This thing got away from me. I know the exact moment it happened. my ears were sticking out to far from the head and I tried moving them in to get a better overall position. A) I had stepped down subdivision levels B) my higher subdivision levels all remembered the higher points after the move. So when I smoothed out the…
It comes down to 3 things: 1) Learning the theory behind the various aspect of 3D ( what are meshes composed of, why quads are better than everything else etc. ), usually theoretical stuff comes out when you start a new aspect of 3D ( ex. texturing for the first time ), when you encounter some problem ( ex. bad topology ),…
There you go with them negative waves. Have a little faith, baby. Art critique is brutal but almost always honest. Some feedback is better than other, but never lash out at those trying to provide feedback. It makes you seem immature and unwilling to grow as an artist and a person. Polycount is a community of artists that…
Don't worry about fixing, you just need to be aware of them for now. Next step is start doing gesture drawings. Don't imagine people out of thin air, you need to draw from reference. Can be real people, still, photo, etc. Fill your sketch book with tons of them.…
Thanks for advice each and every one of you, much appreciated! I carefully read everything and got to think about it as there is a lot of insights and information. That is what troubles me the most.

Rhino and Astro ... guys come on those comments are in no way helpful or even worth posting. Becoming a parent is a crazy thing and it's a huge change. A lot of people are ignorant to what to do and what not to do. This guy came here to ask an honest question so let's not flame him for that. Growing up I was right handed.…
(New post to keep it distinct from above) You'll want a good test animation. Erik (Thermidor) has created an EXCELLENT test animation for us at work that really pushes the rig to the limits - then a wee bit beyond. It does it for every joint and joint region in the body and it's fairly anamtomically correct. By this I mean…
[ QUOTE ] Until 1966, LSD and psilocybin were provided by Sandoz Laboratories free of charge to interested scientists. The use of these compounds by psychiatrists to gain a better subjective understanding of the schizophrenic experience was an accepted practice. Many clinical trials were conducted on the potential use of…
