Hey! Great step to start posting online. It's a really good habit to have since you'll learn to communicate about your work, making nice screenshots (even the WIP ones!) and getting feedback :+1: This is a great start so far! Right now it could really help to flesh out your meshes and blockout so you can see how the scene…
I am learning Maya more but it's sorta hard to just start creating off the bat. With 3ds Max i am able to find the objects I want to lay down and start creating objects. I know Maya is used in college more than Max but do you have any advice for a starting modeler?
Hi! I open this thread with the intention of post all of my wips and finished works, this way all of u could tell me things to improve in every character/prop, opinion, etc. I will start with a concept of the IP "Anima" ------> https://draco94.deviantart.com/art/Anima-bone-picker-89478264 This is what i got so far, I'm…
Hi! Tbh I'm not sure how okidoki's example can help add noise to animation curves, I mean with some technical knowledge you could hack together some kind of node network that would grab a position of a point from a noise texture and use it to drive a position of a controller on an animation curve, but I shudder to think…
Thnaks for the advice, looks like the 4080 it is . I was a bit concerned about the later RTX cards for the reason you mentioned ie overheating. can't afford to buy a fancy brick :) Not sure what GB the 4080 is, would be good to get 24 , though more likely 16
After updating to 2.3.2 I go into NDO to work and it keeps hiding everything after nearly any updates... add a selection convert to normal go back, tools are gone... garf
Okay. I am excited now. Especially for later seasons. I want to see missiles, drones, and quadruped robots all fight. I want to see MIT Cheetahs fight to the death. (that might be decades away but I don't care.) Ohh. Imagine if somebody did a rocket fuel flame thrower. That would be so rad. High powered lasers would be…
Howdy guys Ok so ive been working on my lightsabre for the challenge most of the afternoon,I got carried away (blah blah) turned it into some normal mapping practise..blah blah...and now ive got stuck...well not stuck but wondering which of these would be a viable option. Basically my low poly model has gone way over the…
A blockout how I first thought the shield would expand: Now I think it the first layer is folded in and only the second one is pulled out. For stabilization, I imagine there's vertical supports in that drop down once unfolded, leading to both a stand and vertical stiffness (middle joint that allowed them to fold is now…
Most of the time when I make painting nowadays, I tend to do it like a 3d engine. So first I paint the color info only (diffuse maps). I add my shading, shadows, on a separate white base later set to multiply. Than my speculars and reflections, starting out with a black layer set to linear dodge(add). Any bounce light and…
