I really love how her face is looking. I'll just comment on the cards as that's my jam. Looks like you've got some good placement going on so far but I think the textures could be improved. So far, they're all kind of 'samey' and the best way to get variety is to add some negative space (in red) - this will help add depth…
Hey guys the pc i had just blew up. But i was working on a gun model that i really liked. I removed hdd from old pc and put in new pc but now my graphic card cant handle 3ds max 2014 (which was on old pc) so i cant even open the max file anymore. (max 2012 on new pc) its a small file only 2 mb If someone who has 3ds max…
One solution would be to ignore Youtube and click-thirsty 'content-creators' as much as you can. I'm fully armored when I go on the net and those 'security' whatever bot-detection BS filters do catch me from time to time no matter the settings. And if I ever come across the guy who came up with captcha's and makes me click…
To echo some of the above : - Be excellent at creating highpoly models, both sculpted and as manually crafted geo - Be excellent at creating ingame meshes - Be excellent at UVs and baking. - Also pick a 3D CAD software like Fusion, Moi3D or Plasticity. And then things will vary from one project to another. Honestly not…
Cool project! It seems like you have some AI images on your ref board (not sure since low res). I always recommend people to avoid using "AI references", those are almost always garbage. Especially when it comes to anything robotic/hardsurface. As you said yourself this robot is very iconic, there are tons of references…
I use CAD for specific parts of meshes I make. For example a lock, a hinge, a weirdly shaped engine part, etc. You can knock that stuff out very quickly in programs like Rhino with flawless booleans and fillets. Then export to your modeling app (assuming it can import them ... I use Max and Modo, so they can) and use them…
You can find pure CAD modeling positions in the US as well. I would really recommend learning 3D CAD - SolidWorks/Inventor/CATIA (given your artistic background, the first two would probably be easiest). Parametrics are where the industry is now; it allows you to make a model, then go back and edit a feature and have the…
Thanks Eric! Appreciate the feedback :D I'm keen on the skin colour, so I'll see what I can do with the body to make it fit. I'm thinking unlit colour with painted-in lighting for this iteration, with a stylised rim light like below. Just need to figure out how to execute it...
My turn!! My turn!! It's like having a car and being able to fill it with gas any where you want. Then you get a newer car from the same manufacturer and when you go to fill the gas at some random gas station, you find out that the gas you want to put it doesn't work till you put in gas that the manufacturer wants you to…
