too say that the chinese government does not go at great lengths to censor the population is to be silly.

what are you talking about!?!?! jk

just added a slit, probably going to dress her in a skirt if I ever finish.

Well my quarter is over. Sadly my zbrushed/normal mapped stuff did not turn out as well and polished as I hoped. I got really behind in the end due to my renders taking a LOT longer than expected for my maya class and I had to end up cutting the rigging on my angels and finishing the textures for them. Even the scene lacked and thats what my drive is. So all in all my zbrush class was a failure in my opinion. Though it did teach me the process of normal mapping that I can easily and readily apply to my environmental dreams. So i'll just show yall what I did. Most renders have the model with the normal/diffuse and than just white without the normal. I might touch up on this this winter if I have a computer, I leave for vacation tonight and definately wont be online for a week =( Maybe my brother will let me steal his computer to get some work done.

As for my maya models (the ones on model sheets) the rig is absolutely horrid. I did it in like an hour total and I definately want to go back and fix it up to make better renders. Time cramps suck!

oh and fyi, I can live a happy day if I never have to do another character model again in my life.

u3 for life

I can't take your comments seriously, but if I were I'd have to respond "Who decides who is stupid" The world is based upon opinion in which case majority rules. No single person can judge right or wrong.

Didn't the US Congress pass a law forbidding the suing of fast food company's for making people obesse? I think that this is something along the same lines. People need to stop making excuses and finding scapegoats for their inadequacies.

try scaling the bricks so you get a variety of sizes.

he graduated the community, got hired, and now works 9-5 every day on textures, why should he have to come home and work more? He may lvoe it, but loook at me. I'm working 20 hours a day trying to learn things for school and I'm desperately seeking a life. Enough ranting, i make no sense.

derailed

geometry or texture.

ugly so far =(

crackerjack maps between drinking and school???? wtf

maybe it was on a flatbed on a train

I honestly have no time to fix all of this before printing =(

see this looks like utter arse so far (only spent 30 minutes but tahts NOT the point lol)

It has a bump map, and its hand painted to only show the rivets and the panels properly. There is only a skylight on very low and a light from coming from over your left shoulder so I dunno how you mean from every direction. Do you mean painted specificaly on the panels or the render. It is rather scratchy but that was more of a stylistic choice. I might tone down the scratches but we'll see if I have time. Trying to futz around with my fallen angel atm.

nice, I like the slanted glass windows.

Gonna keep working probably on getting a nice render with better shadows. We'll see with what time. I have to send this out to be printed by tommorow night and I still have to work on my angels scene.

ie: the glass isn't great but I dont have a lot of time time spend tweaking it =(

agreed

too much blocky brushwork. not very interesting architecture. Too yellow.

lol

simply use levels
