I would suggest to go with a heavy pass of flatten/smooth on localized areas, to erase out most of the details (yet keeping some 'in the corners' to maintain the overall feel of detailling). For instance at the moment the back view is more successful than the front view in my opinion since it has stronger areas of rest.…
I'm in idaho. I read somewhere in a local paper that we basically have 20 minutes before getting blasted with ash and whatever else that flys our way. If it happens during my lifetime, first thing I'm doing is grabbing a beer and watch the show.. really no point in freaking out about it. If it happens, it happens.…
From the places I've actually interviewed with, they usually got back to me within a week or 2, if they ever got back to me at all. The odd time here or there, I've been called back 8 months+ after my initial application. Jobs in this industry are highly circumstantial. You have to fit the experience level/demonstrate…
i did some zbrushin to his legs and crotch this weekend. i still haven't done anything to his forearms or hands. i haven't done much to his back or feet either. i didn't do the greatest job preparing my mesh for zbrush. i think i needed to make sure some of the polys were more square, rather than rectangular. i'm also…
@3DRyan: A good question, and one that hits close to home for me. I think if you're good enough a company will bring over from wherever you are. Peris got nabbed from Stockholm to California by Blizzard. I've personally been flown out to an interview fairly far away. One reason they were interested in me was that I was…
So I thought of kinda a cheeky thing to add, so I made a small story like how Mos Eisly is pretty much founded next to a crashed starship or at least in SWG it is and so my idea for this was that a AT-AT crashed and left behind from the Empire and so the locals made it into a Night Club called the "walking Camel" lol I am…
Nice clear portfolio, good job! Everything is presented well. Maybe have your contact details showing in the side bar so you the viewer can always see them. You currently have what looks like an email link in there but it doesn't work. Also add your contact email/website to all of your images incase a prospective employer…
3dsmax2015 will have a new and improved select and place but the older versions have object paint which is more like object scatter, because it isn't really all that precise and doesn't let you control the rotation of each object that gets painted, you have to come back to the painted objects and adjust their rotation. It…
I was in the 1989 movie, Shag ( http://imdb.com/title/tt0098300/ ) We were on family vacation to Myrtle Beach, where they were filming, and they needed extras for the background. I won a ton of Magic: the Gathering tournaments back in high school, to the point noone would play me. So I retired my decks and became a judge…
Nothing much to thank for, really. Sometimes it's better, sometimes not, here it's more for simplicity's sake. As for manipulating pivots, I would probably just make a checkbutton for that - I think there's some global or function returning if you are currently in Affect Pivot Only mode, but a simple checkButton should be…
