Hi Xiviiii. :bee:

Geist, I can definitely help with Maya stuff if you have any questions. The interface is really confusing at first though LOL, I know exactly how you feel.

Learning keyboard shortcuts helps alot, and also figuring out different methods of accomplishing the same task and just experimenting. Just like Photoshop.

If joeadok still cared about us visited this place I'm sure he'd be a big help as well, his 3D modeling's always gooood.

Yeah shortcuts are what I'm putting a lot of time into learning atm.
I have to do grouping and stuff right now, and basic animation on the wheels and axles of my car.

I actually can't remember how to rename groups though ._.
Lucky for me, I have a good friend who's been working with 3d for a few years now, and lucky for him I'm able to help him with pretty much everything else ;D

I actually don't use too many shortcuts in photoshop yet, at least not to the degree of some people who don't touch their mouse at all.

Still working on the whale :V!

I don't have a lot of time to draw, I don't have a lot of free time anymore due to school and stuff, and drawing often gets a second place AKA 10 mins a day or on the weekends.

Adobe Encore. It's used to create/design DVDs (like the menus and stuff you see when you play a DVD movie). I thiiink I may have found the solution to my problem, let's cross our fingers.

I think Encore is one of those programs I saw and couldn't figure out what it was for.

Im debating making myself a new DA account.
Pros: Fresh start, breaking away from past work and starting anew
cons: ive spent 4 and a half years on that account...it's hard to just stop using that as a main account (i'd still keep it...just minimal journal updates and no new deviations)

Only if you really think that's necessary.

Sometimes I would just go through and remove stuff I thought was bad/ugly/too old. So you don't really have to make a new account to break away from past work.

However I also think it's important to look at old work every once in a while, and see how far you've progressed.

I'd keep it, personally. Unless you like really want a different name or something lul.

I might start one once I've done more school projects. We have a few cool things we're doing now that I'll be able to add to my portfolio :D
atm I barely have any variety, not enough to start a DA imo

I actually considered changing DA accounts before. Then I got inactive so there was no point.

@Geist: Lots of artists on DA pretty much do only one sort of thing. If you're good and you make yourself known you will get attention. :D

Hello? *echoes*
._.


btw bbcs2 is coming to the 3DS if you didn't already know. And so is SSF4
Maybe the 3DS won't suck after all.

Maaan, I wanted a 3DS the day it came out, but... the launch title lineup was not that impressive. :glare: I think I'll wait a while for more games to come out before getting it... I think the new Animal Crossing will be out in like June.

It's kinda close to Pokemon B&W's release anyway, so I'll probably still be occupied with that for a while lol. Blazblue 3D sounds amaaaazing though.

Yeah I was so relieved after hearing CS2 was a patch instead of a completely new game ( for the 360 and PS3 that is.) :V
Apparently Platinum is coming free with the patch, but I haven't seen confirmation of that...
lol loli

I think I must be the only one that doesn't play Blazblue lol. I suck at fighting games ._.

Probably gonna wait a while to get the 3DS. Maybe I'll ask for it for my birthday :3

SHE BETTER BE FREE. THAT'D MAKE MY LIFE.
I still need to buy Valky and the new announcers.
Muh friend Denzi bought Jin as an announcer...Sexy.
I can't wait for the patch...new OP is gonna rock.
The new announcer though...Uhm...let's just say Dale Sanchez sounds very pleasant compared to this new lady...

I played Valkenhayn and Makoto a few times. They're both completely broken lmaoooo
They're both getting fixed though. I'm actually looking forward to a higher tiered Tsubaki. Should be interesting to see. That, and Litchi and Bang are both super nerfed ;D

I heard rumors of a more broken Valk and Makoto, though O__o
Hopefully that's not the case...especially since Valky is stupid.
Bang had it coming. He's not supposed to be good!!!! xD
He kinda reminds me of Capt. Falcon (well, Brawl Falcon). He's not super good, but everyone loves him.

Just not wtflolbroken

Plus she's probably Lambda's worst matchup Q_Q

No right now the game is looking super balanced. The japanese players who have already played through the game are speculating that there is no need for anything below 'B tier'
Apparently atm it looks like all the NOL characters save Tsubaki are S tier. Valky, Bang and Litchi are being nerfed to B tier.
Which is still completely viable.
I also don't know if anyone plays BB competitively and/or cares about the tier list ._.

A friend of mine and I described the new announcer:

Yink: So did you hear that new announcer in BlazBlue?
MetaMarfio: Yeah she sounds awful. She says JIIIIN KISALAAGI. Why the L noise?
Yink: She emphasizes Hazama wrong too haha. Hazaaaaaaama.
MetaMarfio: Jeez, how do you advertise for an announcer job? Do you just put up a sign and go "sign up here" ?
Yink: Nah, they'd just get 4Kids all over the place, we don't want that now do we?

In all seriousness the new announcer pretty much sucks. :glare:

Arksys announcers have always been terrible.

Why can't they just get you know, an announcer capable of speaking english?

Why did you post that? Now I'm going to be looking through the rest of these sound test videos for like 20 minutes.

...Normally I try to be cool when it comes to accents, but when he said "Taokaka" I just started laughing.

They need to find a legit announcer...not some crazy guy that sounds like a chick or some monotone chick that ruins matches with her boring voice :<

I stopped playing online because I can't hear myself think over the constant shouts of "COUNTA - COUNTA - COUNTA - FAYTOW - COUNTA"
Seriously, does everyone online just mash? :l
