HCR MINI-Challenge #23: Ansel Adams Tribute: FAQ


#21

Hi,
i use vue 8 xstream.
If you’ve seen the demo videos or you use/have used it, is there a drastic differance between vue 8’s “sculpt terrain” and ZBrush’s “Sculpt Brush’s”?

I use both and to me it seems that Sculpting geometry in zbrush is almost the same as sculpting terrain in vue 8.
Where would that fit in in the allowed/not allowed decision?

Thanks

IN ADDITION:
i see that the challenge is due on the 15th of this month.
Is it possible to enter now even though it’s half over?
If the CG Challenge doesnt start soon i wanted to enter this one.

Thank in advance and Happy New Year!

why not model a realistic landscape using 3d modeling application of your choice?
Modo, Cinema 4D, 3d max, Maya etc.

Vue is a landscape generator app not a modeler and I think this is
still a modeling challenge?

My 2 cents:

Model what you want with what you want. Software is striving to make the creation process easier on artists, so they can focus on creativity and leave technicality alone. At the same time that artists praise these fantastic new technologies, they argue against those who use them, calling the methods “cheap”.

beautiful art will be beautiful, crap art will be crap. Software and methods is irrelevant.

-sculpt and model away, everyone, but more than anything - have fun while you do it.

Roberto, in the General rules it says, “For each model 3 Orthographic renders ARE REQUIRED. These renders are for TOP, SIDE, BOTTOM views and a BEAUTY RENDER.BEAUTY RENDER:”
Do you really want a bottom render?

Usually it is Top, Side and Front not Bottom.
I can do both but the Bottom and Top will look very similar.
