max 9 and 2009 are good and stable releases,- 2010 has some problems with the GUI as far as I know (or what I heard) autodesk even offers a PDF where you can transfer licenses from person to person so that you can use the patches and service packs and support for your version. So if you'd happen to buy a used license from…
I wonder if this is just the top of the line model then selling at a much higher price than regular consoles. I seem to recall they were planning different tiers for their console, so perhaps the mortal tier which games might actually target as a baseline will turn out a good deal weaker. There must be a catch here - 899…
Hey, nice! Always good to see more 2d artists in here. Some crits of your work: Everything you have here or in your portfolio so far is made out of incredibly simple geometric shapes. Cubes, spheres. Think more about the contours of your surfaces! Your compositions are the same way. EVERYTHING is centered! Vertically if…
"I don't think full forgiveness of loans is fair. That means tax payers would have to pay" They are going to pay anyway. that's the beauty of the guaranteed loan. Privatize the gains, socialize the losses. A student defaults on their loan, the government (the taxpayers) have to cover it. And let's see, what happens when…
There are no annual maintenance fee, the service packs(SP) are fee. If you buy 801 you'll get all the SP for free. So far Luxology has been very friendly with their upgrade path, you can pretty much upgrade from Modo 101 to 701 without having to pay any back maintenance at 495 USD. You are not required to upgrade , you can…
It's far too scattered. There's no sense of defensive capability. The models themselves seem ok, they kind of fit the same style, but even then; what are they? I've attached a plan of one of the checkpoints I manned a lot during my service. Notice the way cover is placed, as well as stuff placed in the path of a vehicle so…
You would need a pretty broad portfolio (good assortment) to approach the collectible/toy market. I would recommend focusing on either monsters or humanoids and really pushing the detail, since that's the kind of work that gets noticed. It is possible to make a career in this field, but it will take time. You should be on…
Granted. Let's face it, the T-Rex rampage in the second film was pure fan-service. It is very hard to defend the subsequent films. Personally, I'm feeling rather "up" on Jurassic World. From what we've seen of it so far, it looks like the film makers are leaning into the potential fun and camp of the movie, no matter how…
That was the second reason I walked away from mudbox, I was one of the first people to buy mudbox 1 and it was awesome and the forums helpful and full of talent. Then autodesk and mudbox 2 came out and suddenly Im being told my hardware cant run mudbox anymore, I guess they just changed the direction of the company towards…
+1 for cookedpeanut. Forcing a name with meaning and marketability just isn't the greatest idea, because it almost always sounds generic or like it's trying too hard. Cookedpeanut's easy enough to remember, I don't have anything else associated with it (aside from cooked peanuts), and it feels more natural than any of the…
