Thanks for your input but first, you should have noted what a low poly rendition is all about and second you should have also understand that these are non portfolio or commission work that required extra time, best camera vizualing angle, lighting setups and 4k rendering, which I will not even do that, no one in the industry does that for an illustration process which is similar to what am Doing and let me surprise you, all models done here are never retouch or rework which you know that is not advisable and did I also tell you that am working on a system specs of 4g ram (3.8 usable) with no dedicated graphics card? That is doing this type of wonder with the Almighty Autodesk Maya of all animation softwares?Regarding teaching, I am a teacher and have been teaching in schools even before my graduation, the truth is that I learn by teaching and people have been asking same questions that am tired of answering hence that whatsapp group, infact the whatsapp group is to facilitate your learning curve, there are people who dream of attending this level that I am and so already opted for the whatsapp training, which am overwhelmed, those who have come on a one on one with me knows that I talk only when necessary and the rest of the talking is done by my handwork.Thanks for following this thread and hope have clarify myself, otherwis, pplease take no offense, am happy to hear from you

theGigolo:
I understand you intend to make money off of this but don't you think you should up your skill level first?

Why I am here is because of your consistency but truth be told your work is still very much mediocre and your rendering quality is sub par.

If you are gonna teach, grow first.

Thanks for your detailed response and I am glad you took the time to respond without Ill.

Back to the matter, I love your thread man and I say that with all honesty cos I visit the thread once a day to see what you will be cooking next.

If people will benefit from it then sure, my initial comment was made with the assumption that like many others on here who are still learning as well but want to cash out pretty quickly from engaging unsuspecting curious minded fellows, for that I apologise.

Carry on, btw i.am a c4d and I love product commercials and Motion graphics.

Tell me how you got started.

theGigolo:


Tell me how you got started.

I started in 2004 with windows 98 and my first deg software was corel draw 8 and Adobe Pagemaker 7, have been teaching computer since 2005 first at computer schools and privately before teaching secondary schools from 2012 to date in computer and data processing, work in a printing press as a graphic designer, got into website deg in the days of geocities of Yahoo but now am WordPress certified, Html 5 and css4 compliant, in of animation, I started with anime studio 9 I can't even the year, I stop using it when moho 10 was released, then move to toonboom pro and to harmony and stop using it and went to Adobe after effect which I am settled with for 2d animation, composition and motion graphics and in 2020, about a month ago, I entered 3d animation with Autodesk Maya. Am coming from the 2d end so is so quick for me to find my way in 3d world, That is just the story in brief.

shoutout to Phemieny

Just in
So, is hard to say goodbye but just had to endure those couple of days without system, first off, system couldn't power had been running around Ogui Road for a fixed added to drive and Ram upgrade and transfer of files, well we should be back again on our daily diary of 3d models with the continuation of snacks tomorrow.
Apologies for not updating us with this unfortunate developments and shout out to those who hit me on whatsapp, lastly since many people have been asking me this question, let me answer this here, first, my time is based on time table and the whatsapp group works as a and checks for beginners in Animation just like any other ability group where goals are made and not a regular training platform, concerning 3d animation with phone, please I do not do that and will never advise anyone serious about 3d animation to think about same either for the recommends you have been asking, first check your system specs, the version that atleast matches with it and go to a paid site tutorial to learn the software version, then you can now go to YouTube to expansiate your knowledge on a particular concept, then if you wish to get my and corrections that is where the whatsapp group comes to play which is completely free but if you want me to take you one on hand whether online or offline, that's different and I will charged you for that.
I still do not believe that I will be saying goodbye to Mental Ray and Maya as a little bit of upgrade in hardware and software versions.

Nice one but your renders lack shadow, work on your lighting. Also learn how to use normal maps

Shout out to you for following and observing as well and to many others that have ed this thread by means of viewing, whatsapp messages and comments, thanks and thanks a million time.
Yes, starting on Monday, a new modeling series will kick start and I will implement the use of lights and shadows and even experiment with a new renderer that I have never used before.
I Understand that this is a clarion call to step up the game after clocking 30days with the software, so I am accepting the challenge.

Nice modeling but the finishing is where you are getting it wrong. There is a no reflection of shadow on most of your project. Improve on the lighting aspect...

The lighting is so high though.

thanks for your

I'm using Maya for my 3d modeling subject. but the truth is it is very difficult every time you started to do things with lots of curves. like a duck? a man? It really tests my patience.

You are right, but am loving this experience, I wish I listen to my self by starting this earlier enough say March, I would have graduated since to animation but I don't want to feel bad, am battling between time as a teacher and lesson and Maya and light and it's disrupting my daily work flow and I will equally encourage others not to give up, for me, I have a path am following, I already have the end in mind that am so interested in modeling and not even the renders, infact my trainer always turn down my work if it is not on lambert in his words am not guiding you on texture or rendering or lighting those are separate departments just as modeling, count 1first and now am seeing how truly it is. With regards to curve models don't use box method use the curve tools and use your reference, that's the easiest, I have a lot of collection of what I will be modeling and animals and human are part of it. My good friend do not be intimidated with others and their renders, the true is that we know ourselves, this path is always a journey and never a destination. Maya is sweet, is simple to adapt and many myths about it makes people go for other 3d,but the same workflow and I ask why go for soft drink instead of water when you are thirsty and the answer I got was quite amazing, life is about choice and choice comes with price
