Justin Meisse

klamp

Lookin forward to this!

adam

Haha, thanks. I've started to block out the runner and will post once his mesh is complete.

The doodles are shit, but I wanted to quickly hash out a composition idea.

adam

Small update before bed. Dropped him in to Sketchfab for shits & giggles.

I just wanted to update my thread with a small change in direction & style.

"Canabalt Route Zero" is the new name for my diorama.

It really really does.

Lazerus Reborn

Excellent work here, ummmmf that style

To be clear: The last 3 images are not my artwork. They're screenshots from Kentucky Route Zero. They'll be used as reference going forward. I should have mentioned that when in posted them but was in a hurry. D'oh.

No excuses! keep making the oozing style!!!

This is pretty awesome. Your guy looks great and has an excellent silhouette. I'll be watching this, as it looks very stylish. Not to jump on the bandwagon or anything

adam

Modeled some props over lunch.

deadpixl

Awesome decision. I love the art direction of Kentucky Route Zero! and you're 3d interpretation is awesome.

Spacey

Great stuff so far adam!

Thanks homie.

Norron

Adding Kentucky Route Zero to this is going to be fantastic. Can't wait to see how you're going to do textures.

LuCh!

I'm looking forward to see how you create the art style of Kentucky Route Zero in 3D,
the dude looks really good btw!
are you gonna use a lot of colors or keep it greu blueish? but with some tints of color like the guy's tie?

adam

Kentucky Route Zero *IS* 3D.:poly124:

I probably won't be doing textures.

JamesArk

Loving the solid colour look.

adam

Small update today. I finished the props and did a very quick pass on the composition of the main scene.

What I still need to do:

-Finish the main scene (cut in windows on the building, add in the giant ship)
-Pose the runner
-Colour/texture pass
-Finalize scene composition
-Faked lighting technique
-Background

glenatron

VERY dynamic already! So in regards to the texture pass, is this purely to paint in some ao/lighting to make the scene more readable?
I can see this scene being ridiculously cheap in terms of texture memory

JurassicPerk

OH MY °_° I love how the scene looks now that you've added the birds!

AzzaMat

Those BIRDS!

a3sthesia

i don't even... i mean look at the....and all of those.....how did you even....i just....it's....

nope. can't put some proper sentences together. I'm getting a "wow", an "amazing", several "holy cows" and a "far out."

So cool, Adam. Just - so - cool.

adam

Small update tonight. Did a quick pass on his pose. There's still lots to do on his pose as it was very quick & dirty, but this shows the intention.

adam

This is a good indication of what the final composition will be like in Sketchfab:

I still need to think of a way to do the lighting and background work that I'd like to do. I think Sketchfab is getting hung up on the materials when I export and making it hard to have more than 5 or 6 in the same upload.

Mimiws

this is looking good!

adam

Thanks

Another small update this afternoon. I'm really not sure what I'll do about the lighting. I was hoping to have some high contrast lighting, as seen in the Kentucky Route Zero references. Right now my only influence from it I've been able to run with is silhouette.

[SKETCHFAB]fe7e5751da1247a8a9b5051e40eff1b0[/SKETCHFAB]

My idea was to cast a light in 3DS Max and cut around where it shadows/doesn't shadow and use emissive materials to fake shadow/light. Hmm.

hopgood

I really love the unique way you have taken to displaying this diorama, great work!

fanaya2001

amazing

Norron

Oh man that's cool. I had a lot of fun swiveling around there finding sweet looking compositions.

AimBiZ

Epic composition man. One of my favorites already. Some lighting would be in order to solve some readability issues. Maybe just some sparse highlight like the ship has in your reference. Could probably work for the other props as well.

brenly

lovely composition

Mimiws

gotta love this one! fave and subscribed

Yeah, I might go through with a version of the blue material I'm using on the roof objects that is slightly lighter than the current one, and use that as an accent to help a few things pop out.

adam

A small update tonight. I've done a quick pass on "lighting".

Canabalt Tips & Tricks


I don't want to over-Canabalt all of you, but bear with me as I get this out of my system. Below are a few items, some of them obvious, that might make the game a little easier for you.

Going too fast? Run into a box. The game takes longer, but going slower makes it a lot easier.
Tapping the screen more lightly results in a lower jump.
You can play the game using your own music. If you have a song playing when you launch the app, it will lay the sound effects over that. If you are a serious nerd about it, you could have a song that is silent so you can focus on the sounds of the game.
