Asset dump for my folio... let the crits roll in!

mr.sin

Hi,
I'm currently working on some stuff for my portfolio and since I got a few together I thought I would threw them in here and see what you guys think, get some crits and so on ^^.

Here we go:










On the left is the low poly, right the high poly:

here's a alien / singularity style plant... it kinda looks like alien-sperm... whatsoever..

Asset-wise they're quite good, all could use some tighter details. Some of the metal bending is too soft and airbrushy, and other high-freq details look a little forced-in. The sperm-ball just call for some wet speculars to really bring out the texture.
For portfolio u should improve the presentation.

Your stuff looks good but you could add some reflectivity to your metallic door. Add an environment map to the material in sandbox and then play around with the reflectivity settings for the metal shader.

mr.sin

thx for tips. I already played around with an environment map but it doesn't really look better... I guess I should change the lighting completely.. maybe that helps

I like those glow ball plants. Really nice touch.

I dont like the scratches on the metal, looks too placed. theres 2 ways i do em. 1 find scratches already done and then overlay it. Or put your brush to 1 choose white, go nuts and then edit it slightly. Play with the opacity and tune it down after. maybe set the erase to 20% and go nuts over it too for fade. good to toss in spec after for shinyness.

I'd also say your metal is too noisy or you got something in the normal that makes it like that.

Other then that your getting there, keep up the good work!

mr.sin

Thx Ack Master for that hint, I will try that ^^.

mr.sin

tweaked the shaders of the door but still looks... not too good, to say the least... -.-

no crits from me cause i sucks with it but the texturing/shaders are pretty good

mr.sin

thank you sir ^^ good to hear!

Texture work is strong I feel, nice models also but you need to shake all the unreal engine info from the images if its portfolio. Its very distracting. Also the repeating wall with rocks at the base has a very strong texture repeat along the bottom edge, take it out and use decals to grime it. Keep at it tho!

mr.sin

Thanks Flava-Fly. Those aren't final images for my folio, just screengrabs to show you guys and get some crits and ideas. So yup, the info stuff of the cryengine flickering around will be removed ^^.

thx and cheers

mr.sin
