercial system. The challenge is fun and all but… -
Re: Why Ambient Occlusion vs Baking Into Diffuse?
You may also need occlusion as a separate texture from packed rough-metal, if using a fixed function renderer and the user wants to tile metal-rough but not tile occlusion. glTF renderers typically work this way. -
3dsmax Quick and Dirty Workflow Tips!
I read a lot in forums, people asking about things that are very easily done and they are either looking in the wrong direction or they are hidden so deep that you can't just spot them out easily. On top of that.. not many really mention them in tutorials! These will be very useful especially for people who start getting… -
Re: Can Substance painter upscale from 2k to 4k when exporting?
Hi! You can work in a lower resolution for better performance but then export the textures with a higher resolution. For texturing landscapes or large surfaces check out the polycount wiki for techniques and use the forums search function to find related threads. A simple approach to reduce visible repetition on large…
