Hey all! Just thought I'd see if anyone on these forums might know of some other places to purchase good quality 3D models online? Turbo squid has some fairly good models, but I have a feeling they mark everything up big time considering a model pack by 3drt.com is selling for $129 on their site and $269 on turbo squid.…
Hey guys, I attempted to create Mr. Incredible's nemesis 'Syndrome'. Including podium and zero-point lazer beam, triangle count is around 17k. I am attaching a Sketchfab link so you can spin him around, as well as a couple renders out of marmoset. Appreciate any C/C (hoping to turn this into a portfolio piece). Link to…

Just make sure they are set up at about 170 degrees from one another, 1 up high and 1 down low. It really helps capture everything and makes for smooth capture. Unfortunately, i have no…

Pretty sure there are thousands of ref on internet. I like to watch therpf.com forums too. Crazy guys doing ships with plastic. Lots of…
^^Just be careful of photographing anywhere even remotely near military bases. I'm not sure exactly what the rules are for photographing military bases in the US for references/art/probably safe from public spaces, but I do remember two developers from Bohemia Interactive got stuck in a greek prison for 129 days while on…
