this is cool! but surly sam loya should have a dozen dates for deaths he's died so many times in your videos lol
Looks spoooooky... But, I was hoping to make a bad ass composition THIS halloween
, just giving you hell Mr. Kramer, call it a tit for tat for getting me all excited and checking your blog twice an hour for almost a month now like a seventh grader checks her facebook hoping that the city model pack has invited her to winter formal... Wait, what just came out of my mouth?

Just bought 3D Element ANDREW ANDREW ANDREW you guys are best it's been a blast say hi to Sam Loya for me
Here is one other problem Andrew That i am facing.
I tried to mix your "Element 3D Environment Tips" Tutorial And "3D Truck composite" Tutorial.
I had my chopper in 1st group ; plane with matte shadow in group 2 ; Enviornoment sphere layer in group 3.
Problems I am facing:
1.Even if i did everything right the plane (matts shadow) Layer is showing white.
2.If i make 2 element layers and place my Chopper and envirnoment layer on 1st and and place plane on second Emnt layer beneath the main element layer still it show that surface.
*Perfect shadow is coming. But the matte plane is there as white surface..

If the OBJ files will be included in the download, can't you import them into after effects and composite with them that? I would love to have element or a 3D program on the computer here at work, but convincing management to shell out for these expenses in difficult.
And I was recently tasked with creating a Halloween themed show open in AE, so you can imagine my relief when I saw this free model pack that came out. So, is it possible for me to use these models without having either a 3D program or element, just by importing them?

Not entirly sure why my site link was removed. Feedback from the moderator (Andrew?) would be helpful, as I'm trying to develop some useful models for folks who use Element. Thanks!

Paddy's Day Pack
Easter Pack
Thanks Giving Pack ( I hear this is popular! )
And any other Holiday packs I may have missed.....

You should fix these Bugs Of Element Andrew Please
1.When we rotate the camera right to left it rotate normal but when we rotate up and down to see a objects in comp it doesnt fully rotate. It flip. why is this hapening ? In E3D interfeace both (up&down/left&right rotation are working. But not in comp with a camera.
2.How can we collide the 3d objects together using E3D ? Is there any expression ; if there is you should make tutorial for it or you should fix this on PlugIn.
3.Put more groups like minnimum 10 that we can put more object in single element layer.
4.We cannot zoom as much we want to see models every corner and detalis as we can see in 3D pROGRAMS. Why is that
5.There should be one more option for custom layout that we can edit and save because everytime i open element i have to place them again as my suitable areas. And its time taken to do that again and again.
6.Can you make water materials for proshader ? How can we do it.
7.Can we make our own texture image for shader/material and and it can be saved in

I wasn't going to- but seems like there are a good amount of other folks posting free models in the comments here, so what the hey-
http://www.jlthemga.com/3d-models/
I'm rolling out (slowly) a site with sculpted 3D models created in Pixologic's Sculptris. Right now I'm working on zombies. 'Cause.. Well.. I like to make zombies.. Any way, they're free (untextured- so you'll have to do SOME work) Exported as OBJ models with Element 3D in mind- but I also included the SC1 file so you can play around with the models and build on them in Sculptris (you should- it's free).
Hope you all enjoy- and Thanks to the VC team for the amazing work on Element 3D, I can't wait to get a little more use out of it once I have more models finished!

At the tender age of 44. And some other guy, a smaller person, was taken with the Regular kitchen knife___Because He Couldn't Handle Being W/O VIDEO COPILOT!!! :-O
Wow! This stuff is intense!
Lol, Hope to see what people do with it! Hope they share & give a little reference credit.
Looks great, good quality. You're Just.-,.~'_.`. . .STUPENDOUSLY Awesome!! 
K. I'm done. Bye! And Thanks again on behalf of ALL!!!

First of all, I think Sam Loya has aged well!
But thank you guys for all of the constant free content and time you devote to helping other vfx artists and designers expand their own skills. You guys are amazing, thanks for all the hard work!

i know this doesnt have anything to do with this post but i was wondering if there was a way to make obj bounce of one another or just have some form of collision instead of passing threw each other in element ofc
awesome! thank you so much...I wish it came out earlier, I just wrapped up shooting a new tv show called "Haunted Eats" and I could have used these for the intro
Hey Guys! I love your stuff, but what does "coming soon", or "upcoming" (like you wrote for the metropolitan pack) exactly mean?
Looks just awesome AK! You're my man! The tombstones are great, that stuff I needed last year for one project, I was too lazy to model high detail one myself.
Hi .. I have created my next FREE 3D MODEL "FLAT TV". The model is done with 3D Studio Max. The ZIP file includes .OBJ and .E3D models only.
You can easily use the original materials from ELEMENT 3D. To change the screen image, create a new HD COMP (1280x720) and define that as your own CUSTOM TEXTURE MAP in your ELEMENT 3D settings .. Feel free to download and use .. Hope you will like it .. Cheers !

Andrew that's awesome! You always managed to keep me tuned to the blog huh? El 3d and all this exciting stuff - great
yesss! how cool, this will also be helpful to some who may be working with element and are still finishing their 2 min short films for the Film Riot halloween challenge...
Free?! WTF, I'd pay for it, even if it were $75. I don't mind supporting a group of people who have made my work a success. <3

Nice and the price is right. I have to ask...any update on the building pack? Do you have a general idea when it will be released?
Andrew, when will we see this tutorial?

After the last event, I realized that a little discouraged you, am I right?

Hay Andrew its looking good got some nice candles there very romantic.. but hay I was wondering what's happened to the blog show last entry was in 2011! Maybe an inspirational montage video to help with my study I dunno. But you spend so much time slacking off making beneficial free tutorials and models when you could be making stuff for the blog show. love what you do keep it up.
