Re: Sketchbook: System404
Sorry to go into a big tangent about swordfighting in your thread, but its something i'm super nerdy about: If the sword was really THAT heavy, there would be no way to move your body effectively behind it -- imagine trying to chop someone apart with a 50 pound barbell. You would get annihilated. For those clean, smooth,… -
Re: Need help with perspective
If you take the horizon line which is currently crotch level for the guys standing and most of the scene, and check to where that is flush on the girl you'll notice their crotches are all about the same level.

Re: ZBRUSH 4R8 Lasso mask issue
The image explains exactly why this happens. The lasso always cuts straight through the object to mask both sides. It does this regardless of the symmetry axis, and uses the current screen view / orientation.

Re: Contemporary "art"

Re: [WIP][Zbrush] Photo real Character model (Erica Linder)
Looking at what you have, the 3 biggest things I notice are: the mouth, the chin/jawline, and the brow. I've done a quick sketch over your reference and the model to show you what I mean: Mouth The eyes are a great landmark to use for figuring out mouth proportions. I've drawn 2 lines from the corner of the mouth: one… -
Re: This post may be killed, but I have no regrets.
It seems that your approach to trying things is flawed. Right now, your process appears to be going something like this: 1) Think of something to attempt. 2) Attempt it. 3) Show the results to others to see if you've succeeded. 4a) If they like it and tell you how great you are, go to step 5. 4b) If they don't like it and… -

Static Mesh copy (alt+click drag) removes Material. help!
when I alt+click drag my gizmo to duplicate a mesh - it will remove the material from the object. Only does it on 2 or 3 meshes that I have imported along with about 7 others - all using the same material. Also, I noticed that UDK is removing the .FBX from the static mesh name. Is it auto creating an instance or something?… -
