I think an altered camouflage would give the aircraft a little more contrast. I personally like this one - http://img.wp.scn.ru/camms/ar/41/pics/54_4.jpg Same pattern I believe - http://www.militaryfactory.com/aircraft/imgs/mil-mi24-hind_12.jpg Orange and Black - http://i41.servimg.com/u/f41/15/81/94/43/ate_al10.jpg…
I was there. =) Pixologic had some great workflows to show off. A lot of my associates end up either doing art or start working for pixologic, so its usually a good time to see them as well. While not the biggest fan of Autodesk's business model, they still managed to impress with the new features/improvements they keep…
Google these words if you don't know what they are. Here are just a few anatomical structures missing. Regardless if the person is hefty, skinny, or muscular you can see there body/bony land marks. I'm using anatomical terms because when you search them you will know specifically which region I am talking about. (sorry you…
I had a skinned character in the scene - and some additional animated rigid hierarchies with some wired ctrl etc..... But it was a pretty simple scene in general, so mabye having multiple skin modifiers in the scene might still be slower Just a hint: When using the stats display turning off all geometry related stats…
Great tutorial Brad. This thread looks like a good place to post this 3DS Max Custom Quad Menu hotkey combo trick for extending hotkey customization. I learned this from someone's Vimeo tutorial but I forget whose (and it may have been posted here already). If anyone knows, please let us know since all credit belongs to…
Hey guys :) Sorry my reply is a little late :S @A.Kincade Thanks man! @RexM Cheers :D @Snader Thanks for the input! Its an interesting idea to add whole blocks of colour, but i would have to play around a little to get something i like. Worth a try though eh? I think one of the reasons that it looks dark is the shader in…
@ Nitewalkr-- hey man :) I got a little distracted from Pitts over the weekend. and I haven't done any Zbrush work in ages, so I figured I'd do more WoW art for the fun of it. I will pick Pitts back up again soon! What do you suggest MoP?.. I was playing around w/ a few of the mat caps and I couldn't find one i liked so…
per, the whole under-a-deadline issue is kinda moot when it comes to liefield--he was also one of the worst offenders of the 90's rockstar artgod-fuck-deadlines era. Oftentimes his books would ship up to 9 months late..that's for a supposedly MONTHLY book. Could anyone fire him? No, he was an industry golden-child-hotshot,…
Good start, darth. Looks very predator, almost too similar in a way that makes it a bit of a disappointment as the next model after your predator. But never mind that, it's a good start and shows a lot of promise. I'd like to see you take this character further in the directions away from predator that you already have.…
I've got to second what people are saying here. Take it easy with what you're trying to do. With the number of maps that you were initially considering per character, you could very easily end up with 9 - 18 maps at 2048 for each. Now consider in a shooter there may be up to 15 players visible at moderately close range.…
