if the big pooh ba says it's great, then who are we to argue ... nice work. funny how fast you learn when you are under pressure

i like the character... the thigns are a bit too fat... but the fingers are nice... my only problem is the empty space where there's supposed to be a joint

my only comment is that it's too saturated... it doesn't look natural but more like 80's 3D. So desaturate it in photoshop, and the suggestion to blur it a bit is not a bad idea... good luck.

wow!!! amazing render... i hope you uploaded it by now!

Nice Work... funny idea

excellent work... teach me!

Wow man, This is excellent work! the rendering and the animation is quite impressive... show me more!

very nice work, i just watched it, and reminded me a lot of Aardman's stop motion style of animation (wallace and gromit) had a hard time to phase out of it and remember that it's 3D... i mean that as a good thing of course

I just checked it out, and i have to say it's pretty darn good!! beautiful work, and to have it sitting on your desk beside you!!!!! WOW!

well, i think the font is a bit too cartoony, go for flat type. the poses are cool, but you should add some more contrast and maybe a darken the sides of the image to make the viewers attention center on the middle action. i would also advise you to minimize the text on the poster... and zoom in on the main action (vampire attacking) of course, you could consider all of the above to be useless blabber by an insane person...

i think it looks really cool, but like the others comments, the edges are too visible. what are you using to key the green out?

i'm trying to say something witty but nothing is coming out of my mouth... i had no idea that AM could give you such results!!!! i guess digging deep into the software does reap it's benefits!!! beautiful image man. beautiful! i'm now sure that my 300$ are worth a lot more than i bargained for!!!

Hey Dhar! I just revisited this thread... I'm happy to hear that i have a fellow enthusiast originally from this region. I'll stay on the lookout for your posts. Mish.

very cool work. I think what you're doing is pretty well balanced modelling wise. i'm surprised to see how far you've come from the original sketch (literally ) Keep it up and i can't wait to see the final thing.

oof! i can barely get past modeling something small. I always thought that these things would be impossible in AM. But the more i browse the forum and try the software, the more i learn that "modelling takes talent" and a lot of PATIENCE!!!!!! good work. no wait, excellent work!

thanks rodney. I'll start posting right away.

concerning the arabic part, it means "honor" "sacrifice" "loyalty". but you have to read it from right to left! Should i post my work that's not related to the tutorials on another forum section? and when i do finish some lessons from the tutorials, should i post them on this one? one more question... why does it say newbie under my picture? and how do i change that?

Hello there everyone, My name is Michel Dani, my friends call me Mish. I've had AM for around 2 years now, but i haven't done anything really serious with it. I've been using 3DS max at work, so i'm not that new to the 3D world. I bought AM because of all the reviews i've read about it, and i think it's great except for one problem, the crashing!!!!!!! This is the only piece of final arwork i've done so far: [attachmentid=9695] It's the logo of the lebanese army. (i'm not in the army by the way ) I'm working on some other stuff but this forum is new to me and i would like to share my WIPs. I'm going to go through the tutorials from the beginning, because i find that i'm not that familiar with the software yet. Michel Dani. Art Director. Grey Worldwide MENA
