I like the guy in the middle, he's sweet. The others are good too. I have started doing the tutorial on Blender but haven't finished it yet.
P.S. Why aren't there any textures on them? JK

Gerlandox · (#3 (**permalink**))

Well they are no textures at them becouse I`m still in the modeling phase
I`v just finished the characters I`m working now with the sets and scenography,and i can controll much better the lightning FX when the characters and sets havent textures at all. I leave always texturing and rendering as last steps, Just to keep low te render times.
1-The Bad
2- Some ghost of that world I`m creating
3-The good and wise
I`ll try to upload some set shots maybe you can add some sugestion abaut them.

Whoa, thats great, I know how hard it is to create sth like that. What program do you use? I used to use 3DS-MAX
It really looks fantastic!
The face of the first pic

Hey, that looks really good work. 3D is hard, I've been trying to attempt it for a while, and I can't work it out. The only thing I can do is Poser [lol].

What program did you use for it?

I downloaded a program called Blender and I was just like >.< But I also have 3DS-MAX aswell.

This is my workspace
I`m a Lightwave 4 ever althought I`m trying to jump to XSI,
SOFTIMAGE XSI.
3DS MAX was a good app when kinetix owned it, now it has become a comercial tool, just like Maya was getting on the top ... and then autodesc byed it. all they do now are just adding plugz and expanding an app that already was before difficult enough to learn.

I think Lightwave is a tool 4 artists Light and powerfull
MAYA a tool 4 matematicians
XSI a combination of both

My tools now are Lightwave, XSI, Digitalfusion, Videotoaster,AVID LIQUID,
Well The adobe package and stuff like that is a muss 4 a VFX designer.

And why did you stop making 3D ???

Ah I see, I've heard of Maya, but yeah it got bought out.

It looks damn complicated, I wish I could learn it but I just don't have the time. While being on here I'm doing one of my media essays ¬_¬

But hopefully when I do Game Design in University I'll get experiance with these programs.

Autodidaction is the best way to learn.
You know The teachers that teach today 3d anim and art are all autodidact in this field.
of course you should have some drawing and plastic - sculpture talent and the will but thats all you need.
I dont want to make a publicity I think you should try
Lingtwave 3D its learning curve is extreme in comparision to Maya XSI
It doesent need any special knowledge to get the "tick" of it.

KEEP ON TRYING, It`s a beautiful job
I can help if u want

Whooa a lot of new names I have never heard of. I only knew cinema 4D and 3Dmax, and one I have forgotten the name. How much do those program cost?
I stopped it, cause my computer is too bad for those kind of programs. I have to get a better one first T.T
I started it in training school where they had better computer than mine.
