I like it. An idea you might like is to have the hand that is plucking the strings on the cello be robotic for 'maximum efficiency'. (And don't make it cheesy robotics either, come up with some more creative than 5 rods with joints sticking out of a metal slab.) Also, he might look good sporting a fancy hat (or a…
I have a really bad habit of skipping from one shiny thing to the next without finishing anything ever and this isn't really conducive to like, getting a portfolio done or really ever having anything to show off, but rather than having a new thread for each thing I'm working on I think I am just going to keep all my p&p…
Maybe I'm in the minority here too but I don't think Apple has an iron grip on its iphone/pad users like it thinks. The cry for multitasking was pretty loud. The anger over AT&T's network blowing ass was across the board. Apple is in an awkward position of no longer wooing customers, but maintaining their user based and…
Firstly. Sorry for long post. Hope it aint too boring or pointless. Ok. I'm a "Jack of all trades, Master of None". Which has proven to be very handy, as I like being able to adapt to new skills and it also helps me get jobs having a wide variety of skill. But its always been my goal to specialise at some point. I've been…
Do you guys ever notice that most full time developer positions require previously shipped titles to be considered? It's actually quite rare these days to find a job that doesn't encourage or require existing industry experience! If you are a skilled programmer or particle FX artist, we have a solution for you: Emotional…
Alright! Let's see what we can do here. I decided I wanted to try and do an integrated robot/flying machine sort of deal. I was inspired a bit by Machine Head from Redline. This is him: and here's my 20 minute blockout: I think I might want to put some guns or something along the top of the engines, to make them look more…
Hi guys, I'm looking for some advice please: I've hit a bit of a wall with the tree creator and getting branches to join properly at their base. I'm creating some gnarled old apple trees so the crinkliness is turned up with whorled placement. However, not all, but a lot of the branches have a relatively large gap at the…
@Hanksa: Man, this is such a good one! ahaha, I like that you opened the eyes, he seems to be much more friendly like that! @Crystel: Wooot! Really nice sculpt, will you polypaint it? @Duncan: That my good Sir is what I call a moustache! :) I managed to finish two little animations this weekend and I also made a quick…
To improve my workflow? I'd like to see something similar to UnreadEds Asset Browser for my files. That way I can see all the assets I have in one location, and preview them without opening 3dsMax/photoshop/etc.... This would be especially cool if...say..you had a model of an evil robot, and you previewed it in the…
Reworking a texture on an older model i made. The wanderer. Short story about this one, is that in a distant future, there are leftover robots roaming the Earth without a purpose, after a long war. Humans are long gone so there's nobody to give them commands, and they are cursed to just follow their programming and look…
