Re: Portfolio Feedback Please
Nice! I'm self taught as well, you've done pretty good so far. Was the rolex from Pixelbaun's tutorial? I made a watch just like it, following that tutorial. There are 12 images in the watch project, cut it down to 3. Same with the truck. You show wireframes on some project, but I'd like to see wireframes on all, plus… -
Re: Advice on modelling [3DS Max]
An example is this overhang roof. If you deleted those edge loops from the middle, the model would still look the same but be using less geometry. The fundamental thing to keep in mind is that your model is really nothing but vertices. And a vertex is three numbers (0,0,0) that define a point in 3d space. So, the fewer… -
Re: Gerbera Daisies
Here's an update to what I've now got. I have not added the stamen yet; I've spent some time reworking the diffuse and ended up using an Sub Surface Scattering material to get some more depth. I think the color vibrancy is much better now. My next step is to get the unbloomed (word?) stamen in there and rework the small… -
Re: m1911a1 WIP
oh, silly me :P here's the low poly is there like a rule-of-thumb when it comes to uv islands/smoothing groups? the only part that is NOT giving me an issue right now is the slide, because it has a similar shape to the receiver of the Ithica m37 that millenia's tutorial has you make (the whole shape top, left, right and… -
Re: [TF2] How to create weapon skins from scratch?
Well thank you guys for all your help, but I got my map using that big image tutorial I found. See, the issue was I didn't want to create a whole new map. After following the tutorial on the Steam forums, I quickly figured out that thats what I was doing. So I stopped. I wanted to get an image of the pre-existing map that… -

Re: Blender 2.46
Blender Tutorial #1 The main menu bar is a lie. A LIEEEEE! There is no main menu bar in Blender, and there never has been. What appears to be a menu bar when you start up the program is, in fact, just another Blender window. It just happens to look like a menu bar in that context. In actuality, it is no different from any… -

Re: HLSL magic
there is also "Mental mill - artist edition" which is node-based just like ShaderFX, and comes free with Nvidia's FX Composer 2.0. the app is standalone and can dump shader code, as well. (fx composer itself feels a bit bloated imo) the Cg Tutorial book, eventhough old, has some nice basic stuff. The Cg Manual (in here… -
Re: Low Poly Shoulder Joint Deform Issues Pls Help
Yes, but that is a forearm twist- you will want one of those as well, but this is a shoulder twist, which is not as easy to set up (but just look for tutorials, XSI is good for char setup so I'm sure there are good tuts for it). You NEED a clavicle bone. What is this, 1998? I'm not sure what sort of shoulder setup you have…
