but i have a problem: i tried make subd paintable, maya does not complain, but it wont let me paint paintfx on the surface user added image

with polys it complains, with nurbs no complain, but the nurbs work, subd does not user added image

SUBD

SubD's are always a problem to texture.....and PFX and Poly the same...I mostly model with nurbs ('cause my computers are too slow to work liquid with Subdivision Surfaces).....

Therefore you have to search for Workarounds...

Very Interesting!
I'd like to see more of this model. I like the overall design, in some way it is appealing to my senses.

It's like a bug/elephant.

**** I decided to withdraw from this competition because I don't think I'll make the deadline according to the guidlines. Go here to see what it was that I almost entered. *****

Hello, All

Jesus: Great entry, It shows a certain bulkyness I certainly like a lot. Keep on it. user added image

dave_baer: Excellent entry, I believe this one alongside Bulletproof´s one are going to be certainly dificult to beat up for you guys competing on the normal category. However, I remember some guys used to say "It ain´t over till it is over" so keep on it guys. Don´t despair. user added image

About your entry dave since it´s your own work I believe it´s a valid entry, although I´m expecting it to be developed, so keep on it. Don´t leave it a show and tell. user added image

By the way: I liked a lot that model you made about that Doug Chiang design, the little mech. It was yours right? Excellent looking, did you finally rig the hidraulics?

-all entries updated-

**EDIT**: Sadly Mr. dave Baer isn´t going to participate in the competition, however I do recommend (and that´s a must) paying a visit to his excellent WIP project since it actually serves as a great resource. Look at the way he uses hidraulics and stuff, and you´ll get the whole idea behind this month´s competition.
His Project can be seen HERE
