Best Of

Primal Blade

I've just really wanted to try my hand at this type of creating models and texturing them for a very long time. It turned out to be quite difficult, especially regarding materials. I think that it was a good experience.
Please critique my work! I'd appreciate suggestions not only on what could be improved, but also, ideally, a possible path to that improvement.

That makes me feel quite a bit better, thank you

I'll do my best but stressing really is only going to make things worse now that I realize

Re: Sketchbook: Zetheros

The Automaton race is baked and in engine. It's the last race I'll create for now, excluding a secret sixth race planned that'll be revealed in a DLC or expansion far in the future. Future plans are a bunch of minor improvements across all races, defect check all races for baking issues, and take these base meshes to the next level by actually painting them in Substance; at the moment they only have Zbrush polypaint vertex colour. Afterwards - basic locomotion animation tree in UE5 & FACS facial animation system.

Top grill was quite hard to make. However it was enjoyable.

Re: AI Art, Good or Bad? A (hopefully) nuanced take on the subject.

RE: Using AI for feedback.

Writing feedback is it's own valuable art form and can also greatly help the person writing it. It helps you better understand how to articulate the "why" behind things and better train your eye. Some of the strongest periods of artistic growth I've had were when I was giving a ton of feedback to people here on Polycount. It's also a job that is becoming more common with people needing to give feedback to external vendors.

I think by offloading that sort of thing to AI it does yourself and the artistic community a huge disservice.

Looking for 3D artists / CG architects to create 3D models from Autocad files.

We are looking for freelance artists / CG architects to create low/mid poly meshes of architectural interiors. Models will be used in Unity, so we expect meshes to be optimized for gaming (not high poly archviz).

We would provide Autocad plans for reference. In this post we are only interested in walls, windows, structure, etc. No need for furniture.

If interested contact us at proveedores@xrs.studio

Re: Xenomite-X (The apex predator of WAR)

Hey everyone! 👋

I’ve just started working on the texturing for my major project and wanted to share a WIP first draft to get some early impressions.

This is still very much in progress, so please excuse the unfinished areas, especially the rear hydraulics, which I haven’t started yet. The front hydraulics are a good example of the look I’m aiming for across the entire mech: slightly weathered, grounded in realism, with some subtle grime and wear in the crevices.

Would LOVE to hear any feedback you might have, about materials, color balance, roughness values, or anything that feels off.

Crits are very welcome and appreciated! 🙏

Thanks in advance—I’ll be updating this thread as I refine things!
