Decals vs 2nd UV Channel?
I have a train that Im texturing. Im using a trim sheet that I will probably vertex paint with another dirtier/worn version of the same trim sheet, but for dirt leaks, Im deciding on using decals or adding in a 2nd UV channel. Any advice here on what would be best? Also, should I make this train in modular pieces, or does… -
Re: What is causing / how can i avoid this baking error?
Hi! Looking at the last screenshot, I'm wondering why the highpoly is not smooth-shaded? To ensure it's not related to something else, you could isolate the part showing the issue, see if it persists. That normal map looks to me like there's is overlapping geometry or UVs going on? Ideally share meshes (isolated elements… -
Re: 3DS Max: UV Script to weld Overlapping vertices.
It can easily be done as a script (or at least synchronizing the vert positions can be). The problem is processing the data quickly. Maxscript is not a fast language, and iterating over and matching the positions of thousands / tens of thousands of vertices could take a long time. Anyhow, here's a simple/unoptimized script… -
Re: [WIP] Teapot spirit - Character Art
Good point! I'll try to make it clearer that the spirits are honey. I might be able to achieve the look by making it more transparent and redder, and also make it look like it has trapped bubbles inside, that would make it clear it's very viscous. If all else fails, i'll add honeycombs as suggested! The hair is meant to be… -
3ds Max+Vray simple yet difficult- how to prevent an object from casting shadows ONLY on itself?
3ds max, vray. How can i prevent "self-shadowing" of an object? That means how to prevent an object from casting shadow ONLY on itself, but STILL casting his shadow on other object- no "self shadow" on the object? Is there a way? (i can only think of object properties and uncheck "cast shadow", that prevents the object… -
Re: What about bringing back the Brawl Contest?
Feels bad this did not happen, and i see some people have been "removed" who were also excited, 5 years i guess its NOT going to happen then. If you do decide to do it you should be hyping it up before hand like 1 month before so anyone "from the ol'den'days" can see the info eventually and NOT miss out. //i was looking… -
Re: Looking for a list of good, accredated collage
I haven't read the thread, so I apologize if most of this was already covered. I'll condense (yeah this is condensed) what other similar threads have covered. That could be a problem if you're planning on making them. I'm self taught, as are most of the people in the industry already. This is my second career and I enjoy… -
Re: "El Agave" Mexican Village - UE4
Looks like the portfolio is here https://garmn.artstation.com/ although without this. Personally I like this piece, but people update and move on, makes sense. -

Re: Likes on artstation are important. Let's be honest.
For design there are 3d concept designers as well that works freelance like Vitaly Bulgarov, Alex Senechal and Mario from Elementza just to cite someone. So you don't necessarily needs to be a 2d artist ( illustrator, concept artists or whatever ) to work as a designer. Also from what i see daily on the net 8 out of 10 2d…
