Tos87, you didn't make it to the finalist. Happy that you did Something, just keep on trying and it will be like a TV Show: you'll win the Blender Guru Competition on day (if you keep up).

not deterrd bro...will keep pressing forward untill am known. that's how we do it here.
hope you guys feel me.

for your new Monika...is cool but Primus sounds a lot like the real thing. I think I will go with that just been opinionated.

just played with rust texture... regards to Andrew.

Titled it " old Cell"....very funny

kazuna:
Hope the pictogram is lucid enough?

thanks buddy... I knew you would fix it.

Tos87:
pls how do one fix this....I tried sculpting... but each time I use he sculpting brush on mesh it automatically mirrors on the other side. so how do I fix that. is there any thing I should do.
also thanks for the compliment.

please Kazuna help me if you can.
Google isn't helpful right now.

you didn't do any of these origami... give us prove.

Shimish:
Well just decided to drop this anyway. Hope I won't get into any trouble

oga mi....you too much. good to hear from you again. let me guess...you rendered with blender render.

Preboy:
can anyone help me with link to good sky textures &/or skydomes, preferably in hdr format

just wondering how to apply that to a supposed sky image or do you need a sky image... just wondering

Preboy:
Movies, Games, Music videos, 3D animated movies, adverts and the list goes on.
the problem isn't how, its if you can monetize your art... and for someone to pay money for your art, it requires it to be good enough, I mean really good.
so it boils down to if your art is good enough, if you have ideas to market it & most important if you target the right people(market).... I figured that CG art is a self employed skill, and since there are not much companies in need of them in Nigeria, so you gotta act like programmers do, FREELANCE till you hit it BIG!

the good part is that Nigerians are becoming open and getting used to CG[mostly games] and the likes, thus a big(200milll) virgin market with almost no competitors, so with hard work & perseverance anyone[CG artist] could own the next Disney & become the next Dangote

you are right

kazuna:
5. DO I make money from Blender?
Well NO.......
For now BLendering is just a relaxing (can still be frustrating) way to keep my eyes off Python and PHP.
In the future, I want to direct my first Horror Movie. OK, maybe just be part of a film production hauz

I watched blender guru YouTube video on how to make a living with blender and it is interesting. But seeing it from this part of the world...and aware of how cg art is perceived as something that has not gained much impact .... it makes me wonder how computer graphic artists like animators , vfx and lots of them can make ends meet through their cg arts.
please people should speak more on this because I believe a lot of people are having the same issue having in mind the abysmal unemployment situation in this country and not just on this nl thread but even beyond the perimeter of nl.

pics or idonbilivit.

jjk24:
have never bein able to figure dah out either,buh I fink there's a work arnd, just sculpt every thing you actually want mirrored to d oda side, after you dne den apply the mirror modifier, you can they sculpt each side with out it getting mirrored .

glad someone else is having same problem... I do hope another person would throw more light on it. . please I do need to fix it. thanks.
good animation... we are getting there. better result next time.

And for the critiques... pls we are still amateurs. so do it constructively.

kazuna:
@Tos87
Your first animation is like this!
Take a high five!

this kind if scary.... cool.
pls how do one fix this....I tried sculpting... but each time I use he sculpting brush on mesh it automatically mirrors on the other side. so how do I fix that. is there any thing I should do.
also thanks for the compliment.

donemmx:
@Tos87 cool design but looking at the cave.. it seems like u didn't use displacement maps, specularity map and some grunge texture to add more realism... but its good sha.. love the scene... did you use the golden ratio or the rule of thirds for the scene set up?

rule of thirds.

primus361:
You should have completed the story.

When you insert key frames blender calculates the in-between translations for you. Say you set a key frame at frame 10 and frame 30. The in-betweens are from frame 11 to 29 created by blender. So when making a run or walk cycle blender does not do a good just calculating the in-betweens so you need to go back and check it. In your walk and run cycles, the motion is sharp and not flexible.

OK .... I get it. hope to do better next time. thanks

primus361:
The background image didn't blend with the scene.
You didn't check the in-betweens created by blender in your walk and run cycle.
Bad Character.
Dragon not Good.
Good lighting.
Poor Environment.
Good half-story.

Love it though.

lol lol lol.....thanks a lot.
any ways the whole thing was a serious projet initially with a good story.... when I started, I ran into some serious issues beyond my animation capabilities and prowess at that moment so, I had to abandon it when I realized I wasn't getting it right . wanted to discard it . to me is just some funny stuff lol and ... but I just needed you guys to see it. . thanks again ,words of this kind pushes us for better result in the future.
BTW. would love it if you speak more on in between by blender stuff you mentioned. thanks .
