Good job on the textures, looks great. Here are a couple of books I find invaluble for creating realistic textures . 3d photorealism toolkit, and advanced 3d photorealism techniques by Bill Flemming www.komodostudio.com check'em out!

[proximo]

thanks for the info on the books. i think ill goto boarders today and take a look

[proximo]

Side fins, what are those? :P naw im going to be adding them in i just need to get around to it , and it was modeled in 3d max 3 , with splines. and thanks

sheeeeit.....

Youll never guess what happened. When i clicked on anim. link it loaded in MediaPlayer and just before it started to play....... ## MY COMPITER FSREEZEDSS!! THEN I BPoot.. wai... wait....

And then he whispers: "hey shiz, try clearing CMOS!"

And only after.. i cleared CMOS, loaded fail-safe settings, ran defragment and I AM STILL NOT COMFORTABLE WITH IT

It looks a little too much like a rubber squeaky toy try adding some alpha channels to the fins so the ends appear to be thinner and semi-transparent like a real fish, also is the eye a seperate model? it could use a seperate specularity setting to make it stand out a bit from the specularity of the scales. looks good so far tho!

Nice work, it must have been lots of work to texture this fish. You should add another layer of fish skin and add transparency to it. Especially the fins and the tail. If you are too lazy to make another layer of skin, just make sure the fins and the tails have some transparency, jus a little. This fish would be great underwater! nice job

[proximo]

thanks guys , i am going to add in transparencys tot he fish, matter a fact i was doing it today, and its looking better, as for the eye it is not as of yet a seperate object, i am not sure if i am going to because the underwater sean im doing for is going to have may fish and stuff in them so im not sure how im portant maken and eye and and adding it in would be but thats for the in sight, and as far as shizo goes, you cought me , this animation was really a secret plan to crash your computer, and only your computer, good to know it worked

Proximo, can I ask what you modeled it with? I'm really interested in doing my own 3d animations..

[SaltyDog]

I like it too...very impressive, but one thing..Where are it's side fins??

[LeChuck]

Relax Shizo. Here, have some bread and vodka. Calm down.

Cool fish, what software did you use?
