Hi MGHMahoney. Great work on the gun. Couple of things I noticed: there could be some more wear/tear on the frame as it seems too pristine at the moment. The cylinder end below the sight on the low-poly model looks a little too low, especially if it were to be in the first-person perspective. Also, your high-poly has a lot…
it is improving a lot with your every screen. I understand that you will later add some more clutter with fat cables and such? i think the frame over the spider feels a bit weak but has a nice shape overall. is this a construction\repair room i suppose? lighting and colour scheme are looking pretty solid but maybe if you…
If you're still looking for ideas:: Try using the 'Link Constraint'. Go to the frame where you first attach the weapon to the hand. Select the weapon, click the 'Add link' button in the 'Motion' command panel Select your hand or whereever you'd like the weapon to attach to. Then, when your ready to unlink the weapon from…
because the back of that slide is curved and has such fine detailing in how it's cut to fit the rails on the frame, the easiest way to work with it imo is gonna be to define the curve of the back very densely, with a lot of edges, and then cut the frame grooves into that. if you try to do it with too little geo, as you've…
Still pluggin' away. Render times are monsterous. The weird seam on the frame there is from the mirrored UV map. To fix it i'd have to remap the frame which i'm kinda past doing. Got about a minute and a bit of footage and most of the enviroment made. Organic stuff ain't my thing so stuff like trees, shrubs, grass etc is…
The lower right frame you posted definitely shows a semi-auto with a reciprocating slide portion at the upper rear of the pistol (Bertie's even racking the slide in the bottom right). You can see the vertical grooves on it for grip in that panel and in the two frames closest to it. I can definitely see something in the top…
Here's an update. I got sidetracked from the finishing the zbrush part, when I found myself with some downtime at work, and I started to model the stained glass frames. I originally was just going to do them in Photoshop, but I was going to have to basically remake the frames in Photoshop, so I decided why not make them…
The last 8 episodes of the Clone Wars Cartoon (maybe with the exception of the R2/3PO stuff) was awesome. But yeah, the finale was also my favorite. Have you yet watched that fight frame by frame? Sick. I really like the stormtrooper helmet design in the pics...kinda in-between Ep2 and Ep4. After reading that last…
Thanks guys! Was worried as this is the first time trying hand painted technique and first time using a wacom. Not sure I'm doing it right still to be honest. When I first started using it, it was like using felt-tip pens, when I wanted it to be water colours. chrisradsby-thanks Jeffro- had a quick look at your link and I…
It's good advice for some of the kanji, but you can't build a 100% logical system from it. Well you can, but it won't exactly be logical logical, just a messed up logical based on stories you made up :p And that's not a bad way of learning it, that's what the Heisig method teaches. A common type of example would be…
