Luger

Sir Apple · Mar 2013

Hi polycount.

This is my first real time posting work here at your great forums

I recently finished this Luger for part of my portfolio.

I learned quite a bit with this project. My main focus was to create a good hipoly model that would produce a solid bake.

2048x2048
-Diffuse
-Specular
-Normal

6,928 triangles

Comments and crits are very welcome!

Thank you for looking,

nice work!
i would change the way you present it though, the lights arent doing the textures any favors.
you should also show off the high poly

Thanks man.

How would you advise setting up the lighting? I have a lot of troubles with this. I have no problems with re-rendering if its really hurting the texture that badly. Its rendered in marmoset, forgot to mention that

Here is images of the hipoly and the bake. But note, these images are from before I added the extra detail into the normal map. I wasn't planning on showing them, so I do not have anything better prepared! $:\$

what a clean bake you got there, my bakes are always messed up. I would change the lighting setting on the presentation, imagine if the models looks really solid with this poor lighting settings how it would look with a god light setup!

Thank you for your feedback,

Is this any better?

the lower part of the gun is way to dark, id put one of the two frontal lights one up and one down, giving less intensity to the lower light
