I suffered for over a decade from (treatment resistant) depression and social anxiety because I couldn't get my life in order and couldn't get shit done. I spoke to so many psychologists and tried so many therapies - I lost oversight of how many. Nothing helped, so I gave up on modern western medicine . When I hit absolute…

Hello fellow polycounters; I have been self learning 3ds max and practicing creating my own character. Right now I am at the dead-end and will have to recontruct the head that I am making due to mouth. The mouth was constructed as I wanted it to be but the jawline really made his face look bigger and does not match the…

To do list: Sort out the head proportions and add fine details to the head. Add metal skeletal frame details to the…

The head textures have transparency and are 2-sided, so I created 256 color bmp files and imported them into DXT-3. Finally, there's a 256x512 portrait. lkraan: It's…
Ok no comments so far, I'll take a stab at this. Keep in mind I'm not a character artist either so please don't take my crit too seriously. I'm not sure if this is supposed to be more like a creature or more like a plant. If it's supposed to be like a plant then it's just not reading as a plant to me. Right now it's more…
