Cheers duders! Avoiding studies for the time being, trying to flex my imagination muscle so its not so fucking shit and boring. It's probably one of the most frustrating things so far, especially when youre trying to think of something cool and it comes out not so. Theres a few more sketches/doodles and what not that…
Right, we arent doing any real "lesson plan" persay, we have some specific stuff we try to teach with each topic, but it is more of an organic process than: Step 1 model this shape like this Step 2 model this other shape like that Step 3 etc etc The whole idea behind the thing is to share how you would tackle the…
Good eye Dekard, Im a big fan of the Gnomons, and prefer some of the modeling methods used in it compared to the way i modeled before :P. It all depends on my tri budget. and ye i didnt bother to merge the center as i was till making changes to it and playing around with it, next time i shouldnt be so lazy Mightypea - you…
I did some new renders. I´ve changed and adjusted the specmaps and the reflectivity so that the painted parts arent as bright and reflective and that that the damaged parts have less spec. According to my refpics, the painted parts still have some spec/ref left so i didn´t tone it down entirely. I´m going to try to add…
The wallpapers arent really a good reflection of the results. People had lots of extra time to finish their characters for the wallpapers, and some are probably in better condition then they were during the official handin. Many people didnt hand in wallpapers either, I didnt hand in mine for CGChat. There were 150 entrys,…
if anything, id cut the hatch polygons as NormalDetail, but keep the bevels on the edges of the box. You'd be surprised how much taking the time to add the extra polygons on the edges to try to elliminate jaggies helps. The metal edges do seem a little too fucked up to be natural. Id go in maybe and add some dinks, dents,…

AND IT KILLS EVERYONEEEE! haha. heres my…

Hey guys! Asume you texture a character (Body + Props) and have a limit by one 4K texture set. This is a 4K-Texture-Set : is that correct, can i layout it that way? So asume i want to give "Body" and "Props" the same "Texture-resolution" Body: 2K-Set Props: 2K-Set Like this: arent there 2x2K's unused?? Am i wrong here?…
Hey guys do you know if its possible to key locators that arent all moving in unision? Like for the eyelids I have 4 joints/locators on it and i keyed the neutral pose at 0 Then I move the 4 joints down at different rotate values because the middle lid needs to go lower to fully close the eye Heres what it looks like…
