Re: Pan's Labyrinth
Sorry to bring up a dying thread but I just saw the movie last night. Looooved the characters. My question though is who was Pan? There's the Faun, the toad, the Pale man, the root baby, the fairies,... which was Pan? The actor that played the Faun and the Pale man (same fella) did a great job. My favourite scene out of… -
Re: Max-to-Maya migration tips?
The single most odd thing about Maya is all the 'secret stuff' about how it works that doesn't seem to be documented. The hypershade ( which happens to make Max's materials editor pale into insignificance in comparison ) is a weird one for example. After using this software for about 4 years I totally accidentally realised… -
Re: Biker Girl
I definately think its the hair that's giving her the older female look just as Vailias stated. I really like the jacket and the gloves, but I'm not a big fan of the pants or the leggings or whatever it is. It doesn't seem to sit well with me. If she was wearing just the jeans without the leggings I think it would look a… -
Re: MAX-Dope sheet issue: note tracks (image provided)
The 3ds Max dope sheet isn't doing this. It's a 3rd party tool that's creating custom attributes. Check to see what scripts you have installed. In the dope sheep you can go to View > Filters and uncheck Static Values. This should hide them. If you want to delete them you can try this line of script: It may not delete them,… -
Re: A realtime portrait
Hey longhi, Wow, this is absolutely breathtaking. That slightly sad look on his face is really life-like. Really love the skin shader. The SSS effect is looking great as well. The only thing that looks slightly off are the really small hairs on his face + the ones sticking out from underneath his shirt. They gradient… -
Re: [WIP] Norwegian Mountain Cabin - UE4 Game art
WIP Rough/macro sculpt of the tree-log for the roof. Going into detailed sculpt; I have a question regarding the process and amount of detailing to sculpt, vs texturing: Would it perhaps be better to do all the fine detailing in Subtance designer, and rather focus on the macro shapes in sculpting only? I always wonder what… -
Re: UDK scene: Ancient temple - Sanctum (WHEN ENTERING THIS THREAD, CRITIC!)
I think the ground stone was is too over scaled and a little uneven, if you're going for the overgrown look have some vines and the roots of trees interweaving through those huge stones. You also need a background blocker 2 or 3 layers at incremental distances to create ambiance. Some texture variation in the walls would… -
Re: Hardsurface artists: The world famous Maya vs 3ds max conflict in a diffrent way...
Also as u might see by my models..... they are not very complex.... I truly think Maya isnt layout for super detailed work such as this (made in max): IDK if its just me or Maya but I am always scared to model complex things(this might sound extremly noobish and childish) but I think the root of the problem is that I feel… -
Re: vote UNION: yes
Oh, believe me, I know. On kind of a tangent, I think part of the root of this discussion comes back to mentality more than ideology. You mention LA where people would be spoon-fed if they could hire somebody to do it. I live in the mountains and hunt my own food "because I can, dammit". Somewhere, I wonder if the… -
Re: [FOLIAGE] ~ My fourth attempt at making trees, I'd use some critique and advice...
What references are you using? And what style are you aiming for? Right now, my critique is; - Where are the roots? - Your lighting is coming from above, so I can't see the bark/trunk of the tree. It just looks like a cylinder and the textures look black and grey. - Trees grow upwards, they don't follow the angle of the…
