Hi BnE,

Fine work>>:+1:

Only crit is make the buttons on your site more distinguised, the text is tooooooo small…It’s not immediately obvious where your work is.

Hope this helps.

ps:I think you’ve learnt most stuff…:wink:

ouaaaaaaaah
thx sooo much 8bitboy, this so cool you took time to visit it.
You’re right about the text, i’ll change it !
u’re kind to me, but i still need to learn lotta things! :smiley:

Salut BnE,

No problem, just observation.:wink:

I also think you should post a ZB orientated image to the forum, that way more people will hit the thumbnail in the gallery as opposed to the link in this thread…:slight_smile:

Explain why you feel you have to learn more?..You seem pretty on top of things to me, albeit this is an ongoing learning process!.:eek:

thx 8bitboy!
i made bigger buttons as you said, it reads much better now i think! It’s true i should post a zb picture to have better starting point to show my work, a much better starting than just a link… Right at the moment i’m workin on something with zb but it’s not very advanced… i’ll post ASAP. :rolleyes:

About my need to learn more, i mean that i have to develop my artistic sensitivity, in order to create better composition, better color schemes, better lighting… I think these aspects of art are part of the most important things in art.(strange sentence, sorry but i dont now how to express it another way…:lol:)
i mean much more important than anatomy or other more technical stuff. i dont say anatomy knowledge is not important, i just say that it’s way better to have artistic sensitivity than to know anatomy or perspective for example.
And to answer you i think i’m lacking of sensitivity. I have to be more experienced! all this was difficult for me to express i hope you’ll understand… and i thank you for your kind words!

ok, so as 8bitboy told me to, i post a wip of a zb object i’m working on. Still many work to do. I’m going slowly since it’s my second srious stuff i make with zb. I’m trying many different methods for modeling. i created zsphere model then exported in LW then came back in ZB. It’s currently 2 million polys. i dont know if i will go higher, cause my computer is already burning… Skin folds are just nightmare to model, anatomy is very unorthodox thought it’s based on a real tricertops skeleton… I lack anatomy knowledge. i think that when all muscles and bones will be defined and details and skin added it will look much better! zbrush is a miracle for 3d modelers! :smiley:

I don’t know Bne, you seem to have the mechanics down, and then some. Anyone can create a base model, not everyone can make it their own. You seem to have accomplished that from what I have seen of your gallery.

All the rest…texturing, detailing, well …that takes practice…both to find your own style and your vision of realism…if that makes sense.

Zbrush kind makes it easier to be free to do it all. Granted sometimes you need to relearn a trick or two, but durn it if Zbrush isn’t there with the answer! :slight_smile:

Keep on modelling…you are good at it, the rest…will come with practice, and learning this program and stretching it to fit you!:wink:

I look forward to watching your learning experiments! I have a feeling you won’t have to travel far!

Nice clean website, Bne:) …your a talented guy, love that temple scene:+1:
I’m sure zbrush will work for you, i hope to see more of your triceratops !

jantim

aminuts : ā€œfind your own style and your vision of realismā€ thats what i try to do! but yes it’s quite long, since only experience can give you that. " I look forward to watching your learning experiments!" I hope there will be plenty of them i’ll try not to be lazy! Thnx for your kind words! I’ll do my best!

jantim : ā€œlove that temple sceneā€ hehe, that’s the one most people like out of all my works. i thank you very much! i’m happy that you say the site is clean cause that’s what i’m really aiming, clean and simple but nice… thnx

:smiley: i’ll try to updte soon…
