Re: SOLVED: dDO: Edge scratches/wear
Thanks guys! That actually helped quite a bit. I think I need a bunch more practice to get where I want to be... but I've figured out some good stuff for how to use dDO properly. Let me know what you think: I'm pretty sure I overdid it on the metal grunge- you can especially see it on the magazine in a few of the shots- it… -
Re: Sweden! I want Sweden!
hey guys responding back. funny looking back at this thread. when I said I was interested in Sweden i wasn't kidding haha. I've really wanted to get out of the US mainly to just see other places and experience new things. that being said I'm in the midst of the work visa process with Massive Entertainment :) I am going to… -
Re: Baking a gradient map?
Relying on VCs for all blending is very expensive for the engine. We use Vertex Alphas (VA) to blend additional dirt details into a model only when the asset is either a key 'landmark' or needs to be highly repeatable without holding up production for the same asset modified 50-odd times. We actually reversed the blend… -
Re: CE3 - Project Drift-pig
Nice Project, I am also an avid drift fan. great to see other like minded people into Art as well :D I was going to ask the next obvious question as to where the body panel seams have gone? are you floating them? Overall i think the model is looking great. personally I think maybe some of your supporting edges could be… -
Re: Self Teaching Max?
I've been using Digital Tutors for a while now and I personally find it to be worth the subscription price. Sure, you can probably find a free tutorial for just about every topic that DT covers, but what sets it apart for me is: Structured lessons (most important to me, I like to be able to look ahead and see exactly what… -
Re: Noomi Rapace as Lisbeth Salander, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.
Di$array- Thanks man, your right about the skin texture. It's just a base polypaint for now, I'll do the final work in PS, as for the head you might have a point there too. She's a very petite woman but I may have over compensated. I'll do a proportion tweak when I finish the low poly and compare. Thanks again. MM- No need… -
Re: Photoshop batch processing question
Starting with CS2 (I think) Photoshop included the ability to create very robust scripts using javascript -- think about anything where an action was not quite able to do what you wanted it to do, like conditional logic (if there is an alpha channel do this, if there isn't do this other thing). If this is just a one-time… -
Re: Laptop recommendations
I can fully recommend a Dell laptop (but get one of the manly ones with a good graphics card). I got myself an inspirion and it has worked really really great for me. Got one of the better screens aswell in it so it works quite ok. Getting a bit old now though but it can still keep up. Had no issue with support either (I… -
Re: My First...
For my female models I generally use the pinky fingers separately, but I suppose that isn't very useful for a man! I think I'll go with the mitten+index combo. Also, on the MilkShape forums it was mentioned to me that "His hands look like bear paws" so I will be resizing them. As for the pants, I've based the model on… -
Re: Zbrush book recommendation
Thanks Rick.... Glad your liking the book, the whole black and white pics thing is a shame, although that was entirely out of my control, (although I did make sure they put the full colour shots on the DVD). Plus as lots of the character stuff is on the DVD it helped to make sure the book didn't end up costing about 6…
