I'm an amateur 3D artist, and in the real world a student studying Computer Games Technology (the programming side of things). I've been involved with computer graphics (both 2D and 3D) officially since I… -
Weird Max can't select glitch??
![TorQue[MoD]](https://us.v-cdn.net/5021068/uploads/userpics/978/n9Y8GE4KMHMJB.jpg)
Hey all! So my version of max is acting really wonky all of a sudden.

I can turn… -
Scaling skeletal mesh for game engine
Edit: I use maya 2009-2011 Hi!, my first thread on PC so sorry if Im off topic on this forum-section or something.

Viking Weapons (W.I.P) Go High poly?
I'm trying to make a Viking weapons, shields and helmet pack although with better quality as I have modelled many weapons before but I have never sculpted the models to gain good detail like I see many other artists do.

Texture Seams issues
Texture Seams issues hey, Iv all of a sudden run into some issues with max. For the last week iv been unwrapping and texturing several models for a scene using max 2010.

Yet another handpainted weapon.
Hey! Felt like doing something quick and dirty ( or so I thought ) so I figured I'd pick a neat concept and try to knock out one of the WoW-style fancy weapons! For my attempt I went ahead with a concept by the lovely firstkeeper, in the future I'll ofcourse be making my own concepts after a bit of training. I've come to… -

I'm having problems with a ramp shader for toon shading...
Ok, it's been an absolute nightmare trying to learn about how to use gradient maps for toon shading, as I keep on seeing examples of people using it but never any explanation to how they've done it. I was lucky enough to come across polyphobia's TF2 shading tutorial (…
