Fine-Grain Noise Overlays in Photoshop can help to break up large chunks of solid colors when printing. I used to work at a large-format print shop (5m paper widths :poly124:), and we'd sometimes add fine-grain noise to images. It doesn't really "improve" the image quality, but when deciding how to print the image, the…
Hi. I like your colour choices, and the whole composition is really cool. Mostly, I think it lacks polish. You didn't say how far you were into finishing this (the "text text text" implies it's not done yet, obviously). - I would use vector graphics for everything except the characters: the border, the flowers and…
going to college isn't such a bad thing (when not considering the costs). just don't expect them to teach you how to become a great artist. you will always have to learn the stuff yourself. a college provides you with alot of opportunities tho. may it be equipment like mocap systems, hd cams, 3d printers/scanners,…
So I put the Unreal project in the freezer for now. I have added some functionality and would love to make it some kind of standalone portable 3D portfolio, but currently I don't have the time/knowledge to do it. I definately going to be working on it later though. Continuing on what I am doing right now; The Queen…
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…
Hello there, I am searching for a way to get some 3D models for a family member's 3D printer. I don't know much about it, but I think this would be a great thing to get him as a holiday gift this year. I don't know how one goes about obtaining models, or if one needs to get them commissioned. As I said, I know next to…
Hello - I'm a modeler myself and work with many other sculptors/artist on my team. A big time sink that I have is taking model that other folks deigned and repairing them to get the high standard I need. these models are all intended/designed to be supportless, and the workflow I do looks like this: 1) look at interior…
You can have actually have this kind of work (pure sculpting/posing) in the miniatures for war games/board games, scale miniatures, and designer toy industry. While some artists simply power through the count spamming the detail, decimating and then tossing the work to a printer, it does help to know proper edgeflow for…
Hey, thanks for the comment! The original design was just me trying to find a silhouette that I thought looked cool, but now I kind of have a sense of how the weapon would actually "function", although it's probably not that clear just from the design alone. I will probably need to create some schematics and flavor text…
If Anita kept to her shenanigans about Lego, Pink clothes and other random stuff which she doesn't read the history about in her videos on her channel intact, there would have much less whiplash on her, but from the following interview, it looks like the people who donated money have essentially burnt it at the end of the…
