Yeah I've had alot of trouble with using background images in the past, so I really heavily rely on using planes for reff imgs. But I just want to ask: Sticky inc? I can see this thread becoming a "3dsmax for smart people" of sorts. Anyways good to hear from Mark about the new graphite tools as one of my clients has…
I like it... for Photoshop. But that's really only because Photoshop currently comes in a photography package that is only $10 a month. IIRC photoshop CS6 was $700 for a permanent license, meaning at the current subscription price you'd have to subscribe for nearly 6 years to get to spend the equivalent amount of money on…
Everything is working right now to me , I know that you are still in blocking but I think everything is good. When you get to polish try to arc the hands and overlap them. This part looks good but I wonder if it will look better to speed the right foot to boost more his acceleration at sec 2 ( or maybe is correct and it…
IIRC the iMacs/Apple Displays use LED IPS panels so while they're not necessarily better than any other IPS display, they would probably look noticeably impressive to anyone used to a non-IPS panel. In any case, they're pretty gorgeous screens when you see them up close... I'd probably buy one if the available spec wasn't…
Another WIP of today's fixes and issues. Added arcing ground smoke, changed the sparks as well as adding threshold points to them, also gave them an increased lifespan and bounce. Made a few other changes here and there too. I wonder what people think about the increased brightness for the embers at the back. Is it too…
Changing the profile on your monitor affects the curve that's applied to values in the image when it's displayed - not the image itself. Setting them all to the same base ICC profile might well work out with them matching. What you don't know is whether it'll look right on other screens When you calibrate the monitor a…
The Joan of Arc tutorial is still hands down my favourite for getting a good handle on character modeling. Also, Scott Spencer's ZBrush anatomy book is absolutely awesome. It's not really a 'how to use ZBrush' but more of a 'how to sculpt great anatomy in ZBrush. The DVD that comes with it is great too.…
While I don't know if I can reproduce all the capability of that app, I can definitely add in some related baking options. My first step in that direction will be adding in multiple HP/LP sources with enable/disable functionality. Will look into fbx export, iirc pipelineIO (which i'm currently using) doesn't support the…
So much wrongness. Blizzard is 100% owned by ATVI, just like IW. ATVI owns them and all their IP and all of their souls. Blizzard has been owned by various companies for a very long time - throughout all of their big hits. http://www.mobygames.com/company/blizzard-entertainment-inc/history ATVI has chosen to leave Blizzard…
One thing that bothers me about this is how monotone the material is. I've looked at the reference and see its pretty much all just painted flat matte black irl, so this isn't really a problem with your art per say, its just the rk62 on its own is a bit boring. I would suggest adding an add-on scope/sight/grenade…
