Re: Turtle Animation
Since my last post I have been extremely busy researching how to create a rig (as this is actually the first rig that I have created in Maya), actually making the rig and creating the textures for the model. I started by reading Animation Methods: Rigging Made Easy by David Rodriguez and Rig It Right! by Tina OHailey,… -

Re: Show your hand painted stuff, pls!
Hey CoD67, seems like you have a good general idea for the wood, but there are a few parts which can use some work. Instead of copy pasting from the tutorial, I'll suggest reading through part of Vertex. It's an excellent place for any kind of tutorial by really cool artists.

Re: Cliffside Village WIP

Re: Character Model

Start creating anatomicaly correct base models using online guides and learning anatomy. Once you practice this enough, things… -
Re: Crap artist can't get job, whines about it
lol , are you sure you didn`t go to my school? EXACTLY the same story here. that said, it never really bothered me much. I never had the illusion that uni assignments alone get me far. 99% of what I know comes from reading tutorials, forums and researching industry workflows - I dont think many of my tutors ever heard of… -
Re: New to max - learning to uv unwrap?
I think the help file and tutorials included in 3dsmax are going to be a great resource and probably the first place you'll want to look/search. Main menu > Help > Tutorials > Search for Unwrap and check out "using unwrap UVW". Its full of useful info and a helpful walk through. F1 brings up the help doc. Not the same as… -
Maya or XSI
Greetings guys; I have learned and practicing both programs for 3d modeling but I wanted to figure out which one should I stick to and pursue further practice and learning.
