hey guys me again,
i have been modeling for over a year now and have gotten fairly well except for the fact that i cannot model people or animals i can only model weapons misc objects etc and i need a tutorial on human modeling.
Also if you can find one or even make one for me ide like to know of any tutorials on skining models and making skins as i have been tryin this for over a year and cannot find a tutorial that goes in depth with skinning and understanding the model if you get me, they all seem the say do this do that do this (most of the stuff isnt even on my screen lol probly did sumfin wrong) and they dont have pictures or anything to help me.

best regards

Which modeling editor do you use?

If MED, you could search on the forum for that one mentioned in my signature.
Maybe, it doesn't serve for your needs, if you still have questions after reading it, feel free to ask me!

if you google "Organic modelling" and add the name of the editor to the end you should get something

the best character tut on the web i think

thanks guys its nice to see someone reply's lol anyways i have made a simple cigerette in 3dgs as my test subject as it is really easy to skin and i have my skin for it thanks to alienheritecs ashtray model and skin..cheers mate i use 3dgs and i can model with blender but at the moment just 3dgs. i am reading the tutorial jigalypuff has posted at the moment then im going to try and skin that later on. with that tutorial it sais to put the picture as the background...how do i do that lol ive always made good quality models without ever putting a picture in the background, i guess i should for better quality and more accurate. please i need to know how to do that and work out the sizes.

thanks guys

sorry forgot to add this. jigalypuff what program are they using in the tutorial?

3D Studio Max

At this site there are many characters tutorials, hope you like it.

thanks man that site is awesome...i have 3ds max on cd and when i try to instal it my computer freezes hahaha meh ill fix it later but for now im drawing some character models for when i do learn to model humans.

thanks guys for all your help, ill post pics of my progress if you want then if im any good ill work for free for use even though i work for free now lol so if you need any models (unskinned at the moment) of objects at all ill do em for free in spare time.

Yes I think the Joan Of Arc tute is the most definitive (you may need to locate the english translation from memory) as it can be applied to any editor.

Have to look up the Lara Croft one though, didnt know about that one.
