1st time using shapr3d and I have 0 idea of how to edit a photo to make it 3d

someone who knows how to use this old 3d program where masterpieces like killer bean and other shit like that were created, for example a guide to teach his intuition.

I have reached a newer skill level, my friends.

Even Blender Guro tells you to use AI now.

I'm noob, can someone help and explain how to make animatons like that in blender? Just manually move every single bone frame by frame?

Don't clown me too hard, first time trying to model a character (Laughing Octopus from MGS4)

Meanwhile you fags keep having threads about Autodesk vs Blender and AI 3D flamewars, I keep improving, chuds.

This is now my current level.

I have less than 1 week to make a character from nothing. I can't waste time on bad stuff. I don't really know what I'm doing. I don't know what the community considers good or not. I've found like a dozen that look good but idk which one to start with, I don't have time to try them all out! Please post your favorite tutorials, most helpful, most useful, most amazing tutorials. Will be starting one today at random if no good answers.

Lately, I've only had commissions for fixing car parts. I tried modeling a basic face the other day and got frustrated.

I need to start from scratch.

>First creation software with fully featured amazing SDF 3D modeling, which even today is still the best execution of the method that there has been
>Had a PC port in development with export features tland everything you could wish for that was near completion and almost ready for release
>Got canceled at the last minute because if media molecule layoffs
I will never forgive Sony. Fuck wireframes, fuck meshes, fuck retopo, and fuck Sony.

We should all start using tripcodes, to make retards easier to filter.

Does anyone else hide funny numbers in their product renders?

BREAKING NEWS
Clair Obscure : Expedition 33 uses blender in their Environment, props and character department, NOT SINGLE MAYA ON SIGHT, first sign of blender take over to become an industry standard

I did it chuds.
I fucking did it.

I got an AAA gameloop done cheaply.
:D

Took me 5 months to make it, not 2.

I actually did it, chuds.

Why is there not a 3d modeling program with the exact same controls as forge mode in halo?
Forge mode is unironically the one of the most intuitive control schemes for manipulating objects in a 3d space. It would make 3d modeling much more accessible, at least to casual users.
Tell me why this wouldn’t work.

Hi , does anyone know of some resources on how many segments should be used for cylinder/details/bevels for modern AAA hero assets ?

I've completed my donuts. So what now?

>make plane
>align plane to photo of object
>extrude plane
>have object
I'm an artist :)

I need AutoCAD and Sketchup pro from before the Trimble ages which can be 2015, 2016 or somewhere in that era. I know the standard answers from fags who never used the programs. Those are the standard answers resulting in anon getting a 30day trail of a shitty student version (with not half of the functionality you need).

WE MUST BYPASS TRIMBLE BRO'S

• What OS do you reccommend
• From what year
• From what method, site of downloading
Proven to be effective and resulting in using the whole product without limits.

Thanks for your info. Youre knowledge is appreciated and your contribution got lots and lots of respect. You know what the internet is 2025, thanks for your support anon.

This whole plane was an afterthought and thus it turned up not being subdivided properly. Now I want to manually subdivide into just grid according to vertical and horizontal vertice pairs. Basically to make all top vertices connect to corresponding bottom vertices, and the same for vertices on left and right. Knifing this manually is bothersome. Any ideas?

I don't think animation is for me

I'm digging around E33's models in the hopes of 3D printing Lune. I've already done this in other games with other models, so I'm familiar with making the models manifold, breaking them into parts that come together seamlessly, etc. I struggle with getting the characters to pose, and that's what I'm going to talk about here.

Files were extracted with FModel. You can get the unreal asset map on nexusmods right now. Game was made in Unreal 5.4. I'm editing in Blender, and I imported the .pskx and .psa with blender's native extension.

You can find the skeleton in the files at Sandfall/Content/Characters/Heros/Lune/SK_Lune_Placeholder.uasset
and the animation is at Sandfall/Content/Characters/Heros/Lune/Animations/BattleTurn/Lune_Idle_Base.uasset
for those who want to follow along.

I think the problem relates to the armature that comes with the skeleton in the .pskx, so I guess it's time to learn everything I can about armatures and posing models.

Alright, you absolute bunch of fucking idiots, it’s time to talk about AnimBot. This goddamn plugin STILL hasn’t been cracked, Maya itself is already a total ripoff, but now they want us to fork out even more cash for essential tools that should’ve been in the software years ago, And the fact that nobody has cracked it yet? What the hell is going on? Why are we all just sitting here letting them take our money for something we should already have?

There's context:
Now i'm trying port models from game "Megaglest" To Warcraft 3 world editor. Megaglest's models was in format "g3d", and i have a lot of butthurt to open them. But finally i dd it. But there's a new problems:

I can open them in blender 2.90 with special add-on. I can play their animation, and their textures are correct. Anything is good, right?

But to open them in " Retera's model studio", or "Matrix Eater 3d", or in 3ds max, i need to convert them to other format. And there's the first trouble.

Format OBJ - Freely opening in any other program, but absolutely no animation.

Format FBX - I hear that he can save animation, but in the practice, programs can't open this file with this format.

And i sacrifice the animation, to open model in Retera's model studio.. But when i did this, model has no textures.. And i wonder why?

When i trying to forcely wrap textures on model, program claiming the error. And i was trying various formats. Blp2, png, mtl, but nothing ever happens and i CAN'T UNDERSTAND. PLEASE HEEEEELP...

I notice most beautiful eastern video game characters have this downwards pointed top lip (tubercle/procheilon?), and while you occasionally see it in whites it's way more common in asians. Idk if it evolved from diet, sexual selection, whatever, but it's a subtle but important part of cuteness in asian characters. Just check any game character you like to draw/model and you'll start noticing it. And conversely it's quite rare in western character design.

How well do traditional/digital art skills like anatomy, proportions, gesture etc. translate over to 3D modelling, bros? I think my drawing skills are fine and would like to learn modelling.

Comissionfags, have you ever dealt with revisions by a client? If so, how was it like?

I want to get into commissions but I worry that I won't be able to satisfy the client's needs. And worse case scenario: they ask for a refund if I cannot deliver to their standards.
If it were 2d, then it'd be way easier to revise again and again, but I understand that 3d is a completely different beast and that revisions aren't as easy.

I had a thought about this picture. Do you think they had to slide the perspective extra high to get the boobs to stick out of the silhouette?

How would I go about 3d printing / rendering this kind of plastic bits to this kind of detail and sized specification?
Is it just trial and error or is there some kind of tool that could make it exactly this size and compatible.

I PUT A SPELL ON YOU

Hey /3/
I want to retopo this model. I work in 3ds Max and found it to be lacking.

Are there any tools that would allow me to "relax" and curve some of the topology? I want to keep working on Mesh, but I also wish I had a smoother shape.

Or should I move entirely towards different software?

I'm the anon that was answering questions in the old ArcSys thread before jannies shit the bed. I thought it might be worthwhile opening up a general and posting resources I've gathered for those that want to get better at the look.

how much does it cost to have 4 characters like this made?

Only way to have a good looking tree is spamming 1000000 vertices

A thread for work in progress of your projects, for recently finished projects or things you'd like critiqued.

Talk about CAD! What tools do you use? What are you creating with those tools? Are you making them for 3D prints or machining? Try to convince me that your favorite program is irrefutably the best one and why all the others are trash. Just talk about anything related to CAD!

What do you think is the most comfy platform to upload and organize your projects? Basically I'd like to:
* Create some kind of entry per project, with title, would be amazing to be able to manually set date from past for when you want to upload an old project
* Under this entry post screenshots/renders/files in form of images and videos and models
* Maybe some extra description field that allows leaving some extra notes and information on the project
* Maybe a comment section if someone wants to ask anything about it
* Maybe some kind of visibility setting that allows certain projects to only be visible to certain categories of people? For example I want to upload everything mostly just for myself to go through my stuff and get reminded of progress I made through time, but many of those projects are something that I probably wouldn't show to just anyone

A 3D joke will land you a girl at the bar.

I notice a pattern in these art learning discords that good students with genuine questions get ignored but people who have bullshit questions and look not as great get a bunch of feedback. Is there an explanation?

How do I make this? Zbrush?
What specifically do I need to learn to make it?

Does anyone have a blender model for Serena( The first decedent)?
I want to add her to my scene

How do you even make awesome renderings like picrel?
All of mine look like poor video game renders.
Will be grateful for any and all helpful ressources you could point me to.

Experiences with downloading the software and what do you recommend?.

Rutracker, torrent options, other methods?.

Recommend please some good looking games combining 3d and pixelart. And I mean actual pixelart, not low-resolution photorealism of older games or glitchy gritty unfiltered noise of some newer indie games. Bonus points if they came up with smart ways to light/shade it dynamically (anything as cool as modern anime NPR lighting but for pixelart?), turbo based points if they have textures done in multiple grid sizes for LOD, which would be especially spicy with true pixelart. Oh and please don't say it's impossible to combine pixelart and 3d in a meaningful way. People said the same about anime as well.

Where do zoomer fags go to get written tutorials these days?

I've learnt sm 3d shit and havent made a cent so far, I mean am I that bad? or is the industry dead

Anyone know how I can fix the topology on this so it doesn't get fucked when I put a subdivision surface modifier on it? Thanks.

Can I still make money if I only know how to model basic things and have a crappy PC?

I'm working on my first BIG animation. How's this lighting and coloring looking bros ?
