wow, thanks john! it means a lot to me coming from someone like yourself, also thanks to everyone for their extra helpful comments. i have tried porcelain and it gives me weird artifacts with my 5-pointers and the topmost 4-pointer of the bottom lip. with porcelain it looks gret from the side but is looks like a whole bunch of unattached splines from the front as if it were made from polys (ugh!)
i think i might redo the entire cheek though. hmm, i´l ponder it over the holiday.
-
thanx guys, jane's totally cool with it though (i've already showed her an earlier, worse looking version)
-
how do you mean? do you mean jane or the model from A:M?
-
Hi everyone, this is a model of my friend Jane that I’ve been working on for about a month. (on and off, most of the time smoothing) Any comments? I’m having trouble with the cheeks and some 5-point patches around the eyes. Any feedback that anyone has would be greatly appreciated.
Oh, and happy holidays to all! :-)
-
you´re right david, there are some cheek issues, which i´ve tried to fix but have failed to do so as of yet, i wasn´t actually planning on posting it today so i´ll go back and post the side, wire, etc views soon. thanks for the feedback!

hey i´m modeling my friend jane, my 1st realistic character ever! check it out and let me know what u guys think. oh and thanx for the feedback.
ps. the hair is real, not made in AM (yet!) ;-)
-
does anyone know how to make realistic long hair? i´m taking on my 1st realistic human character, my friend jane. she has really long hair and the method i´m using in v11t seems too tedious to be the best method. i´m styling hair cp by cp in grooming mode, help!!!!!!

Ive tried Lightwave 3D 7 and Cinema4D XL 7(both of which are pro level 3D apps)
and althoguh LW really confused me, C4D seemed very user friendly (but its $1700 USD). Then i tried Blender3D, OpenFX 1.1, Anim8or and a host of other pieces of 3D soft. I got some models made and my skill progressed. Then i tired AM 2004. WOW i was totally amazed! AM easily beats the pants off of both (for my purposes) and it´ll run smooth as butter even on my 800MHZ celeron CPU! i´ve been usng it since late last summer and i´m already tackling my 1st photorealistic human.
check out my half finished site to see some of what i can do (ad keep in mind that others are way better modelers than me.)

I haven´t started texturing any models but the monster with tht horns is the 1st i´ll tackle. the skeleton is actually a recurring character in my drawings + 2d/3d art although don´t quite know just what it is. Anyway, any feedback would be great! email me at panchosimpson@yahoo.com!

i tried re-CFA ing my model and nothing, i tried using mirror mode on a
model from the hash library(tarzan) and nothing oh and paste mirrored
doesnt work either! i think all miror fuctions have disappeared!
I'll post my mdl by saturday though.

-
oh, thanx Ken, i'll post i sometime but since i dont have internet at my house it'll take awhile but i'll do it from school. i did try the simple model trick but again it didnt work
on a side note, how does your Radeon X800 perform in A:M? i wus just wondering b/c i was going to buy a new system w/ a geforce 6600 gt (but i still need money the for it)
sorry that i didnt see the smiley face and thanx

no, my problem persists and for one i did contact the hash staff about
this around a month ago. the reason why i'm fast replying is b/c the link
to reply isn't working on our crappy school pcs. anyway, YES the button
was on, and while not a super genius, i did not mess with the tolerance
settings. this is mostly b/c i didn't know they existed before the problem
started! also b/c of this i reinstalled A:M and again it didn't work, this is
really starting to bug me but A:M is a great program o I'll put up with it
for the time being.

i bought a:m like 2 months ago and after the 1st month mirror mode died on me even on freshly copy/flip/attached models! i've checked the pivot and i've contacted the hash support staff but to no avail won't somebody please help a struggling 15 year old animator in distress?!?!
ps: i'm using v10.5r on the 2k4 cd on a celeron 800mhz pc w/ 320MB SDRAM, a SIS integrated 630E gpu w/64MB and winxp pro
thanx in advance

wassup fellow hashers!! i found out about this cool little download that i thouht some of the more economically challenged of us might find interesting. a free compositing app, so if you cant buy after effects or combustion or INFERNO! (ha!) then look into jahshaka its out for irix, windows 98se to xp, linux(duh!) and mac os x. the download size varies (windows is under 6 megs) but its usually under 10 megs.be warned though its in alpha stages so stability might be a little iffy but check out the features
an editing module
a painting moule
a 3d animation module (take that ae!)
a desktop module
a text module
and (drumroll......) a 2d AND 3D PARTICLE SYSTEM!
plus DOF and fog
and everything is openGL accelerated (REALTIME or
pseudo realtime but its fast!!!!!!
the interface looks a LOT like discreet combustion or inferno or that matter and seems to be very simple.
but it refuses to run on 2 win98 machines i tried it on, i dont have internet so i havent tried it on my winxp rig
ill tell you guys if it works on xp!
heres the link
http://www.jahshaka.com/downloads/downloads.html
from there just pick your poison
and hash out!
