recent z brush stuff, really enjoying making sculpts in the software so far or taking models from maya in for a high poly pass.

Spunkyoo, that's awesome man. Love it so much

Kringlan · Mar 2016

Made this scene and put my arcade in it. Took 28 hours to render with Cycles on my quad core i5. Will make real time assets from all models.

Spunkyoo · Mar 2016

@Pshyco Thanks

aniceto · Mar 2016

still trying to get this guy done before I die of old age.

You could have better results in UE4 and CryEngine both in less than 28 hours, even including downloading both engines and building the scene and lighting from scratch.

Does it really look that bad? Volumetrics and particles takes a long time to render with path tracing on the cpu. Could've taken longer with better quality, and there's four million hairs in the carpet as well, not casting shadows though.

It doesn't look bad, it's just a matter of perspective. You can save a lot of time by replacing volumetrics with fake cones of light (see my pics here - https://www.artstation.com/artwork/WPyxJ) and do hairs on a carpet with parallax occlusion if you're not doing closeups. "Fake it until you make it" is the most important principle, especially if you want to do games or any other realtime gfx. Anyway, look at what Koola does in realtime with UE4 -

I'm working on a robot/mech based on a concept by Ariel Perez. I think I might want to adjust the roughness a little before moving forward.

Bubblez · Mar 2016

Long time no update for this guy. But Im still working on it. I actually managed to get his polycount down a bit more but have things looking better….I dont know how, fucking magic. As it currently stands, everything is 44267, but I still have to add the wires for the Rockband Guitar and the Nintendo Zapper.

You can see more HERE, or if you'd like to give some input.

Bubblez · Mar 2016

First time working with Quixel 2.0. I did a 24 hour block of just straight work to get comfortable with it. Bugs aside, I love the program. It was really fun to dive into.

Hope you all like what I've got!

The whole reason I went back was because someone wanted to animate him, so I fixed him up. He's got new and better anatomy then before.

I finally posed him, and now I can say he is "Finished". Might still tweek some stuff, like the gold.

Yep, correct

Wanted to try create scene based on actual place and also if I can use custom HDRI map in Unreal Engine. Mostly time I have no idea what am I doing, but it's fun!

Edgar T · Mar 2016

Hi guys, just a xpost from my The Beast entry process... Almost finished with high... so time to make some planning about materials and have some fun on substance designer

Cheers!

Are the roof tiles all geo? Tessellated? The whole thing looks phenomenal, really inspiring.

Thanks dude! The roof material is using a Parallax Occlusion mapping shader with a snow up vector on it
