Description
The first two are a couple of quick renders using Tate`s SToo1 and the LDD stroller done in Carrara
BG by Capelito
The bottom is my first Maya render
I have been using Maya for a couple of days since Autodesk announced that all there software could be downloaded for 30 days trail or free for student use. So over the last few days I have:-
Day1 one download 1.4gig install and register
Day2 configure Wacom Bamboo to work as 3 button mouse Download some videos and play about,made a banana and a vase!
Day3 MY first scene. Bong was saved as a fbx file format from Carrara and then imported into Maya he losses the textures but he then has a rig for posing. I then worked out the texturing lighting shadows and some simple modeling to make the scene
I suppose with anything new it seems difficult but I hope with time to crack some of the features this package has to offer
A couple of weddings for the weekend so I start prep tomorrow but in the mean time I will download a few more videos!
Happy midweek to All! Maybe see you Sunday!

good ones :)
I will never understand why it is so complicated to go from one softawre to another in 3d : textures, lighting, moving in the scene... one always have to learn new things and to change one's habits :-( Nice job, the upper right image looks very good !
wonderful renders. I really like the first two.
Well done....good job my friend and good luck with Maya which I find very complicated but I'm no expert...
Very cool! Have fun with Maya. I've played with it before and really liked it's rendering engine!
nice trio Nick, so how's it going? you post very little these days.
Nice work on the top two. I looked at Maya, but it doesn't appear to have a Mac version.
Fantastic work !!!! Hugs!
wonderful images!
Very nice..they all look great!!
How cool! I love my tablet, but it won't work right in Poser. Cool work, Nick! ")
Great job on all of the Nick, really enjoyed that Maya one also
I commend you for taking on this learning curve and will love to hear how it goes along the way....thanks for sharing
I am a true autistic when it affects other software. Maybe I'm too slow on the uptake. Well, DS, Carrara, Hexagon and Bryce. That's enough for me actually. In any case, all your pictures are very well done!
You Have been Busy:)Excellent Work
the steampunk baby carriage is so funny and as well the metal skeleton pushing it. very entertaining work
Such a cool creation Nick, amazing metal textures and lighting, excellent and creative!
A wonderful collection of images you have here. The top two look lovely and vibrant with super lighting and excellent posing and character. Marvellous effects with the Maya scene with super reflections and textures. I hope we see some more of these very creative works.
excellent composition man stick to it you will come around with theses applications.
Great couple of works man, very well done.. Keep it up!!
Cool!
Very funy scene and steampunk baby carriage, love it!!!
Wow Nick Well done go for it superb work !!
Very cool collage work Nick, excellent done.
excellent collage nick but i have to agree top right is the best, haven't tried maya, hell i haven't even been using poser much! great work my friend!:)*5
Super renders. I have heard good things about Maya so your experimentation will be of great interest.
Cool work as always! Unique style!
Fine scenes and renders, Nick! Interesting to follow your progress with Maya! :o)
Dig the humour and models in the top two and Maya can do some seriously good shit...er, renders, especially using the robust particle system...keep up the good work Nick ! ~Cheers~
