Re: m7 Maveric [WIP]
Oh man, some sweeet modelling over here. Can't wait to see it textured. It looks to me that your working in 3DSMax. Well, it applies to Maya as well, but when I`m modeling the HP stuff, I always keep my modifier stack intact/I don't delete the history so I can go back easily and remove the HP details to get my low poly. If… -
Re: Creating a very specific type of rock...
If you haven't stumbled across these yet they might be helpful, I forget where I found them but I managed to bookmark them at some point, probably just googling around. http://stephenjameson.com/tutorials/tiling-rock-tutorial/ http://picasaweb.google.com/TheEnolaJay/ZBrush3PolyPaintingTutorialI#5325724297275475186… -
Re: Curves to planes.
I assume you're using Maya since you're saying curves instead of splines? But just in case, I'll answer for both... For Maya: This plug-in is great http://www.polycount.com/2014/02/26/geo-maya-hair-2/ You don't generate cards from hair, but hair from cards. You can then unwrap and bake the hair down to the cards, if you… -
Re: Transform me into an advanced modeler!
Those models are by this person https://www.artstation.com/artwork/kit-bash They look to me like subdivision surface models. We have a lot of good resources for learning subd techniques on our wiki. http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Subdivision_Surface_Modeling Some people prefer using Zbrush only to create hard surface… -
Re: Bodypaint 3D & 3DS Max
Hey Neevah,let me re-evaluate everything. I have tried this on xp 64 bit, with max 2009 64bit and cinema 4d 11 with bodypaint the new plugin is not compatible with bodypaint 3.1.the exisiting plugin which comes with 3.1 doesnt work in max 2009 64bit.

Re: Noe_Serrano (prop busts)
Alberto Rdrgz: My progress for the leather was all on the base mesh before I took it to Zbrush. Here's the couch base mesh before Zbrush, I spend about 4 hours in zbrush pseudoBug: Done, I went back and made it a little more inflated :) cholden: Thanks ZacD: Thanks, I use 3dsmax before Modo and I don't think I can go back… -
Re: Maxscript Function Orders
@monster: Hmm tried that code and get the same scope issue unless i make the rollout global. From my understanding on the scope, anything inside the macroscript definition is considered a local or separate scope from global. In regards to scope, heres some good reading from the documentation. Generally if you just google… -
Re: Dr Grordbort Infallible Aether Oscilator - FMOM Wave Disrupter
spider2544: With baking from high to low, and avoiding the crappy edges you get, this is what I do: Add more geometry to the low poly. I'm not sure how to do it in Maya, but in 3dsMax Id just use the Meshsmooth modifier, so it will interpolate between edges and smooth that round area out, but doesn't mess up the UV's. Then… -
Re: Vehicle - 1980s Landrover Series III
Thanks for the comments so far guys. Southpaw: Someone at CGTalk also mentioned that I should round out the wheel well. I'll do that. Drav: I agree my textures look like butt :p . These are screengrabs from 3dsMax and I'm thinking that it might only be displaying them at 1024 in the viewport, I'll have to check. Anyways, I… -
Re: Monthly Environment Art Challenge - July & August 2017 (49)
@Zlivingston if the camera is coming out of the robot's head and there are no indentation (like the examples posted by @FinnIsengardt and @philipp.bogdanovskiy why not make it a floating geometry? :O I believe the normals will bake quite well if you know what you are doing, are should it really be just one solid continuous…
