3d Modeler

[Appoloinus]

My area of studdy in school other than comp sci is technical theatre. The wonderfull thing about it, in my opnion is the lighting, you get to paint a 4 dimentional painting, yes 4. you have the norma 3 and the added one of time, so the picture changes. One great effect is achieved by placing a pattern in a light and then aiming the light at a object, the pattern wraps itself arond the person, box, chair or whatever.



ON TO THE POINT! Any one know of a 3D modler where i can build a wire modle of a face and then wrap an image file over it like skin?

I think you'll get more help on that in a 3D group, News group, itc. There are lotsa sites, just search Google.

Yes, you will have to get the latest version of Charactor Studio with 3d Max 5 or Maya complete for nurbs facial mapping.

Appoloinus,

You can model a face in any 3D program. Poser has standard models that can be wrapped with any image. Imagemodeler lets you build a face from a photo. Quidam generates faces. Silo costs $100. They all require study. Download a demo and grab a cup of coffee.

Try these software solutions.

This quicktime is a Poser face with an animated fire map. Set quicktime to Loop.

Re: 3d Modeler

i do wish folks would quit calling time a dimension, but i suppose that's an arguement for another thread (sorry, thread hijack over )

Actually, as someone who works a lot in 3D, I have some observations and theories about time and its relation to spacial dimensions. I think I can even describe what the surface of time must look like.

If you want to start another thread for it, I think it would be a very interesting conversation.

Have you tried AC3D? www.ac3d.org
It's gre at for texturing
