Re: Adaga
I agree with the previous comments that there could be some cutback to the geometry for sure. Though I wouldn't cut back too far otherwise you could lose some nice curves in the silhouette. I'm not 100% on the metal texturing. It looks okay maybe for something stylised but I still think that it could benefit from having… -

Re: Job "On Hold" Status
Definitely a possibility. Last company I applied to for on-site staff position before going exclusively freelance took forever to call me back. I passed the interview phase (an ex co-workert who was working there told me I should've gotten a callback). Long story short, there was a change of management. Company got sold.… -
Re: I am the only one who notice the stagnation in 3d software development!
One thing I've definitely noticed is that even the most technically versed artists can sometime become completely blind to their own assumptions. I think the Halo2/Pavlovich talk is an example of that. By focusing so much on trying to automate linear steps at all costs using a bruteforce approach, crucial aspects of art… -
Re: L O S T
Actually, my theory about the candidates still kinda holds. So, it may be to candidates to replace Jacob AND candidates for their game. Because, if someone succeeds in becoming good without Jacob's intervention, then maybe that's who qualifies as his replacement. The only flaw in that part of my theory, is my theory that… -
Re: Occupy Wall St
Oh... oh that's lovely... Never would of happened if Phil Gramm (R-Texas) & Jim Leach (R-Iowa) hadn't killed the Glass Steagall act that kept those two institutions separate. It never would of allowed for mortgage backed securities and quite possibly we would have avoided this entire mess... At least a lot of dead loans… -
Re: You Sunk My Battleship
Jackblade. Its not really that I don't trust you. I have no reason to distrust you. But I had to look. I thought "isn't that the guy that did Alien?" Like. Really. Ridley Scott? So I just had to run a search and see for myself. The first thing on Google is like "Worst Idea Ever.. Ridley Scott to do Monopoly movie" Also… -
Re: [WIP] Aztec/Mayan Dagger
a couple things you could try for that chiseled looked -- just go in with slash brush or clay buildup and very messily cut in your peaks and valleys. Run tool>geometry>clay polish with sharpness slider set pretty high a few times. Clay polish does mask the edges it creates so you can use that mask or clear it afterwards.… -
Re: Why We Sleep - read this if you are sleeping less than eight hours a night
Yup, been there done that, a pretty high octane environment for sure. In my younger days, one 'fond' sleep deprived memory occurred during a ginormous multinational exercise (K89) involving land, sea and air forces from a number of NATO and ANZUS aligned nations, largest military deployment since WW2 the country had seen.… -
Re: FINISHED : Durga, Hindu Goddess
Ok, after much experimentation here is the pipeline for fur textures: Zbrush -- polypaint the hipoly model (tip -- brush > automasking > colorMask is extremely useful for blocking in color without messing up stripes). Fiber mesh a short fur layer which is mostly uniform. Fibermesh draws color from polypaint. Fibermesh a…
