A Dumpster!

SaferDan · Feb 2010

I know dumpsters are over done but i couldnt not make one!

some crits on the textures would be nice, i know the rust isnt working and suggestions to fix it would be awesome

The parts where the arms of the truck pick up the dumpster look a bit too large.

Can't really comment on the textures as your renders are very dark, get some light on it.

The texture looks pretty nice to me. But the rust, realisticly i find that when i think of a dumpster off the top of my head; it would be found coming from the rim/mouth of the dumpster rather than in the middle. Maybe a lighter blue around the rim with abit of rust in sharp clumps. You could possibly include some stickers.

@Ben Apuna - yeah thinking about it they do ill fix them thanks!

@SilentEarth - thanks ill try it up there and see what it looks like

The place where the dumpster is supposed to be lifted looks too thin on the outside, and get some light in your renders

If you embed your images as you did in your first post it's much likelier that peoples actually watch them.

Do you use a specular- and/ or normal map?

SaferDan · Feb 2010

I was gonna embed them again but i didnt want to clog up the thread!

and no there isnt either just trying to get a good diffuse first!

I often get told my monitor is a tad too bright, but this is a dark asset, for sure... Even I can't make it out that well.

SaferDan · Feb 2010

better?

Textures look nice, the only thing that is bringing it down imo is those two black stripes on the front and the lack of any wheels.

I'd change the graffiti to be more of those tags that are quick to do with a marker or a stencil.

SaferDan · Feb 2010

@GCMP - those strips are actually indents on the model

@Soft_hands - yeah your right ill sort that out

Ok I know what they are supposed to be but as they are pure black they look like solid black stripes. They need a light side and a dark side with a gradient inbetween.

ahh i see sorry man i understand what you mean now, ill fix that too!
