object suggestions?

[pixelplucker]

Anyone have anything they want modeled let me know. Still refining my splining skills and the practice is always nice.

 

My time will be limited soon because I have some beta work coming up and that should consume much of my free time.

an lcd tv from sony.

The Extras disc already has a couple TV's on them. I converted one to flat screen the other day. You should do something challenging.

 

Maybe like a really detailed laptop computer with great plastic looking material. I could use something like that.

 

Or you could do an AMP to go with the guitar models.

I'll toss a laptop together, textures should be easy enough. Want it with the annoying eraser mouse like the ibm's have?

Toss some roto's up so I can work from them. Seems to take me longer to do research than to do the models hehe

I'm not a musician so I really wouldn't even know where to start. But a simple Google image search is here:

Maybe something that dates back to that period?

 

Been sidetracked in rigging my fly and trying to get the ik to work smoothly, trickier than I thought.

 

If ya pick one I'll model it for ya.

Business telephone. Such as push button multi line desk telephone?

[pixelplucker]

something like the avaya phones? I don't even own a cell phone so not all that phone savy

[pixelplucker]

If anyone has a business phone I would love to have some images of it. Need a nice top, side views as well as with the phone off the unit so I can model the carriage as well. Images on the net have the phone mounted so I can't see any details on the carriage.

[Shelton]

I will see what I can get for you.

Thanks

I've got a nice laptop I did awhile back that I'll put up when I have a few spare minutes. I also plan on putting up a package of the christmas tchochkes I designed last year, and hopefully in time for folks to make use of them this year!

[pixelplucker]

That sounds good, maybe we should make some turkey stuff for thanksgiving. I have some nice ideas on a turkey

Holiday packs do sound real handy.

[Gerry]

I've opened up my Christmas .prj and ready to package the ornaments, but what's the procedure? We want an image or images, right? I'm open to suggestions about whether I should make a whole package of all of them, and one image showing them arranged together, or one image per item (though that sounds like overkill).

 

I've got a menorah, dreidel, gingerbread house, candy cane, old-fashioned lamppost, stylized christmas tree, toy drum, candelstick, gingerbread boy, gold star and snowman. I think that's it. Should I put them all in one package? That makes the most sense.

 

EDIT: I also need to know the best way to "embed all" and otherwise get these packed up right so all decals get included. Or point me to a tute.

[Gerry]

Here's a shot of all the props...

[pixelplucker]

Those look awesome.

I would have a prj file with all as you show and save out the individual models so users can import what they want.

While you can 'embed all' or add all models to a single file as suggested I would recommend using the 'Consolidate' feature, specifically using the 'Consolidate to text file (.PRJ) and zipped (.Zip)' option. (see image)

 

It is the only means to Zip up all related files (including images) into one package.

 

Then all you need to do is upload the zip file.

[Gerry]

That's exactly what I did, fortunately! Thanks Rodney.

[pixelplucker]

I tried the consolidate and it didn't include the model, slight flaw imo so I have been saving out mats, models etc into a folder that also contains the prj.
