Re: Accuracy International - AS50
Racer445 thanks for the feedback:) I think you have a fair point. What I used to get the materials was going to my reference images and make a few tiling textures of clean parts that defined different materials. but as the image was slightly grainy plus the fact that I might have gone to easy on defining the difference… -
Re: Max vs Maya
I have to say I agree with Prof420 on max's face-selection, despite his silly nickname. I've run into face-selection issues the few times I've used Maya, but I can't judge an application on that, as it may have been me. Max 7 definately has some issues with *not selecting unseen faces rather than the one that's RIGHT… -
Re: misc. maxscript UV scripts/tools
there is a fucked up typo in maxscript [php]ao_bake.fileType = GetDir #image + "_renderToClipboard3.bmp";--appearently the target filename/path[/php] its the part of the script that tells the RTT job of the AO pass where to save the file. Appearently it defines the filename instead of the extention. There is a attribute… -
Re: Halloween Akali
It's looking toylike because of how stiff the Tpose is. For reference, it reminds me of the early Star Wars acton figures. Locked knees, straight as stick arms and legs. What you really want, and what feel better for a Tpose in game art is something like this: Get the proportions, gesture of the forms, and the way the… -
Re: Modeling or animating?
Well, looking at your portfolio there doesn't seem to be any animation in it. If you had a passion for it I would have expected you to have had a go by now. I think your modelling skills look pretty strong and there's alot of potential. Having said that you may well have a great talent for animation. So, going to school… -

[3DS Max] Hint for modeling/texturing a futuristic racetrack?
Hi everyone! I just found a similar thread started some months ago about this same subject, but it was about XSI... So, I'm modeling a futuristic race track too, but using 3DS 2008 (do you think it's too outdated?). I want it to be similar to Wipeout and F-Zero, with loopings, "corkscrews", and all those headache… -
Re: Bull Zombie
Hi! Congrats on finishing the project :+1: Presentation-wise, I think currently the lighting doesn't help to sculpt the model's features. Perhaps start with a 3 point lighting setup. When choosing the background, I'd be careful with contrast and think about how it affects the character lighting. I think white background… -
Re: Which PBR is really physically based?
I am not an engineer, so take the following with a hefty dose of salt. As I understand it, your typical PBR shader is made of a collection of functions/algorithms that define the way light is reflected from the surface. These functions are commonly referred to as a BRDFs. Typically, a PBR shader will consist of a separate… -
Re: Courses for sculpting realistic face (hesitating)
In term of pure face fundamental excluding the expression I believe the next coming book (in december) will be more suited to my skills needs (form of the head and neck). I would like to KNOW what special feature make a face an asian face, african, old, young, what special landmarks creat that specific ethnic and age…
