Head Construction 3DS Max 9.0

[DanceArg]

dats not a human

[MmaLegend420]

Im going to a University as an art major and have just started, if there are any animators out there could u tell me please how to get my feet wet? Maybe get an internship in a year or two? I could really use the advice, I think Im a good artist and theres nothing more Id rather do than this... real responses please I appreciate any feedback.

[junkiego]

so how can i do this.....

[MultiEvance]

understood nothing you are just rotating it

[MrBjornka]

what the riason do that 3dsmax i do that in mudbox and share to the max that it is more realistic

[dragoonrover]

ok blabla ears bla bla

nice result mate

[merkko2012]

pero como miercoles lo haces?!!

[itchcitizen2]

ears are so underrated.....

[irvintiu]

could you teach me how to resize objects?

[patkayak]

No need for the ears when you are a Blue Man Group!

[vicsupermix]

where are the ears?

[TubszProductions]

looks like fasial

[Blackart3D]

check my tutorials on 3ds max , its really helpful!

[Alusaint]

what head reference did you use

[chihabgoku]

good job but you forgot the ears.

[MrConfrontator]

@chihabgoku haha xd, yes

[TheRunescapemaster2]

@chihabgoku you faggot the ears.

[Gloryroad211]

There is one problem with modelling faces this way that is preventing modern models from looking that bit more realistic. Only half of this face has been made and then symmetrically copied. In real life, no on has a perfectly symmetrical face, but who is going to be bothered to change it. I suppose yopu could just make little adjustments to one side but...

[silenceyouidiot]

Thats why theirs the expression, "Get me on my good side."

[gannonroader]

that's where textures come in, and better yet, zbrush.

[Gloryroad211]

good point

[RollAnotherJ]

its nothing noticeable though you dont play a game and think, that guys head is too symmetrical do you

[InSaneTK]

You are right about this, and there is a very easy way to add this. Just make everything with symmetry first, then put an editable poly modifier ontop of the model and with soft selection move things a bit. If you really want this amount of detail and imperfect perfection.

[kaminarigaston]

@Gloryroad211 1. Add Noise modifier 2. Collapse Noise modifier 3. ???? 4. Profit

The trick is to be subtle with the noise modifier and give it the right strength and scale, but it can do wonders. That is if you can control your anal side and let your precious creation get asymmetrical.

Ooooor you can do both sides, but that's more work, and what's more crucial, more TIME.

[Chillybeef123]

actually, the problem is, in game models, since there's so much to be done, yes, there is no time to make every face assemetrical, but everytime you see a still 3d frame, which has been put through mudbox, or another high poly sculpting program, there will be plenty of assymetry

[andreySC7]

hi i have a problem :| ... i use 3ds max from 2007 and i never met this thing :" when i try to lower the opacity (below self illumination) and asign to an object nothing happens ... i can see the material but opacity dont work, its always 100 :| ... if somebody know how to fix this please reply because i need very urgent ... thx

[Kiyamlol]

did u constantly make edge extrusions while modelling this? I usually make a quick cub wit ha few segments and loops pulling in and out and the rest in zbrush

i am curious and would liek to know if this is efficient

[rosshildick]

why is that sometimes people have polys that look like squares ( [ ] ) and other have a pine through ( [/] ) ??? and how to you switch between... also, how do i 100% reset maz without reinstalling??? (NOT file > REsET)

[probounderxxx]

this means ur sctructure is not good...u must do nice edges loop and all vertex merged and if it looks like a square then add more edges loop to make it more round

[slovenec3]

how can you create a face like that? do you must be some sort of an artist? or do you have surten methods to do it?

[JBudOner]

3Ds Max =D That's how

[kobracmdr]

I think the method he used is strip modelling. While you don't have to be Picasso in order to do it, an art background would help. All you really need is practice, a working knowledge of anatomy and edge loops, ohh and some more practice.

[crazykidcapa]

Hehe art helps. But in the case of asking how to do something, you might want to spell certain right :P. If you want an easy way get a side and front picture of a human head/face. Make sure they are lined up correctly, meaning top and bottom is equal. And make two Planes one front view, one side. Then use whatever object, and conform it to the shape of the pictures. Then add detail. Mostly, you want to watch a lot of tutorials

[crazykidcapa]

As well as don't just use these programs, and say oh hey I got it. It helps to try and draw (doesn't have to be pro artist style), but if you try to draw what make in 3dsmax, or especially ZBrush thanks to the auto-shadowing, you can easily learn how to create realistic shadowing, and by using the smudge tools, etc, you can basically practice doing the things in real life, and teach yourself art with a lot of practice :)

[daniloorbolato]

noo

Bush ???

[johninator95]

spiderman...lol

[Revanic45]

needs ears :P, but alot better than i could do.

[skl1cent]

cool vid!!!! hey i got a question, i used to be able to drag textures from the internet right into 3ds materials. But its not doing it no more, im not exactly sure, it seems to download but i dont see it in 3ds. can anyone help me?

[22561morty]

this is nice!

[AdobeTutorialMan]

looks like spider man sorta

[888eightmile]

i have a error report everytime i fire it up '0xc0000142' 2 be exact. any1 got any idea pls?

[rahulmartin]

can u skin or morph that face ?? pls reply

[Alusaint]

he would be a killer with ears

[Alusaint]

do you know where to find free human head references.

[jakechapy]

search porn on google XD

[Jumuhh]

ha!!

[RatmanXX]

:D :D :D

[scottman12]

u r dumb

[jakechapy]

why am I dumb some one asked for good head references.

[terples]

el,las minoo lay misan

[VeneficvsArt]

Check my account for 3ds Max 2009 Dvd.

[heydefinition]

great program, but for you using for fun - too expensive. use 3d canvas or blender instead

[dtgordon25]

nice edge loops

[hoonathan]

were can i download this program?

[selllout101]

cough*pirate*cough

[heydefinition]

whatever...but blender is really good. there are good tutorials on yt

[Alusaint]

do you know where to find free human references

[sumperliam]

thats really cool mate thanks a bundle

[kleber1983]

too many vertices to deal with, or is this the smoothed version?

[PickleJar251]

where do u get this program?? give me a link plzz

[masterpiraka]

There's this website called google.

FUCKING USE IT.

[PickleJar251]

theres a thing called a LIFE get one, for u i would get 1 at K- Mart

[masterpiraka]

Life? Don't talk to me about life.

[PickleJar251]

ur just mad u dont have 1

[masterpiraka]

Define life. Do you even know what it is?

[PickleJar251]

life [līf]

(plural lives [līvz])

n

1. existence in the physical world: the quality that makes living animals and plants different from dead organisms and inorganic matter.

Its functions include the ability to take in food, adapt to the environment, grow, and reproduce.

2. living individual: a living being, especially a person, often used when referring to the number of people killed in an accident or a war (usually used in the plural)

Two hundred lives were lost in the crash.

[masterpiraka]

Give your own damn definition.

Ant tell how taking two seconds to type a comment means I'm dead.

[PickleJar251]

that is my own defintion ur faggot so go suck ur moms pubic hair

[masterpiraka]

Go fucking learn to spell.

[PickleJar251]

Well, i guess your mom taught me wrong.

[masterpiraka]

...Well.....

I'm actually proud of you.

I was afraid you were gonna say "ur" mom in that innevidable pathetic attempt at cracking mom jokes you poor bastards always try.

Have you ever noticed all those other people on the internet that are just like you?

Those "ur a fag" and those "Ur mom got -40 kills last night" people?

You're just one of many, kid. You aren't special.

[masterpiraka]

okay...

[PickleJar251]

i love you

[masterpiraka]

That's great.

[complexcuse]

it truly is a wonderful thing. it makes the world go round. and you two are just the beginning!

[PickleJar251]

YYYAAAYy!!!

[complexcuse]

haha

[TearBleed]

according to your profiles neither of you guys have a life

[PickleJar251]

according to you responding to a bunch of comments made 11 months ago, niether do you buddy :)

[thrashsk8er86]

I model in pretty much the same fashion. My problem is connecting the ears.

[HelperPL]

how long did it take to make this head?

[Fablus22]

HAIR

[iNooBoiD]

EARS!!!

[spider853]

how do you make black edges?

[goat60804]

To: Spider853 Select Wireframe on Shaded option.

[spider853]

thanks

[bulp19]

Aaw man... this ain't a tutorial :P

[mihalceanu]

there is allways the 30 days trial 3dmax

[Sweettgothic]

um, the neck is really flat, kinda should make that rounder, just a tip >.>

[richymmx]

a 3dmax freelance artist can earn about $20K a month of work maybe more, but need this as tool.

[NackterBiber]

MuggyFuzzball you are an idiot...

Its not that expensive, besides, you can always use Blender its essentially the same and for free + open source

[CalBrettJack1995]

lol the essentially the same. Well £2500 softare compared to free. i think there will be a big difference retard

[matoro1989]

Actually Blender is a professional quality program. I don't know how well it compares in power to 3ds, but it has the standard top of the line tools, has a built in python editor, and a game creator.

I wouldn't call him a retard for making a statement that is close to true. There is a lot of money pumped into the development, it's just released as a free tool because the authors aren't greedy and are willing to take business risks.

[fhws]

how to download?

[MuggyFuzzball]

1. You get $5000 and go to the website.

2. You sell your house in order to afford the program

3. You are very rich and like tossing away money so you buy 30 copies of it.

[p0t4t0ch1p5]

LOL...

4. You wanna piss your Dad off, so you sell his car and buy a copy of this program and send him as a birthday present..

[kapperlmensch]

500$ by the way..

[jamesnoto]

It looks like you created the head using an extruding edges method.I've found this to be the fastest way to get to the shape you want when doing creatures or people. Am i correct on your method or did you use a different technique. It looks great.

[AdeonC]

he got no ears

[befrey]

can you explain how you did this?

[mariumsattar]

can some one please tell me the serial for this program??

[CammieDee]

Thats illegal

I Should reort you to Autodesk

(But Im Not :))

[sn4kp4k]

cammiedee:hey, autodesk some1 asked for the key to ur program

autodesk:well send out a squad car right away

for teh record autodesk has squad cars that can come to your house and rape you. (O SNAP!)

[BigShado]

how long did that take in real time? looks complicated

[ROWB0AT]

Very nice job. Only thing is you might want to tweak the shape of the head a little bit. Maybe a little boxy but other than that a beautiful model.

[2007unclebuck]

Thanks. The real tweaking takes place in ZBrush. ;o)

[asablic]

you can always search for keygen instead of throwing a huge amount of money.

[CammieDee]

Thats illegal

[Zatar963]

How is it illegal?

[Hungerth]

not the video.. or whats going on in the video.... read mariumsattar's comment.. he says "can some one please tell me the serial for this program??", which is obviously illegal.. :O

[Zatar963]

Oh sorry lol

[JTNickelz]

Is this software free?

[MoonOfLogic]

I think it's like 300 dollars or something.

[dunkydago]

lol, try like 3000 dollars 3ds max is a really expensive program

[thunder27111]

i would prollly just try 3ds max 5-7 those arent and besides the way he made this face its not much of a great workflow for me

[DanielSDZ]

ja i no, but as a STUDENT you get it for 300 or so

[dunkydago]

Ha well what dya know, something other aspect of life you can scrounge from when you're a *STUDENT* : )

[DanielSDZ]

k,k. do don have to mock me bout the...STUDENT...O.o

[ROWB0AT]

as a student you can't render things out without the watermark though.

[gould2k7]

what does edit poly do???

[ROWB0AT]

Edit poly allows you to edit the shape your working on. Specifically, vertices, edges, faces, borders, and elements.

[3DKEY]

this is the same technique of joan d arc but good job i think you can delete some polygone and keep the same shape

very nice job ^^

[uniform2007]

very clean looking mesh. good job.
