Yes, don't use maya or 3ds max.

>>547246
oh yeah, go rig in Blender it's so much better for that task than Maya :^)

These are dope! I dont mind paying a little bit. Hopefully even keep me at it by spending money.

they have a lot of free rigs and u can download animations also and use it as base

I work on getting indy VR games out and onto the app stores

>>546354
Sweet! I was working on one but I never got past putting materials on my objects. What are their names going to be? I want to check them out

Model something that's 2D, like something from a show or artwork, as practice.

Literally watch any blender tutorial and then do it yourself based on what you've learned.
Lazy cunt.

learn polygon modeling and rendering in cycles

look for iridescence shaders

>>547100
Cool. Would I use them right in daz? I havent toyed with shaders yet so that will be aomething to learn.

>>547111
At this point I am honestly contemplating to pay someone to do something like that, but I am not even sure what the price of that would be and if it would be possible to make in this short time.

As I've said it just has to be a child/midget sized guy made out of tin-cans, hell the scale can be a bit fucked so that less cans are used for the process.

If any of you are willing to help and you think that there is no way I can do it myself with some asier method feel free to drop your contact info.

Model one can, model a person or use a base mesh from Makehuman, Human Zbuilder or whatever then use the initial can you modeled with a particle system or with nanomesh in Zbrush.

Thank you a lot Anon.
You've already helped a lot, but do you know any good resources/tutorials on how to do this or maybe just related tutorials that would help me make this?

>>545634
People are trolling when they say there's no risk involved. If you wonder why the board is so slow right now that's because they cracked down on a lot of pirates just a couple of weeks ago. I was lucky to get away with a $3000 fine but some of my friends from /3/ got sent to prison.

Are companies hiring PSYOPS now or something? Get out of here.

>>545639
No. All they did was to check the members list on cgpeers and then they wiped us out you fucking idiot.

the reason for this is simple.

beginners can't see the effort put it in each and every model.
so everyone will suck the dick of the guy that made a robot arm full of unnecessary shit and is poorly excused instead of the photorealistic knife with perfect texturing.

also one time i was posting in a very circlejerky community. the admin's hided my threads and deleted my account some time after.

they have like 6 admins on the site which makes up the majority of the posts. they also let total noobs get in the site gallery

Bad topology really grinds my gears.

Using doing seems overkill in that case imo.

Oldschool simplicity would be the fastest way to do it.

- Place a locked template C on a layer
- Have your C be a simple path with 3 points. Adjust stroke width, end and bend in accordance to the letter.

-Animate the body movements, bounce, etc.
-Animate hands and eyes accordingly.

Downside to this method is that your eyes aren't glued/tracked to the body.

Another option would be using AI layers and puppet pins with inertia/bounce on puppet keyframes.

It's not that hard nigger.

> I have zero experience with any kind of CAD programs.

I don't have much either myself. I'd suggest you check with >>>/diy/ as well, they actually do what you're intending to and can offer more practical advice.

>doublecad xt
Heads-up, DoubleCAD XT is Windows-only and not even in that list.
>http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/free-cad-software

DraftSight and FreeCAD look like your best bets here. Most of the other software listed here shouldn't be classed under CAD at all (i.e. not all 3D modeling applications are practical for physically designing something to be built).

If you can, come back later and let us know what worked best for you.

Will check it out, thanks

1 gorillion dollars

in actuality? 400-500$ (with turnaround shots, the logo itself,post effects etc,posing). it could be less depending who you are contacting

No, but it's proportional to your skill level and work history. If you have a lot of experience creating logos and can prove it, you are worth more. However, just bc you are worth more doesn't neccisarily mean they will pay you more, or even what is fair. Sometimes you have to actually inform them what the difference is between a $200 logo and a $2,000. Best of luck, and make sure to protect yourself from getting ripped off or taken advantage of.

>he fell for the keyshot meme!

No I'm just joking, I don't use keyshot, but I'm sure it has to do with the model Normals and possibly the geometry, as that model looks rather low poly and like some weird shit is going on where the renderer is trying to make guesses about how to solve "edge cases" and flubbing (which is usually caused by poor topology, poles, ngons, fucked up normals, and so on).

At the very least I would convert the tris to quads, check for any non-manifold geometry, and make sure the normals are consistent

>>546964
wow that's a lot to take in, it's just a really basic component this one but it's the one which is suffering the most, I'll have a look into the edges, thanks

>>546961
You can render the nurbs in keyshot, it's a bit longer but try it

your reel must suck

Ive actually had lead fx artists at a AAA game studio tell me some aspects of it were better than his
