Things I make aside from using FF

Give you an idea. Here's another one

Very nice!!!

Went and checked out Artmatic.....and looks like you can create some pretty cool stuff with it.....

Very nice stuff, Skybase and Steve...
Is there a windows version of that program?
All I can find is Mac.

Boy I really like the second to last one...That white one...

Just something I made while I had time.

If you're on a budget, try Blender first. Carrara does as much as well, it's got a great modeling toolset as well as Hexagon. In a sense, I feel like you'd enjoy Carrara a lot. It's capable, very enjoyable, just lacks a couple things. Personally, I began doing a lot of 3D with the old Metacreations tools, that includes RayDreamStudio (lol) and eventually Carrara. I basically think "it's good enough."


---Some rambling---
I feel some people argue that you need high end software all the time, but so far, I'm not convinced. While "everything" is impossible, with a bit of technique and thought, I can definitely do what Modo does in Carrara. I often feel people don't need $800... $3000 tools to do "high end" work. People seem to bloat the idea that getting something worth more results in better quality. That's not the case with software. I've seen people blow away $3000 on Cinema where they only use probably 15% of the tools offered. I just think people should get cleaver with what they already have rather than drooling for more. In the end, we're all human and we're susceptible to wants so I can't avoid myself looking and drooling at new software. But I gotta work with what I got. That to me is professional. Life's all good with one or two tools. Love everything.
-------------------

Blender has been enjoyable as well. I do use Blender occasionally for some of it's elements but for the most part I'm settled using Modo, Maya, or Cinema4D.

Wow! Beautiful multi cubes landscape abstract design with special glowing lighting. Great Work

I personally love very much abstract 3D designs

What software have you used?

Happy New Year 2014. Best Wishes

I really don't know when I'll finish the comic at this rate, but it's quite a tough task accomplishing each thing of painting. In regard to otherwise, what really helps is procedural stuff. FilterForge in this case was mildly used to determine where moss growth should be based on the original image. I then just paint right on top of where stuff goes and it really looks natural but with taste.

Just to introduce bits of the story, basically it's about my character Cosmos the soulless (my avatar picture = character), who's on an adventure to find his soul in a surreal world.

Beautiful environment for your character Yuya!

Been a while I posted anything here.

I made some motion graphics pieces for a bunch of music performances. Although the stills already looked ok so here's just some of it.

Main program: After Effects along with several plugins.

I haven't animated this one. But if I could, I would.

Just that the render times even on a ridiculous good machine is atrocious.

I just realized I haven't uploaded some of these anywhere.

This was for a game I was making titled "I Wanna Be a Circle" which almost happened but didn't for a bunch of reasons.

Skybase, You are a great and lovely artist and like the artworks and the creative ideas you have and also admire that you are able to master and use lots of different software of different topics and 2D and 3D worlds and even video and animation software too.

More from SIDETRIP.

WOW!!!! Love the things you can do, really awesome, amazing and stunning and is true and you know it

How have you done that incredibly beautiful Impossible city?

This one's a bit old. I made this in 30 minutes or something but it's basically just a test image for shader setups I made.
Cinema4D and IndigoRT renderer.

Specifically the shader settings utilize real-world captures of specular-reflection values, hence metallic objects look very convincing.

Experimental AfterEffects art

Here's a sample of the object moving around.

I have no experience with AE, but it makes me want to dig into VVVV again! Nice one!

Those 'TimeLapse' series of videos you have are really interesting too. All the hours of work and details effortlessly glossed over and compressed into minutes. What better way of convincing kids they want to become computer artists. Look ma, its just that easy.
