[Lord Killmore]

lol dont give him so many progs xD
well yeaht but what pixel said is right imo. switching from MS to LW is easier than going from MS to MAX . atleast it was for me.
i got a good side with LW tuts and others *as max n stuff*
gonna post it when im at my computer again

 

[LionHeart]

Is LW better than MAX? or is MAX better but harder ?

 

[TigerGEO]

Well, max is better but harder. Lightwave is simple and good . I will learn how to model to in it these days

 

[Gama]

lol never knew u did model lion, have any past model images?

lion dude to be honnest modeling is a hard thing to do.

first of all before you decide if your going to go and get into it at all let me say this :
THINK-IT-OVER!
cause once you start you just have to learn it we need more and better modelers ^^

 

[PiXel]

eh? every program has pro and contras, thereis nothing better or worse.

just you will get easier used to lightwave then to 3dsm now. if you would have used gmax i would have told you to use 3dsm.

I'll post some when I get home from school, even though they got no polyflow.

Guess I'll have to try out both, thx for the info guys.


EDIT:
My first model, no polyflow at all:

My 2nd model,still not polyflow but at least not as worst as the 1st one:

Then I screwed around with it alittle:

Then I didn't do any major modeling projects and did small stuff:

This guy is one of the 9 esf pirates movie edited models, I'll probably get back on working on it this summer.

Then screwed around with a cs model.


So... I'm not as good as all of you guys unfortunatly but I wanna be.

I said I screwed around with it, I didn't meant it to be like that.

edit: I'm concerned about what program to use cuz from what I heard all the game design companies use 3D studio max or maybe I'm wrong...

 

[Gama]

tbh really dont listen to anyone here, just try lightwave and try 3ds max what ever you find fits your needs go with it.

its true, though i asked several peoples aswell about it. and many of them started in lightwave first and when they got their first job, they had like 6 weeks time to get used to another programm you will use in the company.

Its not important what programm u use tbh, its important what you do and how.

A NOob could get 3dsm and do a cylinder an say : SEee!"=!?! I'mA PRoooooo CuZ I donE theT in 3D Sm !!!

what would be damn wrong.

A professional could get the cheapest program (wing3d, gmax, milkshape,blender and so on) and do better work then advanced artist with their usual progs.
