Re: Animation WIP Test
that first step is way off balance. he looks like he's about to fall over before his leg moves. and don't just slide the feet, bring them up and down some, then heel to toe them to plant. move the left foot first. moving your back foot is a little unnatural. Best thing to do is stand up and act it out, it will help a lot.… -
Re: Twitter
I'm glad you guys brought this up. Generally, I'd say the use for Twitter is entirely different from Facebook/MySpace. Don't gawk at the idea and usefulness behind it just because its categorized as a 'social network'. It gives me, you, and anyone in-between, a chance to follow and listen to people that you generally… -
Re: First Thread, Fighting Game characters Update 12-6
W-C, You've caught a few of the concepts of the game from the characters so far, so I must be doing things right. The first guy is expected to be pretty average Fighting Game default guy. The last guy is partnered with the Dominatrix. More details will follow. John_W, thanks for the kind words. There are things about my… -
Re: Glass shaders and objects in maya.
Thats not going to work that well, especially since the labels aren't transparent, or as reflective as the glass. Take your diffuse shader (the one with the brown and labels), and make another one to use for transparency and reflectivity. Make the background brown white, and the labels full black (no text inside). Ramps… -
Re: 3ds Max tool for expediting model export to Valve Source Engine

Re: SG127 Tank
It's not that you grabbed actual reference. It's the fact that the metals aren't appropriate for the tank. Look at the reference I sent you. That metal is not the same metal you used on the tank itself. Look at the grunge and how inappropriate it is. No tank looks like it's been constructed from the same materials as a… -
Re: Masked textures in classic Unreal Tournament
Yeah, I finally solved my problem! The textures have transparency now, but it was quite a hassle. Because it might be of some use to others, I will try to explain what I did to get it to work. I exported the model from Milkshape to UT's Skeletal format (.psk), so I didn't have to animate the model myself and could use the… -
Re: Noobs: Starting from the ground up.
Welcome to the boards. I like Vash as well, it was an interesting series. On the art site of things, you may consider the following: 1) http://wiki.polycount.net/ 2) http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?t=373024 3) While anime is enjoyable and a nice art style, consider branching out into other styles ( often… -
Re: No reply, do i keep emailing?
I agree with kwakkie's crits on your character and the approach you took to applying for a job. Though the character does look very nice, personally I'd mirror the UVs of the hood and cape and stack all the finger UVs on top of one painted finger. Use creative UV mapping and geometry tricks to get asymmetry, instead of… -
Re: Mongol Horse Archer - Another Maquette for the pile
Working in balsa wood is pretty easy. You can cut it with a razor blade. Basicly you have 2 options here: 1. Buy a 4 - 6mm thick balsa wood board and simply cut your bow design out of it then use sandpaper to smooth its edjes (should take about 5 mins to do). The problem with this method is that you will have a curved bow…
