L100 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 i'm gonna cut you!!!! haha. yeah, but modelling with zbrush is pretty fun. i got bored with 3d studio max a while back. maya...i won't touch maya. it's that great. Ok now tell me why exactly you don't like Maya. I just started using it. I'm an industrial design student and pretty much I have to spend my summer mastering one 3D program and everyone is telling me Maya has to be it. So before I jump in head first, tell me what you think is wrong with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QbaOner Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 zbrush is the shit.. im in school for comp animation, right now 6 months and I've been workin on maya since month 2.. last month we actually touched zbrush for the first time.. well we made low poly models in maya and brought them into zbrush and then back to maya again for texturing and lighting.. it's an amazing program.. heres my model from last month (bust of it) unfortunatelly maya 8.5 has some bugs and i couldnt get the displacement map (from zbrush) to work in maya as good as i wanted so the model is temporarly on hold.. gears of war locust influenced creature: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QbaOner Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 maya is an ok program i guess.. but once you learn it the basic rules and tool names are the same for other programs.. my maya issues.. crushes.. bitch crushed on me in clutch times (final turn in renders), it just disappeared from my screen... so save.. alot.. besides that every version has some issues.. even tho 8.5 is supposed to be pretty stable.. i prefer 7 but still fuck in 8.5 just to stay updated.. btw save your work!!! often.. 10-15 minutes...

intercity Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 this stuff is pretty amazing. mostly working in 2D with all my design work and only getting into 3D with fabrication sculpture, i'll have to try this out. those images are pretty incredible. what kind of time is involved on one of those face models? considering someone is moderately experienced...

So before I jump in head first, tell me what you think is wrong with it? i'm a 3d studio max guy. maya is just something i don't need to be working in. i'm not in the industry, so i don't need it. you could argue, "well, why did you learn 3dsm?" my response, "for fun" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QbaOner Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 maybe, if i get some free time.. im on a tight ass schedule, and now i got 2d animation class and mel scripting... i did the final render of this guy but it was rushed due to the deadline and it came out blown out (displacement issues 8.5 for ya) i'd post it up but it's embarasing..

serum Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 hey casek have you finished all the tutorials? i got stumped at page 216 of the pdf --add another zsphere along the chain of linking spheres. um how? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serum Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 never mind i figured it out. sometimes when learning the tutorials i like to be babied and told every fucking step by the tutorial because im afraid to make a mistake. for example add another zsphere along the chain of linking spheres. means: change into draw mode, do not switch out of edit mode change the tool to zsphere click. i like the program but i wish that undo feature worked for every step because if you get out of edit mode you have to start all over.

serum Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 my first character from the tutorials. after drudging through the learning curve its really not that difficult. after i'm done i'll start learning zbrush 3. the new tools look pretty amazing.
