Re: UVMapping in layman's terms
For some things like low poly props, it's not that bad because there's less room for error and it only takes a few clicks. For everything else though, it just inflates game development when you could be making better games. For example, why unwrap a car when you can just apply different shaders (like Mental Ray)?… -
the ultimate steampunk wheelchair
Not sure which area of the forum this belongs in (since its 3D and reality, mods feel free to move if needed) but I wanted to share this with ya'll. A few years ago I freestyle designed some scifi speeder bike, mainly just for brain practice and recently a fellow by the name of Art (ex Disney imagineer/designer) contacted… -
[PAID] Need 2D artist
I'm looking for a 2D artist who can draw and color characters that look fairly close to Disney characters in terms of detail and style. No animation required (we're using Spriter to animate), but there will be a significant amount of work if you are interested and able. I can pay between $40-50 for each finished character,… -

Former Microsoft Dev demonstrates VR Modeling prototype.
Last year, I posted news of a famous Disney animator using VR to draw cartoons. Now here's a new example of a developer trying out 3D modeling in a Virtual Reality environment. https://vimeo.com/188806338 As someone who now owns a VR device, I can imagine the huge wave of creativity inspired it. While modeling is one major… -
How to do a realistic render of an environment/model?
I see on movies like Disney's live action The Jungle Book they were able to render an incredibly detailed and realistic looking environment. If I didn't know any better I would of thought they shot the movie in an actual Jungle (besides the talking animals of course). How exactly do they accomplish such realistic renders?… -
Re: Wall E
The first thing is notice is that you made the body completly cubic. The lower sides and lower back is supposed come out a couple of cm's more than the rest of the main body. Also the eyes are supposed to be convex, but your's are way too smooth towards the outer rim and are supposed to be pushed further back inside the… -
Re: Hitting Character Likeliness ?
well your argument already falls apart, within one style characters may look alike, but they don't have to. just compare UP to Big Hero 6, both stylized, all different characters. and in Up no Character looked like the others, besides some random unimportant characters. As they come from the same basemesh/rig for… -
Re: What are character pose archetypes called and where to find more about it?
It sounds like what you're interested in is character shape language. For example http://www.mciii.net/blog/2014/11/19/character-design-and-shape-language But the reasons why certain character designs resonate more than others has to do with how well-rounded the designers themselves are. Many things go into the design, not… -
Re: Autodesks 2015
I can repro this as well. Though I noticed that the default material node is still connected when I graph the object in the Node Editor, or use the Attribute Editor. Any changes made don't have any effect, so it looks like there's a bug somewhere. Maya has had Bullet support as far back as Maya 8.5, when Disney open…
