Howdy all,

Kanga asked me on another gaming site if I could come work on some models for you guys. I'm a self-trained 3D artist with roughly three years of experience making buildings and terrains and the like. I do a lot of work rendering out assets for 2D games and usage on webpages and such (see some render work below). In my spare time, I also compose music (which I actually consider my forte), and have done a little of everything from graphic design to game creation to machinima, so I have a lot of general knowledge in all sorts of creative tasks.

I work with some rather simple 3D programs, my main being called iClone, which is a real-time program specializing in quick and easy animation. For modelling, I use the ever-popular free version of Google Sketchup. I should note that to bring a fully finished project out of iClone is a rather long and often troublesome task, as it uses a proprietary model format, so I generally like to stick with 2D renders, although I can provide 3D .objs, though they often need some touching up in blender to get the textures on right.

Hi Samulis! I must admit I'm not the best judge of 3D models, but I'm glad to have you with us if you can put up with us ;P

I believe Kanga mentioned you would be willing to work for "free" if you were able to sell your models on your site? I for one would be fine with that.

Welcome aboard!

Glad to be here... certainly one of the better and more focused projects I have had the privilege of working on.

Thanks for the compliment. What is it that makes us seem "better and more focused?" I'm curious to how we seem to random people who come on the site.

most projects have one key person who tries to pull everything along, and are generally comprised of gamers with a big view and little skill or practical knowledge. You have a good number of capable modellers and artists.

Welcome Samulis! This site has few dedicated people, and I hope you find your way into this group. We have a new worker, and a balanced one at that! cheers I'm planning on learning a graphic design program over the summer, haven't decided on 2D or 3D yet. Your know-how will be greatly appreciated.

glad to be able to help out. If you need any advice on what program(s) to try working with in 3D and 2D, I'd be glad to give advice.

Thanks. I do not have a big wallet... so anything free/cheap (less than $40) will work. I might learn blender...

Try Anim8or first, Max. I think development is halted, but it's still a great modeler to cut your eyeteeth on.

Welcome! At the moment we're a little bit wishy washy with our projects, but with your help I'm sure our progress with be much more productive.

Thanks for introducing yourself too. Smile
