Apache AH64_a - Texturing

Guilherme_rambelli

Hello everybody, I'm the same guy modeling the Halo Environment,

http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=108565

I will be posting some progress from the Texture that I will paint for my Helicopter, I will be working in that project besides the Halo Environment because I have to finish some texture and set up the shaders until the end of next week, to turn as a Final project for my "Texturing and Shader" course so probably I will be posting fewer WIP from the Halo project once I done with the Apache,I will be updating the Halo Environment 2 times more than I usually do.

Today night I will upload few pictures already, thx everybody!

Time to work!

Whats up everybody, I just finished the Uving the first Material, I will be splitting the Model in 2 or 3 different materials (probably 2) in order to keep the quality in and to have a better management of the textures.
I used Maya tool to Uv that part. I will be using Maya for everything else, and maybe if I got some difficulty opening some part I'll use "UvLayout".

Thanx for coming, if somebody have some question about uv, I'll be happy to help, if I know something about, off course xD
thx for coming!

pack the uv shells tighter and fill the holes, man! You're wasting a lot of your uv space.

Very nice modelling and good UV layout.

Is this for a game asset? If so then I think there is possibly too much detail modeled onto the rotors that could be achieved with some normal maps. I would say that 200k polys is quite high, unless the player can get very, very close to areas.

That aside, it's a great model and I'm looking forward to the texturing

thanks for that dude, Yes I will definetely bake some info in a normal map, its actually for my Portifolio, But will be great to have a asset ready for runs into an Engine.
thank you!

Good night everybody =D

Today I'm updating a texture that I Started painting 4 hours ago, 2 hours was to figure out how to work with Body paint 3D xD, but now It's looking more friendly.

I'm exporting screen shots from Body Paint and making the over painting in photoshop, than after done with the over painting you bring the screen shot back to body paint and bake the painting to your UV, is really cool, I think that way I can be more precisely with details.

Thank you for coming =D

I will be posting more stuff soon, and also will spend some time this weekend on my Halo scene. I'm a little late with my posts because I'm also freelancing.

Thank you Guys good night =D

Screen shoot that I painted over:



Paint over baked on my UV:



Good night Guys.
if somebody have interest in learning Body Paint, I can streaming my wip tomorrow.
thx for coming =D

Guilherme_rambelli

I have to agree with toolpaddz here, you should really redo the UV map for this one, right now theres WAY to much space wasted and youre going to do a lot of detail there.

How its coming out:



Thank you Guys =D

Guilherme_rambelli

Good night everybody =D
Today I'm posting a picture showing how the texture is so far, I will be working a little bit more in the little pieces, than after that start painting some details in Bodypaint, I will be using BP3D to paint some scratches and imperfections crossing 2 or even 3 different materials.

THakn you =D

that is how it looks so far:





_diffuse 2 blocked out, with noise effect and AO baked in maya and blended as a multiply layer with 50% opacity.




Thakn you guys, good night =D

I Got the process how to bake textures from a high poly mesh, to a low poly one, I will be showing it after "retopo" that mesh, but what i can tell is the process is even simpler tahn bake normals =D

Good night, thx for coming!

Guilherme_rambelli

The last update of the night guys =D
