Hey folks, Here I wanna show you a progress with my new personal project. This model will be used in hangar mode. Where player can make some customization for suit and pilot. So Cockpit will be a possible to open and we can look on most of details very close. This model is a part of our independent game. Yeah game about…
When i did the wildwest entry to learn this process, i just made the head straight out from a box/or/sphere but to patch holes i put "fillers" where i knew i was going to get holes, so i thought of it like layers of skin cause i knew if i put no geo there, i'd run into what you ran into, so i learned to do test…
@kanga sorry I was very confused by your message so it took me a little time to record a brief video: https://youtu.be/mpD3m0HoI60 The goal is simply to help you find references that might inspire solutions when you're stuck - the same way you might flip through art books looking for references, but a million times faster.…
Hi! Maybe looking at the wiki-entry you get an idea what optimized UVs can look like. Aside from a maximizing the space, some other aspects I would aim for: - seams along edges where it makes sense, certainly at hard edges (if used to control the lowpolys shading) - UVs straightened and aligned with pixel grid UVs where it…
Hey Polycount, Two years ago, I posted here as a 15-year-old asking for advice on how to grow as a 3D artist. Thanks to the great community and the guidance I received, I’ve made a lot of progress since then. Now at 17, I’ve completed several freelance projects and developed strong skills in: * Game-ready asset creation *…
I’ve been thinking about a simpler, more modern way to manage the flow of 3D content creation, as an alternative to heavier tools like Shotgrid. The idea is a web app that focuses on clarity and ease of use, with features tailored for artists and teams: * Kanban-style board that shows what stage of production each asset is…
https://www.artstation.com/artwork/zxRxGq My goal with this asset was to practice hair creation while exploring a new workflow that balanced control and efficiency. I wanted to place every card manually for precision, but also work quickly and be able to make changes without losing progress—knowing I'd face challenges as I…
Thanks for the wise words, @iansmithartist. I was thinking similar things...often at work the senior artists say "if this technical issue is getting in the way, then try to ignore it and focus on working out the aesthetics first", or something roughly like that, and it tends to work out in a way where I'm not too far off…
I've made some progress over the past few days! Alongside various post-processing changes, I've altered the flag and played around with the fog and tree pitch/yaw. I also talked to Nate Stephens, the Environment Art Lead on God of War, to get more of an insight into how the trees and various floating geometry was…
Yep, i think the biggest problem right now is lack of clarity on material choice. If this is a statue you need to think what would a statue be made from? the likely candidates are metal or rock. In both cases i'd suggest hardening the edges up a bit and getting some nice strong definition in there. in the case of metal,…
