@Alex_J thank you very much for your explanation. Your answer helped me identify the issue with the phong shading happening with Cinema 4D yesterday. I'm beginning to see the importance of using real-world examples to practice on. @frankpolygon thank you for the welcome to the forums! My apologies for having posted in the…
Regarding the navigation: What you have now is fairly functional but incredibly boring. For example, the text "Misc" doesn't interest me at all, yet it contains awesome art. Why not go with a layout that uses labeled images for categories, so I will already have an idea of what "misc" contains? I've also heard that the…
I think once I finish some new work I am gonna re make my entire site. I thought I had kept it simple but it is REALLY easy to over complicate fast. I studied many types of site since I created my current abomination and it seems to me that the best sites are simple and I mean REALLY simple. Take these as an example…
Not too bad! The one issue that sticks out to me is scale. For example, in your reference the top of the door lines up with the top of the cabinet. Residential doors are around 203 cm tall (in the US). Your average person is about 160 cm tall. This means the cabinet in the reference is reachable by a person of average…

Holy Moly!: It's like xmas :) Nice of him to expose himself to radiation fer the sake of art/science research! ( example pics of radiation death from the early days of retail shoe sale flouroscopy machines are pretty gruesome ! ) If u were going in for surgery anyway however... someone should create a:…
Ok so I'm currently working on something that requires me to figure out a face topology and pretty much stick to it, and the end result will be triangulated. I always see head topology based on quad edge flow, but what about for triangulated meshes? When you triangulate an even quad mesh you have uneven triangles, new…
Hello ! The example with the hands is really as straightforward and self-evident as it can be. If a modeler on a team made the model the way shown on the right, for a bake supposed to capture smooth skin/organics, it simply would have to be redone after removing these hard edges because they are not only unnessary, but…
[ QUOTE ] An old trick is to use alpha planes for the profile. Could work for you. I'll try to dig up an example. Ah OK, here it is, a 10.7 MB pdf: http://www.ericchadwick.com/examples/tutorials/low_polygon_technique_for_next_generation_systems.pdf Saved this awhile back, don't know where I got it from. Anyone know Jolyon…
@Boosted24v Not a problem, you're welcome. You're definitely on the right track. it's just about finding a process that works well with your available tool set and getting those fine details down. There's many different ways to approach creating the base mesh. Some artists prefer non-destructive workflows and others are…
