And that someone was me! Yeah, for something like this which is constructed out of multiple distinct shapes lumped together, I'd certainly start it out as seperate pieces, and merge it later to work on the shape as a whole. It's just so much easier to work on the planes of each seperate bit, without running the risk of…
Doesnt understand it too. Buying so many people without income from 3d Industry a modelling tool? I mean many people doodle around, have no time or real ambition but think that 3d art is fantastic. When i looking at Snefers Modo works i say "yes let me doodle with Mesh fusion!" but then i see the price tag. I have no…
Nice Stuff! Love Dubstep, since I started making music a long journey brought me to Dubstep. I like the Variations... here are some Mixes I've liked: [ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3YohFIzAhc"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3YohFIzAhc[/ame] (and all the other GoingQuantum Podcast stuff has nice stuff in it.) And…
you should be interested in what you do. just dont get too attached to the project as a whole instead be passionate about the asset you are assigned. to us, the artists we care more about the art itself. to a studio head/manager/CEO it is a business meant to make profit. if they are not satisfied with the profit then…
Honestly to me, university in general just feels like an expensive hyped up high school. A lot of people have been telling me that I'll learn a lot in university when in reality, all of my classes are pretty much useless and I just have to self-teach myself everything. At this point I'm just finishing my CS degree so I can…
Thanks. :) I tend to go a bit overkill with my bakes. In XNormal I had this set to 4K, 256 casts, 4x Anti-Aliasing so the AO result is quite nice in the end. Had to bake two of them as well - one for when the scanner's open, and one for closed; as it's a still render (but I have done the animation for the open-close…
As others have said, the screws should be resting on top of the metal plates, and not look like they've been punched in, bending the material underneath. They are screws after all, not rivets. The screws on the head have a round groove around them in your model. This way, they would not hold anything together. In the…
Heya man, he's looking pretty durn cool! I'd say you're actually pretty on-track with the dorsal section aside from two minor changes. * I would recommend nixing nonagonal 'frame' around the dorsal fin. I'm not sure it's super necessary to the design and removing it to show more of the actual body underneath reminds the…
Yea, I want to have a tiled floor to the level of this: I will give zbrush a try for the button detail! I took the advice to add a white vase and some plant life, and then combined the two. lol. It isn't the pope! Just some guy with white hair, but I started to see the pope too after you mentioned it. XD More progress!…
Did a quick paintover of some of the things that MightyPea suggested, probably pushed it a bit too far even. I think pushing the difference in the two types of metal on the armor is one of the most important things to polish this guy up. Making the grey metal more like a darker painted metal to contrast with a lighter…
