How can I achieve this textured super low poly look in Maya?
polycounter lvl 4
I'm trying to achieve this effect in Maya:
I'm able to model the triangulated, hard-edged, subjects but I'm having trouble with the shaders and lighting.
A few specific questions:
How can I achieve the hard edged shadows without an overly intense light?
Is there a way to achieve this textured paper look without resorting to photoshop?
Are there any general tips you might have for someone who's exploring this style?

As for the paper pattern: To me it appears to be uniform across the entire picture, suggesting that this is actually a post-effect and not something in the material. (If it was in the diffuse, or on a detail map, we would see perspective distortion).

Maybe that helps. There also some camera filter on your image..
But yes - as deadly said - we need some more infomations.
I'm working on a study of the style in Maya using this character and a similar landscape as found in the above photo:
Right. I guess post works for now. I attempted a high res texture in the diffuse and it was lacking sharpness. Any other ideas? Perhaps something with the camera?
