Quality 3d models download in .MAX and .3ds format, 3d wallpaper animation tutorial and more..

Hi
I want to begin doing animation and 3d modeling and I am looking for a software title that is
- Easy enough for beginners to learn.
- Easy enough so that I will be able to use it fairly well within a couple months of first using it.
- All in one software for example I won’t need to purchase any additional plugins although one or two won’t hurt but I rather not spend the extra cash as the main money will be on the software.
- Something with good documentation and tutorials for beginners.
- Something that will allow creation of models, lipsync of those models and animation of those models.

I am thinking within the lines of Daz Carrara, 3d Studio Max, Poser Pro, Maxon Cinema 4d, or Lightwave.

If you have any other choices please let me know, but those choices are the ones that are my favorite.

Thanks for your help

I would like to be a 3D animator or modeler but most of the portfolios I see from professionals working in the 3D animation industry are awesome and way above my current skills. They seem to be able to do anything, they can model, light, texture, animate, use particle systems etc. Many pros can also draw, paint or sculpt at a professional level as well. I would love to work as an artist for an animation studio but I can’t do all that. I can draw a little bit and if I spend enough time, make a very basic character animation.

Do you need to be so multi-talented to find work in the 3D animation industry?

Could I find work with just some basic drawing skills and a simple, short animation?

to be able to do this kind of 3D work ( http://clan-foren.de/vdl/stuff/protoss.jpg ) what kind of program should i get? needs to be free

is it blender? is it easy to learn? how easy is it to go from 3D model to 3D character like this ( http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3099/2549481543_210c898af2.jpg?v=0 ) adding texture and color, etc?

Well, as part of my first year of Uni. I have successfully managed to model many items as part of my coursework. However, I had been wondering how hard it is actually animating using 3D Studio Max?

I have looked all over youtube and found a few animation videos, and judging by the legnth of those videos, I reckon it is one hell of a ‘workhorse’ (in other words, it looks like a 3 min video would take ages to produce).

Anyway, the whole point of this question is to ask you experts out there your opinion on animating using 3Dsmx? Is it really hard etc.

Thanks

I’ve always preferred animating to modelling, but have never learned the methods for 3D animation.

I’m looking for some advice on which books / DVD’s are worth purchasing.

Key point here is the focus on animation

Hi, i just started learning 3ds max before i go off to uni to do 3d modelling and animation, and was wondering if you lovely people can help.

Since its a very easy thing to do, l like making a sphere and applying a fur preset to it, and make a quick animation of it moving about to show off and demonstrate what im doing ect.

The problem is that the fur ‘falls into’ the sphere as if it isn’t a solid object . I was wondering how to fix this as it makes the sphere get bald spots through the animation. Thanks alot for reading!

I have a question and if there are any 3d animators just answer me.

I have an issue with texturing with regard to 3D animations with Maya.

I recently modeled a face and textured it (it was polygon model with subdiv proxy on). After texturing the subdiv model I found out when I made my animation speak that the texture stays at the same place. I.e. When the mouth moves – the lipstick doesnt move with the lips.

Kindly let me know how can I get around this problem

I have decided to make a model of my college using 3D studio max with lots of animation in it. How is the idea?

please give me other suggestions…:)
