Nice work, Zed. It looks like they're hiking along the Scottish coast on a sunny but still cold day. However the magnificent scenery and ancient castles hold no interest for them, something more serious is weighing on their minds...

[Reply #81 on:]

Cheers very much for all the comments, glad you guys liked it

[Reply #82 on:]

Awesome job Zed.  Didn't you used to have a different avatar?

[Reply #83 on:]

I like the stylisation Zed ...

[Reply #84 on:]

Cheers very much Otis and Winna
Yeah, I've been changing my avatar a few times just recently, Winna. Went through a stage of just wanting something new

[Reply #85 on:]

Oooh, very nice Zed!

You guys shall being seeing more 3d models from me, I need to make a couple more so I can make another show reel to apply for a traineeship at Rising Sun Picture's

[Reply #86 on:]

The dragon one was pretty cool.  What prog did you say you likes working with?

[Reply #87 on:]

@Winna, I use Maya

Heres some development of that sketch I posted earlier

[Reply #88 on:]

Neat!

[Reply #89 on:]

I want to get into animation and media design really bad. It looks awesome. I am just trying to get the loans for school.

[Reply #90 on:]

Speaking of animation heres one I made for myself on another forum I go to.

[Reply #91 on:]

Shiny! Good work

[Reply #92 on:]

sweet animation. cool man

[Reply #93 on:]

That is awesome.

[Reply #94 on:]

something I've been working on for awhile:

[Reply #95 on:]

Neat *takes photo*

[Reply #96 on:]

Excellent.
Did you intend to fill in any of the surroundings more, or is it finished as is?

[Reply #97 on:]

I'm still fiddling with it.  The inside of the hangar isn't done, and there's some wiring that hooks from the power lines down to the PE building that I'd like to do if I can figure out how.  Also, the lighting sucks.  If I fix all that and still havent become distracted by some other project then yeah, I'll fill in some of the surroundings.

[Reply #98 on:]

What did you use to render that?  3DSMax?

[Reply #99 on:]

you solud get some background on it. maybe some car's or something

[Reply #100 on:]

I'm using Maya.  There was a blue sky background when I rendered it, but it became transparent when I saved the file as a png.  *shrugs*

[Reply #101 on:]

Zapp: "Just to clarify, land background is the stuff that has sky over it."
Looks good so far, though!

And cool animation, RS!

Since you are using Maya, try using a NURBs curve and then using a polygon cylinder to extrude along the NURBs curve.

[Reply #103 on:]

hmm that sucks man ;/ but you sould try anyway. to get the background back

[Reply #104 on:]

Nice pic, SO.  Does planet express proud!

[Reply #105 on:]

To get the background back is easy, either save as a .jpg or remove the alpha mask before saving it as a .png or .psd

[Reply #106 on:]

yeah, I don't think I want the background back, anyway.  I'm going to try and create something like the background that they use in the show

[Reply #107 on:]

Yeah it will look better if you make your own, even its just 2d images on curved planes.

More work on my current model.

Poly count, 2537 faces or 4964 tris.
It has two sets of UV's one set for the head the other for the torso and limbs.

[Reply #108 on:]

I'm sleepy and I decided to draw. Tried a messy style. I think it'll be nicer if I sketched it on paper and scan it and colour over it using photoshop.

[Reply #109 on:]

Stylish!

[Reply #110 on:]

neat! *takes photo*

[Reply #111 on:]

some more progress on Planet Express:



[edit]:  just noticed there's a pole in the middle of the intersection.  Whoops

[Reply #112 on:]

I think you put it on the wrong side of the river. Other than that nice job though.

[Reply #113 on:]

you forgot about the part where I put it 1000 years too far in the past

[Reply #114 on:]

Are you nitpicking my nitpicking? Bravo sir.

[Reply #115 on:]

Nice, SO.  Needs owls, though... 

[Reply #116 on:]

Neat stuff.

[Reply #117 on:]

Very cool.  It's looking good...can't wait to see the finished project (as you said this is just an update).

[Reply #118 on:]

Fantastic! *Neat!*


Also, it really sucks!

Naah... It doesn't, it's alright!

Are you nitpicking my nitpicking? Bravo sir.

I'd be happy to be nitpicking on both of ya, but I don't know what to nitpick on. :P

I'd thought I'd mention my art blog here
