@ Tos87 here are some screen shots from books of how its done. you can either draw them or use real life photographs of the character or person u want to model. use a program like Corel or photoshop place them together so that the features of the front and side views align. on the tab found on the right hand side of the 3d view, there is an option to load background image, which u can use to bring in ur image as a wall paper. if u can't find the tab, press N to switch it on. 1 Like

Doesn't luk gud!!.. I think I have a problem with lighting !! Wah kind of lamp do u use.. And which method will u recommend btw dis background image modelling and box modelling boss

I'm so happy to meet my fellow blender heads. I've been using blender for 3years now |

You'll all notice that I replace the background building with a 3d modeled building |

@Tos87 u can improve your render look by first changing the material specularity shader of your character to zero so eliminate the shine of its surface (unless u r OK with the shine) secondly u can use a point light or sun light with ray trace enabled for shadows. lastly, on the world settings enable ambient occlusion and environmental lighting ( which u can set to white or sky colour/texture) @Bluemagnificent, nice work. did you use camera tracking for your scene? |

Re: 3D ENTHUSIAST ZONE: Blender 3d For The Novice Of The Highest Order! by BlueMagnificent(m): 12:34pm On Dec 06, 2013 |
@shimish, no camera tracking involved, i simply used the node compositor to add the rendered objects into the background |

Re: 3D ENTHUSIAST ZONE: Blender 3d For The Novice Of The Highest Order! by Shimish: 9:36pm On Dec 07, 2013 |
Tos87:could u elaborate a little more on what u mean, cos I'm not sure I follow. what is the name of the output node u used? if it is not "composite" then u won't have any rendered output. also, what do u mean by 45layers? |
Re: 3D ENTHUSIAST ZONE: Blender 3d For The Novice Of The Highest Order! by Tos87(m): 12:12pm On Dec 08, 2013 |
Shimish:@shimish...sorry pls, i mean the end time is 45.so how can one save a rendered animation also after compositing an image, how can it be saved? Thats giving me hel of problem...after animating i cant save it in my pc like wise when am done compositing with node. The output node is called FILE OUTPUT,i will link it with d composite node yet i wont save d image in my pc. Pls shimish...can a node editor or compositing node be used on rendered animation? |
Re: 3D ENTHUSIAST ZONE: Blender 3d For The Novice Of The Highest Order! by Nobody: 2:07pm On Dec 08, 2013 |
@Tos87 Add a compositor node at the end of your node tree. The final composition/network should go into this final node. Now, go to render settings and under output, choose a path for the render output, select a format (there should be quite a few options, some for images eg jpeg, png... and some for videos eg H.263, AVI...). After all these settings, click render animation and let blender do its work. Check the directory you have chosen and you shall see the render output growing with each rendered frame. If you do not have constant power supply, select JPEG under video format so it will export each frame as a jpeg. |
Re: 3D ENTHUSIAST ZONE: Blender 3d For The Novice Of The Highest Order! by Nobody: 2:11pm On Dec 08, 2013 |
By the way, nice work Blue Magnificent. Keep it up. You might want to adjust the perspective on the composited object in the scene. |

Re: 3D ENTHUSIAST ZONE: Blender 3d For The Novice Of The Highest Order! by Nobody: 7:24pm On Dec 08, 2013 |
Yeah, use the default compositor node. It will serve as the final output. I do composite before render, sometimes renering out passes (shadow, reflection, AO...) as seperate *.png sequences so I can easily adjust them later. Sometimes, a client will come to you after the final render and say "Please, I will pay you extra if you could change this color to so-so-and-so. In that case, all you have to do is edit the layer containing that object property. |

@ Tos87, as far as I'm concerned ladanski hit the nail on the head. although I won't advice jumping into nodes until u know the logic behind them just like ladanski 1 Like |

Shimish whatsup with that your animation you are working on.....is there a way we can view it at list know is from one of us it will serve as a moral booster. what do u think? |

@shimish...my fluid simulation is always busting out of the cup is time i click bake....do yo know what might be the problem? the fluid is always leavin the content to stay under the cup.

Re: 3D ENTHUSIAST ZONE: Blender 3d For The Novice Of The Highest Order! by Tos87(m): 6:59pm On Dec 14, 2013 |
when ever i click quick effect it happens,....also when baking.also i make sure i have a new cache before baking with my work saved too. |
Re: 3D ENTHUSIAST ZONE: Blender 3d For The Novice Of The Highest Order! by otosa(m): 4:57pm On Dec 15, 2013 |
Thought, I don't know much about Blender but just stared training on Autodesk maya and maya seen very complicated software. Thus, I want to know the difference btw them and which one is easier to use? |
Re: 3D ENTHUSIAST ZONE: Blender 3d For The Novice Of The Highest Order! by Nobody: 8:34pm On Dec 15, 2013 |
The differences are numerous. Allow me to list some Maya costs alot while blender is free (unless you use pirated software) Maya is heavy (almost or even more than 1GB) while blender is still less than 100MB. Maya has fewer "free" tutorials online because of the price while blender tutorials can be made on-demand when requests are made to professionals like Andrew Price. |

Tos87: when ever i click quick effect it happens,....also when baking.also i make sure i have a new cache before baking with my work saved too.I prefer not using quick effects. I rather use the main fluid simulator. make ur default cube the domain, make an icosphere your fluid and make the cup an obstacle |
