I seem to remember a thread with everyone posting their 3D models of cars, architecture etc..? I hope there's some modellers still amongst you...
I've been wanting to learn 3D in my spare time for years but never quite had the motivation to do it. I was part of the whole 3D abstract craze pre 2006 but other than that, I've never given 'proper' modelling a go.
Anyway, I thought it would be good to perhaps share our models, works in progress, advice and tips? I find it pretty hard getting answers and advice from some of the bigger, more experienced CG forums tbh :\
Over the last couple of days I've been scouring the internet for resources, trying to get my head around Cinema 4D, mapping, UVs, unwrapping, it's a nightmare :\
Anyway, first addition to the sketchbook and my first ever model:
Started off with a head but because of inexperience, it was a disaster! Took me almost the entire afternoon/night yesterday to get the torso working and UVs unwrapped - which still don't work.
Second was done tonight in under an hour. Used a random picture of Ronnie Coleman for muscle reference. Still can't get it unwrapped for texturing though! Normal Cinema 4D materials were used instead.
Anyone got stuff to share?
Edit: Oops, wasn't sure which section to stick this in?
