Fist off, hello everyone. I decided to learn how to model characters a while back so i've been messing around with that (already knew max basics before). And last week i started a UT2004 (so old, I know) character and ended up doing a Lauren remake (she looked way to fragile to me), wich resulted into this: And I was…
I'm not sure how you are arriving at error #1 if you are duplicating your LP to create your cage. Unless you are going back and modifying one of them after the fact to fix ngons or weld edges together or something like that. For #2, vertices will become re-indexed at any point where a component is added or removed (but not…
First time looking through this thread, you've done a great job polishing each aspect of the model, from sculpt to retop and texture, it's got a lot going for it! There are only a few low hanging fixes that I see that may improve the piece. One, as people have mentioned, the pores in the face (especially the cheek/nasal…
Np. Yes! That's an excellent idea. It'll help a ton. You can never do enough studies, certainly not time wasted. In fact, I've probably wasted a ton of time by not doing them early enough or just enough in general. The more you can get out of thinking "what goes here, shit, what muscle is that, or is it something else…
Update Time!!! so for the last few hours i been retoping this monster(pun intended) sorry i'm very tired. Now this is where the fun begins ,i get to go nuts and start really adding in the details but i'll probably wait til the morning to start working on that. But for now I decide to really start focusing on the feeling…
If you do not like tities and can't digest nudity, then do not do art. Art is full of this stuff.. And well if you get aroused by it then just keep it for yourself, no need to launch nukes for it.. Cheers on nice titties and asses! .) To be completely fair (and again, not making any positive or negative judgement here even…
I saw this video back when it first came out; he makes some neat points. Something nobody seems to be discussing is what happens when you "stand up" in this industry. We've made it a priority to eventually embarrass and disgrace people who stand up and try to put a "face" on our industry. The people working in films, the…
[ QUOTE ] Eli has the most connections to all the characters, so I think he was probably the logical one to kill off; working relationship with Kleiner and Barney, romantic tension with Mossman, fatherly love with Alyx, confiding in Gordon (the player). I think the amount of blood that shot out of his skull was a little…
per, you are right about the difficulties of mechanical modeling. there are a lot of technical issues to keep in mind. I know about all that, trust me. i was never trying to say that mechanical modeling is very very easy compared to human modeling, in fact it was the other way around. you think that is exclusive to hard…
haha, thankx guys basically to sum all of the posts up. It is asymetrical and "simple" because i was trying to make it exact to Halo 2. Everytime I have (least i have noticed with me) when i try and put a personal touch onto models, people seem to frown upon that and dont pay much attention, although i am considering doing…
