Hi Tom: this car, being your first model, is very good, but I have some considerations ..take them in a positive way, as constructive critics, I learned plenty modeling the cars for my short Peace Xtaz

Same here :

hi Ken ... centaur model have 3259 patches ... i copied just the hand and paste it into a new model ... 601 patches ... now i copied just the head and paste it into a new model .... 1247 patches ... then the body = 3259-(2*601)-1247 = 1411 of course Peace Xtaz

John !!!!! Amazing Kreative Kastle in Klouds for Kapsules do you plan to put lights inside the cells ? Peace Xtaz

hi ganthofer : each hand = 601 head = 1247 body = 1411 TOTAL PATCHES = 3259 Peace Xtaz

hi John, I cannot imagine a weak centaur, one of my concerns was leave him with a strong appearance.... then i got it Lance , you are saying this because you never saw a centaur drinking beer, in fact, nor me... but I imagine this gentleman with 2,50 meters length with a glass in his hand Matrickz, hi friend ... i used Skycast (by John Henderson) lights are sun type - width=5000 cm - faloff=10000 the Anzovin´s guys asked for something original... then I model it ... Hi doug ... thx for your comment, I hope the Anzovins thinks likewise ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thx to all Peace Xtaz

Thanks Ken .. Matrickz ( nice new avatar !! ) I update Centaur by Xtaz Page , now you can see wires and a poor decaled version ... Peace Xtaz

Hi Hashers : I cheered up with this contest, and I decided to put the hand in the mouse and model my centaur version After some sketches, here is the result : Centaur by Xtaz Peace Xtaz

Willian, I am happy for you not to be competing in the CENTAUR ( my entry ) !!!!!!! GREAT CLEAN MODEL !!!!! Peace Xtaz

wiliian : great tentacles .... a lot of 5 point patches how many patches until now ?? Xtaz

Antony : I am impressed..... The quality, the details, the lights. simply.... excellent I love those splines.... simple lines becoming dreams ... Xtaz

ganthofer an mark .... thanks for your comments ... .. they give me power to continue in this arduous task, which I intended Mark i didnt have succes whit toon render ... but I will continue trying now .. im trying some FX , I would like to thank a lot to Willian Sutton for sprites help ... i had to use a poor ilumination to render this test ( only 3 passes ), the full light (25 passes ) was being rendered in 7 min/frame .. it would take 110 hours to render all and any comment will be contemplated....

hashers : I believe to have finished the process of drawing scenery.... he was gigantic with more than 350 objects...I needed do it giant, because I will need a long scene among the city...

YOU ROCK !!!!!!!!! no words ...... i tried to find a icon to describe .. but i didnt get... Xtaz

Jim .. it will be !!! ) the exaggerating atmosphere is deliberate, or else, I would have to unbend a little the buildings !! I intend the scene to be similar to a dream, or a memory, something like that. I will use a bloom filter in the scene ...... maybe thx JIM ... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GANTHOFER !!!!!
