Thanks for the comments and crits everyone, much appreciated. [ QUOTE ] How many polys is the tank? Modeling all those struts in those grilles on the back seems a bit pointless... [/ QUOTE ] The polycount is 5500. I totally agree with you about the struts, but I'm a poly whore I like to model in details rather than rely on…
Just a few quick suggestions for you before I go to bed: - selectively mask off areas and do edge loop subdivisions to detail localised areas (eg, face can always do with a higher subdivision than, say, the inner thigh. - for hard edges, I usually try laying down your main bulk, then growing out the mass on the sides of…
Jesse, next time let me throw some things on your list too ;) This year didn't hold many surprises for me. I bought most of my gifts for myself, prior to Christmas. I'm the only source of income for my house, so usually my wife doesn't have much money. When I give her money to buy me gifts, she'll spend most of it on other…
I don't know anyone named whitey, though I do know a few guys that run around calling themselves Aryan (among other things), true they dont complain about rap lyrics in particular (well as far as I know, they usually wont say more than one or two words to me (usually screamed near incoherently from a moving vehicle))…
Hi. I am vvalkyr, and I wanted to start by stating that its my very post here, so sorry if I do some stuff wrong. I come here looking for some feedback and critique on my latest work "abandoned temple" that I worked really hard on. Difference to my other stuff is that this time I made most important assets myself…
So I was recently realizing alot of Polycounters who I thought were way up in the food chain and alot older then me were around the same age range. And I got to thinking of fun things people like to do. And usually like most 20 something year olds its going out and having a Good drink. Now normally my dad and I use to…
Here comes what probably looks like a stupid question to many: I know that usual practice is to model as quads, keeping it as that through texturing and normal map transfers, and that when the asset is moved into the engine it is automatically triangulated, or sometimes manually, but either way it is triangulated for use…
Hey, i´ve upgraded to windows 10 recently and i am having some troubles with my 13" cintiq touch controls. whenever i try to do some touch gestures for pinchzoom, rotate or pan the pivot point for all these controls seems to be outside of of the visible area of my cintiq. This results in really unusable controls through…
hi so i've decided some months ago to seriously start working on my art fundamentals and i spent this last month trying to get better and to cover subjects that i usually avoid (and by usually i mean my whole life) things like perspective, color and light etc. And i realised that i've always "managed" to draw and to make…
My 19" CRT just broke. Was a damn fine monitor but I guess I got my money's worth since I had it in use for ~7 years. I'm currently using a crappy 17" monitor with a nasty problem with the blue channel which means I can't do any painting (its picture is as bad as TV so my eyes are starting to hurt just looking at it). So…
