Granted Sage, it was only talking to some friends again about how bad it still is that got be fired up, and its not something I really wanted to turn a blind eye too... infact, i continue to send people here (i find it just as shocking that they havent already worked their way here themselves but yea, maybe my help is…
woo man I totally forgot to reply to this thread.... I did read everything way back when and understood it all, thanks for the crits.. (and your right McIlroy Im well off pro level, but you know pratice pratice pratice) anyway NEW STUFF!!! very much a work in progress so yeah....
UPDATE 9 It's been some time, but here is a new update! What held me down the most was that I wanted to ditch the downloaded controller for something I constructed using tutorials, so I practice some code + know what's there. So I finally did it! Then it was pretty quick to setup navmesh and start on the basic AI that is…
@Boosted24v No shame in using Blender at all. It has it's own issues but it's still a decent piece of software. Especially considering the price. Overall dimensional accuracy is something that's going to vary from project to project. Everything doesn't have to be perfect it just has to be close enough or reasonable enough.…
Some good advice given here for sure. I was in your boat a several years ago. I graduated from school and floated around for a while not knowing what to do about myself. I only got out of that mess when I got it through my thick skull that I needed to focus and work harder. From looking at everything and reading your…
First things first: Keep in mind I'm still a junior artist myself, so take all that I write with a grain of salt. This new model is far better than the first, but still let's get back to the beginning? What I miss (and that's extremely common when talking with beginners) - what is the purpose of the model? Is it going to…
I just want to add to this with my experience at uni, sorry if i repeated anyone else, I didn't read everything... I started learning a little bit before I went, and the course was aimed at beginners. All they taught was how to use software. But even though uni didn't provide much in the form of education though, it did…
Well there is a lack of knowledge about how topology works but that comes with time, as for the objects themselves, I think you should either 1: go stylized or 2: go 100% realistic, putting it in between just ends up looking muddy and disorganized. A little exercise I do is when I'm making a weapon, imagine all the…
So this is going to be sort, and honest, and a bit hard to hear. if you want more in-depth advice just let me know. This should work for you too David, well the principle of it anyhow... and this is really easy to do! look at your portfolio. Now compare what you have on your site to someone that is already in the industry…
@Adityedit: Thank you for your comment. There sure are great contributions in this contest. But, even if I don't win, participating is still valuable to me as it has given me an idea for my next film. In the interest of time, I am going to show you setups in iClone of scene 2 and 3 of my cinematic and then a clip of the…
