Tank IS-3

vberd · May 2015

Hi guys

I had finished part of my project "Tank IS-3". This project I create using PBR (albedo+metalness+gloss+and normal)

at first time I started with a machine gun DShK ( https://sketchfab.com/models/a67d7b7ba4a8446f886f17790c07a020 ), but after I finished it I saw some "lowpoly" places, and I will correct it later

then I started to make a turret, and completed it one week ago

At this time I work with base of tank and in near future I can show result

Looking cool! intrigued to see the rest.

I have finished part of tank's base in max

the next stage is the finalization of the front and back to the tank, and then sending all it in zbrush

here are few screenshots... I will have done all hipoly and probably lowpoly in a few weeks, and it will be look more interesting

I use WeldingBrush.ZBP. Long time ago I found it on one site, and dont remember where...

try this link (my google drive)

sweet thank you

Nice detail!

Hi everyone. I have finished hipoly. And next stage is retopo... (on the pictures you can see few bugs, it because I had done quickly decimation for screenshots)

skyline5gtr · Jun 2015

looking awesome your putting a lot of effort and time into each weld point and its paying off

hi everyone

I have started bake normal map and in the near future I show good result, but now you can see next pictures. pls write more comments;) it really help me with process

looks really good. love those little details

vberd · Jul 2015

hi everyone )

I finished baking normal map... all of the elements are unique in the pictures

vberd · Aug 2015

few new pictures

If you don't have a poly count restraint, I might suggest a little more bevel on the low poly for the sharp edges, especially around the beak. Those sharp edges don't really help convey the thickness of the spaced armour. That's going to require another bake tho

Are you painting in Substance Painter? It looks really good!

vberd · Aug 2015

thanks for reply, I'll think about "bevel" on some parts of the tank
I am using 3d coat + Photoshop

Zi0 · Aug 2015

Nice stuff so far, wonder how it will look when its done.

vberd · Sep 2015

oh, I see the finish line, but does not finish...

Its still a long way to finish this :P
+ for not shiny scratches (but some parts still needs to be more rough)
I would add more noise to the normal map (at least to the turret), object you've sculpted look good but the imperfections are too subtle to be visible in the finished product/ so i would do that with substance painter or ndo
Lamp material is not good enough, it looks like photo projected just on albedo. I dont know what do you use for texturing but substance painter would give you a nice advantege of creating multiple materials fast
- fenders, water/fuel/oil tanks and metal for gun are made from different materials than steel used for hull and turret, for now all material look similar
You haven't worked on tracks yet? they look completely different on a real tanks

thats a nice ref, if you want some more texture refs or crits you can join polycount slack and ask me there
