----------------------------------- Amailer Sat Feb 07, 2004 12:09 pm First shot at 3D MAX ;D ----------------------------------- Hehe, my first try ;D ----------------------------------- Paul Sat Feb 07, 2004 12:16 pm ----------------------------------- Its um... Special... :lol: No its really good, I like it, but is that a shoe in the middle? I mean a shot at a person jumping forward, so that the shoe would be all you see? Its my weird interpretation. ----------------------------------- Amailer Sat Feb 07, 2004 12:25 pm ----------------------------------- what??? ----------------------------------- TheXploder Sat Feb 07, 2004 12:29 pm ----------------------------------- wow, cool I very much like your designs, has a lot of motion in it... ----------------------------------- Andy Sat Feb 07, 2004 12:37 pm ----------------------------------- i need to learn that for the robotics competition... ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sat Feb 07, 2004 2:03 pm ----------------------------------- um, paulbian.. I think that's abstract......... I see no shoe. ----------------------------------- Tony Sat Feb 07, 2004 2:43 pm ----------------------------------- well it is abstract. And I'm glad Amailer finally got his hands on 3DSMAX, rether then just randomly smashing his filter hotkeys in PhotoShop :lol: dodge :? why would you need to draw abstract for robotics competition?? :lol: ----------------------------------- Andy Sat Feb 07, 2004 6:27 pm ----------------------------------- no we have to make a movie in 3dsmax ----------------------------------- .hack Sat Feb 07, 2004 9:42 pm ----------------------------------- 3dsmax = hard ----------------------------------- shorthair Sat Feb 07, 2004 9:46 pm ----------------------------------- rhino = easy , leading up to 3dsmax , kinda like learning turing ot make other languages easier , but i mean if you look at it , its made for people who get paid to use it , or who love art , there is a 470 page BEGINNERS manual ( its the newest one , mines bigger ) on just hot to use it basically , its a neverending learning experiance ----------------------------------- TheXploder Sat Feb 07, 2004 9:58 pm ----------------------------------- But I think Lightwave is the best one there is... ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sat Feb 07, 2004 10:01 pm ----------------------------------- where do you guys get these? P2P programs? Bittorrent? ----------------------------------- Tony Sat Feb 07, 2004 10:18 pm ----------------------------------- 3DSMAX is only as complicated as you make it to be :roll: It has the power to create better then life animations but if you keep it down to basic block modeling then it is really easy. I found that moving into 3D art requires a new understanding of your environment and tools. Kind of like advancing into OOP java in a way. You have to think differently. Instead of lines and colors you have to think in 3D shapes
