Hey katie, Did you get a chance to take a look at the art stuff for milestone 2? Is there anything in there you are interested in signing on for?

It is dependent on how the texture is setup etc. like uv projection and what kind of geometry. I am going to run some test scenarios and see. I will holler at the results. =) --- On Tue, 5/12/09, eric drewes <figarus@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: eric drewes <figarus@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [project1dev] Re: Items left for milestone (5/11) To: project1dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Tuesday, May 12, 2009, 12:16 PM cool, maybe saturday will be the modeling party or whatnot so we can clear the rest of the models. hey on a technical note, does maya 09 go right into milkshape with the materials/textures intact? anyways, w00t, im excited :) On Tue, May 12, 2009 at 2:20 PM, katie cook <ktmcook@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Oh BTW Eric =), I have a fair amount of time on Saturdays which is when I have started setting time aside specifically for the project. If you have a lot of stuff your doing this week and don't think you'll get to it by Saturday, I can help with the props your trying to do ie.shovel, etc. I am going to be modeling stuff anyway to keep me modeling and to become more proficient with Maya 09. -Katie --- On Tue, 5/12/09, eric drewes <figarus@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: eric drewes <figarus@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [project1dev] Re: Items left for milestone (5/11) To: project1dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Tuesday, May 12, 2009, 11:09 AM hey katie, Awesome! Excited to have more modelers working, and glad you're in :) I am guilty of this too so maybe we need a way to let everyone know what weplan on working on or have in process so we don't duplicate our efforts w/ models, etc. can't wait to see your stuff... -eric On Tue, May 12, 2009 at 2:05 PM, katie cook <ktmcook@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Hey Guys, I modeled a rail car on Saturday, and am working on texturing it up. If you want I can post it early so you can look at it. I am almost done with texturing, just have to finish up the wheels. Should be able to finish tonight or tomorrow. I was also going to model some shovels etc. Just filler stuff to help. Anyway, let me know what you guys think. I can do more models just let me know.
