Sure glad i could help out a bit, also nice for me to think about this stuff a bit, tend to forget how important basics are. Also realized my reply was kind of rushed and bullet point style. If you want to learn more about composition a good method is trying to analyze paintings and drawings/photographs. if you get some…
Youre going to need stronger reference to get a solid likeness going. Jocelyn DeBoer unfortunately is a bit of an unknown as far as pop culture is concerned so you're going to be hurting when it comes to solid images. Things like red carpet photos, magazine spreads, etc which are usually a really good resource when it…
I like it man. I think this is a much better setup than what you had before. The thing that bugs me is how the left side bar moves if you click the links about, contact, and portfolio. Other than that, just nitpicky stuff really. Move your resume into your about page and remove everything you currently have in your about…
Looks good, Lonewolf. Some really great pieces. It doesn't matter what screen resolution people are using. A lot of people don't maximize their browser window while browsing, so making a website 1300px wide is really only accommodating to people who have 1680x1050+ screen resolutions with their browser windows almost…
Starting things simple: Well, one thing to keep in mind is that your default page should probably be named index.html. Web browsers open the index.html automatically if a page name isn't specified. As an example, when you go to google.com, you'll notice that you don't type in google.com/index.html. The browser…
Hey man, first of all, I like the second reference image way more that the first one because you cant really see anything in the first image. So its really hard to tweak the lighting with an image like that. Overall, I think I like your first shot better than the second^^ (that one feels just waaay too strong = I just make…
In the future, please use the links button rather than just pasting the address; it makes things easier for people from whom you're asking a favor. ;)boesch.weebly.com Your page layout could use some vertical space - everything feels very compressed at the moment. From the start, I'd place your title (3D Artist) on a…
Hi all! I am posting with anothing Maya issue. Hoping someone will be kinda enough to share their expertise XD. Anyway as I have mentioned in a previous post I am new to Maya, and I wish to know how to import a JPEG or PSD image into Maya as a file to use as an environmental image. I have been told the best way is to make…
Hey guys I am trying to render a custom mental ray fast sss material to a texture map, is it possible? I have been able to render a regular standard material with a diffuse and whatnot applied to it. But when I moved on to trying the mental ray skin shader material it renders out the image and I can see a flattened version…
So I read in another thread here in Technical Talk about a bundled software with Maya 2012 called QT Designer used for creating gui for Maya. I wanted to give this a go. I needed a script to begin with and decided to make a MEL script which would help and speed up the process of rendering images from Maya to later compose…
