Hey there. I'm an amateur artist of minor talent looking for advice and instruction on how to improve my 3D skills (primarily in XSI Modtool, though I also have GMax installed). I'd love to get some advice from you fine folks in Polycount, but given the average quality of submissions to the Pimping and Previews subforum…
Greetings everyone!

And now as I'm finishing high school I mostly focus…
if you want to use it in udk, you really need to reduce the polycount. a few thousand would be good for the final model.and for the uv's.dont use automatic uv mapping.because it breaks the uvs almost randomly, and its really hard to texture.learn to uving first, and then go to modeling assets for games engines.proper uvs…

There are several polycounters here with 3D printers for hire. I've got a Rostock MAX, which is kind of unique for A) having a very large vertical cylindrical build volume and B) being a delta format printer that doesn't move the printed part as it works. It's great for figurines and sculpts. I've currently got ABS, I can…

The title says it all. I would like to collaborate with someone to enter the Dota 2 Polycount Contest. I've got some ideas to throw around, but I don't know how to put 'pen on paper' as you would say. I have never touched 3D drawing. Though I am pretty adept at drawing with a pencil. If that helps. I don't know, I just…
I was looking for inspiration for a robot to model for my portfolio and came across Ben Mauro's concepts. I loved them, the big orange one especially, so I made a 3d model and got his permission to post on here for feedback. I'm hoping to get him to game resolution before GDC. Does anyone have any suggestions for…
