Faking transparency utilizing reflections.
I'm not sure if this is an Unreal question, or just a shader question in general. I basically want to fake transparency by showing the reflections from the opposite side of the model. My thought is that a sort of inverted normal would render the inverted reflections captured by the reflection actors. For specific reasons I… -
Re: Sketchbook: KROKUS
I have spend the last week working on my first environment scene. It was a lot of fun and i got to try quite a few things i have never done before. Although im not happy with the end result it was good practice and I feel like I now know quite a few things that i will do differently next time I do something similar. This… -
Re: The Monthly CHARACTER ART Challenge | April 2016
Hey DANAOSC, thanks! Boots are difficult, I think because the foot is a difficult shape. I drew polys on the base form of the figure I sent back to max from ZBrush as a template (decimated) using polydraw. The boots were half the polycount you see below. I used the shell modifier to give the poly planes thickness and then… -
Re: Need your feedback
I want to learn to make likenesses because triple A 3d artist surely know how to make them easily, so If I want to have the triple A level I surely need that level of skill... Also it strengthen your observation muscle and I also believe it's one of the most difficult thing to do in modeling, so if I am able to do that, a… -
Re: XFormer for Max
@roosterMAP, It could be done the way you say, just click Apply and the changes are applied. It would in fact be much easier to develop the tool that way and avoid the previewing step. However, some times the topology of the object or its rotation makes it very hard for the artist to correctly visualize the alignment, and… -
Re: Why is the game industry model broken?
I think a good question to ask then is 'how many people do you need?' Is it necessary to have 100-200 artists on a project? 38 Studios had about 75 Cintiq's, and given all of them were being used it would lead me to believe that there was about that number of artists on the team. Now this is a company that was being… -
Re: Heroes thread!
i think it's always been obvious that Kensei was still around in present day, and that he was one of the bad guys. that he was adam? not all that obvious. that he kills Mr. Nakamura makes a lot more sense now "i will make you suffer..." Sylar should continue to be bad... while i'm not too big a fan of him being a whiney… -
Re: Fistfighter (for practice)
Nope, the crits on eye socket depth, forehead slope, and the cheeks are all valid in my eyes. They're things I know from drawing, but my lack of skill in 3D means I struggled with laying down the structure I was after. I also appreciate the crits pushing the 3D model towards the concept as that is my goal for this model… -
Re: My first time posting my (bad) art here.
Hey Bram, looks like a fairly good start but you've a long ways to go. I wouldn't mirror the texture of the face, just make use of the unique texture space to make it asymmetrical. You could easily get away with mirroring the eyes, however. Eyes are never pure white and are surprisingly dark. be sure to add a slight shadow… -
Re: Hello...
Did you also do the short animation sequence of Bond? Oh and one point of improvement on the bond would be the ears, as they lack a lot of depth. Otherwise stellar work, just those wireframes kind of seem to fade out just when it becomes interesting. So maybe a still shot where you can see the face detail for example and…
