Here is a small picture of my UFO, although plane, it is just my beginning work. As you can tell by my name I am a newbie. I will put my alien model in here when I get to my own computer. The other model is of course Ed. If you would like to see my first short animation; [attachmentid=10034] This is my first short, it makes no sence, but it is a start.

This is my first attempt at a humanoid model. It's intended for a training video. My rationale for creating a crystalline skater was to make the lines and outline as clearly visible as possible (I also thought it would be easier. I don't think it was. I'll have to model a realistic character to know for sure.) He'll eventually have hands, eye balls, and ears (I hope.) I'm posting him as is because I have several specific concerns, but I would appreciate any and all comments and suggestions. 1) I wanted him to be interesting and well defined, but not too distracting or grotesque. What's your initial impression; is he just too weird? 2) I've inclu…

My film begins in an attic full of childhood memories. This still shows that it's twilight, and the character has just turned the light on, but she's off-screen still. I may put something outside the window, so far it's just a night-sky-fading sunset gradient. There are also some models here that I could post to the forum, most of them "work" (the rocking horse, scooter, the russian doll opens and the tin toy bear marches around and bangs a drum. The books also all have working pages) The dresser doesn't open though. Ignore the fact that the streamers on the scooter go straight out. I haven't simulated yet. This is just the "set dressing view so far." Seana

For a re-make of a character picture portfolio I made years ago, which is being redone in full 3D, I am required to re-create the car that she owns. However according to her story she owns a Slimbikini Miablo VS, which would be a complete take-off of a Lambourgini Diablo. However, I decided to create a car design that would be unique, while still borrowing some of the design ideas of the Diablo. And because of my usual "Must document everything" nature, I still have every single render I created for this vehicle, and I thought it would be something to share. First of all, the original image from the Portfolio: http://members.shaw.ca/nekosei/others/Picture3…

Here's a simple volumetric shined on a fan. If you want to see the movie, just download it and set the .mov to loop. It was easier and faster to do it that way, and it shows the effect really well. Tell me what you think of it. Fan.zip

Here is my latest character. Yes, I know...it's just his head. His name is Captain "Lucky" Starz . He is a spaceship pilot. Or soon will be! I haven't decided on a design for the rest of him yet. If anyone has any suggestions, please speak up. What I DO know so far... 1) humanoid body 2) some kinda space getup 3) imagination, imagination, imagination I am still working on some sketches (but I'm really NOT a very good sketch artist) and I will post those as I go.

The description pretty much says what I used. It's far from finished, as the blue truck needs to be heavily damaged and I need to interview the driver (blue truck) to sind out which way his vehicle spun. Image as a roto for camera. Yves' light rig, Explode and Newton plugin from yoda64. Had smoke in it but it didn't work out (NR problems).

http://www.barkerfamily.plus.com/flash/handshake/index.htm i have finished the opening part of the movie but there is still loads to do. Once the sun it at its highest then its just shaggy running so no more to see at the moment. please note that there is no preloader required, so no waiting time at all as i have used a progressive download for the music and some of the video. you will need a flash 8 player in order to watch it.

Hi, Here is a piece i'm working for a Visual Communication & Design project at school . It's meant to be either on a cliff face or over water so that the main view is of the ocean or something. The tables haven't been added in yet, and the Thom is just for checking scale (he's exactly the same size as me). Just posting it to see what people think of the design aspect. comments appreciated.

Hi Fellow A:M users, I have another model I'm working on, which is based on a real life guy. A few months ago, I found out about this Kiss-Like Japanese Metal/Rock band called Seikima-II (Disbanded 1999). I really liked the band and descided to do a 3D model on lead singer Demon Kogure. here are some images. I have to work on the hair later. His hair is suppose to be spikey. I was thinking of using hair particles, but found it too difficult to control. I'm going to try to texture the hair instead. The armor still needs work.

does anyone know of a good tutorial on using surface constraints. There is an expanation of how surface constraint are supposed to work in the AM help. I have looked at the explantion many times to see if I am missing anything and I still cant bring myself to experiment with the function. It is not clear in the example if the object I am constraining to a surface has any constrants on it too. Surface normals are mentioned but that is as far as it goes. It would be nice to make a chory action with a car driving over bump ground,

Hi Guys, I would like to share something that I have currently in the works. The head is complete, but I am still working on the body. The Greaseman is based on a real Disc- Jocky from DCRadio700. http://www.greaseman.org I've been listening to him for years and he's really funny. I hope to create some animated shorts based on his radio sketches. [attachmentid=9731][attachmentid=9732] -Edit--- This is the Front and Side Profiles that I drew.

Hey guys, I've received a commission from a buddy of mine to create a couple classic buildings from Salt Lake. Namely Temple Square. I've got the temple itself built (no textures yet) and just wanted to ask what would be the best way to achieve a granite effect. I don't want to re-decal every inch of this thing and was wondering if I can somehow material-map this thing with a single equally scaled image facing the same direction Then repeat it with a bump map of the same size, etc. Any suggestions?

I'm making this DNA molecule project available in response to this thread. It's a little tricky to work with: the four nucleotides are different models, with each atom modeled as an eight-patch sphere. There's a separate model for the skeleton of a seven-base pair double helix composed of non-rendering splines, with an action that adds the nucleotides to it as action objects. The choreography contains three instances of the helix stacked on top of each other, with the bottom two instances having "translate to" and "orient like" constraints to the top instance. Basically, this molecule has a strand that repeats the sequence GATTACA three times, together with its comple…
