i did this primarily because I'm going to need it at work on monday but it's a neat enough trick that it's worth sharing here generally speaking I don't do a lot with fx-maps. most things can be done better in pixel processors if you apply enough maths but in this instance I will need to take advantage of their inherent…
That was because I did not unwrap the sphere perfectly, I did not spend the time to make the rings equidistant from eachother, so the texture is a little unevenly displayed (and stretched at the center rings). here's a map of mars with equidistant rings applied via this method: please, do find any creases, seams or…
'budget conscious' 'getting back into racing sims' did you think that through? :D also DayZ - because no other game gives me that many ways to ruin my friend's evening
Thanks for your input, this is not the first time modelling for me (im just new to digital 3d), I went to a traditional woodcarving school and made quite a lot of anatomy sculptures as well as nude drawings with live models.

@baraa_odeh - I couldn't resist making a little paintover. The big takeaway is that you can add color balance by using sunlight as your warm contrast and your shadows being the cool counter balance.

@TomGT I did change the eyes as a lot of people felt the more natural eyes didn't really fit with the character, which in a way I agree. But I still think I'm going to miss them, they felt kind of nice haha! @lotet Hahaha yah I gotta reword the exact placement and make it fit better with the hair. I keep doing touch up in…
@MBauer17 Sorry I couldn't resist doing a little paintover: Mostly it's 1. Raising the landscape in the back to add a background 2. Adding complimentary color flowers for a foreground 3. Moving sun into the frame for more dramatic lighting. Just add a some foreground leaf/insect particles to create a bit of motion and…

For 2 years in my absence i was studying the effects of "food", on the body (cause i have my own issues i wanted to fix and i did) i found out a lot about what certain foods do to my body. Idk if it does the same thing for everyone but, any aches and pains are…
