First post, just popped my cherry

Heres something i'm working on and hopefully finish soon. I dont like the feet so might still work on them. Need to smooth the head and add details to the mouth, then texture before my pc crashes.

C&C very welcome.

Cheers guys

I think you two guys have my favourite words in your names - beaver and moo superb.

Shiv - i'll get back to ya on that one, I know my laptop is struggling now, theres no way i'm gonna try and animate him lol

[SHIVMOO]

booleans i a dirty word! dont see why he would need to use them in it though?

then again i dont know anything about swift. that is a 3d model your making there right? looks very nice, cant wait to see it textured!

[SHIVMOO]

i used to use booleans... but they tend to create messy meshes and nasty mess ups later...
indeed.. .there doesnt seem to be any need for them on this 1 so far
also wants to see it textured

[Stu]

yup thats why i try stay away from them. if theres anything that absolutely positively needs a boolean i will use subtract in autoCAD and import it to max. boolean is a last resort in max for alot of people.

whens the next 3d competition, we had 2 or 3 3d people join in the last few days!

[SHIVMOO]

i dunno.. we realy need to start 1... maybe make a pole on what the desired object of choice is...

[Mooey]

Sometimes I wish Swift had booleans, it would make life so much better lol But you guys are right about the messey meshes they make.

Count me in if your having a comp, the only problem I have is finding the time.

I'll make time if you do one

[SHIVMOO]

the poll is up... will set up the actual compo later... maybe tommorow. so everyone has enough time to vote

it is an awesome model tho mooey !!

yea they do, i rarely use them, but for sumthing like this, i can imagine.... screwholes. vents etc.

im not sure if u have used swift, but extruding is quite uncomfortable

No probs, should be another update soon. Too busy enjoying the sun, we hardly get it over here in the UK

[SHIVMOO]

so god dam true man ... i stupidly went cycling in it.. and i pretty much looked like a mirror when i got home

[Mooey]

The beers were flowing yesterday, i'm loving this sun.

If there wasn't so much glare on the screen i'd take my laptop out in the garden, sink a few pints and get this bloody model finished

[Stu]

[Mooey]
