Re: End of Master Showreel 2017

3D Character Artist - Looking For Jobs
Hi everyone! 👋 I’m a 3D Character Artist specializing in realistic and fantasy-style characters for games and cinematic projects. I create game-ready models from concept to final textured asset, including: * High-poly sculpting (ZBrush) * Retopology and UVs (Blender) * PBR texturing (Substance Painter) * Rig-ready topology… -
Re: Where can I learn how topology should look when smoothened ?
Sub D doesn't matter. Animated sub D matters. Low poly doesn't matter. Animated low poly matters. If it smooths properly, who cares? Your example above shows three edges converging to one so normally you would merge the other two, but maybe there is a reason for the three. There is a guy here who does a low poly of his… -
Re: Beginner 3D Model – Need Feedback on Topology
Agreed with Flat Face. Definitely think about the context that you envision for this asset.

Re: Max vs Maya
"Does have anything remotely close to Biped/Character Studio? If not are there rigging tools available like PuppetShop, CAT or CrypticAR?" Something like The Setup Machine blows away Biped or Cryptic. There are a number of excellent and proven low-cost or free rigs for Maya that blow away almost anything Max has to offer…
