Re: I need to help
Well at least it's a reasonable start! Also by the way was it modeled off of a background reference image or concept art? I’ll recommend finishing translating each individual blocked piece, into a high resolution (sub divided high poly) artifact free base mesh which in my opinion believe is the actual core… -

Re: WIP to Finished ACR SCAR Rifle
A problem i notice over and over in your work is the boxyness. It seems almost like you do the vast majority of your modeling just extruding shapes from a box in the side view. While this is ok for quickly blocking out your proportions, you get in trouble when you've still got this really blocky mesh, but now you're going… -

Re: The Torcher
The Gasmask biker mask style piece on his face where nose and mouth are underneath, these have soft gradual curves nestled up close to tight sharp curves. These read well ingame when the specularity hits them, when you push more than 2 or 3 bumps close together, you lose them all into noise though. The slanted square with… -
A better edge flow?
Hello polycount :) I started my new job today. Thanks to those who posted in my other threads, my transition from Max to Maya has been a smooth one. I'm pretty comfortable zipping around the menu's now. :thumbup: I have a more technical question for you now regarding the proper way to model this simple object. Pictured… -
maya different ways to model in symmetry?

Replacing 3dsmax's Modeling / UV mapping? Software recommendations please
Hi polycount. I learned to model on 3dsmax (and a little gmax, back in the day) and while I'm fairly literate in a lot of 3d software, I've always come back to max for modelling (because of the tools) and UV mapping (mostly just because I'm used to it.) However, I work for a fairly small company right now where I have some… -

[Maya] Worth it to buy a plug-in for better booleans?
I don't think I'm wrong in saying that Maya's default booleans are pretty bad, bordering on unusable in some cases. Right now I'm making a moderately high polycount hard surface model, and it is taking way too long for me to make it in Maya the way things are going. I haven't been using booleans at all until this point…
