Environment Critique
polycounter lvl 3
Hi there!!
First of all, I wasn't sure about the thread title because I would like to include also some of my character works but I'm really focused on environment
To introduce myself. I'm a Spanish guy studying the 3D computer games design MSC at Stafford University.
I really want to improve my portfolio and I was kind of scared about uploading my works here and ask help but I realized that there are a lot of talented people here and it would be really helpful to get some Critiques and feedback.
The first project I want to show you is a diorama but I really wanted to focus at the main element, the column
It has a diffuse, normal and specular map of 2024x2024. I had a lot of trouble when I bake the high poly model and I really lost a lot of detail of the high poly one... Also I should improve the presentation but I dont know what kind of things
The second project is a modular building I did almost a year ago. It was based on modularity and I think that part was okey, but I'm not happy with texturing and again the presentation.
The third project is a Hand painted building I did 2 weeks ago in order to learn a little bit of hand painted textures. Although I didn't use zbrush and the textures were made without a base texture.
Some of the feedback I got from my awesome teacher is that I need more height at the tiles and more brick variation. Also some geometry at the roof wouldn't hurt.
And finally this project (that I know is not environment) but I also wanted to include it
I think I lose a lot of details when baking the high poly model to de low poly one. I use xnormal for it. I can post any normal map in case it helps to see if its a lighting/presentation problem or a baking problem.
Thanks a lot!!
