Re: Which software do you hate the most to work with (for whatever reason)?
Zbrush is one of the rare softs that at least trying to be artist friendly notwithstanding its alien UI. The sculpting and brushes are pretty intuitive there after you have ripped through all those UI crazy inventions and replaced its transparent panels and eye sore orange buttons with something neutral . I just don't… -
Re: Why don't big film studios just use Blender?
The thing to remember is that it's not always about matching feature for feature and the out-of-the-box price tag. The more larger VFX studios have now become global businesses, with multiple studios in multiple countries. Core to all that is having a pipeline and framework for making all that work. Studios have… -
Re: Help me buy a new computer for rendering and gaming
Considering a lot of the cool new features packed into UDK require DX11, I think the tipping point where limping along on DX10 cards is quickly approaching. You don't want to wait until games start requiring DX11 since tools and tech lead games by years. EDIT: I agree with EQ, just like processors you end up paying through… -
Re: Leonar3do?
This looks pretty awesome. Maybe for previewing 3d sculpts, it's great. For actual use in production for an artist? It's not going to replace the tools we already use. Even if it was absolutely perfect, it's not going to replace the tactile feedback from a mouse or tablet. Does it show a better representation of the model?… -
Re: there's a new pope!
eh? It's the fact that the church does condemn contraception that people are upset ... they're hardly protesting at the amount of condom usage in the world and wondering why the church doesn't speak up on the issue are they? The argument is most definitely relevant from a Catholic perspective, to lump in it with… -

Hand Painted Speeder - weekend project
I've been doing a lot of PBR stuff and Sub-D so I wanted to mix it up and do hand painted. I decided to do a low poly version of the speeder from the Episode 7 teaser trailer. Not a ton of reference (that I could find) minus a replica at a convention and some screens. Anyway, was a fun weekend. Just screen grabs with a… -
Re: Quake Wars Character Models
I've seen the concepts and replicas of the 2010 soldier getup at trade shows here at the Pentagon. It's not really impressive at all, and considering it's 2006, and they have nothing even close in production for the grunt now, i highly doubt they will meet thier 2010 transformation date. The GRAW example is dead on to what… -

That was close...too close.
On saturdays, my girl and I spend a little time together, dinner and a movie type thing, to relax from the work and school weekday stress. Today we decided to catch a movie...an early showing in fact. Cheaper that way. Then a quick luck at a local pub. After that, my plan was to sit my ass right here and do some hardcore…
