Re: Getting into the gameindustry with blender?
No, what I meant was, if you're this artist that worked with maya all your life you'll still have a 50% chance to end up with a studio that is Max only, which is not unlike the situation where you're a blender-user. But if we look at the numbers, quite a vast majority of people who use max and maya will be amateurs and… -
Ranma 1/2 - Ranma and Akane Busts
I created these two busts after starting the new Ranma 1/2 show on Netflix. They’re modeled to resemble two shots from the original opening! For this project, I used Maya for modeling and rendering, with toon shaders inside Maya to achieve the final look. I then used Substance Painter to create masks and textures for the… -
Re: Is this it?!
[ QUOTE ] Is this how we meet our end? [/ QUOTE ] I doubt it; there always seems to be a small portion of the population that is inexplicably immune to this sort of thing. For example, there's a very small percentage of people who have actually contracted the virus HIV, but their immune system somehow defeats it before it… -
SWG going under
"Sony Online Entertainment today announced its plans to shut down Star Wars Galaxies before the end of the year. The long-running MMO first launched in 2003 and has undergone some big changes over the years. It received several expansion packs, but one update in particular, known as 'New Game Enhancements,' ditched the… -
Re: Elven Cottage
Nice piece! The end scroll from the roof seems like the chunkiest topology, kind of stands out at the moment. Can you add another set of edges there? Bricks feel haphazardly placed, feels really odd to have them sticking out in the middles of the walls. You could try adding a few fallen leaves to the patio to add a little… -
Height map work disappeared... help :(

Saved my stuff (multiple times), went to bed, and now it seems like it's missing. the error says "No output node defined" but I thought my final base material node at the… -
Re: k700 tractor model and texture wip
The tractor is not completely done, but i'm also doing some additional props (the idea is to make it into a diorama scene , not a full env. but like a model with a base and some stuff around , then render a turntable ) For this 'jerry can' i used the node shader an controlmap method , but also 'traditional' painting and… -
Re: no games use coloured specular
I dunno, I've found that even if you trust the people you work with, if they are not constrained by some technical requirements (artists especially) then they will go crazy with stuff that ends up needing more time to optimise out later and that ends up wasting work and time at both ends - theirs for making the really… -
Re: I need smart people to tell me which program I should use to materialize low res polygon models.
PHASE 1: Write a script: Place a sphere at each vert. For each edge of the model, place a stick (extrude a circle along the edge). Chop off an amount from the end of each extruded stick so it intersects the spheres by 1 cm or 3/8 inch (this amount will have to be experimented with to find right amount). Do a boolean… -
Re: Irvin Kershner died (director of Empire Strikes Back)
Yea...but George Lucas wanted to sell more Toys. Empire was by far the best one. Goraaz, "We had an outline and George changed everything in it," Kurtz said. “Instead of bittersweet and poignant he wanted a euphoric ending with everybody happy. The original idea was that they would recover [the kidnapped] Han Solo in the…
