Re: Anyone want to make this UI?
another take on this subject would be to improve learning the shortcuts the way they are. You can always invest some time to customize the shortcuts of the application, but in many cases a major flaw of almost all applications is the bad design of shortcut customization/ understand and learning ability. Silo is a nice… -

Re: A question about retopology, high poly characters and low poly ones...
That is a really good point. If you have a character with a costume it helps to break the figure down Into what substance painter calls sets. You can use the same strategy with any baking package. The advantage with substance is you can have your separate meshes in one document if they are named correctly. What determines… -
Re: Animation question, feel like an idiot...
When animating the character through the scene instead of doing an in place walk cycle it helps to have IK on the feet so you can lock the feet in world space and keep it from slipping around as you move the root node/COG.

Re: Wrap texture around a helmet (possible with zbrush?)
Thank you for taking the time to record it as it will save time for everyone :) It is indeed a misunderstanding, mostly coming from using jargon too loosely.

Re: DeepPaint3d----tuts, or general advice? Good/bad?
I once contacted the customer support of them for more information like PDF`s comparisons ect. but there was not much to offer. I know deep paint 3d back from the max 4 days (Outcast from appeal was done with it) so very old- and it seems they never really upgraded much ( a sad thing imo). Someone here at polycount… -
Re: Modeling/Rigging Hands
Fingers are a snap to rig they're just like elbows and knees, the thumb can be a little problematic and wrists are a pain in the ass but twist bones help that out a lot. But it all depends pretty heavily on the underlying geometry if your working with a mesh that was not designed to move you might as well pull the plug,… -
