I don't think he's trying to be degrading, he's trying to get a point across, except for that bit about the school. Honestly dude the school isn't going to teach you everything, a lot of it falls on you. What can really help is posting your work around to get feedback. Try a few exercises outside of class and post them here or at a place like polycount.
Also what school do you go to?
Penguin is right. I am going to the Art Institute of Dallas. The animation/modeling teachers know what they are doing, which is why I've been able to make it this far. My problem with their program is the order of the modeling classes, not their actual teaching.
I really should have said this earlier, but before I dig the hole any deeper I want to make one thing perfectly clear: I struggle to word things correctly. The teacher is nowhere near as bad as I'm probably saying he is, he's one of those guys that's been modeling since before the existence of 3dsmax and encourages going out and communicating instead of holding your hand through the entire course. The majority of my problems could probably be solved if I could word my questions to him correctly, I'm sure of it.
But whenever I ask him for help I'm just staring at my model trying to figure out what to say or ask that's not going to make me look like an idiot. Then I ask something really basic that I already know.
Whenever I DO manage to word my questions correctly I get the help I need, which is why that pump turned out as well as it did.
I am going to rework the organization of the vertices before I make another progress shot, and also make some glossy renders and look at what's really happening. I might also make a Polycount account and post my work there, but I doubt it'll get any feedback.
if you post here
i WILL give you proper feedback if you'd like.
i told uhhhh... nero (i think) the same
^ The reason why it's important to post your work. Nothing against your teachers or your school but I've notice in some cases that professors can be too soft when critiquing your work and don't always tell you what you need to hear.
No harm in trying. Also the polycount wiki has tons of information regarding modeling, baking, texturing. So it's worth lookingI might also make a Polycount account and post my work there, but I doubt it'll get any feedback.
I am going to the AI of fort worth or UNT.Penguin is right. I am going to the Art Institute of Dallas.
