You think youre so cool dont you.
SO FUCKING COOL.
you are<3

s6

Not quite floating cat cool, m8.

woot

too damn good at different styles, awesome work.

s6

Thanks WOOT!

Texture wip. Haven't had a ton of time to work on this, But it's fun exploring what is going on with TB2 ^^

Edit: looking at it now, I need to tone some stuff back. Little to harsh ATM.

s6

Texture! Calling it done for now. Any feedback welcome, as its my first full texture set done with physically based shading.

genwu

Damn man. Awesome work!

AlexCatMasterSupreme

Looks good but I want to know what material you wanted for that knob part.

seforin

I told you I wanted a handle door nob, start over.

BARDLER

Dudeeee, can we some flats?

Damn man! Looks incredible awesome! Can we see flats textures ?

s6

Genwu: Thanks man!

ApexBratBlasterOfSourcream: To be honest, I have no idea. Inspiration was taken from my old work door knob, With some license taken on texturing around the brass-ish areas. I'm honestly not sure what the dark wear/coat is/was but it looked neat. Less of an exercise on accuracy, and more of a kid in a sand box figuring out how his limbs work.




(Inspiration: )






Looking at it now, I think i'll add one more pass of Dark build up, Like on the locking twisty. Seems lacking atm.

Bardler & MR. SIG: Thanks guys! And yeah, For sure. Sorry in advance for slow loading times. Imgur/other hosts rape the compression. Cubeupload doesn't, But that means larger files/longer load :


1/2 Size








TeriyakiStyle: I'm gonna go ahead and assume that means this door knob is deliciously sweet, thank you.

Mr Significant

What is this 3rd map: balck and white? Is that gloss map ? Or spec?

s6

Gloss.

In order of "book reading style" (lol?)

Diff, Spec, Gloss, Normals.

Meobyte

Looks very natural.

AlexCatMasterSupreme

Nice.

Thanks man, I did at least 69 assets for the game! I really like your m14 to be honest, I feel like it could use a bit more detail though to really bring out the realism behind it, for example there are spot welds on the bolt connecting it to the receiver and then a few spot welded muzzle breaks on the end of the barrel as well, all and all it looks good but I think that your colors really didn't capture the tone and feel of the weapon, this is due mostly to the fact it was used in brutal wars against innocent people by the us and the fact that such a weapon is colored in red (color of blood) I find this also offensive.

Other than that nice work and I like your doorknob. I think it's interesting that M2 uses regular gloss instead of roughness maps.

Mr Significant

So to get a good looking metal, I have to make a dark diffuse and bright specular? I have to try this!

CougarJo

Wow, great material definition Thanks for the maps!

s6

Mr. Sig: For Physically based rendering, Yes! However, in other engines that logic won't work out quite the same.

CougarJo: Thanks man!

Why is your diffuse of the door knob so dark? Looks great though.

s6

Thanks

The diffuse is dark because working with PBS means you treat the materials your recreating physically accurately. Metals typically don't have much, if any 'Diffuse' or albiedo information. I can't say for certain, but i would assume metal naturally doesn't have much pigment. In comparison to something like dirt, or paint.

Spec and gloss do the majority of the heavy lifting when it comes to color/reflectivness of metals. Materials with more pigment will be more apparent in the Albiedo map. Having really dark values for metal helps to recreate the high contrast quality is has. Bright and reflective where light hits it, and dark where it doesn't.

Brygelsmack

So since you were only working with metals in this case the entire thing is dark, but if you were to have materials like wood, would that appear brighter on the diffuse?

s6

Yes, I believe so. I haven't worked a ton with PBR/PBS so far, but if i were to create wood it would be much brighter in the albiedo, yes.

I might give it a quick test now that you mention it.

s6

Quick test just to see. Not great. Was going for a damaged lacquered wood.

Meh.

Nice! But yeah, what swastika is doing here?

s6

LOL

Er...I was testing...The Gloss refractance bounce lit edge dialation from the....

Yeah. I got nothin. I was just jerking around lol.

More teaking (Thanks to Swizzle).
