Topic awaiting preservation: ***WARNING*** BIG SIG APPROACHING No Really. (Page 1 of 1)

Nearly 1MB but I just wanted to show something made with the new CS4's 3D capability.
This is more or less a first attempt. I'm not sure how delighted I am with this feature, even though I had "3D in Photoshop" on my wish list.
I'm due to format my computer soon so I thought I'd DL a trail version of CS4 now play with it for a month, reformat then I can have a nuther months play.
Sneaky I do be

comes in a over 900Kb! but it does look decent

I did manage to get it down to 300k without it looking too shoddy, the original GIF was over 3MB. I'm going to try to get the technique down before I get the file size down.
I haven't used it yet but DAZ 3D which is free by the way, seems to have a good bridge to switch to Photoshop from within the programme.

tao, did you just play around with the new 3d feature or did you use some tutorials? if yes, mind sharing them with us? i totally dig your sig - it's great work!

A mixture of both really mas. Here are a few of the resources I've been using recently. Quite a few dealing with 3D in CS3 and CS4.
Russell Brown
Kelby Training
Photoshop Cafe
Adobe Help
Photoshop Support
Adobe TV
I used a Russell Brown video tutorial to help create the sig.
