Hello Everyone, first id like to greet everyone as I am new to the community. I'm currently working on a 3D scene for my portfolio and in that scene, I have a floating object that I want to connect to a wall with a metal chain. What I have done is modeling chain parts and stringing them together, and giving them rigid…
Hey! Just wanna post some stuff I'm working on for an atoll scene I'm building with 3DS Max and UDK! Feedback appreciated! The premise is that some dude crash landed a la Lost on an island and has to use the wreckage and environmental resource to survive. First is an obsidian knife with a bamboo and canvas hilt Wooden…
Hi, I'm quite excited to join my first challenge on Polycount. Above is my first speedpaint for this challenge, my theme is "the ARQ". It's a vast storage depot where samples of all the lifeforms in the universe are stored and saved for eternity. The interior is going to be much like a futuristic frozen warehouse with a…
How accurate do you make your models? Lately I've been challenging myself to reproduce things very accurately by gathering loads of reference and without using floating geometry etc. (only for personal projects obviously) It does take a lot longer to finish projects but I enjoy the challenge. For example counting the…
Hi Guys! I decided its finally time for me to post up an actual scene. I've posted a few props here and there but I've always been kind of nervous to post up more than that. I know that is the way to get better though, by getting feedback. Anyways, this is a cryogenic environment I've been working on in UDK. This is pretty…
hey guys and gals, inspired by all the awesome hand painted characters floating aroung I thought I'd give it a go myself. This character is based on a concept by marko djurdjevic for parasytic moon. I'm using bodypaint for the first time and I'm loving every second of it, however I'm unable to display the alpha properly in…
I can't think of any other way to do it apart from add boatloads of geo and boolean the shape. How can I put txt into a sphere shape? I CAN'T USE FLOATING GEO, I got this in my last thread and the discussion of this is not wanted! I need it in the sphere for animation purposes and purposes known to me. So help me with ONLY…
Hey all, working on a new scene for a class project and thought it would be wise to get a thread going, keep track of my progress and get some opinions from a great variety of artists. As of now I am in the infant stage of the project, attempting to nail down the Scale, Silhouette and the Basic internal shapes I would…
Hi guys, stumbled on a problem here I fail to find solution to. I have a particle emitter for a kind of "energy orbs", which spawns one orb that is supposed to follow the player (I thought we achieve this by attaching the emitter to the player). Problem is that once spawned, the particle ignores the movements of the…
Hey there ! I really need a environement piece for my portfolio, so I did a little concept (I did this with an iPad because I didn't have my computer at that moment :) ) It's really a rough one, I intend to do more detailed sketches But from that base, I made this little blockout in Max And I just started to make some…
