Re: Mercedes SLR Mclaren
I think you should be asking yourself what your target polycount is. What's your favourite racing game? Pick your favourite and then find out as much as you can about the their polycounts and map sizes. Next gen cars are clocking anywhere from 30-120k polies right now. But then again such a model takes 4-6weeks for an… -
Re: 3dsmax online workshops/training?
I'm not so much looking for "how to use the program" guides. More of modeling method tutorials with examples and demonstrations. Correct modeling forms for deformations in low and high polygon models would be nice. I know studying other models helps associate form and flow, but the method escapes me. I tend to model… -

Modeling faces in 3ds Max...can't find my way
Hi guys! box modeling,plane modeling,single face extrusion...damn i think i saw a video where a guy started from a cylinder.. who makes all directly in zbrush... and then who makes the eyes first,who makes the general shape of the head,nose just started with character modeling and i cannot find my way,my technique and my… -
#256fes challenge is proving challenging
Hi everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster here on this forum. The other day I stumbled upon the #256fes hashtag on the Japanese twittersphere, where artists are prompted to model a character within a budget of 256 faces (or even less?) and a texture map of 256x256px (Since I can't make out the origin of this… -
Re: Please someone point me in the right direction
Hmm, I think there are a few tips that could help you. First of all, you should also lower the polycount by a great amount, and gradually go up. This will keep the mesh controllable and have clean edges. You could even bring it to another modelling program and block it out to be extra precise. You can also work on the mesh… -
Re: Teaching 3D at High School
Teach the basics of translation, rotation and scale of course. Assign a project that has your students create something out of primitives (no editing.) See if they can make a basic vehicle, maybe a go-kart, by using cubes, cylinders, etc. After that I would go into the different polygon selections (vertex, edge, borders,… -
Re: [WIP] Clock Tower Apartment (UE4)
I agree with what the others have said here, it's not a bad start but to really give this place more visual interest you should probably come up with a few more creative design pieces. Apart from the antler stand (is that thing it's holding a sword?) almost all the props seem to be "blocky" in nature, like a simple cube or… -
Re: Help to setup a LOGO import from Illustrator
First off, with something like this I'm curious what you're using it for? How is this going to be seen? Is it an ingame model, are you using this to create a normals or maybe a mask? As far as getting quads, there are a few techniques, some are a bit tedious to explain, but, a few faster ideas would be: - If you could… -
Re: Want to say hello :]
I'd say the head on the biped needs something to focus on, right now it's sort of a big blob without any sort of emotional depth. If it had more of a sense of malice in the eyes perhaps. It's obviously larger than a human, so perhaps a bit of hunching over when it's fully modeled. Currently the torso is excellent, the…
