I think it's partly because humanity does as humanity do; society as a whole will always take something good and new; decentralized currency (crypto), generative AI, and use these tools selfishly, instead of bettering society as a whole. Mbauer17's knee-jerk reaction is expected, considering what we've seen. I would have…
@Vastra thanks, I love HL2's style (well nowadays Alyx), plus trains are always cool. I am trying out a faint light on the character and adjusting colors a bit @TorQue[MoD] i think mid poly hard surface is a great use for nanite. Of course if it's too low poly, like huge parts with a few tris, the nanite culling will…
Well its been week after week before realizing I'm just too shy to show some of my work after seeing what other people are working on here, but oh well.. I think I'll have to get over it some day, right? :) Well here, let me show you what I did last week. its a fast turntable capture on marmoset, 6100 polys. what do you…
A minor point, but the rope coils shouldn't be perfectly vertical - offset them to one side by (roughly) the width of the rope and it will look like a continuous coil, rather than a series of rings. I'd also move the handle on the wheel towards the edge a bit to provide a bit more torque. The bucket is rather large…
2 years ago I read a book about cloud computing, the big server complexes being built in Washington state, and how this is all gonna change the world by making it so that all you need is a keyboard and a monitor (or mobile equivalent) to do all your computing. This book was frightening because that means every office…

It was possible to see all parameters and…
Hey all, I've been looking into possibly selling 3D prints using Shapeways: http://www.shapeways.com/sell Sounds like getting started is pretty low-risk. You provide the 3D file, they print and ship it to the customer every time it gets purchased. Has anyone found success selling custom jewelry/pendands/statuettes etc??
Well put together site, should be strong once it's all complete, but what's the purpose of the site? To get a job as a character modeler? Digital Artist seems too vague, and your portfolio is mostly 3d art. Not sure if having that 2d section helps sell you. (rabbit studies image broke) I'm against splash pages. When an…
My friend and I have been slowly developing a new tower defense game with the C4 engine, tentatively called Monsters, in our free time and now we're looking for some outside help. The basic idea is you control a pirate ship manned by Monsters, sailing around on an alien planet looking for treasure. But every time your ship…
So anyway I moved to the new place a while back and things have been hectic ever since. One of the things I kept meaning to get around to was air conditioning. As it was, my router overheated every fifteen minutes. Two months go by and I finally got the air conditioner. I took it home and started assembling it, once I…
