Re: Maya High Poly Workflow? (hard surface)
I'm not sure what you mean by that? Loop and Cut tools have had pre-vis for as long as I can remember. Even in sub-d preview (hotkey 3, and I think shift-3 for cage+sub always on), the cage becomes visible one you start one of those tools. Generic tips: Set up a simple marking menu to put common tasks in, start off with a… -
building a new pc... have some questions for the technical minded.
so i'll be building a new rig soon, and i have some things in mind but really i have some questions that i guess anyone can answer if they ever had the same concerns, but also tech-heads will be able to tell me what's what. firstly, hard drives: i was planning on grabbing an SSD card, around the 30gb mark, and installing… -
Re: Sketchbook: Dj's 3d
He's to be a bit more stylized, but I'm using it as a chance to do some anatomy practice in the process (which i guess I'll destroy a bit at the end, but it's good to have a foundation). Working on a hand from scratch is a pain :) -

Re: Are business cards that go against the norm a good idea?
..I don't think I've looked at a business card in the last 10 years. people might hand them to me, but chances are the only thing they are gonna do is go through the wash in my pants pocket. I mean they are not gonna hurt you, yes make them standard size and clean looking. But I would say they are one of those 1% things… -
Re: Hello! I'm stuck making a hard surface model.
Next year? That's a tough one, but I'll try. I would like to have a better understanding of high poly to low poly workflows, workflows that involve using both ZBrush and 3dsMax/Maya, since I really enjoy the creative freedom that ZBrush provides. I want to learn how to make proper normal, AO, Diffuse and specular maps. I… -
Re: Vertical Mouse? any tips for painful hands
Hopefully I can offer some advice as someone who spent a lot of time and money trying to fix various issues I had and how I fixed them. One of the most important things I learned is that if something hurts, there is a good chance that the thing that is hurting isn't actually the problem. The arm is one long kinetic chain,… -

The ability to render through clipped pixels in the materials on the source mesh and capture underlying opaque pixels. Use cases…
