Are you finding that your sketch books are overflowing with characters these days? Have you been wondering what some of those character would look like if they were a little more three dimensional? Well come on in and Enter the Third Dimension....
Q&A
Whats this Enter3D stuff then?
I've been doing tutorials and 3D training videos for a long time now. I've been working with more and more 2D designers and especially 2D character designers. More and more people have been asking about how to get their concepts into 3D. This new area of my website is designed to help.
What will I find there?
Help and support for one thing. I want to help anyone new to modeling get a feel for how subdivision modeling works and how to learn the basics. The new area of the site is broken down into:
An Introduction
The Basics
Some Projects
A Subdivision modelers Primer
I will use this framework as a place to keep my future tutorial videos. If you have specific requests then please feel free to add comments in this blog post.
Is it finished?
Nope. Not by a long way. I've been getting help and feedback from some amazing designers and I've been given some amazing character designs to use in future tutorials. The site is there as a resource for future modelers and a place to add new video content as I produce it.
Thanks have to go to Wes and the KURV guys who host all my stuff. The ever supportive Nevercenter Silo team for sponsorship and encouragement. For help with or for providing character designs and reference images James Yeah!, Moopf, Tado, Steve Cairney, Steve Talkowski, George Coghill, Lawrence Basso and many more to come.

Oran Parker for design feedback. What would I do with out you all and the hundreds of others who I have the pleasure of interacting with on a daily basis. Thanks!

ReplyDeleteHey, I've always loved your tutorials. I'm currently going to school for animation but I do want to learn modeling to the point I can use them for animation purposes and I would like to see you do project regarding modeling a basemesh (for sculpting and animation) then take it to zbrush for detailing,etc.) Could you do that?
ReplyDeleteLove your tutorials either way.
