What you should try is two overlaid IK chains: the big one for all 3 joints, and one on top for the top 2. The secondary one would have a control at joint 4, which would be linked to joint 3 controlled by the big one; this control would act as an offset from the positions provided by the big chain. I know it sounds a bit…
As others have said, you don't need anything fancy. Previous desk was one of those special ones, was really uncomfortable. The one I have now is basicly just one of those ikea ones like this: http://www.ikea.com/be/nl/catalog/products/S19903730/ + http://www.ikea.com/be/nl/catalog/products/S99903689/ (in black) but I bough…
Check out the wiki page about topology best practices. Your model is not constructed efficiently. This is 101 stuff too broad to give a specific answer. About the tri count -- think about it more in terms of what is the minimum amount of resolution you need to get the quality goal you've set. With the amount of resolution…
So this is my vision, pretty much... I've started blocking out the armor to see what needs to be done. A LOT. And not just what you see here. Straps, pouches, flasks, ect. I wanted to make something beautiful and extraordinary with the details on the clothing and armor. I'm pretty sure this model isn't going to be ready by…

are 3d Noob 101. I suggest you cut 'em, they do nothing for your reel except send noob flares up. She wouldn't lose momentum by doing that, she would keep going...but your animation looks like she hits a brick wall then gets her momentum back. You really need to go back to basics, read all the books again and understand…
So here is an update: I don't know why, but if I open the .smd from the doto website, the wards size is now like your mention, it is comparable to the grid. around 140 generic units in height. So I scale up my model to match it and reset its x-form and attach it to a new created object and delete that temporary object.(to…
Immediate critique: Use the image attachment tool or host the images on a place like imgur or something where you can attach them and immediately embed them into the thread. Actual critique: Football guy's shoulderpads right now either need more reference, or basically need to increase the "awesome" level by about 137%...…
Tempe is a bit more expensive than Chandler probably is, and perhaps more expensive than some of the outlying suburbs, like Mesa or Gilbert. But it certainly isn't the most expensive area of the Valley to buy in, and it sure as hell isn't as expensive as the DC area. Paradise Valley is where all of the rockstars and movie…
