3 day 3D intro seminar
Hey everyone, I work at a Private High School doing mainly IT work, however the leadership found that I do a lot of 3D in my spare time and asked if I would present a 3 day basic into into 3D development (for games). I accepted and I will be using Blender. Since these kids are 14-18, and 3 days (ie, 3 class periods of 50… -
Re: Retoplogising Floating Geometry - Help Appreciated.
Yea you want to avoid doing the left example, and have the topology match so it deforms properly, like in the example on the right. -

Re: [WIP] Demon Hunter (Feedback/Critique Appreciated)
Hi! I'd note the couple of seams currently on the head would show up when using detail maps (unless masked).

Re: Current games console wars are strange?

Specifics matter. Age and gender are… -

I see a gereral diffuse light but not clear light source influencing the scene, nor strong shadows. The final image should be well exposed. Try to get a good result in render directly, then tweak a little in PS.… -
