Re: Seriously thinking on buying a new computer, need you advice!
Ok, just to clarify, memory is RAM. What you're referring to is hard drive space. I know it's hard to grasp some of this abstract terminology. What do you mean to imply by saying you'd prefer buying new rather than upgrade? Are you looking for a pre-built PC or just getting all new components? If you want to build a new… -
Re: What scripts/plugins have you bought?
Thank you so much @Fansub for the detailed write up! This kind of info is invaluable :smile: I'm especially surprised by how much you said you were able to make from such a small number of relatively inexpensive scripts, I honestly didn't think the market was big enough to pull in anywhere near those numbers. If you don't… -
Re: Do you use elbow bones?
Missed this... Opps Skinning in general doesn't react well to changes in geometry (below skin). Above skin it handles it pretty well but then some exporters don't like other modifiers on top of skin so you are risking it working fine in max but not after exporting, so typically you have to redo skin, which isn't as painful… -

Oh wait you guys don't do that in England. :D I guess you should move to the USA. where you can sue places like Mc Donald for making you fat after you ate there healthy burgers and fries everyday for over 20 years.

Re: how do you use reference photos correctly?
I think you are using the reference incorrectly in that you are not using it as reference, you are using it as a blueprint. As said, you have to approximate. You also have to understand the many variables that can change the way a person appears. If you wanted to match this image precisely, you'd have to have the exact… -
Re: You know what really grinds my gears???
Group punishments. Maybe its just the fact I'm in the military, but it can be related any workplace or anything. ONE dumb fuck does something stupid and then we all get fucked on. It fucking pisses me off. 'One of you keeps coming back drunk and yelling and waking us up. Therefore, none of you have leave.' Here's an idea,… -
Re: How do you get better at drawing?
when i feel like i'm not able to do something well, i just do it over and over and over with references, and always analyzing what i did wrong so it can be improve during the nth attempt. Draw 10 things a day, or 1 thing a day, but do it every day for a year. Or pick a month and every day draw 5-10 of those things. I spent… -
Re: Do you really want to work in 3D indutry

Re: Do you take breaks?
I have to take breaks, I will start developing soreness in my shoulder if I don't, simply from overuse. The feeling you're describing took me a long time to deprogram myself from, having other hobbies and other experiences will help your art and health in the long run. Now if you really have to grind do you have to make… -
Do you use Maya's lighting?
So a fairly simple question, just if you are rendering out a scene to make it look nice and what not would you use maya's mental ray and lights that you can create in maya?
