Now you gone and done it!

Post by Aceman »

OK, so some of you may know I make a living doing multimedia development. But honestly, I don't get to do very much 3D these days. Mostly it's webpages, charts, animations (AfterEffects), etc. But the 3D stuff, well that's the BMX bike that's been sitting out back of the house for a while.

Well, thanks to my connections with the US Educational system I'm able to use 3DS Max 2023 for free. So I've decided to slap on a helmet and take the bike out for spin - you know, see where the road takes me. I'm going to start out small - but maybe just maybe I'll find myself reigniting the 3D Flame.

I think for my first project I'm going to model a Mark 48 torpedo. Just so happens that my work needs line up with my 3D itch and I think it's a relatively simple model, but I want it to be as accurate as possible so that if I want I could use it for my job as well. There is a fantastic model on TurboSquid.com , but I'd like to take a stab at it.

Wish me luck. I'll post my progress - if any - in the WIPs area.

There a lot to learn, all the best with you journey in the 3d world. Torpedo's and bombs are good way to start.
