Re: Critique for a dance animation
Dances are very challenging and highly recommend using reference. If you do have reference you could post that as well, it would help critique it knowing the source. The main thing to focus on is weight and timing. There are a few parts in here that seem a bit too quick. F60-130 has a lot of pose changes for example.… -
Re: PC Community Feedback: Petrol/Blood (and contests in general)
If you were interested but didn't enter, what was the reason? I simply didn't have time for it, too much IRL stuff. How did you feel about the deadline? It seemed fair and appropriate, not rushed but not drawn out given the scope. How did you feel about being restricted to specific software? This seemed like a great way to… -
Re: Lyla - scifi game character WIP
The nasolabial folds are quite wide; they rarely extend much past the corners of the lips, and have a distinct curve dictated by the muscles of the cheek and around the lips. The are also very deep; you'll rarely see that much definition in a young and healthy female. Her eyebrows don't have the distinct sculpted arc of… -
Re: Ok, seriously though (Biped curves?)
Gawd, it's been forever since I animated with Biped. So you're going to want someone else here to chime in with more info. But you should look into Out Of Range types for looping. They do exactly what's in the screenshot there, extend the animation beyond the keys.… -
Re: The Monthly 'Newb' CHARACTER Challenge | July 2014 | Multiple Pieces
Silver Spade:It looks nice. I think the normal map is good, but try to get rid of the triangles between the gaps and corners on the body. Tweaking the cage helped me a lot with the same problem. And for the PBR-Physically based rendering, I am not sure if I would explain it correctly. Read this:… -
Re: What do you lot think of Modo?
I've loved modo since I bought it right when 601 came out. It does rely heavily on the amazing scripts that have already been mentioned in here. I find myself doing more and more work in modo, then just bringing into maya for final touchup/ engine export (cryengine.) One of the biggest things that irks me though (among… -
Re: Mastering Unreal Technology
IIRC, Volume 2 was released but Volume 3 was abandoned due to UDK being released. As far as I know, the first 2 were based on the UE3 editor that came with most of the Epic games that were built on UE3, and although the engine is the same, I presume since the first two books were based on UE3, they didn't want to 'screw up… -
Re: how to increase density on mesh only on...
I saw it done very nicely in a Lightwave DVD some time ago. http://www.thegnomonworkshop.com/store/product/339/The-Secrets-of-Organic-Modeling It seems like Lightwave has a very simple tool letting one add geometry just where needed. Iirc it wasnt something max has, but it was easy to replicate (forgot the exact topology).… -
Re: [WIP] Catwoman
Is there a reason you made her african american? Cuz I don't get that vibe from the concept. Unless you are just deviating and doing your own thing. I think she still looks pretty solid so far. Her proportions still feel a bit thick to be catwoman, esp in her legs IMO. You could taper her legs thinner at her ankles to keep… -
Re: Quick Head Sculpt - Wrinkles and Face Detailing
I think my biggest issue when it comes to sculpting realistic heads is eye size. Since I'm used to creating stylized characters, I have a habit to making the eyes rather large. When I try to counter that instinct, I make the eyes too small (or what feels like too small.) Then I counter that by making them larger again.…
