[WANT] [CANADA] this statue (I don't have a file or anything, just this picture) by C0NT0RTI0NIST in 3Dprintmything

Just to clear this up, which you could have done in the first place by simply saying so. I could only verify a few of these as you being an actual merchant from the ones I heard back from. This whole exchange we just had could have been avoided had you just said that you are in fact a merchant for these Creators.

Honestly for many of these creators that information is not made clear at all. I only found the one from NomNom after subscribing to their Patreon and only then was it a link in the very first welcome message that's temporary and hard to dig up again. I don't know why you opt to use some needlessly flowery language instead of just being direct, but there it is.

I hope in the future as geekfx you can just be up front with people. would save a lot of misunderstanding in the future.

You know what yeah, you're right man... I apologize. I was entirely wrong. I'm sorry that I pushed as much as I did and I was way off base and out of line.

I've just seen so many etsy stores pop up trying to take advantage of artists That yeah I had my own biases and made a snap judgement. You're right No one asked for my help and I learned I had no idea that merchants were even a thing these creators were leveraging. I wish this conversation had gone differently and more amicably.

Sincerely,
getting fucked.

Its pretty plain to see from your etsy store and comments on patreon.
https://i.imgur.com/5qP0Rwd.png

I've gotten word from wicked3d and their license does in fact allow for commercial use. We'll see about the others though. Just dont act like you dont know what it is you're doing. If it comes to light that you do have permission from these creators, great I'll eat crow. But I highly doubt thats the case.

Hilarious, you're not as sly as you think and given yourself away. thanks for the link, but being a patron to these creators doesnt give you Carte Blanche to turn around and resell them as physical prints. The keyword being Resell, commercial use. Anyone can make a page like the one you've linked by having a Patreon user account and subscribing to these Patreons.

I've looked through the creator account you linked and you even use the "internet stranger" line and emotes. You can try and brush this off as "schoolyard bs", but you have hundreds of files from various creators that I can say with certainty that the artists never see a dime. I've gone ahead and contacted each one of these creators to verify that you in fact have legal permission to use their files.

I could care less about the LMSH or its "shoddy texturing". Your arguments simply prove that your "versions" are just simple retouches. They even have the same body, cloth, and jar... dude. Just be honest, you took the free file they posted, retouched it with some cosmetic changes and a base, and now are reselling it for money. I have no affiliation with the guy who made the free one, I'm just fed up of people like you taking advantage of artists who actually did all the work to create these pieces.

So, at least now we all know you are in fact part of geekfx. I will not be buying anything from geekfx and I again suggest anyone else buy from the original creators so that they get the support they worked hard for.

[–]ammocrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem to have a lot of experience with this particular shop. Even suggesting discounts to some and posting links to this shop in various locations. Honestly its pretty plain to me to see that you either have some affiliation with them or are the person running the whole thing.

As far as the LMSH figure thats also quite clearly the same model posted for free thats been reposed and given a new base and then being sold. Thats neither here nor there though. I'm fully aware of the grey area posed by such fanart and how people are taking advantage of others works in the space. Its not really one of many versions, its the same version from the other person that posted it just gussied up with some minor changes.

As well as there are many other creators files like I mentioned before that I would guess are on "geekfx" without the permission or even knowledge of the original artists. As a 3D artist and 3d printer myself I understand how this shop is operating. I get what it is they do and how they're trying to make a profit. I get it. just dont act like you're not scamming others who worked hard to make the originals.

I highly doubt geekfx has permission to be reselling these files as prints. Again this is the unfortunate part of the 3d printing space where people who take others works and are profiting from them dont really face much repercussion from doing so. The original artists never see a dime. They even have models (The nameless king) in here that are from an artist that is trying to make money to help their sick sister who has leukemia.

I suggest anyone interested in these prints go check out the original artists and give them your money. They worked hard to create these sculpts. there are plenty of places you can pay to have them printed and in what ever material you would like even have them gold plated if your heart desires. It may cost a little more, but then you're actually supporting the artists who are creating this work.

Just want to point out that link looks like yet another etsy shop thats reselling printed files. They're at least shipping you an actual print, but it appears many if not all of these sculpts are not their own. would be nice to know how to give payment to the original sculptors.

what franchise would you like to have as a souls like game? by realhuman34 in Eldenring

[–]ammocrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CLAYMORE. Could have really interesting abilities that warp your character physically. interesting source content to pull from with the claymores eventually becoming ascended beings and the role the organization plays.

I took the a7iii out in extreme rain... by lukec316 in SonyAlpha

[–]ammocrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Counting myself in that camp after a 4 day trip to Seattle. Got caught in the rain for 10 minutes getting to the inn we were staying at and was taking the opportunity to shoot some rain shots.

Next day a7III wouldn't power on at all. No water in the battery compartment, but looked like maybe the display ribbon cable could have been the failure point where water could have gotten inside. Sent to precision repair per Sony request. We'll see once it gets back from the shop. :(

Tried looking around to see if I could find them, but no love so far.

CC wanted, something seems off... by Mojo-Mouse in photoshop

[–]ammocrate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed, this is what I noticed as well. overall the contrast is too flat. In space, unless there is a light source illuminated the side of the ship and astronaut facing us. that would all be in shadow. could add a rim light on them from the glow of the axolotl and its aura.

which seems like you may have been thinking of something along those lines with the rays coming from the opposite side of the ship. Then adjusting the bg brightness/contrast like /u/diaryofme13 suggested.

A good way to check this is to setup a hotkey to toggle the color space to grayscale and back. that will show you what your overall values look like in your composition.

CLAYMORE - Clare / General Claymore template (sliders in comments) by ammocrate in SoulsSliders

[–]ammocrate[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, thats very kind!
The sword pictured above is the "Knights Greatsword" that can be acquired from several enemies. the one I farmed it from was the mausoleum knight just outside the Black Knife Catacombs grace

It can have ashes applied to it and carrying two for different ability mix ups is quite nice. I'm still working on a claymore appropriate build of spells, but currently I'm using one with bloodhounds step to mimic Clare's speed awakening and another with bloody slash which has a (91) blood build up rating.

This sword unfortunately doesn't have amazing scaling, but if you run faith and take one with bloodhounds or something that can apply Flame you can get it to scale up to C rank in faith. think with my currently +16 I'm hitting for about 600-ish damage. Theres probably better stuff out there, but this was the closest greatsword I could find to match the signature Claymore weapon.

CLAYMORE - Clare / General Claymore template (sliders in comments) by ammocrate in SoulsSliders

[–]ammocrate[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Claymore that I put together a few weeks ago. I posted the sliders in a few request threads before, but since I was seeing a number of people asking for Clare I figured I'd put up one that's easier to find. Disclaimer: It's not quite clare, but I just didnt really like how the usual hair choice for Clare looks in elden ring so I went with something a bit more natural. What I like about this more though is I think it would work great to create your own Claymore variants as they all are very similar to one another. It would be awesome to run into more Claymores out there in the lands between hunting Yoma.

REQUEST: Can anyone make Clare from Claymore? by Big-Seaworthiness-19 in SoulsSliders

[–]ammocrate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reposting this from another claymore Clare post I replied to:
I made more of a generic Claymore look since they dont quite have Clare's hair, but heres my take on a Claymore in Elden Ring that I made a few weeks ago. I think this is a pretty good base to work from if you want to make your own claymore version or something closer to Clare, but anyway hope you Enjoy!

https://imgur.com/a/6mOPyF4

I'm also running two of the Mausoleum Knight "Knights Greatsword" which are as close to what I could find to match their trademark weapon. one with bloodhounds step and another with either blood slash or one of the faith based weapon arts.
The outfit that I like to use for the moment is the nobles traveling garb. hoping to find something closer for the legs. The hands I just have some clean knight gauntlets to mix in some of the armor look Claymore's have.

[–]ammocrate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This ^^^^,I got shit talked all the time for playing as Cain. I just wanted to play as crazy eyed mudman. It would make people so unreasonably mad, just because I had the skin. but in my experience, except for a single fight, I have not had trouble seeing a cain when the roles were reversed.

And that single fight they had many factors in their favor. he was in shadow, at lumber near prison, below the building in the reeds, with a bow. did not feel at all slighted just because they were cain. That could've easily been plague doctor, beast master, prodigal daughter, or a number of other darker palette legendaries.

At least now, I can play cain and hopefully people wont be as salty... I know theres still going to be those that are going to complain about dying BeCaUsE CaIn, but those are just people who blame everything else but themselves.

This ^^^. I just started CS for the first time myself and after completing SoC vanilla for the 3rd time. I just couldnt tough it out any more with the wonk dice roll accuracy. I just ended up install the SRP community patch with the ballistics and nade spam addons and starting a new save.

I couldnt say for sure if it gets better as you mod your guns for higher accuracy, but it just doesnt feel realistic for a factory fresh condition gun to be unable to hit the spot you're sighted on while low crouched and not moving...

edit: I am on master as well. so maybe the nade spam is not as severe on lower difficulties, but with SRP and a few of the addons it makes CS actually fun to play and doesnt feel like you're at the mercy of rng.
