Not too sound harsh but the way the tires are modeled look very unnatural, you can tell its a separate object. Since you are charging for this I wanted to chime in, especially about cars. Like sonic said its important to do research on the function for what you are building. Since there is an Audi logo i assume your…
I'll extrude YOUR polygons in local axis. You can play with my soft selection anytime. You can explode your geometry all over my autoback (I can't take credit for that one) I really should write the better ones down. I make dirty Max jokes til the Daylight sun comes down. It's all in context really. I tell someone that…
Yo your modeling skills are crazy, I love what you are doing but I think the wheels are horrible on that car, me personally I think you should of went with the original one's. My aunt has the car. Oh and I think the material on the tires need more tweaking, maybe turn the spec up or something they look to flat for a studio…
Good luck on the piece. The barrels right now feel a little too generic, the rust seems just slapped on instead of dripping down the sides or applied realistically. I think it would also help if you gave the drums a purpose. For example, they were oil drums from an old mining corporation or something like that, so you can…
Thanks guys :) The electric stuff was a good idea really. I'm working on a powerbox and some stuff like that atm. Will upload a new shot once I got a bit more to show. ____________ Anywho, here's a door I did for 'Prometheus' recently. The top ones are those which will be used in the game, and the bottom one is a variation…
I created an arced texture the other day by mapping a square texture onto an arc in max and rendering it -that was for text for a logo for the back of a jacket. I suspect you'd get a lot of milage from the Polar co-ordinates filter in Photoshop. You'll notice that most of the bricks are an orange brown with light cement,…
Well, in my many years of viewing demo reels that come into the studio at work, quicktime has never failed where other formats have. I think it's still the 'safest' bet, although probably not the best. I'm still trying to figure the exact output myself:…
If I extract a model out of a game, convert it to a format shapeways uses, than have it printed and sent to myself only (don't add it to their store) that's illegal? I find this hard to believe. A 3d print is just like printing a 2d picture. I can goto Kinkos and print 100 copies of the coke logo I downloaded online, pay…
yeah you gotta model the high if you want any decent looking results. All the games I have been working on I have been making the high poly model for all the guns i have done and weapons. Things like text and logos can be added in photoshop but really you will have better results modeling the high poly. Take a look at The…
I think I'm a hobbyist bordering on pro. I'm going to do a couple more years of freelance while I put together The Ultimate Generalist Reel! It's pretty frustrating for me, since I have all the equipment/software I need, and I'm out of school, but I'm staying here in Norman for a few more years. If I was just a little…
