Hey Mike! Can I make a request?
How would one make foggy windows? (for example in a snowy scene)
Thanks for the awesome videos,
David
Thank you, very helpful. Just what I need!
I was wondering if you could please, make a tutorial how to import or create ragdool or any character for storyboarding purpose would be so helpful. thx again good sir.
Your tutorials are the best on youtube sir
could this light set up work for mental ray as well
Spotlights dont cast fog in Maya 2017/Arnold DX its driving me crazy trying to figure it out
Is this only applicable in Maya software? Can it be done in mental ray?
Is there a way to fix the bleeding of light on the edges of rooms when using an exterior light? (Your final render for an example, the far wall has light coming through the floor/wall edge).
OMMGG great video I rlly needed that !! TY
I really love your videos sir. Thanks for uploading them.
Thank u for your lesson but i want difference between sunlight and skylight as well as bounces( reflections) please
Many thanks for the very useful tutorials that you have done. I am trying to figure out how to export models/props from Maya. Is there a way how this is done. watching some other videos, I don’t get what I expect. cheers
Can this be done in vray? what would you need to do
there in no shadow.
How would I apply what’s in this tutorial but with a plane with a window textured on it? Is there a way for me to get the beam to come through the ‘window’ plane??? I tried turning down the transparency but obviously that failed…
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Another helpful tutorial from a kindly person 🙂 Thank you Mike!
Once again, a very nice and clear tuto. Perfect !
Great video as usual Mike, but may I ask you something? The sound tends to be a bit low sometimes. Would you mind increasing it a bit next time you record? Thanks.
Very helpful tutorial
But may I request something?
Can you show us how to texture an animal and make it look like it has real fur?
(for example a fox?)
u should crank up the sound a bit… btw great video
Nice! got a couple tips out of this. Also if i may request a full character modeling tutorial? I’ve noticed you haven’t done any at all. Obviously it would be a long video but perhaps you could do it in series. Would love to see how you model a complete stylized character maybe with disney based anatomy? Also i’ve been following your videos for a long time and notice you only do Maya tutorials specifically, is this a preference or do you work with other programs as well? I tend to jump between Maya and ZBrush personally.
Really hope you get paid well for these videos. You helped me a lot this semester.
Thank You Very MATCH
You should try and get partnered! Would help with the costs 🙂
is there any way to do this without mental ray
