Make the big wavey structure, then use a displacement map to make those holes and tiny bubbles.

I honestly think most of you could do a better job given 30 minutes

When you cant see it ingame !i was surprised if it even has 1

The art in that "game" is truly horrendous. What a con job the entire affair was.

How exactly does it check?

It actually doesnt by default, but when you want to get your mdoel checked to get top in list
>>pic related
It does only check when you have .max or some other shit you need to pirate

Can it tell if you use a .OBJ file from a pirated 3ds max?

Check daz studio and poser communities. Half the produced "art" is generally bdsm or torture porn.

Bake the animation.

Shouldn't the treads rotate the other way?

>>534924
Just to be clear, it is actually a Mesh and not a series of unapplied Modifiers right?

>>534959
Maybe it's a MOON walker.

lynda or udemy

>>535018
No, it won't be worth it. Iterations are built up, and you'll have a much, much easier time using a newer version.

>>535024
I'll probably torrent the new Maya, but start out with the free trial first

Plugins for import/export will be so out of date.

well just look up lighting and shading tutorials with whatever program you use.
a little tip for you figure out with which camera stats the jpg was taken. so you can set up the same camera in your 3d program. this is important in order to match the lense distortion.

Thank you for your reply!

In my knowledge right now, there are 3 things to make 3D scene look realistic :

1) Modeling
2) Texturing
3) Lighting

Am I correct ?

>>533669
>2) Texturing
shading

and rendering

Export to zbrush and let zremesher do the job for you.
If it´s an organic model, do it from scratch in zbrush - it can directly export to max by GOZ.
Also, unwrap and painting directly to the model are even better in zbrush. You only use max for hard edges, animation and render.

>cycles
do yourself a favor and stop using that trash renderer

>>533782
Bro, 600 is the minimum for a preview render on a first draft

>>533782
The final render usually take from 1000 to 2000+ samples, depending on the complexity of the scene, reflections and transparencies

anyway, here is a video with some tips:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81k22ijYiIw

Not a character artist, but this is my take on how it'd work:

>Sculpt a NEUTRAL expression face.
>Retopo that expressionless face into a game-ready resolution.
>bake neutral face normals
>Rig the face for animation
>plan out how many blendshapes and which.[ optional, but helps ]
>Animate that game res mesh into each of the blend shapes.
>take each low poly blendshape back into zbrush, subdivide and resculpt detail accordingly.
>bake out each blendshape.

Each blendshape will have a unique normal map,
>ie: a smirk would have unique wrinkles on one side of his face/cheek.

Ultimately, an animation triggers and automatically this unique blendshape normal map gets mixed to the neutral/default expression face normal map.

Hope that helps.

>>535054
Well whose fault was it to pose it before retopo?

>>535056
this

do blendshapes and UVs AFTER retopo you mongoloid

That is not an easy question, nor is it that easy to answer without knowing the abilities and preferences of the to be 3d artist.

For someone coming from a classic photographic background it would be lighting.
Someone with an more mathematical sense i guess would tend more to shading/rendering (or rigging and simulations)
Someone who can draw good can easily learn 3d painting.
Animation, VFX, character design, rigging are the more difficult fields.

Abstract Motion graphics is easy to get into, but takes a while until good stuff comes out.

I would suggest NOT to look for the easy road.
It mostly leads nowhere.
Things are not easy or get easier, you just get better and faster.

>>534506
How about just trying to be a modeling monkey? Generic props and environments?
Or is stuff like that outsourced to India where they get paid $5 an hour?

>>534529
it better be top models then. just for the sake of portfolio. actual in game models are usually lowres.

you can be a texture artist tho. start with substance designer and such

>>534960
Wish I knew. Content there was fantastic.

My personal opinion is that they shut down the site so they can get lots of money from artists who suddenly doesn't have a social platform for the "NEW GENERATION CG SITE" on kickstarter. Link:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kirillchepizhko/next-generation-website-for-cg-artists
However, artstation was quicker with the delivery of that platform and took over the niche. The funding for cghub.. excuse me, "new generation art site" was unsuccessful so the manipulating asshole owners of cghub just gave away their clients to artstation.

>Did anyone ever figure out the real mystery behind this website's shitty shutdown?

Who are these guys that bought their domain? How much do you think it sold for? What's up with this chemtrail thing on their site now?
