Can someone review my issues with Blender and present a diagnosis? I'll be actively comparing myself to someone else that started at the same time. Both have no previous practical experience (Mine was like 2 parts of the Blender donut years ago)Please help me decide what to do
nigga how can u fail at blender? whats ur goal
This involves making lewd/mild NSFW for a /vg/ general.These following three are mine, remember the first one, it's the latest one.https://files.catbox.moe/ mvy20q.pnghttps://files.catbox.moe/ uk3qyz.pnghttps://files.catbox.moe/ niq3zt.pngThis is the work of the person I feel compettitive about, jealous.https://files.catbox.moe/ dir9u6.jpghttps://files.catbox.moe/ jtagae.jpghttps://files.catbox.moe/ t0drb9.jpghttps://files.catbox.moe/ r7jovq.jpg
>>986404u have no sense of composition or lighting. actually look at ur refs and see what sets them apart, or look at any tutorial on these topics
>>986404all of these are bad but your newest one would be better than all the others if you turned up / added a fill light + pushed overall exposure a little more in camera or in post.
He can and has made lots of others renders. He can make more than me, he's better than me.I take too long doing things and I don't know why. I tinker and tinker and it doesn't even come out right. I struggle with posing, I don't understand poses at all.Remember this https://files.catbox.moe/ mvy20q.png (just join it, nsfw) It took me 6 hours, I watched tutorial vids in the meantime but 6 hours and I failed. This is the 3rd render I make in total. I didn't even add cum or sweat, I wasted time.>>986407>>986408I don't know what you guys are talking about. Plus I couldnt get the tongue to make contact or spit effects, her expression and background clutter. I'm tearing up at my failure
This one took me 5 hours I thinkWhy do I take so long to deliver nothing but shit?>>986408>>986407Composition? I use references but I don't understand composition. Should I just copy the references for now as I see them?You guys have no idea how much I struggle with poses. I don't understand it and can't pose for shit.
I clumsily try to set a camera one I realize the pose cant work. I tinker and waste time with poses and nothing worksI am frankly discouraged to try again after failing. Cant even get body fluids, cant get anything. I can't do poses or expression, he is better. Why?So what's my problem?
jannies, rangeban him please. he does similar whiny stuff for ~2 years already.
>>986429>try to learn something>fail>rightfully complain and worry about itWTF hate him
>>986429this troll been here for 7 years give or take
Can I get some feedback?
>>986413>So what's my problem?No eye for visual art, sorry to say this. Cut your losses and try something different, this is the best advice you will get
>>986445It's what I feared. I have no visual talent. I have no talentBut why? Where can you see this?
>>986404heh its like Global Illumination is the only Illumination u know.
>>986449The latest had a 4 light set up, it still looks like nothingI failed.
>>986401Can someone ban this attention seeking faggot already?
>>986460I just want advice or a diagnosis
>>986461diagnosis: schizo and/or pedo and/or troonadvice: 1 dose of .45 ACP applied directly to the forehead, temple, or roof of mouth.
>>986466Im neither
>>986467Yes you are. I'm a professional psychiatrist.
Still asking for feedback
>>986512Have you considered you might be stupid?
>>986546Yes, but even then that can be worked on.What are my issues? I believe I am complicating stuff for no reasonReview this >>986404
>>986555needs more lighting. You have to light it like it's a movie set. Not with logical light like the ones you have models for in the scene.
>>986625and on this note I saw this one lewd 3d animation recently that had "bad lighting" like if it were a real film he would have failed to light the scene well. specifically the light appeared to be mounted on the camera, like an old camcorder or a news camera. Well to my eyes anyways the "bad lighting" made the scene look more real.
>>986446Just watch some videos on photo composition. It's not that difficult
>>986625>>986626I've been trying this but there's a lot I don't know. Lots of post I need>>986631I guess, I am just worried I am not a natural
>>986699>I am just worried I am not a naturalmaybe you should watch Marco Bucci's video about how he became a pro artist who works for Disney and Marvel etc. despite having no talent when he startedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmUMhMs5vFE
I've practicing lights and yes, there is an improvement in every scene. Now I see my mistakes clearly>>986709So I have no talent? Why?
>>986446watch older pixar and you'll see how shitty a lot of the rendering actually is, what carries those movies is their fundamental understanding of composition/camerawork, color, form, sound, movement... It goes way deeper than a "4 light setup". Natural 'talent' is just being able to pick up on these things on an intuitive level, we all know an amazing artist who cant really articulate what theyre doing to make their work "good". Not having this doesn't mean you can't hone it in a much more deliberate way, but if you plan on making a career out of it you'll be competing with 'natural talent' the whole way
I think I am unadventurous and that's why I fail. I don't dare to just try and improve.>>986718I see.I know what you'rr talking about. I am into paintings too. But do you agree with me not having talent? Why?Been watching vids about composition
>>986719you're just now taking interest in this, while the people youre comparing yourself to have been interested in it since they were little probably. People who take this sort of thing seriously dont just think about it while theyre working or when they look at paintings, it literally becomes the lens they see the whole world through on some level. Look for beauty in everything you see and it will manifest in your work
>>986718I rewatched a bit of The Incredibles recently and was amazed by how horrible some of the scenes and characters looked, kind of impressive. Of course they still made it work and feel awesome
>>986722That other person started at the same time, 2 weeks ago?
>>986772They probably had either more experience with making art in general, or possibly a better innate sense for composition and render concepts.Either way, there's nothing stopping you from getting good enough to impress the philistines on /vg/, probably within a few more weeks
>>986775My problem is I am ashamed of myself. Even when I draw, anything creative.I made a scene with enough tinkering that can already look like their stuff, bothered to add fluids, play with rough and such, picked an easy pose. Lights, best ive done so far.But I am ashamed of myself, of doing anything creative. So I dont practice enough, ive done 5 renders in total. I am shit due to not being brave enough to do more. Instead I whined and complained and got depressed. I am somehow embarrassed of this
>>986404>jealous of someone who is barely better than youkinda weird1. your lighting is bad. it's worse than if you just used one of the hdris which come with blender, let alone downloaded a more interesting one off a hdri site. look at people who are actually good (not your competing anon) and try to recreate/reverse engineer their lighting. turn off all your lights and go through them one at a time to see if it's doing what you want it to do. adjust them until they are doing what you want, namely highlighting areas in the image, making things contrast against the background, creating interesting shadows, lighting things so you can see the details, etc. in your latest pic you have a few lights off to the side but the face is dark and you can barely see anything on the dick. also try to make the lights exist in the world of the image rather than just inexplicably existingdo this and other tutorials where you download the project files and try to apply the lessons yourself don't just blindly copy what they're doing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bum0F00TaKUmy biggest lighting tip is that eye highlights (which you don't have) are extremely important as they instantly give life to the character. make sure they're small (light with small radius) otherwise they look weird/bad
>>9869272. your composition is also bad. your latest picture has terrible framing with a huge pointless area on the left and the focal length makes it even worse. there is contrast between the bg and foreground which is good but why even use a background if you're just going to leave it completely unlit and have the character on an un-textured cube(???)tighten up your camera on the areas which matter and if you need to make it a vertical image then do itsee attached picture for the difference an fov adjustment can make (ignore bad deformations) and i'm not saying you should be using one or the other but try to think about it and see which works best for your picture. your latest pic's low fov is making the face/dick/hand way larger compared to the rest of the scene. if that's the look you want then fine but try to think about what you can do with the camera to change how your picture looks3. your posing. you have fallen for the classic newbie trap of "what do i do with this hand oh god i know i'll make her grab her boob". try to be a little more dynamic and think about the position your characters are in. is it a comfortable pose? is it even realistic position for a human to be in? where is the character distributing their bodyweight? are the shoulders in the correct position relative to the body and arms? if you need to just get in the position yourselfyour second picture (black void one) has the best posing. it has the best lighting too since you've actually made an effort to rim light her but it is overall quite blandalso stop being neurotic and shaming yourself for not being good, nobody starts out good. no one is naturally good at things. you need to learn over time
>>986928>>986927Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, now I've seen vids of lighting and such I realize how bad my stuff is, same with my framing.I did go back into changing the light for that and there's a bit of a difference but beyond a three point set up, I'm too new.Your Jinx example is good, I just saw to stick on 50 to 30 mm range and as a newbie I got scared.I have no idea what I am doing beyond trying to copy r34 pics or magazine pics (black void) I neer to think more, been on panic auto pilot and reacting to my own pics.[spoiler]Care to add me on discord for feedback please?[/spoiler]
>>986928>>986927I just cant replicate poses at allTried right now with a simple BJ kneelong one and couldnt position her backI cant do it
>>986929yeah that lighting looks better from the thumbnail. there's also the extra step of taking your render and using post effects on it to make it even better but probably just stick to the basics for now>I neer to think more, been on panic auto pilot and reacting to my own pics.maybe stop panicking for no reason, you aren't under time pressure unless you have a terminal illness or something. this is meant to be fun. i have a huge reference folder i refer to so it's not "bad" to try and copy existing stuff, don't feel guilty or whatever about itand no i don't give out my discord, apologies
>>986932I just failed right nowI couldnt understand how to position them to get the same desired angle as the pic, it was a double bj so 3 modelIm anxious and depressed, dodnyou read how long it took me to get those pics, 6 hours for two explicit onesI dont get posing, that worries meWell I do hand it out, and Im going to try at least Its phanterfan
>>986933just relax you don't need to do everything perfectly the first time you try it. you also don't need to do things in a specific time frame. i've worked on some pictures for multiple days and some for just a few hours, if it takes time to get it how you want it then that's just how it isit sounds like you have very bad anxiety problems which should be a higher priority to fix than improving your 3d porn abilities
>>986934I am anxious yes.Its just worries me that I was unable to understand and replicate the pose, do I bend the back? The neck? I couldnt get the angle so I panickedCan you at least take a look maybe? Keep my tag or watch the thread?Trust me, I don't get posesEven did the pose myself to try to see which bones bend
>>986934I spent 20 minutes trying to get the neck and head to perfection to the reference(This is why I take so long btw) and O cant make sense of it
And I dont think I can get it. I should fucking end it, thats what I should doI cant understand 3d posesI couldnt make someone kneel and look decent
>>986940Look at her neck, thats suicide worthy to meLook at her fucking neck
Another exampleI just dont get posesif I dont get poses what remains? It might be impossible to improve of I cant get poses right now
20 fucking minutesSpent tinkering with her neckThis >>986940 is what I getWho am I kidding? I cant do this? I dont understand poses, fucking poses. I have a human body, I should get them but I fucking cantI am crying again right nowI couldnt get thr two girks to kneel and guess what? Have their necks and head look upIf this is giving me trouble, Ill never improve its over i dont have talent
>>986928I couldnt do pic relatedThats my issue hereI couldnt, I cant do it
So I got banned from a discord abiut nsfw blender
it's strange that this board attracts such a high percentage of schizoposters
its easy to download a model from smutbase and make a render. Making your own models/learning how to draw is much harder.
>>986965I can't imagine why that would happen
>>987001I cant pose her neck
So should i continueHow evenI cant
>>986965that's a good start, now make them come and sugondis
>>987011Fuck offI failed The neck is not exactly as the referenceAngle of the neck and shoulder
>>9870122D isn't 3D, genius. 2D artists cheat anatomy all the time. Find the cheat in 3D that makes it work.
>>987032I cant do itSo I shouldnt use 2d refs?
>>987033Maybe stop being a perfectionist bitch, and settle for "good enough"."Wah, wah! it doesn't match 100%!" Shut up, cunt. Make the neck look not-retarded.
>>987035I did not finish the idea at all>>>/trash/66671388Fuck i fucked up badly
End resulthttps://files.catbox.moe/rtbkud.png>>987035https://files.catbox.moe/rtbkud.png
Your personality is way worse than your works will ever be if that makes you feel better. Fuck I would blow my head off I had to interact with a whiny self deprecating no self esteem piece of shit like you on a daily basis
>>987045she looks like she's afraid of you lmao
oh my fucking god the retarded schizo from /v/ went here too. More insufferable than our colombian retard
CAN I GET SOME FEEDBACK ON THE LIGHTING?TO ACTUALLY LEARN WHAT TO DO NOW?>>987045
I want feedbackhttps://youtu.be/oZ-lTp1ZaZQ
>>987068is this song a message to the haters?
>>986927>>986928>>986932Can you give feedback? >>>/trash/66678062
>>986928>>986927I can't do it. Its impossibleI dont get lighting at all
>>986709Unironically golden comment, thank you for this
>>987119just become an ai artist you aren't cut out for this life
I dont get lighting, been trying to at least understand how Nyl sets up things.How do I learn for real instead of just pose models?>>987160Why? But yes I dont get lighting, maybe my eyes are different from birth
I dont understand light, why am I even doing? I dont have natural talent for lightI tried this Even in drawings I do not understand light>>987119He tells you to light up an example render before seeing more of the videoI failed
>>987174You trying to do the frontal flash thing kinda look? Use a ring mesh light and parent it to the camera if you want to be fancy. Make sure the specular roughness on your characters eyes are low.You can also simply use a dim HDRI that you like to act as fill lighting since you're rendering in a black void
>>987182Thank you! Im rendering in a black void as I get too sad if I use backgrounds. This is fun, I want to learn for real but I dont know what to do or if I can even learn.A ring mesh light? An object with a light material? Right? Torus? Well, these fortnite models are too plastic and low detail really. Can you give me crit on light stuff? I am worried it might be something within me that doesnt allow me to get it>>987119>>987045
>>987119Going to give self crit hereI am mad and sad about how bad this ended up, I know it was just practice but the values, its both flat and simply unfocusedI didnt get anything right. I had no idea what to doIts just a pool of gray and black with no focus point
>>987184there's plenty of good art made with that model
>>987190Whats my problem really?>>987190The problem is me and my lack of talentI cant do itI dont have the natural eyeThats even worse than having no skill
>>987191you don't need a natural eye you can train itif you spent half the time you do schizo posting on improving instead you'd be way better
>>987195I dont have the natural eye, everyone can see that i am insecure because it means i wasnt born for thisHow can I train it anyways? I am 23 I am too old for anything
>>987195I just have low self esteemIf i were to improve and see that improvement with no setback I wouldnt get depressedIf I have one setback its vack to square onI couldnt even shade balls when i tried to draw
>>987195Light is something naturalA matter of tasteIf I cant fucking light right now, will i ever be able to do it?You cant teach tasteYou cant teach artistic senseSo that worries me
>>98719723 is nothing moron you can still learn you just need to stop crying every time you face a challenge and learn to overcome ityou have absolutely abysmal willpower but that's probably just some ipad raised zoomer trait so it may not even be your fault
>>987203But I have no natural eye for lightsSee>>987119>>986927In the video he said, before watching any moreLight the scene on your own and thats what I came up with
>>987204ok now watch the rest of the video and listen to what he saysthen you do it again with his techniques in mind and you learn from it...
>>987205I did watch the video and I tried againI still couldnt do it, I am not posting that attemptI couldnt do it, I couldnt focus the lights and make it look goodHis face still has no focal point, so thats why i am worriedIf I cant do it right now, why should i ever be able to? If the talent isnt there...
>>987206god you're such a defeatist weirdois this some kind of fetish for you or something
>>987207No, its not.But I have no self esteem and no confidenceI failed on the 2nd attempt after I watched the video, tried to set up lights like he was on what, a highway, it looked lame so I gave upI failed the 2nd attempt I should have been able to by that point, I saw his vid, so why not?Why did I fail with the raven pic?I couldnt do this pic >>986928He said it my lighting and composition are bad
>>987211just because he said you were bad doesn't mean you can't improve. you asked for feedback, that's the feedbacknobody said you had no potential but to achieve anything you need to put in the work and overcome the difficulties
>>987214I dont have a problem with feedback, I know I am badI have a problem woth the fact I could never do his pic or improve, I dont think i have talent
>>987216that's an example picture with 2 lights to show you fov changes i don't think it's meant to be a finished picture that you should try to emulate
>>986699Then do it. turnon global illumination, turn on depth of field, turn on all of the post effects. The secret to all this slick looking renders is that they cover the shit up with blurry lights and film grain. The less you see of the actual model the mor your brain fills in the gaps and goes>oh yeah this looks good. I like how it's so blurry and grainy I cant see shit
>>987223some of my fav renders are at extremely low samples and grainy as hell. gives them a vibe for sure
>>987217I still feel insecure about itWhat if I cant understand lighting?>>987223What? That image? I would have to get a better ome
Lighting is hard...But more than just light, I'll admit. Im stupidIve been trying to copy the scene of an actual pro. Not in quality but I want to understand the set up, the tools needed. Camera, lightsShit this is hardhttps://files.catbox.moe/5aoub3.pngPerspective lines I know I fucked up her waistIts the nyl2 widowmaker blowjob pov
I should stop doing this and try to get one finished sceneAm I even learning from this? I got fooled by the angle, I think I koght be closer to figuring out where the camera is and how to start thinking about what camera mm? https://files.catbox.moe/qqn5fm.pngThe camera fooled me, its not that high up? Maybe? Its just perspective
I should move into something else and more tutorialsI dont get it
This is a troll thread
>>987288Its not I am just incompetent but want to learn and be good
>>987223NO ANON DON'T GIVE AWAY THE SECRET SAUCE AAHH
i ( >>986928 ) have returned>>986939>>986940>>986942>>987045your upper body is in an awkward position which is why you can't get the neck right. you have correctly identified this here >>986942 where you've pointed out the angle of the neck is wrong relative to the upper body. all you need to do is angle the upper body more instead of having it be parallel with the ground. the spine (as a whole) should always be a nice S curve so if you deviate from that it's going to look unnaturalalso your hands are too far forward to comfortably support the weight of the upper body
>>987315also if you're insecure about my literally 3 minute jinx picture to show you fov differences you're gonna hate this 30 minute picture in which i make the picture you wanted to makethe point of the lighting in nyl's pictures/animations you're trying to copy is that it's an "amateur" feeling lighting used mostly in porn where there's a ring light attached to the top of the camera like this guy said >>987182usually there's a lot of grain or other visual imperfections which is the secret sauce to making something look photorealistic. >>987277 this is ok but i think your light is probably too close to the model instead of being where the camera lens is. also those fortnite models have pretty poor detail (like the game), and iirc the rig is janky and hard to use. try a rigid3d model instead
>>987316and allow me to let you in on another shocking revelation: if it looks good from the camera perspective it doesn't matter at all if it looks like a fucking mess in the viewportonce you reach a certain threshold of "correct" you can even have problems in plain sight and people will ignore them
>>987317and finally this is what you messed up with the neck. the spine is doing the majority of the bending and the neck is pretty much neutralit's an exaggerated pose (the ass is way too high) but it looks good in the camera and we're making porn so you're allowed to exaggerate thingsinstead of spending all your time doom posting about tfw no talent just try to activate your brain and realize you can't just copy a step by step procedure to make art you have to actually look at it and think about the components, what you're trying to achieve, what works and what doesn't
>bbc shill is fucking incompetentyeah, I expected nothing more from you
>>987316>>987315ITs impossible I cant do itIt takes me hours to do anything ahen you habe this in 30 minutesIm wasting life on thisI cant do itTell me why cant i do it? Is it normal i cant? This is impossible
>>987319>>987317>>987316>>987315It took you 30 minutes to do what ive tried hoursNatural talentI cant do it its impossible

>>987333i've been doing this for like 5 years it's not natural talent
I cant do it>>987335You have been doing it for 5 yearsHow long would it take me to reach your level? 10? Im not a natural at anything
Just like it happened with drawingI cant understand thisIm just wasting my time hereIve wasted hours and nothing to show for itThis fucker can do it in 30 minutes
>>987338i've been doing at least a little bit of blender pretty much every day so it really depends on how much you commit to it>>987339it looks like you had a mental breakdown in 2021 so you should probably get that fixed
>>987340I cant learn BlenderI would have shown promise if I couldCome onTell me, why cant I get it? I have a body i should be able to know and poseWhy cant I?

ffs stop responding and giving this mentally ill retard attention
>>987316Fuck youYou think your talent gives you the right to insult me
>>986928>no one is naturally good at things.patently not true. are you also not aware that most people are actually smarter than you despite your experience to the contrary?
>>987350>>987346OH MY.
>>987356>patently not truethat's cope. some people have natural affinities for things but they still have to work hard and master it, there aren't people who open blender for the first time and make something amazing>are you also not aware that most people are actually smarter than you despite your experience to the contrary?than me personally or are we generalizing? surely an average person would meet an equal number of people smarter and less smart than them>>987353i'm giving you legitimate feedback though i am obviously being a dickhead about it. you're ignoring all of it and saying you can never be good so why try to be good. that's retarded and the reason you can never learn anything
WHERES THE DREAMS THAT IVE BEEN AFTERPROMISED ONLY LIESMASTERMASTERYOU PROMISED ONLY LIESLAUGHTERLAUGHTERALL THERE ISLAUGHTERLAUGHTERLAUGHTERLAUGHING AT MY PRIDE
>>987362Fuck youI know I dont have talentYou know i dont have talentDo I even care anymore? I was never a contenderIn 30 minutes you did more and better work than me in 6 hours tinkering with lights The talent isnt there
>>987372why the self hate your work is amazing, just be practical, and make the best from it, see if there's something you can learn and improve and that's it
>>987373You should fucking die
People dont seem to understand ive wasted hours and this guy did that in 30 minutesThe natural talent isnt there, whats there to do
HOURS for every render I triedMost of it in posing aloneHOURS fucking wasged with pic relatedWhen that guy can do it in 30 minutesFar better, double the posingI can assure you he did not take as lo g when he was startingTherefore I know the trend, in the futurr it would take me 2 hours to get the same picWhy waste my time? I have to call it off
I looked up onlineNo one else takes this long to poseHOURS FOR the pics I postedMy brain might be unable to understand position, thats hopeless for an artistI give up>>987340>>987317>>987316Why are you better than me
>>987377>Insert random comment that would make anon go into another shizo rant for 20 more comments.
>>987378>Why are you better than mei've spent probably 8000-10000 hours using blender and making porn
>>987380BullshitYou have natural talentNot my fault really, my brain simply was born unable to understand 3D spaceSince its not my fault i am not bothered by thisIts a fact, facts never changeWhy cant I? Why do I take hours for poses that should take minutes? Tell me now
>>987382>Why do I take hours for poses that should take minutes? Tell me nowbecause you don't have 8-10k hours in blender and are still learning but you seem to think it's possible to magically skip that step and just be good
>>987383No, tell me, is it normal to take this long?I mean 5 hours on a pose that should be out in minutesI dont get it, my brain cant get it
>>987383The other anon is better back here>>986404He doesnt take hours to pose
>>987384i have spent literally days fiddling with tiny details, unhappy with how they look, before i get them looking okay enough for me to be satisfied with themin this picture >>987316 seraphine (the left one's) mouth looks weird, i adjusted it with the sculpting tools for like 5 minutes straight trying to get it to look better but it still looks weird
>>987387Sure but it looks goodI dont have talent,its impossible for me to do it
this nigga is hilarious, and really broke the 4chan meta, by bullying his own self so hard people are left with no bullying left to do on their part, 4chan truly is a magical place
Im just being honestEvery single person is better than meMy raven attempt was patheticI show zero promise, a blind man would draw/render better
as long as you're putting ladies next to yummy bbc i will consume and enjoy your content
>>987393I gave up againIll never be good
If the problem was not the posing but the skill, that could have promiseBut the problem is really the posingI cant understand itTherefore there is no possible improvement, noneCan a person with a missing leg ever become the best NBA player? I doubt itIts an existential block to improvement
What have I been doing thrse past few days?Watching vids on light, playing with light, never finishing a scene, never getting anything even decent Wasting hours unable to understand a pose?Plain obvious to me, the talent isnt thereI am this videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5d6I4yWykD8
If I failed at this, and drawing, and music, and paintingThe only choice that makes sense is suicideIm nothingExistence is overrated
Ive been awake for 5 hours 15 minutes and not once have I opened BlenderIts futile
Why cant I though? Hours for a pose thats not normal
Why cant I do it?They tell me that if I werr to spend the same time I spend crying practicing, Id be betterHow can they be sure? Im talentless and worthless I would not improveI havebt improved so far
https://youtu.be/uxs_HYw_mLkHavent opened Blender at all, or read anything about itDeleted all models and previous attemptsCalling this off as a failureI just dont have the talent
>>987400>>987405>>987412>>987424>>987425>>987444Dude, chill the fuck out. Go play some vidya and eat some snacks. Bask in the sun when you get the chance. It sounds like your problem is lack of self-discipline not lack of "talent".
>>987445It's impossible. I don't see a path in which I can ever learn. The talent just isnt there at all. I should end it. I cant learn anything, I wasnt born for anything.
>>987445My attempt at what this guy ended up doing here >>987316Was pic relatedHAHAHAHAHANo promise at allSuicide is noble to meIve failed at >drawing>music/bass>painting>tennis>baseball>writing erotic games>videogames>ERPAnd now 3DIm worthless
>>987447In a cosmic sense no one is born for anything. Nothing has "meaning", but that doesn't change anything. Maybe 3D isn't for you, that's for you to figure out. Putting yourself down like that isn't gonna help shit. I'm still not clear what the goal you failed to meet was.
>>987451I am not afraid of deathIf I fail to be good at anything I should just kill myselfI dont enjoy life, I dont enjoy anything but what, sleeping, music and coffee, anything other than that is bullshitI wanted to be good at 3D I just dont have talent same for drawing
>>987452What's the point of this? What kind of response are you expecting? Do you want us to convince you otherwise or push you over the edge?Reach out to people that care about you (even if you tell yourself they don't).
>>987453I dont give a fuck about any of you. You would all hate me anyways.>>987339/ic/ told me back then to give up without worry, I wouldnt be giving up on a future as a good or great artist. They were right, eventually I gave up for real. It was never going to happen.Now tell me, what's the diagnosis? Why cant I do 3D?
>>987454>Why cant I do 3D?Because you're a piss baby that can't handle minor setbacks.
>>987456Thats not the truth.Hours wasted on lights that dont workHours wasted on poses that are wrongCheck here>>986404We both started at the same timeHe shows promiseI show none
Failing at drawing only made me ask the why over and over for years, we are so close to that loop starting for 3D. Once the mental feedback loop is in place
So after being depressed all day and not getting any work done, I was checking some fashion magazines and well I picked 3 poses, easy medium and hardI tried to gesture draw and do what anon said, think about the bodyThe model was a stick so I should have used a Fortnite model quite cute too but i think i got the easy pose
>>987487>some fashion magazineswhich ones? That sounds like a good learning resource
>>987487Im a fucking moronHer hips were pointing downI know I have no talent so the shoulder is whateverThe medium pose I picked well ot was from a drawing and I realized it was impossible without really breaking her spine, the sharp inward leg angle should have clued me in
The hard pose came from the same model, I thought she was cute and this Tracer model has detailed feet so I got it from her wikifeet pageI wont post the original to avoid that anon mogging me againBut her spine was bent all the way and one side was smashed in while the other one relaxed and curving outwards, I didnt really get it at all>>987488Who are you? What were you doing with this thread open
Just checked the hard pose againI got her center of gravity wrong from the inverted viewShe was resting on the side that's squished if I think about her like a bagI got into the same pose and you feel your neck and middle of the back getting a massove stretch, might attempt againIt wasnt as dramatic, just the low camera mm(?) Making her look longer
Ok but how can I actually improve though?I wanna be a top tier animator
>>987445Wrong. He's been going at it for 7 YEARS. The talent is not there so is the inexistent discipline. It's over. And he NEEDS to understand so.
>>987490I lurk on /3/ and saw your post. The board is not very active as you might have noticed
>>987495why are there so few chuds who 3d? we need more, this board has a population of 20
>>987496The average 4chan chud has the technical and creative ability of a salamander. That's why
>>987494Ive been at this, refer to the chart>>987339I started drawing on 2020My 3D journey started 3 or 2 weeks ago, I didnt even know you could use your GPU to render lol>>987495Well dont take it the wrong way but youre likely better than me so if I help I help the competition....Just go on pinterest
>>987498>Just go on pinterestalright, thanks for the advice>Well dont take it the wrong way but youre likely better than me so if I help I help the competitionI'm mostly interested in making sculpts and game characters, I don't do poses or nice renders much. So I'm not your competition, we aren't in the same sub-field of 3d
>>987500If you open 3D software you are competition. Period.
>>987501oh btw, I remember you from /ic/.Hopefully you'll keep trying to improve in drawing, I think it's a very valuable skill for almost any kind of artist, even a 3d animator
>>987493don't even think about animation before you get the hang of everything else. animation is hard as fuck>>987487this looks good, much better than your other attempts. i really think your main problem was the fortnite models because their rigs are clunky>>987489again this is fine, the shoulder is easily fixed either with the bone or using the sculpting tools (which is often required because armature deformations are rarely perfect) so don't worry about it too much>youre likely better than me so if I help I help the competitionthis is a terrible mindset and even shittier when this thread is full of talented 3d people giving you advice and feedback.if i had to guess i'd say you only got into 3d thinking you could make easy money, which is why your earlier pics are all bbc porn. your reaction in this thread is typical of the kind of person who thinks "wow 3d is so easy, literally free money!" then comes to the realization you actually have to put effort in and practice to be good
Dude what are you doing these things for? Do you want to make money with it? Do you have some goal for something you want to produce?You cannot be passionate about the craft, you seem to thoroughly hate it. If you just want to goon with these, just quit. Do you have a real job?It is natural to want to be good at something, it gives us a sense of accomplishment, but you seem to have your affections and imagination very twisted.
>>987518he's going to be rich making fortnite bbc porn you are just a competitor to be squashed beneath his boot
>>987507No I dont got into it by wanting to make money,I am just deranged from childhood trauma and want to be the best at it,at things I try.Im not even into bbc really, that was to piss off people in the fortnite generalFine youre right about being an asshole, ill help out when i canI am just insecure >>987500Just get on tumblr, theres links for pdfs for archives thereIt really isnt a great resource because these things have a lot of useless text so just tumblr and modeling should be it i guessI was using an actual copy of 032c I have but the problem is that theres no scans of that online
I got into it because it caught my attention and I want to do NSFWI want to learn for realWhat do I do?
>>987560>chud thinks it can make quick bucks off bbc porn in 1 month
>>987560practice
>>987560Find a way to have talent in your next life, Whyie.
>>987563But what?
You've been shitting up every fucking 3D graphics thread on every fucking board now.Fucking stop
>>987572Chud.
on today's meltdown we discuss the sculpting tools in blender and how you should never feel like you're being bullied by the vertices as you are in fact their godweird deformations? lumps from bad weighting? joints twisted unpleasantly? not enough squish for your boner? sculpting is the answer
>>987576you can either make a shapekey (in the data section of the properties outliner) and sculpt using the mesh as is or __if you are finished posing__ you can add a multires modifier and sculpt using a subdivided mesh which lets you put in way more detail and lets you more easily fix bad looking parts of the meshyou have to be finished posing when using it however as it will make your mesh explode if you adjust the bones afterwardsthe basic sculpting brushes to use are the drag, grab and smooth brushes. with these you can fix most things. for finer detail you should use the draw sharp or crease brushes. to make things nice and squishy looking you can use inflate then smooth it. you are the boss of the vertices!
>>987577>>987576Wait shouldnt I know anatomy before this? I am a bit scared to do thisIll see if I can find a pose that would need sculpting
>>987596yes it would helpyou don't need a specific pose for it, just use it to help fix bad deformations from the rig posingprobably stick to using shapekeys instead of multires until you know what you're doing
>>987597Ok thanksWhat do you think would be good practice for today? I was told to stop doing porn for practiceI did want to practice fluids but that would be polishing a turd this early
>>987600fluids are retarded and slow and annoying don't even bother using those until you're way betterjust keep trying to recreate pinups and other pictures with poses you like or find something with interesting lighting and try to work out how they did it
>>987600also this guy makes beginner 3d porn tutorials i don't think he's that good and i've never watched the videos but other people seem to mention him a lot so you might find them useful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1IU5UHdyxE
>>987604Ive seen that vid beforeWhich is why i was worried about not getting lightingKnow something i really dont get, how to pick camera fov and angleThose fortnie models were bad quality nglShould i do the donut too? Or something?
I am the biggest coward the world and board has seenI didnt even attempt anything reallyI didnt even attempt sculptingIf I dont have the stomach to failIf I dont have the will to tryI simply dont have it in my blood
I am such a pecho frioI have no balls I cant find my balls or passion or courageI havent made a single full render yetIm too afraid of failure and not being readyI didnt even attempt to sculpTo be fair this pose is pretty much impossible for meI dont know if to continue
>>987685that is a very hard pose to do especially with 3d models because the mesh will stretch and bend badly
So what did I actually do today? Well add ons, watched videos on lighting and stuff. Not a whole lotTried to find models but couldntWhat else did I do?I failed at many poses and I failed at this sceneWe know I am not courageous or braveWe know I am not adventurousI dont have a risk seeker personalityI will not attempt something in which success is not certain
As you can see, I did fail at setting up a ring lightBut there are far bigger problemsMy idea was to use the circle to block the light path, I didnt find how to do this and a part of me tells me the circle is not solod therefore light would go through itSolidify did not work so I gave up defeated and sad
Then another bigger problemI did not know how to poseThe reference pic is just a regular POV of a blowjob, girl right at the centerI did not want to work more on it because>Should I pose ehat the camera wont even get to see?
Why none of you reply? HELP ME NOW
And then I also did not want to work more on it because i gave myself a 15 MINUTE LIMIT TO POSE THE BASICSAfter 15 minutes hands off the computerWHY? >>987316This anon took 30 minutes in a far superior and more dynamic pose So I thought, come on this is just 1 girl and 1 guy and far simpler and blanderIf i take 1 hour posing (given fingers who knows)If I were to take as long as I usually take as I am incompetent and cant pose for shit plus the second bigger problem for next post then I would crealy have absolutely NO talent or future in this>>987693Embarrassing
The third problemThe second bigger issue isI had no idea what angle to pic, I posed the guy firstAs I was thinking about poaing ashley I thoughtSHITwhat do I do now? I cant show the reference pic as someone else would do it better and faster btwSo I had no idea what to do, I added a camera positioned it in front of her but the mm and angle looks lameI had no idea what to do at allWhat pic to make? Sure I have a reference but any MM looks badIt looks horribleI thought of this picture and how I cant compare again>>987316
>>987691you are right, the circle primitive is just a ring of vertexes. select the circle, enter edit mode (tab), enter vertex selection mode if you're not already in it, select all vertices (a), fill the vertices (f)>Should I pose ehat the camera wont even get to see?you should still pose in the generally correct position but you don't need to bother making the feet look good or anything if they're out of the frame>>987694this is looking fine just keep working on it. avoid symmetry and make things not perfectly straight to improve realism. i.e. >SUBTLY< tilt one of the shoulders (the right one cuz her hand is above shoulder level), tilt the head to the left or right a little bit, same with the spine but again don't make it crazy or it'll look weird
>>987696>cuz her hand is above shoulder levelher elbow is above shoulder level*
If I am to make this and be good, which I myself doubtI really believe Im only wasting my timeI dont do anything else in my free time but browse the internet butbI still consider this a waste of time if I dont improveI haveBorderline Personality DisorderChronic clinical depression Post Stress Traumatic DisorderPsychosisHistrionic TendenciesNarcissismDelusional Thoughts (I actually believe I can be as good as the best when I am in my mania phase)>>987696Yeah her hands were done in seconds because I was running out of time due to camera anxiety thanks to my 15 minute limit, described here >>987694>>987316
>>987698you don't need to give yourself arbitrary timelimits
>>987696Btw I did fully render>>987684This ashley pic based on another model photoshootBut this model lacks shoulder rigging so I couldnt get the pose perfectly ANDI failed at lighting againNone of the pics Ive made so far have good lightingTo me thats a bad sign that improvement will never comeNone of my practiceThe only decent one is the tracer hip one and thats because its unlit and it has a white backgroundThe ashley pic looks horribleThe new tracer? HORRIBLENONE OF MY PICS HAVE GOOD LIGHT AT ALLIVE BEEN TRYING FOR 1 WEEK, IS THAT DIRE?>>987700BUt I do, he can do so much better than me in less timeI dont wanna spend hours on the ashley pic at least poaing or lighting
I am just worriedNothing has good lighting>>987696 I might have to start all overThis model doesnt have shoulders
>>987701the model probably has more bones on other bone layers. look here, you might need to go through them one by one (click the eye on, turn it off if it's not what you want or you'll be overwhelmed by bones)and to answer this>>987607>Should i do the donut too? Or something?yes you should. i hope you didn't just jump straight in to trying to make porn
>>987703forgot pic
>>987703Be honest with meWhat have been my flaws? I dont think I can do it I have no faith in me at allMy choldhood trauma is massive>>987704Yeah the bayo model I got had the same thing ill check again later
>>987705as i said earlier in the thread you should address your mental problems before worrying about creative hobbies
>>987693hello schizo anon, also hello teacher anon if ure still lurking here, can any of you tell me where to actually get nsfw models like these? i only found the basic overwatch rips which are pretty much useless, in exchange i might make some renders later on
>>987707smutbasemake an account or you might not see everything
>>987706No you dont get itI need to improve and be good at somethingOr else ill only end up ending itWhy cant I pick a camera angle or camera mm?What do you think about all the fully finished renders ive posted taking me hours to do? A bad sign?>>987707Competition...Ive bought models to avoid anyone competing...
>>987709>I need to improve and be good at somethingthen stop overthinking everything and giving up when you reach the hard parts>>987709>What do you think about all the fully finished renders ive posted taking me hours to do? A bad sign?the time is irrelevant. and most of your pics are at the stage where you've done the initial posing and now you want to add more detail and add the essence of boner to make it into porn people want to look at>>987709>Ive bought models to avoid anyone competing...you don't need paid models at this stage
>>987709>Competition..i'd hold ur hand while we make renders together, im not here to compete
>>987710Not that anon but how do you define the essence of boner? What details or qualities should one focus on or add?
>>987709>Why cant I pick a camera angle or camera mm?While in Object Mode select the camera you want to modify then adjust the settings in the Properties panel.
>>987729look here>>987576see that thigh squish? that is where the boner is stored
>>987731>Why cant I pick a camera angle or camera mm?>While in Object Mode select the camera you want to modify then adjust the settings in the Properties panel.NoI can, i just cant have the artistic senseWhat if he is better?>>987729>>987715You will probably be better roght at the start
This modelIts uselessIt doesnt even have shoulders I cant do it
>>987715You piece of shitYoull be making better works than me right at the startIts always like thisEveryone else is simply betterAs I am the one with nothing
>>987741there is no chance it doesn't have shoulderssome rigs have retarded shoulder positions, look on the chest near the sternum there's probably two long horizontal bones there
>>987743What if he is better than me? AnswerTell meWhy do I show no potentialEveryone else would have finished something by nowEven life and models make fun of meThis does not have shoulders
If he is better than meWhat if he gets it all rightEverythimg better than me forst tryEveryone but me can
>>987745you can always anhero
>>987738>What if he is better?Judging by the catbox links from early in the thread I already am and better than the dude you're so jealous of. So what? Why worry about it? I used to suck but now people praise my work. I doubt we'd be in direct "competition" anyway because I focus on furries.Here's my advice: work on your mental health and self esteem, learn basic visual composition (e.g. the rule of thirds), and learn three point lighting (key, fill, rim). It's good you wanna git gud at something but fretting about it hamstrings your ability to git gud.
>>987750>>987746Fuck offYou never suckedIts only me the one who sucks
LEARN? LEARN? LEARN COMPOSITION? LEARN LIGHTING?IMPOSSIBLEI CANT DO IT
Its impossibleI cant do itI cant do it but everyone else canThe model doesnt even have shouldersThis only happens to me
Everyone else can get it naturally Everyone else doesnt need to study lighting or compositionEveryone else just canAnd would have done betterIve only wasted time
>>987753it's impossible, you can't do it, you have no skill, you're retarded, wasting your time, you suck so badly, suicide is the only option left
>>987756Why cant i do itI knew you were waiting for this chance ever since this post >>987316
>>987757that (>>987756) isn't me retardalso pic related is the shoulder bone i think, ARP rigs or whatever that is have them in a terrible spot
Its not going to happenI should have made something by nowI dont even get lighting atillPic rrlated
>>987758Its not that, check that model
>>987760which model is it? mokujin's?
>>987758Thats the breast rig
>>987761YesWhich means youll probably make a better ashley bj pic so im deleting theProjectNothing personal i am too insecureAnswer this please >>987738>>987744I dont have any idea on how to make a scene by picking angle and mm to make a good pic
>>987764who cares if he's better? there are loads of people better than me but i don't cry about it. i don't understand your motivations for learning this or drawing or any of the other things you mentioned
>>987765I dont have promise nowHow can I even pretend ill have it laterIf others are better than me right nowThey will always be betterBe honest, why do I show no promise?Not a single oic has good lightingNot a single pic has good compositionI couldnt even do this >>986928
>>986928I feel hopelessEven this 3 min pic blows everything ive wasted hours onIt looks good even nowYou picked a good angle and a good camera mmAll my pics look so shitty and amateur even the attemptsI just dont know how toI dont have a good eye
>>986401no, but srsly, you're severely mentally ill, get that sorted up
the shoulders are right here on the main rig layer
>>987769ImpossibleI did not seeWhy are you better than meDo you get off on mogging meI have deleted this model and wont be working with it
Why am I talentless why cant i do it>>987769Youre even going to make a blowjob pic....You hate me dont youYou havent asnweredWhy cant i pick what pic to makeI canr choose an angle or a camera mm that looks good
>>987771it's just a fucking bone open your eyes>>987772i don't like ashley so no, she is pink because i didn't download the textures only the model
>>987773I couldnt see the boneIm too depressedIm positive its not there for meTell me why cant I get a good angle and camera mm for a picWhy am i bad at this?
>>987774>I couldnt see the bonedid you hide it? go into pose mode and press alt+h to unhideand you are bad because you instantly give up when something is hard. like >>987768 said (and i have said over and over) you need to get your mental health issues fixed
>>987775Not hiddenThere are two models
/3/ is mentally ill, glad i can never see the face of any faggot here
greetings from /v/, he's been crying in an overwatch thread, this guy's hilarious.
>>987560The problem is that you are thinking that you are doing a lot, but you are posting so fucking much that is hard to believe that.From all of the comments you've been posting, for years perhaps, you are looking for a answer to justify your failures and at the same time you are ready to deny any help and keep whining. >>987693>>987695Dont start the pose if you dont know the angle, you are getting a lot of just useless data in your head without a goal. You are making everything impossible for yourself.>>987755stop complaining dude, it doesnt help. It has never helped.You are the problem and not in a way you are aware of it. You enslaved yourself to a dumb mindset that gives you some explanation for shit, you need to break the comfort you have in your self deprecation. This is all false, not that you are ill or anything, you likely are, but thinking about this in these terms is just making you dumber.
>>987792Well what should I do then? Ive seen so many vids about lighting (8) and for one week I havent been able to get a decent lighting on a picIs this normal? Be honest. Pleaae im crying
>>987793you need a clear goal. What is this image that you are making supposed to make the audience feel? It is confusing. It feels like she is threatened, her face and general posture suggests that, but she at the same time is posing 'confortably' like that. Think out loud. "What am I doing?" "How do I get where I want to be?"It is easier for you to start over with something less 'anatomy demanding'. Try some normal scene.Try this:Pose a character sat in some sofa, looking outside and holding a mug.The picture is bright, light coming from the window, the character is comfortable and relaxed. Think of cozy, comfort. And dont fucking get back to posting or reading any board until you have an image that reads this.If you can't nail something as simple as this, you wont be able to do some studio lightning with anatomy deformation and contact with other bodies.
>>987794There was supposed the a monster behind, I got too depressed about the lighting to continue
holy fuck, this thread is a legit fever dreammight as well be written by a bot
>>987794I dont know how to thinkI dont know what to doIll try that one laterAny time limit for decent progress? How do I make maps anyways?
>>987794But what happens if I fail at that too? What if I cant pose them right or light it right or do it? Does that mean I'd be hopeless.What if I cant do it?
>>987799What do you do for a living? How do you afford to cry about this for hours and days on end?
>>987806I browse the internet I guess
>>987794But what happens if I fail? What would it mean?
Ok well so what if i fail though
when I get something wrong in blender I always remind myself that I'll never be a whiney cunt like the schizo in this thread and I continue moving on
>>987812>>987827I don't know what kind of answer you're looking for, guy. It's not like you're going to get evicted for it.
>>987832But it would mean I am not built for this, confirm this having no futureI overthink as a result of my insecurities and trauma, my mother would basically torture me and then deny this later onI cant do it, I camt even build a map for this
Man op you prolly ain't learning shit from your failures but I sure am so keep failing for my benefit. Thank you.
>>987836What do you mean by that?
>>987833>my mother would basically torture meHow and why?
I failedIt was impossibleI coulsdt build a levelThe sun light...it looked trash
ROSE....COLONEL....I CANT DO ITI NEVER SAW BLENDER IN MY VR TRAINING....I CANT DO IT
I am an L reminder of what its like to be Fanum Taxed
>>987847sunlight is the hardest kind of light to do btw
SNke have you ever rizzed up a gyatt
I couldnt do this btw>Try this:>Pose a character sat in some sofa, looking outside and holding a mug.>The picture is bright, light coming from the window, the character is comfortable and relaxed. Think of cozy, comfort. And dont fucking get back to posting or reading any board until you have an image that reads this.>>If you can't nail something as simple as this, you wont be able to do some studio lightning with anatomy deformation and contact with other bodies.
Given others >>987836Are learning from my thread while I have no talent (learning is impossible) I am now halting all logical thought
Given all future progress is impossibe at failing due to specific reasonsNo future exists in which I can be great at 3DAs of this moment, killing any possible future im which I can be good at 3D
Has to be saidIt was her that made this wayAIRHEAD
AND PRETEND AND DEFEND AND DEMAND MY COMPLIANCE
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FORYOU GOT WHAT YOU ASKED FORAM I LESS THAN
>>987860>>987853>>987852>>987855why is it when you're having a meltdown you make more progress learning blender than at other times
>>987794Fuck you
>>987863>>987862if you hold D in blender you can draw an annotation in 3d space directly into the scene, it's based on where your camera is pointed at the timeto remove or add more you can open the View panel -> Annotations in the n-panel (on the right of the 3d viewport, press n if you can't see it)
Anon you may be onto something here
Why did I fail?I couldnt do the challenge
>>987871>>987868>>987863>>987862>>987860>>987859this frightens me no meme
Depressed anon herePose is nowhere near done need to sculpt and add shoes but some lighting experiments after more readinghttps://files.catbox.moe/c308t5.pngAlso I love ashleyYes another copy from real life but the real one uses Sun light so fuck thatI hate sun light
So which one looks better? I think I already know but why? https://files.catbox.moe/ebhgia.jpgYou could argue this was the only worthwile practice I did today...How do I speed upEverything takes longer for me
>>987827>>987798You failed because before even starting this shit you went back to posting in this board, you are wasting your time, getting distracted and dwelling in your own misery. You'll never achieve anything like this, you are looking for external approval in a demanding and embarrassing way. >>987883This is honestly better, keep doing simpler things like things without coming back to bother random people on the internet. >>987883All of these suggest different things, when you think of an image that is better or worse, you gotta think what for they are worse.A good cup cant have holes, but a good strainer needs to. You can control the sun angle to hit the character inside, you can try that with the nikita sky thing in the 'world' section, or perhaps use some hdri for it.
>>987883this is good and a vast improvement over your other stuff. center of weight looks fairly correct and you've obviously recreated the pose from your reference nicely. obviously you'd want to sculpt the knees but that's not your fault, it's a common problem with 3d model kneesas the other anon said if you need sunlight you're better off using an outdoor hdri because recreating all the bounce and diffuse light that the outdoors has is quite hardpolyhaven.com/hdris
>>987868why does this speak to me?
either this is genuine mental illness or a really good troll
>>987887Well how do I actually improve though?I did not understand the lighting, I just tried to get close to the reference pic.I couldn't do the couch thing because the room looked lame. I need to improve for real.I need to be faster too.The pose was quick but the lighting experiments took more time as I had to watch vids and read.>>987888Thanks, what else can I do? I want to improve for real.I must reach the level of lighting and posing in 30 minutes>>987316
>>987901>Well how do I actually improve though?Through practice, buddy. It takes time and effort to become better and faster. Being critical of your work by analyzing what works and what doesn't, and more importantly why it does or doesn't, can guide you along the path to improvement.>>987857>>987858Also don't listen to depressing or otherwise negative music when you're upset like this. That song's a banger but clearly not helping right now.
>>987902But how? I couldnt do the couch pic due to the sun light and making a room from scratch, if I had a proper map i couls have tried properlyWhat else to practice?
why is it that artists who upload models make their UI completely garbage? i cant even find the material preview button, yet alone the cloth options, so congrats schizo anon, ure far more ahead of me
So the model cant be sculpted at all this is bullshit
I click something and it goes haywireAlso this model has a Menu and script but i cant get it to stay when I appendI didnt really practice todayHopefully I can get one renderI dont know where to find scenes and how to use themWhats why i did kot make the couch pic
>>987959the back disappearing is probably just a mask modifier with the edit mode option enabled. if it's actually breaking when you sculpt it probably has a smooth corrective modifier which definitely needs to be off for sculpting or it'll fight against you and explode the mesh in the processalso to sculpt the legs i would probably go into edit mode of the body, select the lower legs and maybe a bit of the knee then in sculpt mode at the menu at the top do Face Sets -> Face set from edit mode selectionthen you can click the automasking thing at the top (see bottom of pic) and set to face set mode to make it easier to affect only one part of the legs at a time
>>987970I have no idea what that is or how to do itSo working on any render anon?
>>987970One click and the model explodesI clicked her legs to grab and her chest did that
>>987182>>987316>>987317Not the anon you were talking to, just a passerby, but thanks so much for the info! I'm also just getting started out, and lighting has been a point of contention I'm currently wrestling with, so these help a lot!>>987576>>987577Thaanks too, anon! Currently I've only tried sculpting very simple things (i.e. bed/couches/pillows) that my characters are laying on, but this is something I've got to start working on, too. Forceball made a comparison images showing the difference when you shapekey sculpt, and multirez sculpt for crazy poses, and I'm excited to get to that point someday, but I'm also kind of a brainlet, so it's really slow going! That said, thanks for the tips and tricks, this sounds really useful!
>>987998Post your work
>>988005Your first, chud.
I did not practice today. I am sorry.My motivation levels have dropped drasticallyA part of me wonders, the part of me that wants to be good wqnta to keep going. I either daydream or get distracted online or feel worried about all the things to learn, all that I dont knowI just saved pics and thought about the way theyre lit but thats nothingI work based on external motivation maybe
Feel guilty over no practiceWhat to do? I got scared by the model failing on sculpting
>>988066set your modifiers to this and it wont explodethe exploding is from the double armature which some people use to help fix bad joint deformations. the corrective smooth will also mess it up so make sure that's off too
>>988072with the ashley body object selected
>>988072Mental illness
>coomer begs for advice>retards actually waste hours with him>he doesn't learn anythingLet this be lesson
So i tried the tracer bodyAs I said, no new work or practice yesterdayMotivation has dropped drasticallyI have no idea how to do this properly, I couldnt feel any proper showing as I tried to fix this easy part
This is too hard I am mot surr I can learn thisThe other anon made Akali look grrat with his fix but I cant do that
Just ended up smoothing it and called itNow Ashley will be harder so I might just abandon that one and go to a different oneThe pose its too hard to fixI feel bad because I cant do this, fix like this >>987576>>987577Is it normal i cant?I dont know anatomy?
Should I feel bad I cant do it?I have to change most of her leg downwards to get the ref picBut thanks >>988072How did you even find out about this?ThanksTell me be honestShould I continue? Could I have potential?
Do i show even a hint of promise? What do i do now? I want to improve but i am lostI need directions and instructionsI want to be goodMy motivation levels are rising too slowlyThere is a massive amount of anxiety and worry over others being better faster pulling the numbers downThe doubt over how to fix like>>987576>>987577Is dragging numbers down
>>987576me in the back
What kind of rigs you working with? Got constraints that make sense? IK - FK switch? You obviously didn't make the models yourself. Where did you get them?
>>988100>How did you even find out about this?i told you i have 8-10k hours in blender. i have intuitive knowledge you don't about what is wrong and how to fix it, as well as how to use the tools available because i've used them before where you're merely starting outthis is why losing your mind about talent is pointless and irrelevant, you need to practice to be good at something
>>988169I havent been practicing as muchThibking about the sheer amount of practice
well, posing the mouth sucks ass, also my first render i know the lightning is horrible i tried to make the ring light suggested above, but didnt show up on her eyes so stayed with hdri
>>988256posing is good, lighting is fine, you've used it to create some interesting shadows to highlight her form which is goodyou have improved
>>988288That's not meI am trying to figure out how to completely denoise pics
>>988256Youre a piece of shitGet the hint This thread is for me to postGo fuck yourself
>>988290oh no, meltdown soon>>988256nice first render anon good job
>>988292How come no one told me i made a good job before
>>988292damn i didnt really expect positive feedback, thanks
I should post the dahmer gore pics to get rid of these people>>988294Dude go fuck yourselfThis is my thread
please keep up the learning anonsthe fun with 3D pin ups is just solving problems, each render is a puzzle you gotta solve. If you're not solving you're not learning
>>988296Answer>>988293
>>988293You have a personality that is prone to emotional outburst which will make people apprehensive to give you any feedback.If you're into art for being popular/liked then you can just give up now, you have a better chance of winning the lottery than getting BIG.Just be in it for the learning or the money.Or get a weird fetish that means you need to PERFECT your craft idk
One thingWhere do I find props for my scenesI want to make scenes with mpre things but i cant find any>>988299I lacked proper emotional attention as s child, I lacked affection in a normal wayI need it now...Thats the reason for the way I wrote hereJealousy
>>988300open3dlab, sketchfab, DA, p3dm.ru>>988256yo, here's a quick tip for making easy rim lighting anon>take area light>make rectangular/oval>set bounces from 1024 to 0>set spread to 5' or something>put 3D cursor on object and use it as pivot point>double tap R to get free rotation and rotate, rotate area light around subject
>>988300Ah yeah, you're in pain. You won't fix it with affection. Find out the root cause and pull it out of your life.Figure out why you're hurting man
>>988301>>988303Helping him? Think hes better than me?Why did I get no compliments?
>>988304You have paranoia. Please seek mental help.
>>988305No I am jealousThat you think he has more potential than me
>>988301cool tipi usually damped track constraint it to an empty or a bone on the character but this works very nicely as well
