Anyone here tried Mainframe Bool for Maya?
Looking to buy the plugin. I was just wondering how does it behave on more complex geo? Does it break when there are alot of boolean nodes? I have seen the video they posted on Vimeo but they are pretty much working with bunch of primitive shapes like cubes and cylinders. -
Re: Daily sculpts from the dungeon.
Hi CallumBaws and thank you for the kind words! :) For the armor I sculpted the rough shapes and then I think I zremeshed it as low as I could. After that I tweaked it to the shape I wanted and creased the edges with the zmodeler brush. For the Golden trim bits I simply copied the armor and inflated it -1 under deformation… -
Re: Tim Minchin, stand-up.
Yeah, Tim Minchin is awesome :) UK people might recognise him a bit recently since he was on Never Mind The Buzzcocks a couple of weeks ago. If you like him then you should also like Bill Bailey (although he's a bit more well-known!). -

Re: Need feedback to improve my portfolio pieces :)

Re: Maya grid size
I tried here, in Maya 2009, and it worked well. Maya didn't trim 0.0078125 ( 1/128 ). -
Anyone tried the new modeling tools from Zbrush?
What you can say? he can replace older workflows, like using third party software for modeling and transfer to zbrush? -
Re: Leaving Solace - environment exercises
like the glowing orbs, really focusses the scene, marble trim doesnt seam right though, needs to be split up so that it seams to be made from blocks of the stuff, also seams an odd design to have it cut through the paved section, pepole would trip on this, its a fuckin health and safty hazard, building regs would be…
