In this series of step by step tutorials we learn how to model a sci-fi weapon using hard surface modeling techniques. To begin, we will learn the importance of creating silhouettes and how to take constructive criticism in order to make it a stronger design. After that, we’ll begin blocking out the basic shapes of our weapon. Once the block out model is finished, we’ll use a simple render to create a paint over in Photoshop to get a better idea of the details we want out of our high poly model. Then we’ll jump into modeling the high resolution model and the game resolution model. Then we’ll wrap up the course by laying out the UV’s, baking our normal and ambient occlusion maps and applying those maps back to the game model.

We all know that cgpeers is buggy from time to time, but I won’t complain; it’s a huge knowledge database that’s free for the nice people we are ;)
CGPeers is having massive server issues. Basically, their hardware can’t keep up with all of the traffic. They’re working on it, so just be patient. :-)
Guys, do you all buy premium accs for these sites? Cause I just cant get a single cookie to work with rapidgator! Any tips?
Cheers for the great upload ! Im new here. it really did help me with my project set modelling , coming from a university which learn 3d deep- end- style and of course, money is tight to register for a year course of digital tutors .
May i ask a kind favour if anyone has these around , im only lacking these 3 for a complete set of “Exploring Animation Principles in Maya 2011” and would gladly swab the other principles with friendly users over here.

We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that by some Antivirus companies.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link or the file MD5 Hash (higher than 30% overall positive result).
