Re: Normal Mapping Alignment
Turbosmooth/connect is a better way to handle the corners. If I had been doing more modeling instead of animation over the last 6mo I probably would have suggested that because I work with turbosmooth on top of Edit Poly, and toggle it on and off (little light bulb) to see how it smooths. The main problem you had with… -
Re: Improving my 3D modeling
All good tips. As for the triangle fans at the corners (as opposed to the cylinders), they are fine like that in my book. The alternative would be very long thin triangles.

Re: Increasing Creativity and the "Artistic Eye?"
Same author, but this one has the nice art. Sorry about the link, not sure what's up with it. I know what you mean. A lot of the discussion kind of substantiated some vague notions I've had for years, but mostly it made me realize that I should put more trust in some of my natural instincts about what looks good, as I… -

Re: Scavenger Redux
Been working on the color for this guy. I'm not sure if these will be the final colors for this guy; I'm going to try a number of schemes once I've got him more finished. He looks kind of flat right now, but I'm hoping that the spec map will help fix that. I'm also going to get rid of the suspenders pouches and replace…
