With the budget of around $1800, I think the best option would be to go with Sager. I just got myself one about a week and a half or two weeks ago and so far I have no complains, the performance is nice(It's no desktop but it does the job with relative ease). I had a budget of around 1600 so I did settle for a 3630QM and a…
I didn't used anything special: in Z-brush, I used the TrimSmoothBorder brush to sculpt the the main silhouette, then I used the Standard brush with a focal shift very sharp (around -95) trying to do that circular shape you can usually find on glass. For the texturing part, I just selected some random color values on my…
Even though , brwnbread compares cabbages with apples , he has a valid point. Take painting and photography : painting revolutionised itself when photography became viable. Take sculpture and 3d printing + scanning : ( and by sculpture i mean portaiture and the kind of sculpture you use for ornaments or busts , not the one…
Do we have to do everything for you?? Fine, here is a search list of threads I have posted in, you can look yourself ;) http://www.polycount.com/forum/search.php?searchid=1735594 Sometimes the truth is hard I know; and you can call it trolling if you wish. But four of us can't be wrong. A search of your activity shows that…
In theory its a great idea. However since the US is so backward about sex and even more so backward about games and who plays them. I think the soccer mom backlash would be of biblical proportions. If you make a game, even if its rated M with clear warning lables, locked behind the counter in a concrete bunker, guarded by…

And considering there are a few of us, this process can occur multiple times a day. There are times…
I realized the tutorial I was typing out was too long and detailed for something that is a senior project. These are the maps I would use for dirty glass (make sure to UV the glass and output it to photoshop first): 1) Diffuse - Base color of the glass + any dirt/dust 2) Specular - A greyscale version of the diffuse layer,…
My intention is to create a hyper-realistic M60A3 with materials. I started with the measurements from the Army Technical Manual and created the road wheels, drive sprocket, support rollers and idler wheel to the exact measurements. Probably a mistake to start this way as the reference orthos I found at the-blueprints.com…
Hey there, So, I'm going to try some concepts for this contest. If I don't finish it in time or if it doesn't work, then no big deal it's a good practice. When I stumbled upon the contest, I immediately got an idea about some sort of a factory with big translucent water tanks and pipes. It's located on an alien planet…
