WoW it's been a while yet again since I wrote here but I've been keeping busy with all the helmet requests around this time of year. I can't for the Football season to start. I've been watching some Canadian Football on TV and I've seen some pretty good games.
Been pretty busy at my regular job lately also and been spending some of my free time trying to learn how to play Bass guitar so not much to show these days. My brother recently quit his band which was called The Zombunists and wanted to start a project with me where he can take his time until I catch up to him and we can start writing and performing music. I did finish up all the USFL helmets and am still thinking of maybe adding more facemasks once the Football season gets underway and also adding to the 2d helmet template.
The last stadium I made for Maximum Football is almost complete but I still need to fill it with a crowd. It's called Bank Stadium and I'll have pictures up for it a little later because I have it on the latest Beta right now and I cannot post screenshots of the beta until it becomes public. I hesitated to finish it because custom stadiums we're gonna be disabled in the latest beta.
It still worked and it's looking like custom stadiums will work in the latest bet version of Maximum Football.

I'm getting ready for the playoffs tomorrow I'm hoping for the Colts to win but it's probably not gonna happen :(
I started messing around with some of these stadiums and came up with alot of interesting shots. I wish they would like this in Maximum Football but they don't. But it would probably eat up alot of resources. It took 3 minutes just render out a single frame into .jpg format.
Hallway view
The Newer stadium looks very nice.
I also made some interesting changes to the coliseum, I'm gonna add more stuff to it before I release it. I also made a ref model and cloned him to have a few referees around the field for it and I will add to jumbo trons for it too and lights so stay tuned for that one. Some people might like it and some people may not. So I'll keep both available for download just in case.

Haven't been doing much in the 3d department but have been working on few things here and there mostly crappy shorts with crappy effects. Uploaded them to youtube and setup a page for it. It's been a boring year so far but it might change, New Years for me usually start off good and end up sad but this year it might be the other way around since it started off bad :)
Also been working on another stadium for Maximum Football and might actually use some of these Maximum Football stadiums for helmet animations and uploading more to Youtube. I also plan to add more to the coliseum stadium but I've been working on this on and off so don't know when they'll be finished. The newer tdium is shown below
Happy New year to all, I know it came 14 days late but it's better than nothing

It's been a while again since I posted I have been working on stuff but haven't been posting squat here because I'm a lazy ass beeotch when it comes to updating anything. I've been working on crappy films and made a seperate page from the Football stuff for my other Youtube videos.
The Actual Youtube page which has everthing including the football clips
Oh and Happy New Year to all. Hopefully 2007 is a good year for all.

It's been a while since I wrote anything here, I actually had my internet connection cut off by Verizon. I liked my ISP Surfcity I've had them for quite some time. Since 1999 they've been good, it might've 2000 but not sure but I was working at Elink at the time. For some odd reason Verizon kept cutting the line saying that we our phoneline was disconnected and it never was.
I moved on to Adelphia soon to be Time Warner and It's pretty good actually. I had heard rumors that cable stinks around here. pffft well maybe they all the customers who we're hogging up the connection moved on DSL heheh. Anyway I fell behind on requests and am almost caught up now. While I was out I made alot of changes to the page and added to my parody league. Also upgraded some of the Maximum Football stadiums. Some look good and some not so good.
I added fans to metro stadium for Maximum Football but it doesn't look too good so far.
Outside of game
With release 3 just around the corner for Maximum Football I also upgraded my first stadium Western Stadium and tiled the walls a little to allow bigger sized images instead of shrinking them.
Also made a different stadium out of it with 2 upper decks a Jumbo Tron and also a press box. Also added a fence so no fans can sneak in for free.
Outside of game view
I also tried retexturing an existing stadium from the game itself.
I move some stuff around and added more to the comics section and also added and a female gallery.
I also added to my parody football league and put up some more Maximum Football uniforms and touched it up as well.

Okay today was my Birthday and I did nothing and had a nasty headache for most of the day. It was probably one of my worst birthdays ever but it was good that so many family and friends remembered to call me and wish a happy birthday. I did work on a few frames for the comic book that I mentioned below. I'll have more info in the weeks to come. I also decided to show off my humiliating myspace page all that weird stuff you see is just me and my little brother messin around.
Oh I also made one for my helmets
7/23/2006
I spent most of my weekend helping my sister move and helping my little brudder move stuff to his newly vacated room. I tried making fans for one of my Maximum Football stadiums but it was way too many polys even as low poly as possible.
The Coliseum like stadium I was working on got a slight overhaul. I had to remove the hallways because the walls looked a little nasty when you looked at it inside the game as seen bleow. I'm also running into the fog problem which I have not been able to get around.
I was able to finish mapping it but I still gotta texture it in Photoshop. I wanna add 2 Jumbotrons and a pressbox somewhere on the side.
I have also been workin on a comic called Melchior The Elven Computer Tech and another one that I will talk about later.

WoW it's been a while since I wrote anything here I lost my internet connection for about 2 weeks so that's part of the reason and I fell behind on some helmets that people requested. I've been working on a new stadium lately but it still needs to be mapped and textured. It's still low poly like the others but little by little I will add details. I might put this in maximum Football. It kinda looks like a coliseum type stadium and it has the track too.
Hopefully I'll get this sucker in the game asap if I can stop being a lazy bastard.

Wow it's been a while since I wrote crap in here but I have done stuff here and there but I've been too lazy to put it here hehe. I finally finished the 3d revoultion football helmet I was working on Woo Hoo!!!! there's good news and bad news tho. The bad news is that I accidently deleted the visor I made :(. The good news is that I got to put it in the 2d template that I'm making for the revolution helmet.
The 2d template is looking like this so far I'll have to redo the visor again. I'll get to it during the weekend cuz it'll be raining down here during the week.

WoW I can't believe summer went by so fast I haven't done much because I'm pretty busy around the start of Football season. I hope to finish some of the stuff I have started. I finally got around to working on The revolution helmet that I said I was gonna finish eheh.
Unforntunately when I tried making the weird shaped earholes I noticed today that it wasn't cutting thru. I did an STL error check and I had over 400 errors on the damm helmet. I got around to fixing the errors but I still need to remap the helmet 
. Luckily I don't need to redo the facemask and that was probably the hardest for me so that's good.
Last Saturday I went to this concert so I didn't do much and it was a great show I really liked all the Bands except for the Hangmen because they didn't show up.

It's been a while since I been down this road but I have been working on stuff on and off when time permits. I've been working on a 3d version of the Outlaws logo on and off. Alot still needs to be done but I think it's coming out good except for the hat.
I have also been messing around with the the Photoshop Pen Tool at first I hated it but I figured out ways to use it to my advantage. I figured out ways to use not for the overall shape of things but for shading and bringing out shapes. Errr I shoulda started using this tool along time ago it gives everything a comic book look you can see it clearly in the muscle areas on the images below.
Another thing I worked on was a mascot for football team called the Marshals over on the mlf league. Made in Photoshop and cleaned up in Corel Draw obcourse. Eheheh don't ask me but I've always like the white stroke and maybe that should be trademark of some sorts but not sure if I can even trade mark it heheh.
I have more stuff but I'll show it later cuz right now it's the busy season for me and 3d helmets.

WoW it's been a while since I've updated my journal but quite honestly it's been a while since I've had some free time to do something new. Football helmets are awesome and I love making but I've aching to make some other stuff but not enough time really because I need to learn ASP for work on my free time and Weekends are the only time I have nowadays to work on stuff. Today I put everything aside and started playing around with stuff and made a South Park Model and I'm thinking of putting it into Unreal Tournament 2004. The Animations will be very simple because they're pretty simple in the cartoon obcourse eheh.
I wanted to model the eyes but theres is too many polys already I'll keep you updated on my progress. I showed it to a few friends and they really liked it alot and can't wait to try it out.

WoW I did alot of things with the original 3d helmet and the 2d helmet and also this weekend because I had some free time Woo Hoo!!!!. First i made 2 different types of facemasks a full cage and a small cage mask. Samples below.
I also added those 2 same masks unto the newer chubby helmet I'll post some screenies later on in the forums. I also made a double bar helmet like the ones they used in the 60's and 70's and a single bar helm like the kickers still use. Pictures below I'll start adding some to the actual webpage itself later.
I also added the fullcage and smallcage facemasks unto the 2d helmet. I'm not sure I'll add the single bar and double bar masks just yet to the chubby helmet or the 2d helmet I probrably will but not sure yet.

January is almost over that quickly it went by oh well too bad heheh. I added some new layers to the 2d helmet to help make it better, thanks to Crush for inspiring me to do it. He's from the board. It has a shiny new look to it. It's a combination of 3d rendering and Photoshop working together.
Nothing more this week been really busy with other things and have decided to make the helmet open source as suggested by Crush.

Wow it took me 22 days to write down a journal entry for the newer journal. I think I'm gonna just make one for each year from now on. I've been looking into learning some programming as of late so that's why it's been slow around here. I can't decide on wether to learn C++ or Visual Basic. My little brother Morky (Marky is his real name) is leaning towards learning Visual Basic and I'm leaning towards learning towards C++. We both wanna learn the samething so we can help each other out. I have been looking at video tutorials and reading up a little on both languages and so has my brother. Pretty interesting stuff I might add we might work on some sort of game together if we get any good like a Basketball game. But don't know for sure I really don't wanna look too far ahead right now but so far It's been hard to learn but still interesting nonetheless.
I did make some logos for teams and those guys donated to the site so thanks to Defecator and Bwenberg for doing so.
The first one is the Law Dogs and that acutally looks like one of my dogs sorta
And the Defecators a football team for who knows what league.
For football helmets so far this year I have only made the Oklahoma Sooners helmet. I might expand on the NCAA helmets but don't know when.

Having been doing much just starting a new page altogether for the new year and that is all for now.
