My good friends over at Flat Red Ball are 8 days away from completing their goal of $8000! This game harkens back to some of the classic 90's console games and I have played it, it is a lot of fun!

Please Help them meet their goal!

Level Up!

So I recently started digging into some new programs, Maya and Zbrush. I have been using 3D Studio Max professionally for the last 7 years so I know the modeling tools in that program like the back of my hand by this point. I have dipped into Maya maybe twice since I graduated college. Using Maya is like trying to throw a ball with my left hand (i'm right-handed of course), it's not impossible, it's just not trained to perform such a task so the end result is lacking...and frustrating. On top of learning Maya I am digging back in to learning more about Zbrush, a program that has a pretty steep learning curve due to a very deep workflow and sculpting system. That program is absolutely amazing but holy crap it is DEEP!

I found myself getting discouraged pretty easily last night as I attempted the simplest of tasks that I knew it could be done just not knowing the correct way to perform such a task. God bless Youtube and all of it's wonderful free video tutorials, haha! Be on the look out as I may be posting my triumphs and failures here over the next couple of weeks while I attempt to learn the ins and outs of each of these beastly programs.

Progress not perfection!

Oh and if anyone happens to know of any good (preferably free) tutorials using Maya I would greatly appreciate it if you could send those my way. Thanks!

yeah I know it's actually the day after, but the year is still fresh and new, and with that comes new things and new opportunities, I invite all of my watchers on Deviantart to stop by and 'like' my new "Art of..." facebook page I recently launched. Please stop by and check it out :)
