which way does she go when you first saw her - maybe you brain is perfectly balanced with both side working as one your the first person to say that

LOL maybe I should have asked which direction are her breast going

Carl wrote: how are you doing it

I stepped back until she was a blur then waited for her direction to change and stepped forward and her direction remained in the changed state. I suppose it doesn't count if you do it my way.

If I look at two of them, one for the left eye and one for the right, I can flip the direction with ease. I don't even need to step back.

Take a guess what this does.


proc guess (int $numSpans){
circle -n legSegProfile_nCir -c 0 0 0 -nr 1 0 0 -sw 360 -r 1 -d 3 -ut 0 -tol 0.001 -s $numSpans -ch 1;
for ($i=0;$i< $numSpans;$i++)
{
createNode noise -n yOffsetCv_noi;
setAttr .a .5;
float $cT=rand(0,1);
setAttr .ti $cT;
createNode noise -n zOffsetCv_noi;
setAttr .a .5;
float $cT=rand(0,1);
setAttr .ti $cT;
connectAttr -f yOffsetCv_noi.outColorG ("legSegProfile_nCirShape.controlPoints[" + $i + "].yValue");
connectAttr -f zOffsetCv_noi.outColorB ("legSegProfile_nCirShape.controlPoints[" + $i + "].zValue");
delete yOffsetCv_noi;
delete zOffsetCv_noi;
}
};

I really don't know - and I should be able to guess

It takes a circle like on the left and makes it into a circles like on the right. There is surely a better way but I thought this up myself so I like it.

I needed a bunch of squiggly circles. Can you imagine doing dozens of those by hand.

carl, i see her going both ways. at first, i saw her going clock-wise. the trick i used to get her going both ways was to watch the shadow of her feet for a bit. i could see those going in the other direction and when i then looked back at the full model, she was now following her feet shadow. cool, huh?

i wonder who first noticed that. it must have driven them crazy at first.

Yeap, most of us, since all of the modern world is educated to use the left hemisphere in percentage of 70%, to the detriment of the right one, besides children and some savage tribes that weren't affected by the western culture.
Therefore, I wonder if seeing the dancer turns clockwise doesn't reveals a left brain hemisphere dominance . Btw, I see her turning clockwise too, one time seen her counter clockwise and another time seen her half turn clockwise and half turn counter clockwise...

LMAO.....

shit maybe they should test kids to see which side of the brain is getting used more.. cause then they can work out what subjects they would be achievers in, rather than getting them to do subjects that will only waste their time. Granted they would need basics of those other subjects etc etc, am burbling lol.

Was looking at both the lists and always thought I was logical but maybe I live in a fantasy world believing that , mind explains why I am crap at languages even the one I use daily.

I have to say no matter what she wont stop spinning to the left (clock-wise), she even speeded up at one point when I tried to get her to go the other way.. and my poor eyes!

Nah, get two people to watch it at once, in the same room and one can see it going one direction while the other sees the opposite. Just tried that out. Also tried out the feet shadow thing again and now she wont stop turning anti-clockwise lol.

Just had a look she's back to clock-wise

I signed up for a Bryce class, will see how that goes, plus inflict you guy's with the homework lol.

For now I think I should head to bed though, am way tired. Night night all! Have fun and be creative!

I think Bryce is an excellent choice. Not because I know anything about Bryce but because I think, anything that enables you to get started is excellent. What made you decide to choose Bryce? What is the difference between Bryce and Daz?

Can't wait to see it. I hope I can be of some help. Hopefully I will know more about it than I did about Terragen or XenoDreams.

Um.. my list of classes I would like to do is getting longer as well.

Daz
Terragen v.2
Ultra fractal
possibly the next to Bryce classes after this one

mind list might get longer if I keep reading what classes there are.

I like the last class I did because even though we all followed the same course work, we all ended up with totally different images at the end, mainly because of the choices , and that we all design in different ways as well.

Yep, that would be the nice. So far all of mine has been monkey see monkey do. So all I end up with is a big pile of monkey do.

Okay, without having to look at the previous page, I can see that you guys are into a deep intellectual conversation......so I won't interupt..... LOL....

heh has this page died or something??

okay I went over to the Daz3d website yesterday and Bryce 6.1 is on sale so I just had to buy it.. and a few extra bits to go with. Plus got my confirmation email this morning for the class I start on Monday!! So watch out I'll be Brycing soon! lol.

Mind I did do an image last night need to practice more I think cause the render quality on the land is pretty low.

Nothing like commitment. Now you can get to work.

Already! You don't mess around. Nice job. You used Bryce for that?
When do you start your class?
