Re: Animation reel, High- and Low poly
Hey, that was some damn fine feedback, I heeded almost all of it. The updated video is reached via the old link! Felt good getting rid of those black backgrounds, improved a lot I think. As did zooming in on the knights, I got so used watching it all in fullscreen on a large monitor. Makes a whole lot of sense to keep it… -
Re: SDK Master Thread
Hello all! I'm gonna simultaneously ressurect this awesome thread and throw my hat into the ring. I love the models I've downloaded here and they've certainly informed some of my own work, so I'm going to pay it forward how I can. Releasing my Spider-Gwen model out into the world as I've gotten a few requests to make her… -
Re: Character for Class, WIP

Re: n00b mistakes you've made.
I thought I was hot shite and had discovered a big workaround to the UV unwrapping flow (I was just starting to get the hang of unwrapping). I was using the diffuse texture and was placing faces according to the details on the texture. This worked fine wile I was only working with diffuse maps, and got to the point where I… -
Re: Sketchbook: Moiokollo
I’m thinking of actually having a missile launcher to the mech. It wouldn’t be attached to the mech he would be carrying it kinda like a rocket launcher, and on the side it could say “carrockets” in graffitti. HM. Gonna try that out. The inside of the robot is still hollow so, some mechanical parts in the inside would be a… -
Re: Noob Biped Question (Max8)
What the professor was saying is right. The rotation angle I need is locked out in local mode as well. Although I did find somewhat of a solution. I downloaded a tool called Rigging Army Knife, which can take a biped and convert it to max bones (while still looking exactly like a biped). So after doing that I can rotate… -
Re: What is a game artist?
yeah you'd deffinatly have to be savy with one of the big TWO for most positions, there are quite a few high poly modelling positions going around (esp with move to more powerfull tech) but it would be a dissadvantage at interview if you only knew zbrush, mudbox et al and another knew max aswell. i think the best way is to… -
Re: Hello. Which is preferred? A Specialist or a Generalist?
The problem with people who are pure specialists is that they can't see the problems they might cause other people. If a character modeler knows nothing about animation then they'll have big problems when the animator or TD goes to rig their model. Simultaneously if an environment artist doesn't know anything about… -
Re: WIP...um...villain?
Dabu, thank you for the feedback! I reduced the horns down to 3-sided and am working on the general distribution of polys. I also started to define the butt and back more. I did use a side reference from the start, although in terms of the stiffness you talked about, I don't think it's much better than the front. To… -
Re: Soldier Base Mesh Development and Anatomy Study (nsfw)
I've tried to adjust the positioning of the thumb to be more accurate and refine the fingers a bit. I was using a skeleton rig as a guide before because I want to use this character in a mod but I learnt today that the rig is changing to one with better proportions. Once I get that rig I'll readjust but for now I'll just…
