Re: Kimber SOC WIP with PBR (need advice)
well, most notably, you have small amounts of wear (which is totally fine btw...) on the metal, but I can't really notice any on the plastic at all, no finger prints, wipe marks, none of it. and I would have to agree about it looking flat. you could overlay your normal map overtop of itself in some areas to give it a… -
Pagani Utopia Steering Wheel | 3D Model
This project showcases a full CGI recreation of the Pagani Utopia steering wheel, modeled, textured and rendered entirely from scratch. The goal was to develop a one to one digital replica of a real world asset, a scenario that often happens in production when the client cannot provide reference models or ready to use… -
Re: I'm tired of 3d modeling and everything that goes with it.
Your portfolio is great! You have made some very cool and highly detailed weapons! =) I have tried making simpler handguns and it is not easy. Your work is very good. But I totally understand what you mean. Many studios want experience, but in order to get experience someone has to let you in. It's this evil circle, it's… -
Re: People with Autism + ADHD innatentive who aren't medicated do you have any advice to be productive?
@pior I am rarely doomscrolling and I don't use Tiktok or watch shorts, I see it as a good thing because I believe these messes up with the brain and I refuse to be part of it. I will keep this in mind what you've said, it makes total sense. Thank you! -
Re: Why outrourcing studio doesnt give creditis to artists?
I work in outsource and have been - mostly - properly credited on the titles I've worked on. I have to assume that initial contracts include that we'll be credited and my studio generally check in with us to confirm out name for the credits. Most AAA games you see have a huge bit kind of half way through the credits where… -
Re: A new mesh painting tool (WIP)
Yea that's true. There are a ton of programs that can do 3D paint (about 20 in total that I know of), but all of them have some very notable limitations and/or are abandoned. I use 3D-Coat because it comes the closest to what I'm looking for in a modern 3D painting app, but it by no means does all of the things I wish it… -
Re: Photo like renders
aside from lighting and materials, one thing about real objects is that they are never quite perfect. like in CG you are usually dealing with mathematically perfect curves, and the total accumulation of all these tiny details is that your eye can tell it's not quite real. So i think it you go through your guitar model and… -
Re: How do I achieve this effect? Dynamic decal paths
this is a fun one. the answer to A_Bs question about the mask borders is yes - applying a more detaild mask is totally possible and not very hard. I did post an example of the maths on here fairly recently The answer to your question depends of what you're trying to achieve in your game. If you need what is basically a 2d… -

Re: Losing Your Artistic Voice to Convenient Asset Packs
The main drawback of asset packs and material libraries is that they cover too small square area like 2x2 m and designed for tiny texel size. Those materials are just flat snapshots, no way to change details distribution or re-composite easily . Also you lose a way to do any conscious art selection what key things to show…
