learnt 3ds max by myself as a hobby (and a dream of making movie?lol)
for around 9 months during my free time after work (i learnt the basic of 3ds max via the internet few years back and now picking it up again ). designed & made my own gundam while learning through youtube and google. well, i think the below is the best i can do now with the knowledge i have currently. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « maybe can give me some feedback for self-improvement from all seniors here, Thank you!  *updated with wire-frame and my first time cg creation using photoshop This post has been edited by gundamsp01: Oct 20 2012, 01:05 PM |

QUOTE(Burgerlim @ Oct 15 2012, 03:35 PM) Wow.. Thats very nice.. wireframe? have to go back to my house and screen shot from my pc, i think around 40,000++ polys with turbo smooth for some rounded part, if remove those around 34,000++ polys care to share wireframe, interesting.. how long it takes you to build?  coz i learn during my free time, and design at the same time, so around 3-4 months for this project? with around 2-3 hours per day whenever i off work for each shot, it needs to run around 30 min+, so now i headache with how to proceed to animation with 24fps if i want to do it as i learning how to animate it and now try to learn how to use photoshop for some effect in those cg like photo (darn, photoshop is much harder compared to 3ds max) |

XD fulltime? have an IT job at hand, can only go part time with my hobby now, in hope one day can make my own animation just by watching tutorial online and learn from it...  and hope that someday, someone will notice and maybe (MAYBE!) give me a chance to make an animation movie? sort of...hahahahahahaha This post has been edited by gundamsp01: Oct 16 2012, 10:23 AM |

QUOTE(Burgerlim @ Oct 19 2012, 03:48 PM) Hi, There.. yea, i know when i try to move the view, the fps dropped from 130+ to 20+, next model will try to reduce the poly counts so that i can start on learning some animationThats awesome... thats kind of clean.. for 40k, but it will be heavy to animate.. Thanks for sharing. personally I work as a visualizer too.. : ) but on Retail ID, uses Max, PS, Acad as B&B tools. personally i think if you are really keen on character animation... may want to join Maya. IIRC Max is reaching its EOF cycle with ADSK (please pardon me if its not) as there will not be much new feature upcoming.. focus seems to be on Maya nowadays. HTH.. keep learning! for 3ds max and maya issue, i heard that maya is more suitable for animation, but i did the switch sometime around june, i got alienated, and dont feel like start from A all over again, so continue with 3ds max after all i try to brush up my skill first (at least reach the stage for animation) then maybe will try to test out maya |

QUOTE(Burgerlim @ Oct 19 2012, 05:35 PM) OK, its a choice thingy... but just share currently all new feature in Max are borrowed from Maya.. and is always half cooked.. haaaa.. you tried on the new slate materials interface? while its good for something.. i find it waste of time if you are doing multi mat alot.. haha, thx for ur advice, the new slate materials interface, i tried, but hard to manage, i go back to the traditional one they are very different in controlling animation.. ill suggest if eventually you really want to reach there.. ill really suggest you bite on...you may have to start all over after all.. but one thing is that you will have the concept foundation (terminology) which is good.. Hardware wise.. I am currently on Quaddro 3800, mid-high card on top end HP elite workstation.. unless u are looking at CUDA, personally finding Quaddro might not worth the $ anymore... its more for screen interface.. As most of the driver for DX is equally good now.. due to gaming tech, DX may become main stream and replace... my 2 cents.. cheers! yea, someday i will have to go to maya and try it out, but since my 3ds max has some plugin in it (primarily the vray), and also all my tutorials are 3ds max , i lazy to make the jump, but someday i will try out maya hardware wise, my laptop is just only dv6 6001tx, which is i7...that's all, dont have a deep understanding of the hardware dept. |

QUOTE(melakaboy @ Aug 1 2013, 02:42 PM) Very good for a first 3ds max animation, will be even better if you show the actual transformation, maybe using Morph. Add sun rays too thx! sorry i dont get u for the second part, morph? i thought morph is for organic movement such as facial expression etc? the technique i used is reaction control for transformation. For the lighting, i still not familiar with it, maybe i'll search for tutorial on line, but i dont think sun ray works in space? i don't know, i don't have much knowledge in 3d, sorry if i'm wrong great stuff! btw, this is toon render effect, i designed this to have cartoonish look. |
