Calling ZombieNixon!
Are you still working with 3D? Here's my latest (and first - and last!) 3D model I made in Hexagon and then rendered in Carrara:

2. Thank you!
Took me two weeks to make the model; an actual loudspeaker, but I just had the dimensions to work with. But I wanted to complete it. ;)

3. ...
I'm sure ZN's still working in 3D. Two weeks huh? I have the attention span of a gnat. No way could I spend two weeks on a project like that.

ZN should see this shortly, I hope.

4. I was ready to give up many times,
but then, I promised to try it for a friend (who's the manufacturer of this loudspeaker.) I've never did modeling myself before.

11. Thank you!
I never modeled anything before in 3D, so I guess it didn't came out too bad for a total newbie. :)

8. Yes, I am.
And...that's really damn good. :wow: :toast:

I've started putting some of my stuff online in my portfolio (OK, so there's two models on the site as filler graphics right now; I need to organize the rest of it).

12. Thanks!
The fun stuff (no, honestly, the awkward stuff was) to learn more as I went. So I ended up doing it from scratch numerous times. So I was like:



Unfortunately, I used Carrara a bit a few years ago but am not very familiar with it. And the rendering/posing software I use (Poser, DAZ Studio) automatically smooth the polygons, so flat surfaces end up rounded like balloons ... :( Only Carrara did read them right.

If you don't mind, send me a link to your portfolio via PM. I'd like to see it. :hi:
