Hey all!

Ended another quarter in school... This one didn't go quite as well as the 1st but I still pulled through(prolly with A's) but there are other reasons why it didn't go so well. Anyways, I have some new work up, I pretty much cratique mystuff pretty well but I'm open to all other cratiques as well. Thanks!

I'm hopfully going to get back into some pencil art here soon as well. I been wanting to do it for a while but been sucked into some other things... but hopefully no more distractions! Some of these projects I may touch up in the future, others I may not who knows... I'm pretty picky on things I retouch... just hate working on something I already did. Though the Ally scene I really want to rework, but it needs alot of it. So it may be a while b4 I actually come back to it... the WWII scene I doubt I will come back to just because it's so large and needs a rediculous amount of work. Prettly much the entire environment needs to be redone, and some of the objects as well.

In any case, I hope to have some new stuff up soon. I did alot of research on mudbox and stuff so I am just looking for a few more answers on some things then I will be trying some work in there as well. In theory this should amplify my work by quite a bit with the texturing and modeling. I can't wait to get back into it all once I figure out these few answers that I need in order to really do my work. Not sure how long that will take but hopefully not too long.

I also have a modeling class next quarter so should see some new stuff up then as well! TTYL!

Thanks for the fav! Your stuff is looking good, keep up with the texturing. I spend just as much time with the textures and uv layouts as I do modeling, maybe even more.
:iconwraiththeripper:
yeah from what I been told, most poeple spend more time on the textures then the models but most of the time is spent in the UV editor.. I just recently found out about texturing in Mudbox and then exporting it out as spec, normal, ambient occlusion, and displacement maps. I'm studing Game Art and Design in college so everything I'm working towards is high detail with low poly meshes.

I don't really know anything about mudbox so I was doing a ton of research the last few days about it. From what I can gather I still need to do the UV unwraps in Maya then export it all out and add details/texture in Mudbox, and I can also export my textures from there to photoshop to clean them up and adjust them for better settings or add decals, etc.

Now that I discovered this, it changes everything on how I look at things... Only thing I am still unsure about is when I have all this done in mudbox (theoretically) how do I get all the maps I created back into Maya on my low poly mesh? Like where does the normal map go in the meterial? or Displacement map? Which is better to use and why? Other then that I pretty much figured the rest out myself.

Also on my ally scene I was pretty rushed on it.. you can see where I had to take short cuts to get the project finished but I do plan to go back into it over time and add/fix it all up. :D

I sit here pondering weather my loneliness will ever betray me. My wounds etch deeper into my skin. My sorrowful crystal lake is blood-stained. I look into a mirror showing my past; nothing but razor blades. Another blood drop trickles down into the lake
