one thing i found wrong, is ur portfolio thingy. as i move my mouse left or right the scroller menu scrolls the wrong way........

Yeah, I thought it was wrong but I didn't know how to change the direction of the menu but I've just worked it out. :D yay!

check the X and Y coordinates of the text box, making sure its on a whole pixel like x: 245 y: 87, rather than x:245.3 y: 87.6, just round them up and it shud look crisper.
Will that make it more crisper? Are you sure about that? I'll give it a go......(comes back after trying it out) I cant see any different. :P oh well

changing the coordinates makes text look in focus. if u have a piece of text between 2 pixels (in other words not on a whole pixel coordinate) it can appear blurred, but in ur case i think ur font is a bit too thin. this procedure works on pixel text such as fff_harmony. i wasnt sue if ur text looked blurred or thin, so i just threw it out there for ya.

about the sound fx, i think slight subtle sounds wud be nice, but nothing too dominant or loud.

Another vehicle for my Sci Fi Docks scene completed:

I'm learning so much by following what this guy does on screen. I'd never have thought it possible. :)

Check it out:

Stunning yem, i dont feel like delving into the finer points of 3d modeling just yet.

It would also help if i knew jack ish about it.

Where did you start?

I started at http://www.3dbuzz.com.

Loads of decent free video tutorials as well a forum full of helpful people. Also check out http://www.3d-palace.com. They also have loads of free video tuts.

Let me know if you need any more help. ;)

I apologise profusely for double posting.

I made a wee animation using my Sci Fi Docks scene. You'll need the DivX codec to watch it.

Grab it here.

There's some stuff I want to go back and change. Lighting, camera movements and certain aspects of the vehicle animation, but what's there is good enough to show. (I hope).

Let me know what you think. :)

Yeah, it's all based on a tut over at 3d-palace.com.

By truck do you mean the tank/buggy or the flying cargo carrier?

The tank is made as much as possible out of a single box, but a lot of the stuff (the pipes down the side, the wheel guards, the wheels, the rivets, the headlamps etc) are all attached separately.

The cargo carrier is made from, essentially, one box. The ramps that open and closed at the back were made from that same box, but detached to separate objects so that they could move independantly to the main carrier. They were then linked to the main vehicle so that as it moved, so did they.

Yembles my good man, what program was that done with, Maya, Swift 3D?

Its so beautiful, you just need now to change the color from gray to like spacey and like have dust and stuff, and like stars and what nots in the background, pretty sweet though!

And to think youve been showing us stuff for like 2 weeks and look how awesome it is now!

Youve inspired me to give a jab at this 3d stuff!!

It's all done in 3D studio Max.

I wanted to render it out with proper lighting but it was rendering hideously slow and would've literally taken days to render the entire 800 frames. :/

I might come back and texture it when I feel happier about texturing. (Me and UVs don't get on).

Yeah, give 3D a go. Don't neglect to show us what you've done. :D

His right hand is just hanging there, relaxed. Guess i could make that look a little better, but i dont think people will be focusing on that, cause that hand doesn't move or anything.

looks good DifferentName, but I think his left arm is a "bit" short..

Been trying max again after a very very long break. it was hard. I've forgotten quite a bit.
I havent finnished this one in a while now.
the first version of the file got an error, so I had to recreate the whole face again. And this one didnt looks as good as my first one. the edges on the sides needs to be more rounder aswell(the whole face)...I know. ^^

Nice work Comlock. :D

I love the little alien dude. ;)

If you want to round out the face a bit try chamfering those edges which feel a little too crisp. Looking at it now I can see exactly which ones I would do. A chamfer or two should round it out nicely. :)

Hahaha... It's just a lot of foreshortening.

seems very tough to make 3d faces.

Nice looking Com, but i don't se enough momentum in the red ones punch to make the blue one fly like that. Maybe if the read one were closer..
