Getting ready to move to a new apartment so I wasn't able to get much done over the past week, but here's where she's at: Still to do: add the rest of the fur and the leather/cloth pieces, throw in some placeholder hair so I have an idea where I want to build my alpha'd hair, better define the forms in the fingers and add…
Jacob: Thanks man! I'll go back and play with the AO a bit to see if I can make the contrast pop on the handle. Polygoblin: Thanks for the feedback. I definitely will go back and get rid of some of the recessions, but I wanted to keep some that were closer to the player's view for light to bounce from. I'm thinking I can…
It was the most and the most important part of all our research and developments. We were sure that we should follow the style of epic films but beside that the principals of lighting are always same for any scene and mood. So we collected references from many films... The Kingdom of heaven The Last samurai The lord of the…
If Kevin can gain 100 pounds of muscle then sure! If not then i'm sure there are a few large Scandinavian actors that could play the part of thor. The guy from gladiator comes to mind, Ralf Moeller i bet he would love to play that part. As for WWE "actors" yeah no thanks. BTW the ten rings in shield references in ironman…
The way that I handle this problem in 3ds max is to use the WHITE align tools. The tools are hidden under the traditional align tools in the Quick Transform tab. To access them you must click and hold on the orange handled align tool and then select the white one. I hope this image explains the process. You can leave the…
I was actually playing around with that not too long ago. For the hair I would suggest sculpting it as apposed to polygon planes. I usually make one hair chunk, copy it around, dynamesh it and then clean it up. You'll probably want to use the dam-standard brush to get the sharp look from the original drawing. The bandanna…
*blows dust of thread* Time to revive this thing! Here's a Sniper set that I'm working on: I'm not much of a concept artist but here's what I sketched out to give myself a clear view of the vibe I wanted for the set. I ended up making the hair more dwarf-life with with rings separating the parts instead of ranger-ish with…
Akira in 3D starring Shia labeouf Shit. Thats just sacrilege. Why can't they write something new. But as it is with all good stories since man learned to tell stories. They will be told over and over and over again. But there should be a rule that big budget films arent allowed to do remakes for a minimum of 50 years. I…
On second thought it might be easier to turn a plane into a torus depending on what 3d app you are modeling your base mesh in. On the other hand I believe there are some scripts out there that can morph a mesh based on it's UV coordinates, renderhjs textools is one with it's swap UVW XYZ feature. So you could do the bulk…
Me: Freedom for and from religion. Separation of church and state... No not ringing any bells there Hannity? I guess someone was sleeping when the actual fabric of our nation was being discussed in class (the constitution). Hannity: Wait hold on... that thing in the case surrounded by guards is NOT petrified toilet paper?…
