Hey my name is Felix Forsell and Im 14 years old, I have just blender 3d in 6 mounth now, for 3 weeks ago I started with gimp for texturing " I know that many people recommend photoshop " but that cost to much and I want to do legal work so Im not going to download anything, Im going to post some pictures now of something I made the last week, Im using unity 3d free version so Im not able to use shadows, I know that I can use baked shadows but anyway I havnt tried that out yet : )
Looks nice. Impressive actually considering you figured out how to use Blender with that interface. BTW, uploading your images as JPG would make viewing them a bit nicer for some of us with slow connections. Keep up the good work.
@IonDave: That’s a matter of opinion. I had a lot of trouble with the Blender interface at first, but now that I’ve figured it out any other 3d program feels weird to me. And it was only a matter of days before I could handle the basics. It may be a bit clunky, but I have no problem with the interface and I don’t think it should be viewed as a drawback. Once you get used to it, the workflow is really fast. Just my opinion.
Oh okey I havent thinked that way : o Im taking the screenshoots with fraps free versions so I cant make jpg formats but I can import it to gimp and save it as Jpg, I will do that next time! : )
I dont like the quilty on the print screen button, but I will do that the next time, and thanks for the link I will try it out when I get in trouble : )
Some one get this kid a copy of max lmao, great work man! You should get your parents or guardian to take a look at this stuff, give it a few years maybe less and the right tools you could be making a fair bit of money from this play ya cards right that is. Look into photoshop elements its not as good but beats gimp and is a hell of a lot cheaper, Also if you can find it there is an old school free version of 3ds studios max called Gmax, its totaly free and legit just hard to find.
Need a hand pm me mate, i started this at your age to, wish you all the best mate.
Impressive. And if you keep doing it, you’ll be getting better and better in it. I’m curious what you will be able to do in couple of years from now.
I guess If I started modeling as early as you, I might be able to do something interesting now, but probably I couldn’t make even simplest model, that would look nice. However, I stared programming, and I think I got quite good in it;)
Instead of painting and photo manipulation to make textures, you can also construct textures procedurally. It takes alittle getting used to, but is very fun and productive once you get your head around the idea.
Hehe thanks man thats cheers me up to hear : ). I donnu about 3d max I like Blender so much. what can you do in blender that you cant do in 3d max ? , and about photoshop that cost to much for me right now, but maby I will buy it when I have enough of money : )
also a good alternative to Gimp is Paint.NET. http://www.getpaint.net/
I like it a little better then the Gimp for if you can’t afford photoshop. There is also photoshop elements a cheaper version of photoshop, you might give that a try.
