Giraffe weevil (Trachelophorus giraffa) Looking for feedback
Hey there! This is my first post on the forum, and I am looking for some feedback on a project I am working on. My goal is to create a realistic giraffe weevil posed on a leaf, to be rendered in Arnold/Maya.

Re: Maya 2020
Bifrost does have a unified MPM solver. But its not about simulation its about Visual Programming. Volume modeling and Rigging are also on the roadmap. Here some examples. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gHQFcLb-rQ https://vimeo.com/353466611 https://vimeo.com/350025715 More Background Info about Bifrost.… -
Re: A Maya Beginner here....
That is a good start. Lots of introduction to Maya eg.. tutorial. Just watch those for some time till you get fair understanding how that program works. But for te future sake, you should keep your eye on other software as well. Zbrush is essential nowadays if you want to become a char artist. Maya is more like assembly… -

Started some time in early February and worked on it in my free time as often as I could. I will probably adjust some things and re-render for my portfolio, but it's pretty much there. I will… -

This is from the Max Bifrost devs: Why are you focusing on Bifrost and not other tools like MCG? Simply put, there is a larger investment from… -
Re: Dwarf - Blacksmith, Rifleman or Viking (Help me decide)
Bombur aside, dwarves are rarely fat; stout, perhaps, but they are very industrious and tend to engage in highly physical labor. A dwarf viking would be a bit of an iconoclast. They have traditionally been rather poor swimmers and tend to dislike open waters. Both of your models look far too wide. You also rarely see… -
