Haven't really used mudbox before, but here's a concept for a map.
http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/2005/gdhsja.png
If DEE doesn't get lazy it will eventually be modeled and made into a map.
Inspired by http://www.conceptart.org/forums/sho...=118126&page=4
Its blurry...
It's a concept.
The scale that some of the elements infer are weird.
It's blurry.Quote:

Also, from that, it isn't really clear what is what.

Really, really bad idea.
Looks stupid. Extremly stupid.

[17:02] =Σ= Moses: that's how u store like 10 shots in a shotgun
[17:02] =Σ= Moses: when u put shells in a sohtgun they slide into a seperate chamber under the barrel which the pump is attached to
[17:03] =Σ= Moses: when u pump it pushes those shells towards the firing chamber and one is loaded
[17:03] [»ШМ«]Advancebo: k get to the point
[17:03] [»ШМ«]Advancebo: so remove it on there?
[17:03] =Σ= Moses: yea
[17:03] =Σ= Moses: so
[17:03] =Σ= Moses: no hollow opening on it
[17:03] [»ШМ«]Advancebo: k
[17:03] =Σ= Moses: understand how something works
[17:03] [»ШМ«]Advancebo: removes

Unwrapped shotgun.
Will rotate cylinders so seams are at the bottom. Final triangle count is 3874.
Also, the sides of the pump are at a pretty terrible angle, and the ribs on it are pretty bad as well. Same crit i gave hunter about his pump. Fix it, it's really bad :ohdear:Quote:

Do you think it needs rays off the clouds, if so, can someone point me in the direction on how to do so and or link to a tut.
The clouds don't look very convincing. They look a bit too grainy, and those higher/lower concentrations of cloud just don't look too great. If you want that kind of stuff, I'd suggest either subtler colors or transitions.Quote:

I am liking the colors and the tree, but the execution just isn't all there.
/crit
I've been experimenting with MudBox as I had some time this morning. This is about a 20-30 minute sculpt.
If you can guess what it is, I'll feel better about the time used; otherwise, its back to the drawing board:

Use stencils bro.Quote:

I think it was neuro that said, "Nobody's going to pay you for pressing a button."
I will fix the grip, just deciding on how it should look.Quote:

But you should be commenting on the animation, not stating your observations, which anyone can see that you are wrong (except for the obvious 'oh well thars an acog and suppresr lol.'
Yes, but I might not be able to accept because I have another non-paying job I'm working on. Lots of things to do.Quote:

Fix the hand. It looks like a pack of sausages.
Is this supposed to be a Golden State Warriors emblem?
No.
Steinbrenner High School.
e: Just looked at the golden state warriors logo. Whoever designed this one has no imagination.
aside from some anitomical issues the drawing is decent but the logo itself isn't that great. Though I assume you didn't design the logo so unless you have the option of altering the design of the entire logo then I'll hold my tongue.Quote:

If you can point out the anatomy issues for me that would be nice. It's pretty much my first time drawing a human.

Really big wip. Just looking for some suggestions on the shape. Was a bitch getting the face proportions to look right. Something still doesn't look right though.
Vagina chin.
His mouth doesn't look shaped correctly, and his eyes seem too squinty. Looks good though.
The nose is the only thing I see as going in the wrong direction. It looks pretty accurate at that LOD from what I can see.
I haven't sculpted in the nose yet.Quote:

Looks very nice disaster.
In the concept it looks like the sides of the chin bulge out and then the lips are thin and puffy. In yours it looks like the chin and lips have nave no visible difference.
WIP site for my school newspaper:
Someone else is doing all the coding, I'm designing everything.
Right now we've got the front page layout up and running, but nothing functional.
The font is too small. You've got a TON of real estate that you aren't using. Functionality should always go before form. My only other concern is the size of the pictures (how long will the site take to load?).

http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/i...ho216/wip2.jpg
Another shot. I think I've got the major details and proportions nailed. Just have to do the small things now. Then move down to the neck and so forth.
Another shot at the train station.
I've tried to make it less cardboard-y by taking out a massive chunk of the roof.
Also, I was thinking back to the Domain betas way back when and remembered how a single entrance to any structure is bad news when it comes to Oddball camping. As such, I added in a tiny hole near the base of the Train Station which leads into the station itself.
While it's not readily apparent in the render, there IS some rebar supporting that tiny hole, the render's just at a bad angle.
Personally, I don't like the hole, but I have to have at least 2 entrances to preserve gameplay, and I can't think of any way to make it look good.
So I'm looking for your guys' opinion on both if I had succeeded in making it any better and how I can make that hole look nicer.
It's hard to tell without it being properly textured, but it looks good to me.Quote:

Slowly working my way down.
your neck muscle anatomy is bad.
Agreed. You've got your musculature going more diagonally than vertically, as seen in the reference, along with how it works in reality.
yeah I see what you mean. I guess I was just sculpting along the flow of the topology. I'll see what I can do. Shouldn't be to hard to fix.
Looks good, but It looks nothing like the reference.Quote:

It looks like you just used the reference for inspiration and went off and did your own thing. Which there's nothing wrong with that, still a very good model. I'm just saying if you were trying to make a copy then you've missed the mark.Quote:

most obvious errors are in that image.
it sucks pretty hard because i don't have a tablet here, but i guess it shuold point out the most obvious lines in a fair enough manner.
you should proceed by defining the shapes of the head more, like the jaw-line for example, and the muscle thign going from the corner of the mouth to the nose.
just define the shapes in general more, then when you've got the most of it in there, you can start to actually sculpt smaller things into it.
the cavity in the side of his head.
just add muscle to where it should be, and smooth it out a bit, dig in the cavities in his cheek-area, then start to paint in some of it's tendons there
general rule of thumb in zbrush, is to just go from big to small.
i just noticed that your sculpt's forehead looks like flat ass-cheeks.
Looks like two elbows pressed together.
After having taken in some crit some snaf and some advice from Deephunter i've remade my monitor shell.
The mesh is alot more clean now not as crimpled as it was i've not long started adding detail as i plan on makiing the mesh fairly high res or atleast higher res than halo 1.
I've got a side by side comparison of my old monitor mesh next to the new one.
I wont say which is the new one and which is old as i want to see who thinks which is newer, if my older mesh looks better than my new one then i know im doing something terribly wrong.
http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/720/newmonitorrender.png
The one to the right of the render is newer/better.
Made some progress on Gridlock's "West Gate". Any comments?
And, while we're at it, anyone know how to make Max listen to Alpha channels in .tif files and block out what isn't needed? The graffiti placed in that pic has an ugly black box around it, and while I know it won't be ingame, it annoys the fuck out of me.
English mobster if you think the one on the right is better then i've stuffed up pretty badly.
The one with less detail to the left is the newer one.
I've decided to try and model the halo 2 monitor instead of halo 3.
Also while im here.
Anyone able to tell me for what ever reason the UV wrapping tools are all greyed out?
Im trying to unwrap my monitor and everything is greyed out for some odd reason.
If you open the material editor and go to the "Opacity" box, you should be able to put a bitmap there and it will automatically use that texture's alpha.
Finished my monitor model.
I've redone the "eye" peice a little so it looks like a lense than just some beveled cylinder.
Im not sure wherther i should indent the actual glowing light peice on the side or not.
in halo 3, the eye bulges out, instead of in.
in soviet russia, eye bulges you.
The eye is bulging out.Quote:

Put the marathon symbol on the eye. That's how it is in Halo 3.

Need a wireframe and non-clay render with one omni and specularity of the material raised so i can see the surfaces better. Looks like you're doing a pretty good job so far, though.
Ok got some renders for you then.http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/9148/wireframe2k.jpghttp://img196.imageshack.us/img196/3472/wireframe1b.jpghttp://img216.imageshack.us/img216/4...1sep091606.gifQuote:

Dunno if I'll actually finish any of these or not. Let it process, might be a bit before it's up
May still be processing. Still WIP, looking for crits
a bit stiff/snappy/unnatural at the ammo belt insertion and the feed cover closing, but overall a very cool stylized animation.
