It has something to do with my user name. I just signed in with an old lurker id and had the option to upload. Now the $1,000,000 question is why can't I upload under my Eric2575 ID anymore?

Ok, weirdness abounds. John, when I clicked on your posted link, I get a message saying I don't have permission for this operation??? I am logged in as Eric2575 but no go. Will, I only have the option to log out - since I am already logged in- but still don't have the option to upload. Could this have anything to do with my ZoneAlarm firewall?

Bumpidy bump.

Oh man, that's pretty solid work, but the she-man boobs a gotta go Post a wireframe. -E

That is looking good, and I don't want to hear anything about not finishing on time. You've got over three weeks left and plenty of time to flesh that dude out. Turn in what you have at the deadline, no matter what. Let's make this about what you can accomplish, not whether it's totally finished or not. Have fun with it.

When I go to the stills galleries, I don't have the option to upload anymore? Is it just me?

Hey Ken, usually I'm the one that ask those kinds of questions I think what Ken means is that every aspect of modeling, animating, etc, is a lot of work and although this forum is one of the most open and helpful forums you'll find, fishing for freebies is kinda frowned upon. When we see someone who puts in time and effort, then we are more responsive. You might try to model your own or pay someone to do it for you. Who knows, you might even find someone to do it for free if they get credit for their work in your movie. BTW, what kind of experience do you have in making an animated movie? Just curious. -E

What kind of experience do you have? Your work is not that of a noob.

It's become a habit of mine to check for Normals direction as I model. I do it almost as often as I hit save

Nice modeling. Love to see it when it's a movie.

Al, stop unpacking and attach the zip file already

Let me be the first one to say it: If you don't find a side view of her face, your efforts will be futile. Even with a side view it is very difficult to model a face and have it look like the actual person you are modeling. Take this with a grain of salt and please, prove me wrong, but I am usually a bit more in your face all with good intentions. Oh, and by the way, this is just my personal experience -E

Yes, we are your technical support. Just make a donation of $5,000,000 to the United Bank of Nigeria in the name of His Majesty the Royal...wait, that's another email I have to finish...ahem, never mind...Tech support, yeah, tech support...

Nice comparison.

Is the hair around the ears modeled? It's hard to tell from the wireframe.

Keep it up Case, practice makes perfect

Wow, that's nice. How about a wireframe? The bridge of the nose may need some tweaking?

Al, I wondered when you'd peek in. Bein' from the ole country, you ought to know a bit about seefare and pirates, eh? Just kidding Judging from your post, you've been hangin out with Vern for too long...hmmm, me thinks Vern is rubbin off on us all in a good way Now that Caroline has given you the super duper secret of applying decals, you have no reason not to finish your Walker in a spectacular way and animate that puppy. Here's to happy splining, CHEERS! Btw, you gonna enter your monster in this month's contest? Hmmm....??? Eric

Argh! I'll make you walk the plank for that one I'm almost done modeling the ship, now it's on to the ocean waves, then textures. I'm glad y'all like the ship. Eric

I'm glad you brought back the face to the chubbier version. The version above doesn't look as Mayberryish as your avatar. I have not followed the Bertram story, is this a personal project or ...?

My car got broken into several years ago and the thief got my laptop and my AM cd among other things. The insurance company asked for nothing else other than some kind of proof that I had a laptop and AM software. I provided the proof and received the current value of everything that was stolen. Your company should have no problem putting such a small claim in for you and getting you a dollar value equal to what you would pay now to have the cd subscription.

Thank you Bill. I don't have that one and will look it over carefully. And yes, the rat lines are another boo boo. After modeling them, I had to change the angle going to the mast head and haven't gotten to the spider lines yet.

Yup, that's one

The detail is amazing. I am really looking forward to seeing this animated. Keep up the good work Eric

Instead of modeling, I rendered the ship from several angles. It's still a work in progress, so if you look hard, you'll see some boo boo's. Enjoy... Eric
