yeah, that's what i thought. but the logic doesn't make sense. a professional, digital artist job is not to work from memory. so if you are having trouble achieving the quality of art that you want, try asking for help. Check out the 3d/2d showcase sections. That's what they are there for. Just get involved. If you become…
Heads up for future reference this would probably go into technical talk, not 3D showcase. After you reset the Maya tool make sure the scale is set to world, not component or object. Maya still scales even if its set to that but error notice will pop up. Worse case scenario, just increment save > close out > reopen. Should…
Words can't describe how amazing this movie is. The story was perfect. There wasn't a single moment where I was anything less than glued to the screen. Definitely their most mature story so far in terms of subject matter. Pixar are getting really good at crafting stories that appeal to all ages, and they are not afraid of…
Seems like texture compression to me. If you consider that you have diffuse, spec, normal AND lightmap compression working together those squares are not that bad :) If you want to showcase your asset use realtime lights, modeling app viewport or something like marmoset toolbag. You could also overlay subtle detail…
looking pretty neat man look what i found http://ketka.deviantart.com/art/quot-Witchblade-quot-95777241 i think u should add some lose parts of the armor like in her left arm and leg i know it kinda makes the model not efficient in terms of actual use in animation but i think its pretty good for showcasing . also it makes…
The concept art looks nice... tried to listen to the talk and just lost interest in their whole concept. I dunno if they just think they are doing ground breaking stuff... but all of this has been done before... game that comes to mind right away is Phantasy Star Online. But anyways.. just seems kinda generic. The art…
Thanks again. I heard we get to choose which Game Engine we want to use for the end of year assignment, so with a bit of luck our team will go for UDK. Thanks for the link, I might give it a whirl some time and see if I can start showcasing my solo work within the UDK at some point. Even if its the stuff I do after the…
You shoulld post in the 3d showcase section and ask for specific advice. I think it helps to have a specific learning goal you want to achieve from each model. So for the female maybe you want to say, "I want to achieve believable proportions and have her look attractive." And for the robot, " I want to focus on shape…
Sry to bring this up again but could you take a look at my status as well? I tried posting in the waywo few days ago and it didn't happen. It's weird and annoying since it works fine on one sub forum and not on another. (technical doesn't always work for example, 3d art and showcase - no problem) I know this is not your…
No its for only a scene in Maya that I need to make a camera pass through off and showcase the lighting and textures of the scene. You mentioned tile-able textures so I can do it in substance painter/designer and use it as a texture for my floor? Foliage system like ivy generator? I look up into it seems like its mostly…
