Clicky the above to see vintage Maya 1 modelling / lighting in action. Haha.. I malas to post the pictures so I embedded the whole webpage we had to make for submission to lecturer. Bear in mind this was 5 years ago. Had to render that shit on a CELERON! Can imagine or not? Bwahaha.. you guys are so lucky.

Click on the three thumbnails for a larger view.

I was so bored,so I playing with the render again.....

Here it is:

whoa...

speechless I AM

whoa :stunned:
how do you guys draw things like these ?
mind teaching a few little tips to the n00b ?

WIP : A lady


Things not complete :
Eyes, hair, clothing, eyelashes, eyebrow, lips texturing, skin bumping, argfh!!
I'll go mad!

Btw.. if you can tell me who the hell I'm modelling, you're very good at faces.

Hint- Star Wars Mania is still on. Her lips give her clues

Very good,Chewxy!!

BTW,I got a new project too,but cant show it now because of the probs.....

How long it takes to render the human,Chewxy??

few seconds.
I'm using a fast shader.
wait till I load the slower skin texture... the last time I tried rendering -never came out

u guys so keng....

Nah.Another rendering pics for you all.....
[Cause I tired to do the new project car,so I spend some times to playing with the render again....]

chewxy..the hand looks thin....purposedly made or sumthing is wrong sumwhere?

Another rendering pics.

zomg! super pwnage laid by Cyprid!
She's a girl!
Do you want to hold hands with a girl with thick arms?
(ok ppl, with fat fetish not counted. Watch too much CSI)

Thanks Chewxy!

BTW,all the bloom effect are done with Adobe Photoshop.
I want to do all the bloom in MAX,but it was totally waste of my times,just to get the effect that can be done in few second with Photoshop.[Because the final result was totally same!]

I can teach you how to do it,Chewxy.It really easy by the way.....

nice works guys... really like all the works... always wanted to do animation, tot about taking the course at the ONE, but financial problem so nvr got a chance. mayb going to learn thru tutorials, but i lack of will and i m abit lz Will ask u sifus here for help if i ever get started

BTW where to get all the action sounds and background music to make the animation? i m doing flash so i can use the sounds too...

TEACH!
you know my email add..

or you can post here!

I think it's better to post it here because everyone can know the fastest method of bloom rendering trick.....

Ok,lets get started.
First,I will take this rendered picture using 3dsMax 5.After that open the Adobe Photoshop.


After that,duplicate the layer first!


OK,now go to image/adjustment setting & click at brightness/Contrast settings.[I use +36 as brightness,+80 as contrast]


Now,Desaturate the image.


& now,apply Gaussian blur.

My setting is 5.6 as the pixels radius.

Finally,change the master image setting to linear dodge.

For now,you image has got a bloom on it!

BTW,playing with the master opacity,gaussian radius,Brightness,Contrast will greatly effect the image.So the best way is,try to expreriment with it......

Some of Ferrari new render:

MENTAL RAY IN 3 EASY STEPS!

Step 1 :

Set up your scene and lighting (since you are using GI, one light is usually more than enough

Step 2 :

CHANGE your renderer to Mental Ray

Step 3 :

Play around!
Each computer can take different settings.
If I render 10K rays in my computer, definitely it will look good. But it takes 12 days to render 1 pic, forget it
So, I set to 100 rays

Rule of the day : Always play around with the settings until you find your favourite
