i'm a guy based in nigeria,okay. so no groupies.(at least, until i meet you sister )
I'm currently teaching some guys here in Covenant university how to vector and its been coming up great. they are learning really fast.
I choose female subjects because they have more emotion to their poses and basically every other thing that they do. That & it lets me meet with more chicks,

Shit! I'm so ashamed of myself

hey guys, sorri two days no post from me. das because iv been goin thru some changes lately. well one day i woke up to notice some deep marks on my neck. then soon realized that i dont like sunlight so i stayed indoors. then i started growin canine teeth and claws. started experiencin a deep thirst for blood and noticed multiplication of my physical strenght and nasal perception. im really scared right now particularly since i passed out one night and got up the next morning with singns of struggle and injuries on face and hands and blood on my teeth and mouth which i mus say kinda tastes good . then saw on the news something about a mysterious slayin of three men commin home from a club by some kinda monster. can any one out there help me, i jus wanna be normal again. this is a picture i took of myself with great difficulty cuz i have some crazy claws. what shud i do and what am i helllllp

That's one scary Mo' fo

@Grafikdon
Do you mind giving me a little tip on 3D human model textures? I love the detail on your close up of Idara Ekpot. I hope to get to your level someday, I've come a long way with my personal effort, now I'm requesting professional advice.

Thanks

@xothermilk
yep, mean dude! I tried to stop u yesterday wheu attacked those guys, and boy, u were one unstoppable, THING.Congrats, u just joined our creepy animals/human club

"Hit Man" Idara Ekpot of "Business and Pleasure" (Concept)

Kemjisuper. . . I dunno where to start. You have to study people (Live video photo) . Arm yourself with Photoshop (oops. . . you're already doing that) and If you have access to Bodypaint, you will enjoy textures (Nope you don't necessarily have to use Bodypaint but it saves you a lot of uv seam headache. . . no need to worry about ugly UV seams because Bodypaint projection painting takes care of that headche). Depending on how far you wanna go you may need either Zbrush or Mudbox. . . well, ZBrush since I hate Autodesk policies and try to avoid their products. . .

Finally, regardless of what anyone says to you, practice, trial and error are your best bet anytime. Your improvement becomes rapid with incessant practice, trial and error. . .

@kemji, what software? Thats really cool

@kemji, what software? Thats really cool

It's Poser4. I'm sure its quite old cos I'm sure I've heard of Poser 7 around. Anyways, I'm learning to work wonders with it anyhow

Casual lady!

awesome work guyz kemji thats a real fast progress if u ask me keep goin. however im a bit concerned for you because most of your characters seem caucasian or foreign and i know someone learnin woud immediately wanna make xters based on whats around him u know like nigerian peopl and stuff. i dont really use poser burt i think you are lettin it guide u with its props and templates which u customize. cool stuff but f u really wanna b good u must do as many excercises of creatin things from scratch that way when u have a foundation u cud then start tryin other stuff. jus like i think its foolhardy for someone to start learnin to model with z brush without prior learning 3d max maya or other of the pro softwares. i think guys lik okx zpix gdon and the rest cud agree wit me on this.so dont let poser do most of the work for you because it has limits and when you get too used to it u wud find it difficult if not impossible to do some real serious work. my opinion is poser is good for gettin some nice quick 3d but its not really a full professional 3d ware like the ones i mentiond. basically work hard to develop ur spline poly nurbs etc modeling. its just like comparing windows movie maker and adobe premier pro or ulead media studio if u ask me. quick nice and easy with limits verses difficult intricate confusing but limitless. cud b wrong tho.

any way seems everyone's pretty much a peac lover these days. i mean not enough bombardment like before myself inclusive. guess we all bizzy. anyway heres a fulani girl i did some time bak but jus textured last night in just over an hour. pretty basic texturin if u ask me mostly i photo shop.
oh yeah and i promis to soon start makin my nairaland models in scenes

oh yeah case anyone want to use her for wall paper or for further editin or even 2 plagiarize my work. edit away i don mind.

@Xmothermik
Yeah dude, thanks for the concern, but I think I can pretty much create African figure models just as well using my tools. I'm still getting the hang of 3ds max but it doesn't mean I should abandon the easy road and start with the hard road. I'll get there pretty soon,, I promise you all. I aint using my lappy right now but when I'm with it, I'll send in some posts.

Cheers

nice 2 c u understand im on ur side. felt mit hav sent the wrong message after the last post. go get em tiger.

its been a long time since my last post
i just put some blinks on my frog
hope its cool?

That's my Nightgown model!

Ps: She's a purely African Babe

@Kemji, Is that nightgown wet?
Nice one. I see you are getting very conversant with basic character creation. Now it is time to move on to the next phase. Try rigging and simple movements.
