A request
 
Hi, I was wondering where i'd be able to find a prebuilt human model. I was going to make one for a project we are doing but just haven't had time. Now before anyone tries to tell me that i should be doing my own work for this project, it's a website that we are doing for a (pretend) client & we are allowed to either find or create our own assets for the project.

A normal human model would be good, but a kinda of cartoonish one would be a little better as there is a bit of humour on the site. Also, it would need to be a male without genitals ... story behind that is that this fella was created not born.

So if anyone could point me in the right direction or if they have a model i could use i'd really appreciate it.

if youre looking for free models then probably the best place to look would be 3dcafe.com, though I guess the quality isnt going to be too great. Also A|W's website might be worth checking out. If you dont mind paying then try turbosquid.com - theyve got thousands of models to download but you usually have to pay for anything half decent (see the pattern forming here :D ). lastly you could buy Poser - the app gets slated alot by "l33t" 3dpeople but it has its uses..
good luck

I can't remember if it was the Viewpoint models, but at their site they offer free models, one is a cartoonish guy named Al.

You might also want to check at 3d Total. Not sure if they are 'complete with parts' there or not though. :D

if youre a VIP member on this site, michael has posted a video on how he attached an arm to a body, it also comes with a scene file which contains half of his super hero character :) another reason to register

However, please note that that model is for instructional purposes only and it is prohibited to be used as work for anyone else's "portfolio" or other such projects!!

Nem 10-09-2002 06:47 PM

This might help...
 
Not sure if there are genitals, but at zoorender.com, they have a model called "Adam" you can download.

Not sure on the copyright, so you might wanna check that!

I used it a day ago for trying out Mt. Mkinley's <-sp? arm stitching tut.

BTW, what a KICK ASS tut man!!!!
It explains all!

Thanks, and I hope that helps.
remember to check about copyright!!!

mtmckinley 15-09-2002 04:25 AM

BTW, it's nice to meet you. I don't think I've corresponded with you yet. If you're ever on ICQ, Yahoo, or AIM... feel free to give a yell. :D Info in sig...

LOL.. yeah kinda scary hey :) but mikes such a nice guy... has a lot of time for all!

mtmckinley 15-09-2002 04:00 PM

Y'know, I wish I had as good a reputation in real life as I seem to have built up online. lol

Maybe then I wouldn't have such a hard time finding a job. Hey, Rage! Let 'em know at your new job that you know of another they could hire on! lol j/k. :p


--

no, I'm not! Tell them! lol :D

ragecgi 15-09-2002 06:52 PM

I can't promise anything at all, but shoot me your res.... actually, I'll just give my boss your site adress.

PLEASE do not get excited, he's a SEVERE scrooge, he almost didn't hire ME on.. and when he did, he's only paying me at 10K LESS that what I was asking.

You know, theres a 3D Maya character shop here in town called Ghost Productions, http://www.ghostproductions.com , and they are ALWAYS asking my friends for reels, but they never seem to get hired.
Just thought I'd pass along another link for ya.
Don'y hate me if it doesn't pan out:)

Also, try these:
http://www.webmovie.com/Post_Production--Midwest_USA/
http://www.crash-sues.com/
http://www.eidosinteractive.com/corporate/jobs.html

Just thought I'd give you some links:)

Hope they help.

If they don't lemme know, I've got more.

Can't friggin believe nobody will hire you!
WTF!!!

raul 15-09-2002 07:22 PM

yeah good old rat lover is the best. jk just busting you chops mike. dig that avatar.

mtmckinley 15-09-2002 09:09 PM

Hey, thanks, Rage... that's actually a LOT more than I ever expected you to do. I didn't really expect you do anything. lol
I'll be sure to give those links a try. And why would I be mad at you?? It's not as if you are in control of how these people hire! lol

Again, thanks a lot. :)

ragecgi 16-09-2002 01:41 AM
