you better start learning 3dmodeling (maya,3dsmax,etc) then model your armour and render it, just you have to do some "trial and error" to have the right renderzoom and directions after that resize the rendered images.

(this is simmilar to what i did for my shield.)

it is offcourse possible to do it all with adobe but for that you realy need to be an artist thats able to draw certain images out of the hand or else your images directions will be messed up

like i said if you realy wanna try creating items for mir you should start learning some 3dmodeling /Rendering

(WARNING!!!! : if you are not a person thats able to spend loads of time on this,
Then dont even try to start a project like this)


i will try and push myself to create a simple tutorial for this BUT dont count on it (got loads todo)

3d modeling? = creating a 3 dimensional model,scene,animation,etc that you can manipulate

(Maya,3dsmax,etc) = example of programs used in 3d modeling



no offense m8 but if you dont know what 3dmodeling is i recommend you not to start this project (unless offcourse you learn fast and/or prepared to spend the time in learning)

And when u save in bmp ... for .wil must to be in 256 bmp colors , not in 24/32 bits. dont forget this... Is important this... :bounce: :punch: :ppunk: :tongue1:

true true but lets first focus on getting the 3dmodel :P you later on apply a texture or draw an uvmap that way you can make sure your model will be 256 :D

at least thats what i did (there are numberous ways to do this tho)

http://thepiratebay.org/search/maya/0/99/0 this link will get on your way

on there, download maya software (make sure its for windows)
read all their instructions that come with the software and crack it
(if you got problems cracking it leave a msg ill help , its very easy to crack just make sure you read the intructions 3 times :P)

on that link is also alot of maya e-books,tutorials,videos,etc
i recommend everyone that start learning maya to download the
"digital tutors" books they are paid learning packs (very very helpfull)
and if you got enough space your comp you can always download
"Maya Extreme Bundle"- thats the best learning pack you could start with it has it all form modeling to texturing and rendering thats also on that link


hope this will get on your way to learning maya


ive chosen maya for you to learn so i could share my knowledge if needed :P
