After a couple busy weeks, I finally got the time to create the substance material for the wooden floor, and I re-used the wall material to create the ceiling material. Same than for the wall, I made half a dozen different instances for the ceiling, putting some variations between the holes, the cracks and the grungy moss…
Hey man. Good idea about limiting this to lunch break as it forces you to make decision to move forward. I've done it as practice and it forces you to make decisions and not fiddle around. Anyway, really like the concept image mashup. From the 3/4 angle if feels like its wider at the back and that makes it feel sturdier…
You said there was a first time for everything, thus implying that there was even the remotest possibility that it could potentially, in theory, maybe do something resembling starting on time. You jinxed it. Good going. Happy now? Negative, Ghost Rider. You pick a website that you'll be representing. You then start a…
@MightyPea: No worries, my passwords are pretty insane and for the most part unique per site. Just pointing to that article which says in addition to at least one letter, number, and symbol (which forces a brute force password cracker to use the full character set) the length of the password will then determine it's actual…
This happened to me once during an art test, ended up losing a bit of work...that was not a fun experience. It seemed like any time I clicked within the PS window it would trigger 9 or 10 windows once the initial window avalanche started, preventing me from saving anything I was working on. I found this thread at the adobe…
personally i hope it stays as far away from the main potter arc as possible. i suppose if it's set that far back in time, Dumbledore would have been in his thirties as well though, and so it would be around the time of the battles between him and Grindelwald. it's also only a decade before Dumbledore visits Tom Riddle at…
There's no "best" package as they all have their fair share of problems. I'm a max user but I am quite interested in Modo, especially once I found out about that Mesh Fusion plugin, that thing is bad ass! I would suggest picking a popular package like Max or Maya to learn first as you'll likely find more documentation and…
Yeah, no normal maps on the body of the car, I'm trying to use this method for that, http://speedhunters.com/archive/2011/11/17/behind-the-scenes-creating-cars-need-for-speed-run.aspx You were right on the branch, I threw it into udk and it was way too solid once you started to back up, the needles are a bit thinner with…
Thanks so much Dado! It's quickly becoming overwhelming with all the different things to take in! Sculpting in clay is a great idea and having spent the last few days sketching, I've really craved a '3D' aspect but don't feel ready to jump into ZBrush with it just yet so traditional sculpting might be a good medium to…
whew....for not knowing how to uv map, you have a lot of intricate pieces to deal with here. First of all, the tools are slightly different depending on which program you are using. Looks like this is 3dsmax but I'm not sure.. Just do a google search, there is information everywhere about this stuff. It took me 30 seconds…
