Whats with the nose, there's two different shades :\ Did you for some reason UV that separately?

Yeah, I noticed that too. It's the lighting. I have three lights in the scene and that area is getting exposed to all of the lights, I think. It's that or the smoothing groups.

EDIT: I had all of the lights casting shadows. I fixed it though.

No, Mayas texturing, uv mapping, rendering and material access/editing is EXTREMELY faster than Max's.

only because you dont know what you're doing in MAX

Maya also comes with all the paint tools and stuff as well. It's almost like a mini zbrush and BodyPaint 3D within Maya.

so does max, you just haven't found it yet.

Max is only as far as I can tell, good for modeling things like complex guns and architecture. Thats why almost all of you max users only ever make those exact things. Guns and architecture.

i agree that maya does have certain advantages over organics, but thats not why the max users here are all gun whores.
they're just gun whores who use max.

high res modelling, is actually ALOOOT like organic modelling, wich max is more than capable of.



DEBATE OVER, BAck TO TO GALLERY-ING!

I'm not sure if Blender has a polygon counter. If it does I don't know how to get to it.

It's probably nurbs, so you won't get polygon counts.

[Rob Oplawar]

no more arguing about max and maya.

I need to start working from concept sketches :v

[LlamaMaster]

If you can't do any better than that without a concept, thats pretty sad. Bad model; be more creative or something.

[Tweek]

who needs concept.

just doodle in 3d, that's how all my awesome stuff comes to be.
