Re: Corinthian Helmet WIP (Beginner needs help)
Take some time to really straighten out your edges. It might seem tedious, but having a clean model to work with makes a huge difference in the end result. Go into the orthographic views and clean up the mushy lines, make sure all the edges flow uniformly, no wavy lines. Making clean models is a great lesson to learn if… -
Re: Making the Perfect 3D Tutorial Site
I know many people have said this before me but, in today's online community's the more simple the website is the better. Also being a student in web design(among other things), a teacher of mine always say's "the user should NEVER have to click more then 3 links to get to where they want" (maybe not a DIRECT quote but… -
Re: Bombay
Thank you ajr2764. Well i'm a full time student in my final year of college and i dont think this is work, but as a passion. I love to build and design environments for video games and film.

Re: Maya: Vertex Normal precision errors when smoothing mesh causing normal map artifacts
Here's an example model just before smoothing. If you select all the vertices on the large flat area you can see that none of them have any differing vertex normals. When I smooth this model it will produce differing vertex normals on that very same flat area, even though there is not a single geometrical difference even… -
Re: How much would you charge for mentoring?
Well, if I were a good artist with good skills I wouldn't charge that much. Probably $30/hour, 3 hours on weekends. Of course, I would accept group sessions so if I would mentor 2~3 students I would charge $25/hour per person. But why would I? I always feel like I owe a lot to the society. That would be my small way to pay… -
Re: New Mudbox Forum
He could use some life drawing classes or something, maybe go tear apart cadavers with med students, something like that. His artwork aside I find his walkabout youtube videos a little bizarre, I wonder about his ego and psychological state I suspect they are fragile, or maybe I'm being a pompous ass (both could be true).… -
Re: The degree poll!

Re: E3: Losing it's luster?
I remember being blown away at my first E3 in 2000. This year was the first time I have been back since and I was very disappointed. I think part of that may be because in 2000 I was still a student wanting to break in to the industry, but I also remember the booth babes being hotter, the displays being more impressive,… -
Re: If you had to ...
I'm in the Harry Potter boat as well :) could do some interesting stuff with time and creating "classes" meaning - periods of time students (players) go through "levels." Would require a shit load of content, but for avid fans who want to submerge themselves in that world, it'd be great. Would probably be heavier on the…
