Re: Overwatch fan made hero
The way her face has been sculpted reads not as sunny, but seasoned and wise. She also doesn't look 15 within the context of the Overwatch universe. Why did you add a prominent nasiolabial fold to her face? Her overall design seems to relegate all the "scifi hardsurface" elements to the wrist device thing, which is in… -
Re: Hand painted in less time?
If you want it smooth, use the soft brush? Same things that applies to regular painting applies here as well. Start big, go small, from general to specific. Sounds like you're trying to do equal polish over the entire surface which you wouldn't do in a painting where the focal points would get more polish than the rest.… -
Re: Maxivz's Interactive Tools for Max
Always nice to see another maxscripter. As you say you're okay with suggestions, here are a few: if selection.count == 1 and isKindOf $ Editable_poly do -- check if the selection is valid ( local obj = selection[1] polyop.createShape obj #selection name:(uniqueName "Lathe") -- don't assign the same name all the time local… -
Re: Monthly Environment Art Challenge - March & April 2017 (47)
Haven't posted in a while now, busy with school project as well. but here is an update of what I have been working on until now. After the blockout I imported everything into Unreal and started with some basic lighting, I don't really have too much experience with this so its just testing some stuff and tweaking… -
Re: very very strange question :)
With 3dsmax its better to have a bunch of separate objects instead of one object that is a bunch of elements. The reason for that is "adaptive degradation". With it turned on it can degrade the visual appearance of individual objects when the viewport starts to chug, switching the material off, switching to wireframe mode… -
Re: peble's concepts thread
really neat idea with the bugna! I'm wondering if those elements would do better "suggesting" bug rather than look exactly like bugs. as in, the last horn you did (nice design and idea btw) should still have some of pugna's style of horn (similar to a goat) in surface but have SOME bug elements. Think of it more like his… -
Re: Specular issues with baked lighting
that's what i did, I rotated all my pieces in max, merged them, welded verts, fixed smoothing groups, reset xforms and then exported as a single mesh into udk. and thats my result. I just did a test to look at the rotated uv's issue. here you can see i have assigned a texture with arrows all pointing in one direction. in… -
Re: Stylized Swamp Hut Diorama
/sigh. I'm such a lurker on these boards anymore. Anyway, This looks pretty cool man. But for presentation purposes, you should either set up a closer shot to demonstrate the composition in terms of contrast OR enhance your lighting. I think it would work from a closer angle, but in the diorama view, the lighting is… -

Re: Need advice on low-poly hand painted model (WoW inspired)
Tons better. Get comfortable getting dark, because it provides contrast to what is in the light. Think of it as "It's not obvious until you make it REALLY obvious." Now get real reference of actual male human bodies (preferrably figure drawing models) and proportionally place where your muscle groups should be. What would…
