I think this is probably the most misunderstood point regarding capital punishment - it's a punishment, not a deterrent. Is there any truly effective deterrent for criminals? It's been proven that the death penalty does nothing to deter 'hard' criminals, so to insist on viewing it as a deterrent and criticizing it on those…
The sky I painted by looking at a boatload of reference. This tutorial helped a ton as well: http://www.androidblues.com/cloudtut.html It's really just playing around with colors and figuring how to make the sky help accentuate the work you're trying to show off. I didn't want my scene to be to busy. I'd suggest something…
Probably for the same reasons bees use a hexagonal shape? Less resources used to create the container, less energy expended to create it, better stability, more can be packed into a tighter space ect... http://www.npr.org/blogs/krulwich/2013/05/13/183704091/what-is-it-about-bees-and-hexagons Maybe the crate of the future…
I have a few points i could recommend rethinking in the future: - Shirt folds are generally not very strong, and they in no way seem to adhere to the holed in it. - No fraying around torn shirt. - Too symmetrical in the mouth area. - Head shape is off and too thin, there is no space for a brain in the cranium as it's way…
As someone that used to VJ, I can give some input on this. Basically a Macbook Pro is perfect for VJing. They are used extensively by DJ's and VJs in a club environment because they are great at staying cool in hot sweaty clubs (I've use Windows laptops and desktops in the past which struggled in the environment, my…
ex-mobile phone retailer here: my advice is, contact vodafone's legal/fraud team, you'll need to provide them with copies of reciepts of purchase. you'll also want to contact amazon's legal team. explain the situation to both parties and above all else ensure that they are in contact with each other. take a name and…
Hi Jordz, nice GoIem. I think that since he is made of stones he should articulate some how so he can move around. For that is not enough to shape the stone as if they had muscles. You need to separate the geometry in the articulations so they are individual pieces. And sorry but i have to agree with a previous comment…
Thanks guys! Working hard on this... Been following Choco's tutorials, such awesome work :) danpaz3d > I know what u mean, it's noted :) Think I wanna see how it looks with painted grass models first before I start painting some more grass up the hills. MeintecdS > Yea I think ur right about the proportions and space, I…
@ chrisavigni: Thanks! :) luthyn : Thanks, an no, no dDO, just good old fashioned photo sourcing and painting. I did use nDO pretty extensively for the brick walls. @ DWalker / ShockInfinite / passerby : Thanks, and yeah I settled on the method of vertex painting. I have created two materials I'm gonna try vertex painting…
I'm late to this but in Blender you can assign faces as flat or smooth without splitting geometry, the default box for example doesn't have splits; you can export as an obj and import and it still won't have splits. For a game asset the engine will split hard edges in the end, if it's for film you probably don't want to do…
