Re: Grrr....does this ever happen to you?
well, when i said i didn't know how to use it well, that was because when i bought milkshape, i kinda dove right into it without tutorials and tried to teach myself...bad idea. so i'm gonna read up on tutorials....and, before i post a model, i'll tweak it until it looks best. oh, and milkshape is the only modeling system i… -
Re: Marlon Brando Bust
t4paN - Daz has a good tutorial that covers some info about likenesses here: http://www.daz-art.com/hi_poly_tut.htm He recommends taking stills from movies, which I should have done in hind sight instead of using crap youtube screens. Anyway, I want to write a tutorial about something, so I'll definitely consider it.… -
Re: The Blowhole
Thanks for the comments guys.. @dur23, Yeah, the renders are pretty shit. I'm working on making them look nicer, and doing a high rez beauty shot. I found this tutorial here: http://www.artemstudios.com/08Portfolio/Tutorial/MaterialRenderingTut.htm but it's for max. I wish I knew how to get a similar effect in maya.… -
Re: 2 hi poly birds / 1 stone
Nice render, I liked how Pete showed us his method of pimping his stuff at GDC, it was very informative, and really helps show off high poly stuff. For anyone interested in how to get that sort of render, here is a tutorial that explains it pretty well.… -
Re: Luger Parabellum WIP (wayyy pic heavy)

Re: A Cry For Help
What's up Zcubed, if you want to know the secret to becomming a good modeler, well the first is to start using reference and the second you are doing already which is practice. Over all you are doing a good job. Try to only put edges were there is detail. For example if you can define the shape of a curve with only 4 edges… -
Re: Eat 3D announces Next-Gen Texturing Techniques
I ended up getting this tutorial. I think this is a thorough tutorial that covers the whole process quite well. Beginners will get more out of this than advanced users. Even so it is always good to see how other people work, personally I picked up a few work-flow and management tips. The video is easy to follow except in… -
Re: INTO THE 3RD DIMENSION!
> Please Help! I've got two problems that I really need help with, I can't seem to Google my way out. All my verticies are lined up the same on the X axis, yet when I mirror anything but Scrug's body, it just seems to choose a random point to base it of, whether I mirror them separately or select them all and mirror. I… -
Re: Glacier Enviornment WIP
I'm assuming the white parts are the misty areas in the reference? I wouldn't put those directly into the terrain. They could be brought in as props or part of the sky or post effects. I'd also break the ice off as a separate piece. Hourences has a pretty decent tutorial on how to bring together a UT3 map, but he builds a…
