Yeah, in hindsight I often feel that I tend to go a bit overboard with that stuff. Thanks for the critique, it's very appreciated! :) Been a while since I updated I believe, here's some stuff. Tried out some Zbrush yesterday. I've been fiddling with it before but I think I'm getting more hang of it now. Did a paintover in…
Yeah I would agree the sky looks too gray for the lighting you have. I personally like the happier lighting so I'd change the skydome before I'd change the lighting. I like what you did with the beach and the foliage...really adds to the scene. Not sure if you have time for more props and stuff around the actual structure…
I spent most of my time working on the hair material. Did a quick and dirty test to see how it reacts to lighting and camera rotation. I am going to redo all the hair planes and add either a ponytail, long hair, or braids at the back. There also appears to be a bug in 4.17 with dithered opacity which kinda sucks.…
I couldn't utilize that tutorial, the displacement maps don't seem to work the same way in modo like in Max (they seem to only add to the sphere's surface, instead of cutting through it like in Max). Though I did make a high res sculpt and bake a normal map off of it; so cool! :D I don't understand, though, how should I go…
This thread looked attracted a lot of attention while I was asleep haha. @almighty_gir - that's pretty neat! I did not know that actually. If you have a reliable source I'd like to add that into a section. It's really cool to think you can do that so "simply". @s6 - please note that I have changed the name to Encyclopaedia…

I think you've got a great portfolio put together. My only crit would be to add your resume as R Kain mentioned. Potential employers will want that paper reference for later. btw, I'd love to know how you did the tank treads. I've been trying to find a good way of doing that without stretching... preferably without…
Backbone of course. But if the guy did it a few times and you was warned, be prepared for a verbal assault. If I am doing something over and over and the reason why is because someone's messing it up, I'll give you a chance. But if you keep doing it, I'd go off on you. My personal rule is: If you're not my dad and you get…
I agree with what's been said already, just want to add that the little emblem on the piece of uhh cloth? hanging between the legs looks completely odd. It looks like you pretty much filled in an area with grey, then used a bevel on it (which I'm guessing is just what you did). It looks completely out of place, and makes…
Countershit (yeah thats right Countershit) fucking sucks! Remember the bug in the install of the disc version of Half-Life 2 where it was required that you install Countershit I did and when it was done I uninstalled it and zeroed out the sectors of my hard drive where it was installed dod style! I feel your pain KDR give…
