yes soapose to be gemlike

ok ill keep tweaking it the floor was made of a material though i should try a decal

yeah kept having problems with the renders and that was the best one that came out so not much else i can do

ive been working on wallpapers for my friends company as part of a promotion and too improve my skills a little over time this one is the newest 24:20:37 render time radioisty with AO and 36 multipasses tell me what you think

oh cool i missed that one thanks john

hey i was just wondering if anyone knows of anymore head or face tutorials around, because most of my favorite ones disapeared or no longer exist if not its ok ill just figure it out on my own

Kalary Royfink just poped into my head when i saw him

Ive been working on this car for about 3 years on and off its a 2003 Audi TT quadtro when i first started it i couldnt get it look right at all everything was out of proportion and the materials i was using made it look like crap well after seeing Xtaz and his BMW i decided to give it another go i almost basicly started from scratch so far just got the front basicly done with a few areas missing got to give a big thx to Xtaz again for the the material hints still has a long way to go but i wanted to get some comments on how it looks so far and what could be changed if needed jobe

i am trying to get the effect of a super ball that has a very bouncy serface and i used the hair to see the way it bounces it acutally made it easier for me to follow the motions what i was going for was to get to bounce and loose it bounce after a peroid of time but since the hairs take a while to render i had to shorten it i will rerender to show thw whole animation yes the file size is samll becuase basicly theres nothing in the screen except for the ball

i went back to basics with animating after quite a few failed attempts so i just started with a bouncing ball tell me what you guys think ball_bounce_test.mov

man what has this project turned into lol awsome work sofar guys you should keep going i still remeber going into at old Toys R Us back in 88 for my nintendo system that came packed with super mario/duckhunt man those were the days... but you guys got some great results so far keep going i want to see mario come to life again!

hey nuns just let me tell you your doing a great job and your going on the same path i did about 5 years ago i was always starting projects and never finishing them (i got about 35 im working if i still contribute to them still lol) what you should do is start one project and stick to it you say you have trouble modeling chracters well so do (and still do to some extendnt) start small like that leg you were doing try building off of that my first chracter was a ball with 2 eyes and sticks for legs but he was still a chracter so what im saying is start small and build on it hope this helps later jobe

yeah still working on it havent had much time to work on it lately but it will get there

no theres enough lighting i just have it turned way down beucase it got alittle too bright for these models plus the materials i used arent really shiny got to find new materials

just a small update of what im working on im making the military flashlight almost complete just need to finish texture and add the switches tell me what you think of the shape the gun is going to be G36 still in the early stages so lots need to be done trying to get more complex as i keep on going my goal towards the end of this is to have a full equiped military guy (the guy will be model last since i still not very good with my chracter making skills) tell me what you think so far

ok im rerendering with the size fix now should have the fixed one up tonight last night i finished the goggles kind of had a hard time with swat style goggles to i made my own design tell me what you think

ahh ok thansk for the tip that what the size check was for

thanks! i was able to finish it today put the chin strap on and with the quick clips put it on top of the galo model i found on the extra cd to see how well it fits tell me what you think next im working on goggle to go with the helmet then im working on flashlight

i wanted to try a new kind of things to make so i thought it would be cool to try us military gear first i tried with the helmet still a lot needs to be done with it i need to finish the chin strap with the clip. the strap holder need to be fixed and a bunch of other things. tell me what you guys think so far

well its probly becuase im left handed and its mika from the extra CD

this is how it would of looked if it was on your arm

you got to remeber this idea came out in 85ish or so and this was just suppose to be a cell phone lol (i wish i had one too, time to build one!!) thanks, i wish i could make people but thats one skill im still trying to figure out thats easy have you ever heard of power tape. if not its suppose to be paper thin batteries that suppose to last 10 hours. not sure if it came out yet though

I just though it would be good to keep my skills in hone every now and then so i did this model tooke me quite a while to finish but i think it finally done. i orginally saw this in an old 1985 tech magazine it was suppose to be the future of cell phones or something i was going off of basicly memory since i lost the magazine. its amazine how the idea of technology changes, just thought that was intersting.

i have seen a ride just like this on tv its down in florida they call it the spellbound or something along that line excpet the one i saw was only a one seater and your friend on the ground can cantrol the ride your on its pretty insane

i see i never acutally did any animation before just been using the program to make models and such and now moving on to other parts its a very slow process for me
