Bullseye set

dzibarik

I've decided to finish this - http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=139089

Right now it still looks horrible but I'm hellbent on finishing it. Right now I'm working on low poly for hard-surface part. The bull needs more work.

making low poly

doesn't look horrible at all man, keep it up! Haven't seen many crossbows in here or in the comp before so good job at having a crack at something different.

Thiss crossbow has become one of the winners - http://www.polycount.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2149458&postcount=34

I'm currently doing some test bakes and puting materials to see what needs to be fixed. Currently there is A LOT TO DO.

dzibarik

low poly is done. now to final unwrapping, baking and tweaking.

This is looking pretty nice so far, I like that you've kept the functional form of the crossbow too. Love the idea of the bulls head, any ideas yet on how it's going to look stylistically?

dzibarik

ooooh. I honestly don't know yet. I'll see how it goes, I'll probably put some ornament there but my mind keeps going into fantasy direction so I need to discipline it a bit.

My bakes sucked so I had to redo low poly in some places and redo some uvs. Still not satisfied with what's coming from this, I'm in the most difficult phase of the project when I notice only things that suck and I can't get from technical phase to actual texturing. Argh.

dzibarik

Experimented with texturing a bit.

texturing the crannequin. WIP in Substance Designer with some stuff done in Photoshop.

dzibarik

still going, still a lot to fix and do

dzibarik

too bright but getting there

Dylan Brady

looking good! yeah I would say darken the textures a bit

dzibarik

yes, definitely needed it

I think I will be done with this today and upload to Workshop for further revisions based on people's feedback.

Should have done it sooner, I thought that a submission is final and can't be changed.

Its a cool design but it lacks a little bit of contrast. The wood and the metal all seem to share the same,flat tone and it sorta blends together. At a distance you will lose alot of the details. I think darkening the color of the metal and raising the saturation of the wood as well would help give it some contrast.

dzibarik

@JO420 thanks, I'll give it more contrast. Metal needs more work anyway.

dzibarik

this goes to Workshop

Need to make a proper package for the heavy variant.
