this is supposed to be jason statham http://www.google.co.uk/images?q=ja...&source=og&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi&biw=1920&bih=991 i been working on this for 3 hours - my first face model thing ever i have this vision of the NF team being made up of jason statham clones ! i was using rotoscopes - but cant get a good front view that is to scale to a profile, all the photos are at different angles and perspectives. im using xsi - any tips ?
I actually agree with omen here. I've been messing around in XSI for like two days now. It's easy to learn, but to CREATE is something different.
HEY IM AN ENGINEER by trade, i done "art" in school - so im really out of touch. im actually doing something - you zeke are just being unhelpful. yes the leet muffin i am quite comfortable with all the shortcuts - i havent studied XSI rendering as that isnt my priority. so going from knowing how tools work to what tool to use to make face more human - is a pain in the ass.
Have you ever tried using a modeling program? They are fucking hard to use at a beginner level, and then suddenly you accidentally fuck up the camera angle and don't know how you did so.
(and no... i never had any problems with the camera angles... but is indeed hard at a beginner level)
Omen check these videos out if you want help with 3DS Max, includes link for 3DS Max in the description: Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/user/vaughnscheunemann#p/u/49/zpegasZoCEA Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/user/vaughnscheunemann#p/u/48/FRkn_rvMB68 Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/user/vaughnscheunemann#p/u/47/3JlD8mJpw3E And starting with a face is hard, you should just remake a vehicle model or something even more basic.
But yeah, honestly speaking, try zbrush or something. XSI isn't known for being fantastic for organic stuff.
i used to mess about with 3ds long ass time ago, never created anything of substance. in comparison xsi is tons easier than 3ds. i got myself some zbrush - ill try again. I WANT JASON STATHAM TO REPRESENT NF !!!
There is another program that's supposedly good for it too. Mud or Milk something. Could be Milkshape, idk.
well i very lacking in zbrush - imported my xsi model into zbrush, and it doesnt look any better :/ from this to this
