Well, like usual, I ran into some problems while texturing the Apache. Not only did the tutor use an insane texturing method, but I couldn't follow it for technicals reasons. I would like to go about and finish the texturing myself sometime, but right now I'm too mad at Maya and don't feel like working on it.

Fortunately, ZBrush 3 for Mac was just released! I should get it soon (hopefully within a week, but it might take a lot longer). Once I get it, I'll be learning how to use it and should update shortly after with some quick sketches.

Also, I've created a new logo for the website. Click here if you would like to see it.

Again, sorry for the long delay. I decided to stop working on the Chess Match project for several reasons, one of them being that Maxwell isn't used in the game industry, so I figured it's just a waste of time to learn. I did start a new project, though (Apache W.I.P.).

ZBrush 3 for Mac has finally received a launch date (September 29). I'm hoping I can get the Apache project finished by then, because right after it comes out, I'm going to switch over to learning it. I might be able to get the Apache textured within 2 weeks, but there always seems to be delays…

Sorry for the long delay. Maxwell decided to stop working in April, then I got busy with some other things. I did start up another project, but never had the time to post up the W.I.P. pics of it. So, there's a new Maya project (Ferrari), an updated poll, and I've changed some small things around the site.

Maxwell just started working again about a week ago, so I'm going to try and finish up the Chess Match project.

Some small updates to the site, a new Maya project (Chess Match W.I.P.), and an updated poll. It was nice to model something without a tut, and I can't wait to start the texturing on it. I don't know how long it will be till my next update, as I'm going to be busy for the next couple of weeks. Plus, I'm going to be learning how to use a new application (Maxwell Render) for the rendering of this project.

I've finished the Pirate Ship and updated the poll. I'm currently testing a new RSS feed for the site. If you have any problems with it, please contact me.

Sorry for the late update, a lot of things came up (Maya problems, minor computer problems, etc.). I have no idea how long my next update will take, as I won't be using a tutorial for it. I'm planning on getting the modeling done within 3 weeks. If you would like to see the progress of the Pirate Ship, click here.
