Finished this finally.

ORIGINAL POST:

Been working on this Star Wars inspired bad boy for the Bizon. Main reference used was the Star Destroyer ( http://img.lum.dolimg.com/v1/images/Star-Destroyer_ab6b94bb.jpeg ), though I've put my own touches on the style. Still need to finish the detail pass, polish a handful of areas up and possibly re-introduce a bit more rest for the eye.

Finished the normal map pass today, gonna redo the textures now that the normals are a bit cleaner and consistent on both sides.

You just have to transfer the normals into albedo/diffuse, sort of like an AO.

You're gonna make us all look bad! Fantastic work as always dude. You're legitimately an inspiration for me.

Yeah I use the normals as intermediary maps to help me create the textures. Barely any Photoshop work involved

Almost done:

Ok, this looks amazing. Question, how do you convert a normal map to albedo?

Sadly you can't use them straight up, like I mentioned previously I only use them in the process of creating the final diffuse texture. You can only input a diffuse texture with some finish types in the game having an extra map in the alpha channel (depending on the finish type it functions either as a gloss map or as a wear influence mask).

I use it to create curvature maps, detail AO and to bake lighting in 3ds Max.
