Ok heres the largest most important tip for making anime models (or drawing them for that matter) The anatomical layout of an anime character and a regular realistic human are identical. The face detail is the only significant deviation, along with occasional proportion tweaks for characterization emphasis. Ie longer legs,…
the main things to worry about are 1. build quality/system testing by the oem 2. support 3. updates/upgrades if you just want a mid range system asus would probably be good enough. but if you want to get a workstation with say a GTX680m, 2 hdd, and highend processors then i would never think about asus or alienware/dell.…

So mine arrived today :D just wondered if anyone else picked this up and what they thought of it?

Good quality e-IPS panel, not super high end but much much better than the crappy TN panels you'll get in pretty much anything cheaper. Only 1920x1080 not *1200 though. My wife has one of…
Never been as lost in a game before or since then. Also, Quake 2, all those skins and models. visiting Polycount on 28.8 modem and downloading all of them. Good times.
Ahh thanks so much for the tips on UVing, I really want to improve! The hair looks amazing, love it! Also curious about how it was UVd too. Was wondering if you've seen this model? Might be inspirational! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAdFGWVlk84…
Used the last one (PFFX7N9MNEPL). Thanks!!! Ok, hard game. But fun! lol Few tries got me a high score of 2815 (27 humans, 95 distance and 250 aliens) Scoring seems a little strange. If you do updates, you should change it to something like aliens destroyed 3 x50 for a total of 150 points. Also, the shield in the middle of…
