Welcome to my Polycount Sketchbook! DAY 53 of 180 (Topology) - Today, I resumed working on my latest 3D model and tried out different options to improve its look. While searching for inspiration and guidance, I stumbled upon a tutorial by Josh Gambrell that really caught my attention. However, I didn't want to just copy…

Thujone, the supposed active chemical in absinthe, is a GABA antagonist and, while it can produce muscle…
the "highlights" are really a side-effect of how SSAO works. Yes one could take care of it and remove it, but as mentioned, it does add more contrast to the shading...

Seeking a 3D Graphic Artist and or 3D Rendering Artist for a project that involves a 3D Model, Rendering and Animation of an expanding (telescoping) Recreational Vehicle mounted on top of a trailer with Solar Panels on the roof. The recreational vehicle will include windows, doors and a simple interior design with a…
Found more issues, or my stupidity, don't know which. I had a go at creating a "car". When I put the windscreen in it rendered everything "through" it transparent. The body is a box on to which I placed a rectangle with a grid/mesh texture. I can see through the grid, but I can also see through the bottom of the box to the…
[ QUOTE ] EDIT: here is the refpic I used. After looking at it I assume the whole red marked part does move back?[/image] [/ QUOTE ] After doing a quick google search, I'm pretty sure that's a Winchester Model 1892 or 1894 (or possibly an even later model), which is a bit different than the Model 1873 that I modeled.

Michael and Trevor truly feel like long term best friends. They fight, but they also listen and respond to one another. Trevor calls Michael out on bullshit once,…
