Re: From Blendshapes to Bones
Alright, so this is what I was able to do in Maya, and it worked very well. I created a bunch of Rivets (attached a locator/dummy to the center particular face). I then made a skeleton consisting of a root/head bone, and then a bone for each locator (and extra ones for the jaw, eyes, etc). I Position(point) Constrained… -
[WIP] Overwatch Widowmaker Fanart Skin
Hello to my fellow polycounters! I’ve been working on a character in the evenings after my day-job, in hopes of pushing my portfolio forwards. In the past I’ve either had a fairly generalist portfolio, or the chosen designs were not visually strong. I’ve reflected a lot lately, and decided to push forwards with a stylized… -

Re: UV Game - Weak: Maya, Planar Mapping, and Maintaining Proportion
Another quick way, one that I use pretty frequently, is to: 1.Planar project whatever side I'm working with. 2.Polygons->Unitize those faces. 3.Sew together what you want. 4.Polygons->Unfold option box. Local solver, set constraint to vertical. Apply. Set constraint to horizontal. Apply. The unitize makes sure that when… -
Re: Maya // Rigging : how to create the leg's orientation?
Not sure if creating a Cube at the hips and Orient Constraining the joint to the Cube is the way to go. Try this instead. Skip the Cube and create a ikHandle right away instead, make sure it is a RP (rotate plane) ikHandle. Now create whatever object, for example a Locator. Place the new object in front of the leg, at the… -
Re: Slide Edge Equivilent/script in Max?
If you try to move a large selection of edges with constraints, yes, they can occasionally go haywire with multiple edges. Normally when doing HP modeling if I just can't get a large selection of edge loops to go correctly, I will simply use the constraints and move a handful of the verts at a time constrained to edges. As… -
Re: Couple Of issues
Not sure why constraints wouldn't work. Make sure you do the selection in the correct order (constrained object needs to be selected last). Might also want to check the hypergraph to see your connections; if you get some weird cycling connections, things may break and not work as expected. So for example, if you get… -
Re: Sketchbook: Frank Polygon
Subdivision sketch: No. Really, it's all the same. In some ways angular shape intersections are just curved intersections without curves and curved shape intersections are just angular intersections without corners. Both curved and square shapes can be joined to curved surfaces using the same basic loop routing strategies.… -
Re: Rigging a weapon to two hands
Okay, I've run into another problem that I can't figure out. The orientation constraints don't work exactly as planned because the wrists axises are oriented differently than the weapon root's axises, so when I rotate the weapon up and down (say on the Y axis), the hand rotates toward and away from the body (also on it's… -
