America, Fuck Yeah!... I have had this idea in my head for a couple years now, I'm sure other people have thought of it but I just wanted to parlay it over to you guys: A government based off of a system where people either watch TV or go to a website, and issues are shown, both sides (or multiple sides) are shown and…
Hey Polycount. So it's been some time since I was last here. Quite a few years actually. I'm here to discuss a topic, hoping it will lead to helping me find my fire again somehow. I'll lead with what's happening. I'm a 3D artist, I've been playing around in that field for several years now. I started when I was 12 years…
This thread is to log my progress of my Portfolio project. The goal of this is to create something worthy of fishing for some freelance 3D or part/full time hire work. I'll be spending at least a month on this project that is my hard deadline for now. The goal is to create a nice pedestal scene with a simple story. My…
Hey guys i was really bored, so i felt like doing some hard surface modeling. I looked for some crazy animal reference(lets call it a fish) and then started modeling away. this is what i have so far. Still not happy, and cant wait to get this one out of the way so i start a new one where i can try some new shapes. anyways,…
I've been meaning to model a frog slash angler fish like character for a while now. Big inspiration is Davy Jones and the idea is that this being lives as a sentinel guard for an ancient underwater civilization. The armor I was going for is sort of a cross between Samurai and Roman with nautilus decorations and think…
I recently started using cryengine 3 and ive got a couple projects lined up. For one i would like to create some custom boids, specifically new birds and fish. Im wondering if anyone who has done this can give me a quick rundown of how to rig the model properly to be used with the existing boid scripts. Also what are the…
Hey, so its been a while since I last posted anything. Had some down time at work and decided to give Blender's sculpt mode a try. First time working with Blender's sculpt mode, second time trying a serious sculpting project.I decided to go back to the angry fish and work that up. I started from a cube and added a couple…
I'll give it a chance. Much like the Holy Land from the first game it's a setting and time period that I only have vague knowledge of so I'll make for a somewhat interesting learning experience. I just hope that they can tie up the tiresome bookending here and just move on with the series without having to kowtow to…
quick concept for a disruptor mount based on a betta-fish. if somebody wants to take it, message me :) Edit: Badcog: I love the beetle concept! it looks great and works really well! Markovnikov: I am sure it does not have to be strictly a bat, and making it more look like one could make the mount look similar to all the…
I would start with going through the process of modeling a character, texturing it, rigging it then animating it. Do simple ones to start. Characters that have less bones to work with. A snake? A Fish? Work through that process as much as you have time to do so. As you complete several characters you will get the feel of…
