So here's the deal. I live in Korea and as I was looking up parts for my new computer rig, I found a killer display for super cheap. They are under a few different names but basically(from my research) these are rejected apple cinema displays in a different stand and casing. This guy in the video talks about them some here…
Hey guys, I've been keeping updates here for the project; but Haiasi rightly pointed out that I should keep it up in P&P. I've been tackling the shuttle from the 80s classic Outland. The shuttle model was originally built by two crazy talented guys using random kitbashed parts (including a few from the original Millennium…

Hey man! Here's my two cents on what I can answer to help clear things up. In terms of stuff that goes into engine, almost always they are referred to as triangles. Polygons is a bit misleading, since they can be approximately twice the actual geometry (a crate that is 10k "polygons/quads" can be ~20k triangles in the…
Hey, I've been working on a cartridge converted version of the Lefaucheux 20 shot revolver for 2 months now and I've finally pushed myself to bake and start texturing it unlike my other hard surface models that are stuck in limbo.
