My portfolio has been slowly coming togather (rending everyting out nice and Globaly illuminated like.) But today I…
Hi Polycount, I'm kind of a new member to this forum and actually also to 3D. I started studying Digital Arts & Entertainment here in Belgium in September 2011.. 3D really caught my interest, since then I decided to become better & focus on 3D. Don't expect too much of it since I only started recently. Please don't be…
Max is really quirky. I really like vertex paint, u know its similar to polypaint in zbrush. Makes u bother less about uvs. It makes me wonder about uv textures painting. I am begining to feel zbrush devs knew what they were doing when they decided to go with polypaint rather than uvs like mudbox and other 3d apps. I do…

Hey polycount! I've recently been gathering ideas about making a 3D sidescroller game. I have many ideas for it, and will probably be looking for a 3d-modeller and graphics designer in the near future. My question is, how would you start? Would you use an engine like UDK or CryEngine to put it all together? What sort of…

Hi Polycount! I have some questions about HeadUs UV Layout. 1. With H i can Hide the previously marked objects. But what is the Hotkey for Unhide all? 2. With D i can Drop 3D Objects from 3D Space to the UV Editor. When the Flatten Mapping Result is bad, how can i send the Object back to 3D Space to make new cuts? I dont…

It was a work done for a clients and today I got a message from him saying the game is currently APP of the week in the US Apple store! O_o!! Then I would like to share with you the…
So I have been having this concern , if I should really study 3D Animation or if i can do it on the side , while studying in a university . Of course many people will say that it will be very difficult if you learn it on the side along with studies , which need energy and time and especially if you'd work alongside so that…
