David was not a christian, christian in the olden terms was used to ridicule people who did not believe (like today, no one is putting in 100% effort into the past, the present nor the future when it comes to the creators vision of the story), cut it out with the labels if you want to use one its a Hebrew. Also no labels…
Echo what rollin said but just wanted to add my .02cents - on say how i enter challenges so they are not a total loss. (i.e. what do i want to learn.) For the wild west challenge i wanted to attempt a fully quaded design with good edge flow - i wanted perfect edge flow but time was against me. Below i state what i did to…
Yes I could fill up a whole DVD about vegetation modeling but the vertex stuff was also new to me. :) Normally I decide what kind of tree I want to do, search references and take photos for leaves or extract textures from photos. I also decide on my poly budget (If I do a forest scene I dont go to crazy for each tree, if I…
max bias here. with the inclusion of NEX a while back maya now probably has most of the functionality i am used to (or perhaps better in some cases), although they decided to tack it on in a strange way. why did they not expose it via sub-menu and marking menu - or did i overlook that? kinda felt odd to use a mini max…
Are you actually going for only a low poly model or also high poly baked down on low poly? And do you plan to use ZBrush? I am asking because I see hard surface techniques that actually are going to make it pretty tough to get a natural organic feeling in it.

I played with a ball-and-a-cup so now I will give my child a ball-and-a-cup to enjoy as I did when I was his age. But these days the kids want to play with Toy Ray-guns, and I have people telling me not to bother because Toy Ray-guns are the future. This is all that is occurring: A parent is sharing something of value from…
Still around, still busy. We're getting a number of repeat requests now. Layer Blend Mode menu - the menu behavior is inherited from the OS controls. If the OS doesn't do it, we can't easily add the behavior. select>modify>contract/feather - because 40% of users complain when it works one way, 40% complain when it works…

Yeah I've noticed this! Was working on trying to get my chains to cast the proper shadow all night yesterday with little luck. It looked like I was getting somewhere with messing around with different material setting. I'm thinking to perhaps have the chains as just a plane and use a translucent material to see if that…
Tulk: I'm sure when you say they don't put cheap products in their system you're speaking from a common sense standpoint, which I totally understand. But speaking from experience and some EE knowledge, I can tell you that yes, they did use cheap parts. The number one cause of the 360 problems is due to a cheap part. The…
