@Ashervisalis thank you for the kind words! Just a little background on me - I went to a UC school and the art program was underfunded and too theoretical/contemporary. So I taught myself the basics of graphic design. After that I discovered Maya. I took some classes at Animschool, and I feel that they really improved my…
A labor of love, and a quest for knowledge. Quick progress update on some tweaks an further variation in customization. After all, whats the point in making the one of the worlds most modular sidearms with out some options? Finally got the magazine done, Suppose I held that project off long enough. 21 round magazine,…
AGoodFella is right, there is potential but keep on working hard. I also would recommend watching for tuts online (there are a boat load of it). Also, your reel is 2 years old and I think you should make a new one. I know it takes a tremendous amount of time to create one but I'm sure if you have the grind you can make it.…
Personal preference https://i.pinimg.com/564x/f1/2b/97/f12b97db3b8dad32b728cffd9f558157.jpg Would like to see more of this type of lighter damage on key spots at the trim of the leather coat. If you don't mind purchasing a completed eye, online markets have some good products. Otherwise, iris color looks to be black, the…
I think what causes the line crossing for me is that from the start it was very much people in the sphere of hard surface/ hard surface weapon modeling from a few studios. Not all hard surface artists of course just those from those companies. People that either would have communication on a work basis or on a basis of…
His agenda is to make governments acountable for illegal actions that would otherwise go unknown. however it's true that wikileaks holds a much stronger (bordering on extreme) stance on this than alot of people would agree with. In the past they have been under criticism for releasing documents that pertained to then…
Retopo is coming around, mudbox2014 has some great tools for this. You draw out some guides along important areas and it figures out the rest. 3DCoat is pretty good at retopo too, similar functionality. zBrush is probably the widest used but most under developed when it comes to retopo but decimation master does a great…
Here is another solution(video) by Steven Roselle's Maya blog @ the area: http://area.autodesk.com/blogs/stevenr/symmetrical_modeling_tips_and_tricks The last time I met Steve in Baltimore, he actually gave me the idea. ( His desire to one day see all of Maya's tools reflectable ). So I am hopeful Autodesk will implement…
Well as far as the python classes, right now I'm running through this udacity one right now. https://www.udacity.com/course/intro-to-computer-science--cs101 It was recommended to me by a few engineers at the studio, not only because it will teach the basics of computer science, and how to think in a way that is beneficial…
Hmm, better, but I think you're chasing a target that will never feel right. Better to do the wall run by itself first and figure that out I think. As it is, in terms of the wall jump after the leap and hang, you need to pop up the legs a lot quicker (watch your reference for the arcs and timing). I think the nature of the…
