yeah construction is a good way to start thinking. another way look at it is start rendering volumes, as apposed to lines that *hopefully make up an image. you need to re-wire your brain is to get away from all of this line work, and start drawing more volumes. Do a cast drawing maybe?. find a white (plaster) statue, put a…
Only critique on the door knocker is that you should use more reference material on the nose/mouth area. I assume you are doing a lion the nose/ mouth needs to be bigger and the nose needs to blend in around the nostril area. Currently it looks like a bear except for the mane. When you do a Google search for lion statue,…
Yep, its ONE of the reasons I stopped using Xrefs. Just wait until it refuses to update the model and gives you a little X instead, and the only way to clear it is to restart 3dsmax. I'd rather cut my pinkies off then suffer working with Xrefs again... Autodesk spread a rumor around that they fixed and upgraded the Xref…
I got the E74 error just after Christmas, and 2 weeks after the 1 year warranty was up. Nice timing for the 360 to crap out. Well I can tell you it wasn't the AV cables as running either component, or HDMI resulted in the same error. It did however work after the first time I got the error. Worked for 2 minutes and the…
atm I am packed with work, so it would likely be something for january... the main problem here is that I need to some ugly university tasks, where my motivation is already low, and if I start with this now I am doomed (then again, I shouldnt have brought it up). seriously so I must resist and postpone this. It would be…
What can't Geek Squad handle? Data backups? I wish we could see how she behaved and how she treated best buy employees and know the full story. This lady could be a total bitch and personally I know that managers don't go out on a limb to help people that are total assholes and treat the Best Buy employees like shit. And…
Spontaneously thinking, you need to push your values more. There's a lot more I could give but it would be easier if you stated what you're trying to achieve with your work. What are you most interested in learning etc? And as you stated yourself, since your fundamentals are weak you need to do loads of studies. Draw stuff…
Ok thanks! So that would seem to be consistent with other people who are getting the save bug too (having the scene file in a different location than the textures). The Undo bugs make sense, how we do undo is basically just saving the raw state of the scene, so if the file paths aren't saving correctly, and the visibility…
I had to do something similar when I was new with UDK. The trick I came up with is to lerp between to texture coordinates. One being the open state, the other being the closed state. That may not be the best approach, but it worked for me. Hope this helps! Edit: Now that I actually thought about it for a minute, you could…
really depends on your situation (like if you're able to get a work visa and so on)I know we recently hired a french concept guy, so its not impossible for people from outside the states to get a job here, that said we will look at the people who are local first, and your stuff has to be much more impressive if you're…
