Hi guys, long time ago ...

News stuffs on a Saint Seiya project. All screenshots are in viewport. Mesh need vertex color adjustement and d

Actually we try to have the same shader on Ued. Not easy.

Next step -> modeling the rest of the guardian body and make a small playable scene. If you have an idea to make a good shader ( for an armor ), do not hesitate to contact me.

Looking pretty good so far.
Got any character models yet?

BeserK · Nov 2009

Love that style man, looking great!
What kind of game is this going to be?

crashoveride · Nov 2009

Scyfon : not yet, just the first image ( top of a guardian's body ). But stay tuned

Beserk : probably an action / rpg. We hope to have a quality render like Naruto ( PS3 ), a depth of field like Assassin's Creed and a graphic quality like Saint Seiya - lost canvas.

It's gonna be a amator's game, not in a commercial goal.

Thx for the replies

how do you get that sort of cell shading in maya?

crashoveride · Nov 2009

In max in this case ^^ but on the first image, it's a similar's TF2 shader with a hard "ramp" texture. 3 ramps on it. Maybe to make a similar render, you can use this one and tweak it.

I don't if it's possible to have this effect on maya viewport, but in 3dsmax, it's a pretty light effect to display, don't worry. A basic "hard" shading texture + normal map / spec and shader's effects.

Actually, there's no shader on the pegasus box, still on Wip.

on the chest piece, i'm curious to know what parts of that is the cel shading and what parts are in the texture, could you post flats?

crashoveride · Nov 2009

Maybe it's more clear like that :

The wire is pretty uggly but obligatory to have a logical shading with the toon shader.

Exclarion · Nov 2009

Wow, Im going to keep an eye on this. huge Saint Seiya fan, good luck.

After several weeks, I am always on it (~#]^~#^^ job takes me all my time).

The neck is not textured, next step ... the rest of the body.

Im working on a project atm that requires this,
I just made a ramp shader, based color on brightness.
and another ramp shader with the incandescence ramp based on viewing angle.
multiply these two and have the output go into the ambient color of your final output shader. this way you can still have specular, normals, and whatnot, but still get a good toon.
can anybody understand this???

and btw: this model is pure awesomeness!
sorry to spam your thread:poly136:

Edit: just realized that post is over a month old Doh!
glad you are still working on it crash!

i think the colors on his sash and belt are really too close to the color of his tunic.

Hi guys, here's an embellishment object, hope you like it

( Just a flat diffuse in viewport - no spec. no normal map )

Next step, zodiacal clock texturing ^^
