Re: Noobs: Starting from the ground up.
Thanks you all. Also, I"ll concide to the still life thing. My 'happy spot' is anime. Sometimes I have trouble just believing in myself. So when I can draw something for fun and pull it off well its a thrill. It's a whole different ballgame here. I acknowledge that. So with that I will start posting things that people in… -

Re: Simple image viewer?
Depends on the modeling application. Ideally you would have two monitors. If limited to one monitor, then I generally load the image into the 3d modeler itself. For maya, it would be on a plane I can access easily, or with Blender (very good for pure modeling) you have an image viewer built into the application itself.… -
Re: Low poly hands?
[ QUOTE ] Just as an interesting side-thought - who do you think was the "first person" to model hands? Did he get some help from an almighty being who whispered the perfect technique in his ear? [/ QUOTE ] Adrian Carmack, ball fist Quake hands! Of course he didn't have any tutorial to begin with because he already was a… -
Re: Modeling from an angled concept...
A lot of the time perspective concepts have flaws, things that would just be impossible to do in 3d, concept artists tend to use a lot of cheats to make things look cool when drawing persp concepts, esp if it didnt start as a blockout mesh. So having a rough side/front view(s) is pretty important, you're not any better of… -

Re: Zbrush Active Subtool Transparency
It's indeed in the Draw Menu. Set Floor Fill Mode to 3 (next to the Floor XYZ icon in the Draw Menu) . Then using the (now active because of fill mode 3) Edge Enhance Factor slider, you can change the gradient shading of your subtools inner-out. And they'll become partially of fully transparent (only a thin edge visible).… -

Re: Retro Arcade
blankslatejoe: The sound is not emulated due to the time constraints of our development combined with the huge optimisation that comes with not emulating the sound. The emulator handles all the processing internally and allows output of raw pixel data, we then simply map and update a texture with those new pixel values and… -
Re: Need Advice
Do you have any skills in 2d art and figure drawing? Unfortunately, and it might not be the best critique to hear, but it seems like the best way for you to understand how to model organic shapes is to take a step back and practice some 2d drawing. I feel that for people trying to get into 3d character modeling, having a…
