Re: Lighting suggestions
Well the problem with that is natural sun light changes every 15 min. Every 15 min the color, temperature, direction, and brightness of sunlight changes so trying use that at reference is going to be nearly impossible. Capture a photo, or a bunch, with a nice camera so you can really study the light. As for the technical… -
Re: What is your dream studio/job?
CCP Games! Iceland looks like a beautiful place to stay and I've been in love with EVE Online's art style ever since I first played the game. Internet spaceships all the way! Or Digital Extremes Warframe has the same sci-fi feel which I crave. Most importantly however, it has some of the greatest visual effects I've ever… -
Re: Your dream technological idea
How do you imagine it working? If it's anything like Star Trek, there would be a lot of philosophical problems with it basically 'killing' you as it erases you from existence then recreates you again from virtual data. We would need technology that could create a perfect 3D scan of your entire being, including every… -
Re: [UDK] The Pit (Working Title)
Nice stuff Virtuosic. I think right now the scene is too orange though this might be quick and dirty lighting and probably critting this too early. Though I think some hints of blue would look sweet. Sad I didnt see you at Digital Extremes booth at DIG. Was there thursday with college people. Was bugging people there about… -
Re: 3D Coat 3.1 update released!
but in the end you have to unwrap some mesh anyway if you want to bake it and use it for real time graphics. Ptex will start to get interesting when more tools support it and it becomes a viable option in the asset workflow or pipeline. Photoshop for example could use a serious update into the digital CG corner like a… -
Re: Best Zbrush users to learn from?
depends on what you want to learn in zbrush. Alot of amazing classes and tutorials but they are usually for specific subjects unless you do the beginner classes. Beginner tutorials are good and cheap on digital tutors. High level classes and tutorials can be found everywhere but again, it depends on what you want to learn.… -
Re: Final uni project: Realistic bust [WIP]
Thank you all very much :D It's slowly getting there. I've made the suggested adjustments. Looks much better now I think. I'm using Scott Spencer's digital sculpting human anatomy book. It's been like my bible the past couple years, so if the face looks a little overly muscular, that might be why. @Chimp This is probably… -
Re: Online courses with mentors - are they worth it?
Yeah Biomag, nails it right on the head and I also reiterate my response/s posted on your other threads. Learn anatomy whilst implementing your chosen toolset...well at least too an entry level standard otherwise the return on a $2.5k+ investment you're interested in spending will be next to negligible rather than 1/3 the… -
Re: Toy making, action figures, etc...where do you apply for that???
you will defintely need an entirely different portfolio to achieve that, your stuff needs to be quite a bit more solid and clean, less game dependent, more sculpts possibly in pose. But as with games you'd need much more experience, i'd say your work is junior level and while you would get away with that in games it will… -
Re: New to the forum, so...one of my first posts
@Hayden, part of that assignment was to use the Artificial Sun and Sky within maya. If I had had the option I wouldn't of used it, however not really my choice. I plan on taking a Digital Lighting class at my school which will really help inform my lighting. I also own the Gnomon DVD by Jeremy Vickery that talks about…
