I'm starting a wip thread since i've been working on this for 2-3 days. It's Aqua Knight by Yukito Kishiro, a manga comic: I'm no big manga fan, but this is one of the freshest and most original universes I've come across so far. very light-hearted and well-designed with detail put into every aspect. I just love how it's…
Hello, I currently have a particle source emitting from the middle of the scene. It uses a vortex force to swirl round in a tornado fashion, the diameter of the swirl increasing indefinitely. My question is, how do I keep the particle vortex at a fixed diameter once it has reached a certain point (i.e. third frame/frame…
Its a nice sculpt but I'm not really into the idea,once again, women are overly sexualized for the male perspective, especially in scenes involving dragons.
When it comes to lighting if you compare your histogram to your reference you will see that you have a lot more darks/contrast. Most likely due to the shaded empty forest space to the left. Once you fix your composition it's going to help you get the values closer. But also please note that the film shipped with higher…
"Drawing from the shoulder" means that you lock your wrist, and all rotation should happen in your elbow and shoulder. It forces you to take bigger more deliberate strokes. Mechanically, you should be getting smoother arcs with it (just think how many joints are at work when you use you fingers and wrist). It's also less…
I'd follow back up with the lead again once more if your last e-mail was sent more than a week ago. Just ask simply if you're still being considered the postion or if you should pursue other options. They're pretty much forced to respond at that point and either say they're no longer interested, or they're still interested…
[ QUOTE ] I really doubt it will be much different working on a Blockbuster movie [/ QUOTE ] Well, speaking to friends at places like Sony and Digital Domain, I believe it can be and is for the most part. My reasoning behind that belief is the 'cg supervisor' model. In film and fx, animators and modelers might eventually…
careful not to fall into the trap of creating what your brain thinks is correct. you've got some forms in here that are a little strange and it looks like you might not be using reference, or you're probalby going from a propotion sheet with little detial. i know it's tempting to think that the knee, for example, just…
the middle east has been a playground for western governments in hot and cold war for centuries. if some so-called super-power played around with your society for the sake of their very own interests, how would you feel about it? these people are desperate in that their political and military power is virtually…
Again, we have now tools that give us more freedom with shapes and we're not forced to take care of shape and topology at the same time like 10 years ago. I think it would be more clever to sculpt a basic shape with sculptris or even real clay (and drawing) then ask about topology. I'm not saying topology isn't important,…
