Re: Guns You Own
Chamber-empty carry (sometimes called Israeli carry) used to be somewhat common but is heavily advised against by professional firearm instructors in current day theory, for a variety of reasons... mostly response time. Most modern handguns have redundant internal safeties to prevent the firing pin dropping on a chambered… -
FuturePoly ; Prereqing/Preparing self?
Hey guys, so I'm about to graduate Highschool and within the upcoming months I was lucky enough to have a family member obtain contract work in Seattle and live about 10 blocks from FuturePoly (and to hopefully keep the job throughout the summer). This kind of changed my scenario of my initial approach towards upper… -
Re: What's my weakest skill ?
The guys above have some very good advice. I would add that it seems like you are using the exact same basemesh for each female piece, which is a huge handicap when it comes to learning. I might be wrong and I apologize if I am, but the anatomy is apparent in the fingers and general shape, and the topology all reads the… -
Re: Nurbs + Polys
If you're asking why don't they use other apps in their pipeline? I can think of 3 maybe 4 main reasons. 1) They have seasoned artists who poly model quickly, efficiently and give amazing results already. Why handicap them by forcing them to use software and work flows that they are not familiar with when they can already… -
Re: Claffy D's Deepest of Grindlifts
Ok, cool. Not sure if you're looking for any critiques on this stuff but there are some weird things going on with some of the objects in the collage.

Re: Too old for games. Just me?
Many thanks for the long list of replies! I think it's maybe a bit of an unfair complaint of many of you to say that games these days are more shallow. It's hard to deny that AAA FPS games aren't at the forefront of innovation, depth, complexity, difficulty or any other good things, but that's not the place where you… -
Re: Dominance War VI
StephenVyas - "As much as I love animation... This is like stretching a piece of Super Sculpey in so many directions... sooner or later you'll see holes in the quality of content. This type of promotion can have the opposite effect of gaining attention. I'd pass on the event if this is all I saw about it." Yes, the video… -
Re: Hatred and you!
John: I think you're running into what I'd refer to as "Ale and Whores Syndrome". I love the worlds of Dungeons and Dragons, and other pen and paper RPG's. I used to want to play with my friends, run campaigns even, or join someone else's. The problem was "Ale and Whores Syndrome". All the players wanted was to beat some…
