Re: Getting disheartened
Grades and hard work don't always go hand in hand - and what does a recruiter need a piece of paper for to see how hard you work when he can look at your models? I worked in a law profession previously, so no portfolios to look at, and yet even there no one I know was ever asked about their grades at law school. Grades are… -
Re: What are you working on? 2014 Edition
Hah dude that's so cool, love the sword design ! Using lineart is fine, you can always keep it as a guide and erase it later on. Now I stop being nice and start ripping your art to shreds, hope you don't mind :) The hand angle makes no sense to me, imagine how much weight it would put on the carpal ligaments. Also how the… -
Re: Softimage/XSI- worth learning?
never tried it because I could never get my hands on it, I think that is also kind of the reason why its not that commonly used as Max or Maya. People work with what they learned using well. If a software is to expensive or hard to get other ways (you know...) it fails in the big run because not many people will adopt it.… -
Re: Why outrourcing studio doesnt give creditis to artists?
a multitude of reasons are possible here - strict clauses in contracts on client side forbidding it - cooperations on even higher up level than client side forbidding it - marketing might want a word in each and every bit of official info out there, complicating it all - outsourcers not negotiating in favor of "their"… -
Re: Hard Surface and Organic Modeling - Liquor Store
The problem with saying "its good for a 2nd 3D class" is that you fall into the trap of "oh we're students" and never step up to the pro level. When they hand out A's for that kind of work people get lulled into a false sense of success. You'll be up to speed a lot faster if you hold yourself to a higher standard early on.… -
Re: MightyBake Tool Announce
Hi, Rob! I've recently tried Mightybake and was really impressed by the functionality and speed of baking! Great job, man! I'd like to give a little feedback to make it work even better! 1) The ways MB/Maya and Xnormal/Max limit the rays distance and direction are quite different. In xnormal or max we have to manually… -
Re: Block in Diablo scene
Hey again Jordan, I was thinking a lot the same as tda however I have a problem with some of his green lines, I was about to do the redlining but then i scrolled down and saw he already handled that haha. The only green line I would get rid of would be the bottom one on the handle, i say bottom because assuming an axe was… -
Re: NVil(1.0) Released
Is there any way to stop Nvil from adding hard edges all the time? I want to add those by hand, and maybe just have a shader setting with an angle treshold for during modeling. I've set Hard Edge treshold to 0 and 180, and neither makes a different, I keep getting hard edges all the time. For instance when bridging. edit:… -
Re: M1928 Tommy Gun (WIP)
Hello ! :) A few things : -Did you make a high poly for the whole gun ? the wooden parts(Handle, etc) looks like they just have average normal map without any baked data. And I don't have any reference under the hand but I doubt they were that square-ish. -I think your metal texture have to strong scratches. And those… -
Re: KT-s747 (ZBrush Pistol)
I'd be very interested in knowing how you did the handle, specifically. Those sorts of organic/hard surface shapes, where the shape is very consistent and follows a bunch of organic curves is the kind of stuff I'm currently having issues with. The hard, geometric shapes can be built out of clip brushes, masks, shadowbox,…
