Hi! Thanks! :) I still need to work a little bit more on the shape, but I'm trying to be as accurate to the original one as possible. It's a sword intended to be held only with one hand, despite the size/length. I don't have too many references though, but I'm mainly checking these two images: Hope it gives you some info…
these days i fill up at around £45, $90. And that's on normal unleaded, not the super stuff i really should be using. How long that'll last me is my business ... but yeah, not so long ago petrol dahn sahf hit £4 a gallon. That's $8. And judging by how Act of War started, that's a hell of a lot more civilians callously mown…
thanks for the feedback, Ill look at the face shape some more. going for last gen spec on this one. I do feel I could add some noise and imperfections though. More in a bit... Gamestepper allows you to host your images on their server for free, so I was hoping to just link to the image file instead of laboriously putting…
well I intend to be still working games for a few years to come.I am working on my 6th game and still have the desire to do more. I know there is a texture artist in his early fifties and has been doing it around 18 years. I think you have to pace yourself though and not get burn't out. Long term I would like to get in to…
I've had some slow pays, but never had to go legal on anyone. I did have an illustration prof who gave some good working advice. He said that a simple letter from a lawyer can motivate many people, even if you don't intend to push it all the way to court. He also gave discounts to clients who paid him early. He billed them…
It will be interesting to see how Maxon intend to dress up the inevitable corporate cloud/rental-only-BS as a good thing to a user base that so far has enjoyed free updates no questions asked for decades. I would understand if the founder(s) simply wanted out after a quarter-century spent developing a now rather feature…
Hey everyone, some great work came from this challenge and I encourage those who are still working to keep going! Making it to the finish line is still the best thing even if it takes a bit more time than the challenge runs for. As October is coming to a close it's time to get to voting for the upcoming challenge 75. As…
Environment update; The environment is slowly coming together, I've started on creating the separate assets to suit the area, as well as adding brickwork to the demon door to frame it a little better Working with Niagra for the first time, and again my PC sounds like it's going to take off, so will aim for minimal use and…
Hey thanks for the tip @polypassion ! I'll definitely do that (well at least I wanted to do that for the ears cause I was already feeling that it would be a nightmare otherwise) for the facial parts that seems like the best idea for how bad I am at doing them. As for the feet and hands, for instance, I did model them in a…
Delega outlined a pretty good solution to keep it all quads but that could have some unintended consequences depending on what you plan to do with the model. You can use tri's and ngons in high poly modeling you just need to be careful how they effect edge loops (which might effect your edge selections/workflow) and…
