Hello there, Quickly tested in Maya 2024.1 the Mirror and Regularize tabs, which is what I usually use in 2020.4. Mirror seems to be broken for the most part. Played around with it with simple shapes and it wasn't behaving as expected. As for the Regularize tab, everything seems to be working fine with the exception of…
For any artist that still feels that they are not at a point to apply to jobs, I would definitely try and network with a mentorship focus. This would enable a long term connection/commitment early on and with the situation the industry is currently facing, many experienced artists are more than willing to accept connection…
Hey guys, hope some of you can help me resolve an issue I've been unable to resolve. I'm currently in the unwrapping phase of an assault rifle I'm making, and 3DSMax keeps insisting that my UV shells are inverted. Take a look at the picture below: As you can see, the UV shell looks identical to the face I have highlighted.…

On my walk home from the train station tonight, I was jumped 3 guys. Initially I only saw one of them and he had asked me for the time. So I grabbed my phone to check and as I looked up, all I saw was a fist to the face! The next thing I know, I'm down on the ground and the guy is kicking me, so I start kicking back. I…
I myself have always had this problem but once u understand how topology of a mesh should work for good deformation.I think one should have little or no need for blendshape corrections.I am still trying to get good weight painting skills,lol. Check this guys tutorials focused solely on why topology is important.…
Definitely go with the painted shelves, but also try to think of the larger shapes in general. At the moment it definitely looks like purposefully-placed masonry that's cracked and eroded over time, but it doesn't have the hallmarks of something that should be on a vertical face. Ask yourself what a cliff face might look…
I'd highly recommend the GIM videos: http://gim.acanaday.com/ - they cover things like 'The Interview' in a way which might inform you a bit better. You passed the first step which was via Skype or phone and now they want to meet you face to face. Generally that's pretty good news. If anything, they will be trying to find…
Okay I'm just going to post some more today. Why not?! Here are some up close shots of the face sculpting both before and after screenshots. I went ahead and grabbed my drawing tablet (Wacom) to make some "notes" As you can see I had some fun with drawing over the pictures. Anyway the first time I started to sculpt was not…
Hey dimosM. Great idea, getting yourself to do these exercises! Practice is really going to get you familiar with the intricate forms of the face quickly. I think personally you would benefit from using a specific reference and creating a jpeg of an assortment of angles and perspectives of that one face from images off the…
