How Business?

oh yeah! Zuliban he was a benchmark back in the day much like BBB3 is now. Nattys stuff was great too. Maybe we should have a retrospective for the oldies!

Zuliban was not only technically accurate, his work had such a strong feeling to them. Of all the old posters Zuli is the one I would love to see around. You can still see some of his old stuff at CGTalk: http://zuliban.cgsociety.org/gallery/

Zulibans work was what got me properly into 3d (the kitchen image, to be precise) - I had been playing around with it making 'abstract' things in photoshop (all awful) but never thought of treating it like serious photography tool.

Our statement on not posting work is that it's too much work to keep a consistent presence across so many sites, so we don't bother with any.

he does have a website http://zuliban.com/

Yes but not an active one, unfortunately. He seems to have made changes in the structure, though. Earlier he had all of his old work there too. Seconding what Cubicle said.. I really only started seriously obsessing over 3D after seeing some of Zulis early work

I wouldn't mind seeing more work posted here and maybe would consider posting my own, but the boards structure isn't appealing in that regard. What I mean is I really like the active top row -thumbnails places like Zbrushcentral have, makes it somehow more approachable.

I was reminded of her the other day because I got an email, from my website, asking for advice. The email was asking about my settings, and after asking some questions, I found out that all they had to work with was a laptop.

Same here. Very much so...

I was rendering in 3DS MAX, using the build-in engine, when I saw a house render that had darker corners. I thought that the dirt build up really added realism, so I found out what software it was done with. I tracked the image down to V-Ray. So, here I am.

Despite using V-Ray on 99.99% of the stuff we work on, I think most of the guys here (myself included) are interested more by the technical aspects of the process and unfortunately in that regard we're not doing anything very exciting, so I tend not to post new work here unless it has something technically appealing about it.

Well written...almost ditto for me, some confidentiality, too.
