Going for a touch of realism eh? lol HOLY COW! That is looking REALLY great. I like the stand and the backdrop too. Very, very cool. Good work! Keep it up!
-
it's specular settings are Size: 13%, Intensity: 830%
then again, maybe the specularity's good enough. lol. Hmm, well I don't know then, the blade just doesn't look like a piece of metal. I had guessed it was specularity but that's for sure not it if you've got that at 830%!! lol. But ya, the blade doesnt quite give the appearance as a piece of metal to me. Do you know what I mean? But ya, still, its totally looking awesome. Great work
-
Wow Dan, your stuff is really good. I like it. The handle is great, but I think the blade should shine a bit, right now its got like 0 specularity. But other than that It is really lookin cool! keep it up!
-
That's lookin pretty good so far! There's a few spots on the hood and the roof of the car though that seem to be needing some smoothing out. But I like what I'm seeing! I look forward to seeing your progress.

but it realy makes a difference in the look of a render
but it realy makes a difference in the look of a renderYa it does. But still, That model came out realy good. I like the engraving part on it too. Thats a nice touch. Are you gonna do anything with this model at all? Make a character for it, or a sheath? Just curious. Great job once again.
-
Holy cow Dan. That katana is really impressive, heck, just the renders of the room its in are impressive. Like, wow. I like it. Very good job to you sir. How are you rendering it? You using radiosity? However you're rendering it, its really good. Great job.
-
Oooo, I like the exhaust pipes. high five! But, ya. I like it, I think its cool. The decals look good on it too. And um.. ya. Welcome to the forums. HI!!

Huzzah!
gre03, thanks! I went to the global properties and the real-time Driver somehow got changed to OpenGL, and when i changed it, everything came back to normal. Wohoo! now i can go back to work on my project. Hmm, I'm still curious as to what I pressed. Can you toggle real-time drivers? whatever. Thanks everyone for trying to help! I'll get back to the jag asap. -
Thanks for the responses guys, but its not just with that model. Its with every screen. Like I can't see anything, its just the basic color in the background. Thats it, no grid, no wireframe, no nothing, but the model's still there cause i can render it. its with any model i open. even in a choreography w/o a model. nothing shows up until i render. you can't see the ground or the lights or the cameras. Just the basic blue color of the background.
I've messed with the customize preferences and it has no effect. affect? whatever. so ya. anyone know whats goin on.
-
umm. ya guys, any ideas?
-
Ya, I agree with you guys 100%. I saw the thing on the door and was thinking of fixing it. Which I will. along with the headlights. But...
I was gonna start workin on my car AGAIN (man, I just keep putting it off! Ugh!) and so i do. So i start workin on it. And I go to save the project file its in, so i press ctrl+s to save, but as I do this my chair like buckles and I press something else, causing everything to dissapear. So I'm like OMG WHAT DID I DO!?!? so i press undo a million times but nothing comes back, i close the program then reopen it. The model's not gone, but it turns out the only way i can see it is if i render it. otherwise the work view (like looking at it in the regular modeling window) doesn't show up. Soo... does ANYONE have ANY idea of what's going on? Its not just for this model too, its for every screen. choreography screen, action screen, etc. nothing. just a screen of blue. Its a nice blue I'll admit. But still. Any ideas of what's goin on? Martin? anyodys?

Can we see a wireframe? I'm thinking it has to do with alphas and gammas if its a higher patch count, does it do this without the texture as well?
-
If I may ask... are your modeling from blueprint rotoscopes? Drawings? Or something else?
Hey rodney, I found these three shots of it that I've been using as rotoscopes. However, since the the front shot and the back shot were taken in perspective, I've used them more as refrences than real rotoscopes.

Very good modeling job. I'm impressed.Thanks Yves! Thats a lot coming from someone with your talents.
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!
Haha, thanks. Seriously though, PATIENCE IS KEY. Oh my goodness you have no idea how many times I've stopped working on this for a few hours out of frustration. But ya, patience really helps when you're tweaking cps over and over, this way and that. ugh.
lolThanks for the comments guys! I've pretty much finished everything with exception to the inside and bottom of the car. Although I might redo the headlights cause I'm not sure if I like the way they came out.
And here are the pics of my model, and a close up of the headlights on the right
-
Hey thats a cool effect. It looks like he's underwater. Very cool
-
Wooo! I'm all for procrastination! lol
Thats turning out quite nicely. The attention to detail is amazing. Does that have a high patch count? You're still goin to texture it? Wow. Thats quite a project. Has your teacher seen it yet? I'll bet you they'll be blown away by it. Awesome work! keep it up!
-
Wow. That is turning out incredibly well. Superb work. Modeling and texturing both. My goodness. Great job.
-
that's just awesome! How did you do that withought creases?!
Thanks, well, I'm modeling each piece of the car individually. So that makes it easier to keep things smooth. Also I'm doing a lot (A LOT) of tweaking of CPs. So ya.
I've begun the headlights and the front window but I was kinda in the mood for takin a break so I wanted to see what it would look like with some color and material on it, so I made a quick material and put it on the body of the car and rendered it in a choreography just for fun. So here's the next render new and in color!
Cooment and Critique away

That is looking really cool! When it's done can I drive it?
Haha, ya sure no prob. Just bring it back in one piece k? lol
Cool, so ya, I havent updated in a looong time. My bad, but! I do have more progress. So here's what I've done since my last post! Hope you all enjoy it, comments and crits welcome.
-
Wow. Hey Kamikaze, I really like the way this is turning out. Great model. Nice paint job too. its turning out great. Keep up the good work!
-
Ok so I've made some more progress. Wahoo! It took a while but I got the back to look relatively decent I think. Comments and Crits are always welcome. Let me know how I'm doing, what else could be done to it, etc etc. Thanks!

Thanks Michael. Haha, ya I know what you mean about the waves thing. I've been readjusting so many CPs, o man. lol. But ya, thanks for the comments guys. Here's another update. This ones not that big of an update, just the little side thing and the door handle, and I redid the hood a bit. I've been busy with school and all so i havent had all the free time I'd have wanted. But ya. If you want to see a different angel to look at it let me know. More comments and crits welcome.

Nice. I like him. He's got a comical look, kinda like homer simpson. But ya. Cool.

Oh, hey, that's convenient. I've got a samurai model I was working on a while ago. Its just the armor though, never got around to the face and feet and hands, buuut... Its pretty good. (well, I like it at least lol) If you want it for like some random guy in the background or somethin you can have it. Let me know if you're interested. Cool. later-
