Wizard 3D character

Hello everyone, I would like to share with you my new 3D model. Maybe some of you can recognize his backpack that I posted back in the day. Now I have finally finished the rest of the character. Feel free to check it out. More videos and pictures under this link: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/V2qvbn

Re: Normal Map Problem

looks to me like you do not have UV splits where you have hard edges.

Re: Sketchbook: Kyra Booth

This looks AMAZING! I absolutely love the 3d rock texture on the pillar. It turned out really amazing, I am also really impressed with the cups stacked up, the form ready really well and the shaders on them turned out great.

Re: What are best AIs for game art? Both for scripting and content creating?

gnoop said:

thomasp I am talking more about what may help artists, not replace them .

Well yeah I get that - I'm just saying there don't seem to be tools aimed at us, the goal of the tech bros is much loftier than to provide a mere automation here or there for stuff we already use.

These tools and the associated cost are also in flux so much - where do you settle on seriously developing software around it if you are a software dev from our world, not the silly-con valley. If even Adobe et al can't come up with anything better than slapping some simple image-genAI onto their product that nobody really needs then it'll probably shake out like @poopipe said - after the stock market crash.

" I am getting so accustomed to chatGPT I am not sure I would be able to work without it later when it sure will have to cover its losses and charge people for real money /cancel cheap subscription. "

That's bad. A generation of people who can't think for themselves. But that's what they want and here we are.

Re: iHDRI.COM - Your Free Source for HDRI Skies

Hey everyone,
Some of you might still remember iHDRI.com, my old website that offered free CC0 HDRI maps for Toolbag, Unreal, Blender, Unity, V-Ray and other 3D tools.
Unfortunately, the domain was hacked and completely taken over a while back, so it’s no longer under my control and no official HDRIs are distributed through it anymore.

The good news:
Everything is now rebuilt, better and more secure on CGEES.COM

Free, hand-crafted HDRI maps up to 24K
CC0 license (completely free to use)
Brand-new design, faster downloads & like/download counters
Blog with tips and insights on HDRI photography
Hosted on Cloudflare → fast & secure

If you still have any old iHDRI links in your projects or bookmarks:
Please switch over to CGEES.COM this is now the official and only place to get my HDRIs.

Cheers,
Elvis (Creator of iHDRI & CGEES)
