Do you mean in general or like for alphas? Im using Lucy Lui as my reference for this face so I have a lot of images of her. But the main image for pores for her is a B&W high contrast image of her face. In fact if you do a Google image search for images of high contrast, B&W portrait, photos you can find some great…
The reason there have been so many new users, including myself was because of this news story that was published yesterday http://www.n4g.com/News-347268.aspx The Lens of Truth was only telling the truth, and because of your previous comment that site is being discredited. You must understand when you stated they were…
The home page has no function. Just put that image in the gallery and let it load first. You're also better off by renaming the gallery to 'gallery' rather than 'personal work' because you have no 'paid work' to go with it. You can simply change it to personal/professional once you're allowed to show the professional…
Try baking some lighting into te texture, like a light orange tone from below and a more blueish tone from above. Then bake an AO pass. Next, find some nice rubber refpics or whatever it is those boats are made from and overlay it to the rubbery parts. Get an Envmap on those Metal parts so that it looks like it reflects…
That sucks casey. Count your chickens though. You could be a lot worse off. As I'm sure most people here have too at one point or another in their lives, I studied various martial arts back in the UK, and even the toughest, scariest south London street savvy 6th dan uber nutter bastards that I knew will tell you to just…
I've tried changing the attenuation on the omnis. I went all the way down to .005 on some of them, then deleted most of them to see if it made a big difference. I couldn't tell anything. There's so much stuff in the omnis to change, that I couldnt figure out what did what. I changed the near/far atten, and the decay,…

Some really retarded things jump out at me like: "The first thing that caught my eye was that the game is shadow cheating, a very sad sad technique that dates back to the…
This is where I come to be inspired and imagine what I can eventually become -- a much better artist. I've been using Maya 2009 Unlimited on my laptop [windows xp] for 1/2 a year now. When I smooth some objects my laptop struggles pretty bag with them. Like a rail model [rifle foregrip] I saw someone else do I pretty much…
I'm working on an engine in XNA but before I can do anything with it I need an animated model to test with. So I've made the main character, the topology was perfect it was 260 poly's sticking with the retro look while maintaining a good form. When it came to animating, I set up vertex groups and an armature and it all…
Hi there, im new here, but looking foward to getting involved with the community. Was hoping some one out there might be able to help me out with a problem im running into. I am currently trying to make a UDK environment using Choco's amazing Terrain tutorials [ame="…
