I broke my dominate hand in a bike crash as well. Broke in two places, with my little and ring finger splinted and bound. We were in crunch when it happened, so not much sympathy or any time off. Couldn't use the tablet for texturing, but was able to use the mouse by lightly resting the hand on the mouse. Just take it…
Looks really good for your first time! Matches the ref pretty well. I think you could rework some of the edge-loops around the mouth, the edges should ring around the mouth and follow the flow of the muscle a bit better. It looks like you were aiming for this but missed the mark in a few spots. From the side-view there's a…
When they are there, and have at least good symmetry tools like modo give me a ring im all ear then. And Maya always had old ass poly modelling tools, but the basics worked if you wherent to picky, when i tried Houdini it gave me even bigger headache then Blender or Lightwave. When i had to learn C4D i picked it up in a…
This is my setup, works great for me as I have my most used functions mapped to keys used when you play fps games so it feels comfortable to me and you never move your left hand: shift + w : loop selection shift + e : extrude a : cut shift d : collapse shift f : connect verts shift space : connect options shift r : ring…
Joeriv, thanks for the advice I will check my model when I get a chance along with some more Ref images to work out the trigger. As for the break down pin I think that everyone builds them a little different and some have them cut into the outer ring like that and some dont...lol :\ Bek, sorry if this sounds stupid but…
From what I can see, grip needs to be more ergonmic. Grips tend to have an "almost" oval shape to them since that is more comfortable for the hand. The trigger gaurd (part under the trigger) looks to wide. Also missing the writing above the magazine well ;) My advice would be to look up as many reference photos of the…
The wall sconces really don't feel right - the base is too broad for the underlying wood beam, and the glass has no visible means of support. The neck is also a bit too simple; I'd expect thicker rings at the base and end. I'd expect the light from one set of windows to be much brighter than from the other; as it stands,…
Very nice ! I'm working currently on the same rifle ! Glad to see this gun inspires people. Personally I haven't respected some things in the modeling process, or example I choosed a different scope, ! yours looks really great ! - My critic would be on the canon, I find the holed part a the extremity a bit smooth and not…
I agree with @lotet about the facial expression. I also think the materials (and lighting) could all use some more love. Here are some things that jump out at me: -That golden crown/hat for instance doesn't really feel like any material I know. -The metal rings feel more like porcelain, -The uniform velvety fresnel effect,…
Hey there, I've been absolutely loving these tools! But I noticed the advanced modelling tools have a 10 to 30 second wait after I do an action. I select an edge-ring, and it freezes for that long. Then I split it. And it freezes for just as long. Kind of sucks, because it's so darn useful. Any idea why it would be doing…
