So a high resolution picture of my ass would do?
[QUOTE=MaxOfS2D;38208957]if you have money you could try CGSkies[/QUOTE]
Well it's for some unity game thingie, you know, a "first game" kind of thing.
Not going to spend money on it :v:
I need to learn Zbrush character modeling, anyone have a personal experience with, and/or a favorite tutorial for character development?
[QUOTE=DOG-GY;38189644]you need to completely rethink your lighting to try and give the scene a sense of depth. currently it does not look 3d. if not in the context of the thread i would have figured it was done really quickly in photoshop to be honest.[/QUOTE]
Any suggestions on ways to go about doing that?
Spamming some more progress on the trainstation. Lots of textures updated, new textures, some new models.
The fences are a little derpy, I'm working on that.

Is that in a game engine, and what is it for?
Yea, it's the Unreal Engine 3 (UDK). It's an environment piece for my folio.

Seeing 'Life Drawing 1' in the module list kills me a little inside. I can't draw for shit.[/QUOTE]
I'm doing Computer Animation in university. I'm at The University of the West of Scotland, it's the 4th worst uni in the UK, but it does its creative courses well. Currently we're covering basic animation in flash and things, and we're moving on to Blender next week. A lot of it is really basic, but it's nice to have lab time and to work with people in the industry.

dun Dun DUNNNNNNNN Plot twist.
I need inspiration, I can feel my modeling skills wither away from my absense. Anyone know of any good ideas/concept art that would be a good refresher to modeling and texturing perhaps?
Hahaha Vray just completely shat itself:

[QUOTE=Mitsuma;38205950]Looks like a drone.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Eeshton;38205059]the fuck is it
almost looks like a car part but then again it kinda looks like a space ship[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=TonyP;38206169]The lack of small details, and size of the tubes make it look like it's pretty small, like dog sized.
To me, it looks like some sort of deep sea exploration robot.[/QUOTE]
it is a flying robot about the size of a small animal (like half a meter cubed maybe?) I wanted to add some more details on it but it was getting late
might give something like this another go though except more proper though? ? i liked the way the curvy bit looked
If I'm working on a map in Red Orchestra 2 would it be ok if I posted it here?

well what does the robot do? what are its major and minor functions? where does it store power? what kind of power does it use? how does it fly? how does it see? how does it steer?

defined shadows is the main thing that your scene is lacking.
[QUOTE=kaine123;38211779]If I'm working on a map in Red Orchestra 2 would it be ok if I posted it here?[/QUOTE]
Well since the mapping section are stuck up pricks 90% of the time, I personally don't mind, does it use custom assets? If no then I'd recommend against it.
[QUOTE=Theman!;38212301]Yeah, it's in a bump map slot set to 100 and that's how it displays in the render. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?[/QUOTE]
You need to put a 'Normal Map' shader in the bump map slot, and then your normal map into the Normal Map shader. The bump map wants black and white data, so you need that step in between.

This tutorial was a great help to me: [url]http://eat3d.com/zbrush4_character[/url]
It doesn't take you through the basics of ZBrush, you're required to know how to use the program, but it does go in-depth into pretty much all aspects of creating a complete character in ZBrush from an idea to retopo to rendering.

Oh wow. Whoops, I had it set to not cast shadows from the light.

I still think that it kind of looks like a hover bike, with missing handlebars. Kind of like what Ballistics had.

Definitely looks like a drone to me, but it needs more thrusters n shit.

I don't really know how to sharpen them other than widening the ends. I'll try that and see how it looks.
How are you doing them? What program?
Can anybody explain to me why the only time normal maps look proper in 3dsmax is when they've been generated by the program?
