Spartan118 - the road so far

[spartan118]

Alright so this is some of my work since I got into Digital art early 2009. I am completely self tought and other than the internet I am the only 3d artist I know, I live in a country where the only people who know what 3d is are people who play video games, and there aren't a lot of those here either... that said I mainly learned 3dmax off this very forum and the 3dtotal tutorials and plan on mastering modeling and 2d paintings, All these works where done in photoshop and 3dsmax9. Hopefully I can improve more this year. Please let me know what you think... good or bad it will probably help and will be appreciated.

Not bad for a beginner. Everything is foggy, though.

[spartan118]

Thanks, Yeah and a bit blury too, I guess I like fog. But I'll try and reduce on that.

Not bad at all for a beginner. You've definitely got an eye for it. Keep it up. Hope to see more from you.

Some really nice work there, top notch modelling, some could use better texturing and lighting but your modelling is what shines for me :)

[I_AM_DAVE_COX]

Some nice work there but those cars need some work!

Post wires if you want further crits

[himadri_sm]

the first painting of the girl is your best work & i know its also your latest. you've certainly improved a lot...about the 3d work..the modeling is pretty good..although the iron man head needs some corrections..there are a few pinches around the corners....the texturing, lighting & the other aspects need more work but i am certain you will improve...keep at it & you'll do a lot better..best of luck

[spartan118]

Thanks for the comments guys, I'll definetly try and improve my textures... its kinda difficult to concentrate on more than 1 thing, especially since I do a lot of 2d aswell... I am completely self tought and other than the internet I am the only 3d artist I know, I live in a country where the only people who know what 3d is are people who play video games, and there aren't a lot of those either... that said I mainly learned 3dmax off this very forum and the 3dtotal tutorials and plan on mastering modeling and 2d paintings, I will post some wires of some of the images on my first post soon.
