It can't be one flat poly surface because: 1) It's not a flat surface, it's a round surface, and it must be composed of either triangles or quads. Having it be one circle shape would make it an ngon. Models full of ngons get messy and can lack a proper flow. 2) You need some extra loops to make sure a subsurf operation…
Couple of loops I've been working on, bit of a break from the usual. http://www.4shared.com/file/141276398/e67f1ef8/Tranquil.html http://www.4shared.com/file/141276397/76c00369/Dub_room_loop.html There's a play symbol half way down the page instead of having to download.
@hawken yep you are right i would have done this when texturing him, but i only colorized the given polies and the next loop doesn't work all the way around so i only colorized the working one :) @crazymat: way better @east: thats cool
Thanks Swizzle. Hair would be great, planning to add later :) Here's the wire screengrab.. http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/3721/flatfacewire.jpg It shows areas where edge loops appear to stop suddenly, but it's just nutty blender, or some sort of videocard issue Great head Ruz, killer texturing work! :) :thumbup:
his medal thingie is coming from the shoudlers not his neck http://www.vnn.vn/vnn4/pic_story/story6-pocahontas/picture/p2.jpg http://www.geocities.com/TheTropics/Resort/4986/govrat.gif i think a little more flow (more loops) in his hair wouldn't hurt it's pretty edgy compared to his face
i did that in college when i was trying to figure out better ways to model stuff. Worked in my favor, since some chicks thought it was a real tattoo and later wanted me to draw on them. horray for studying how to make proper boob loops on a "model." :) was a pretty useful study, only need to do a few though!
@Marshal Banana - At the time I took the picture they were held together by a piece of cardboard at the back and loops of rope around my arms (under my pits) I'm switching the back connection to the rope. It's crunchtime with halloween only two days away :), hopefully I'll b finished by friday afternoon. Turned a couple of…
Working on a hi-poly pillar for the scene I'm working on. Obviously this is only a portion of it(seeing as how I don't have the symmetry on), and the turbosmooth is just on for show right now, making sure my loops are right before I take it into Mudbox for some dirtying up. The metal plates at top and bottom are floating…
\ you guys can fix it yourself, just remap your popup menu to something other than right mouse.. its creates an infinite loop and its actually a windows bug and only happens with right click. i asked pixologic about this when they were in house. he said the best fix right now is remap the shortcut and in the next release…
The magazine release is on the right side like on (early?) FAMAS models. I also didn't model the FAMAS because I don't like the rifle, only the buttstock :) The sling, I can't explain, I forgot about the sling loop (it was 4am), and I think the final outcome looks pretty snazzy, I have some ideas for the textures and I…
