Need help with environment composition
Hey folks Been a long time since doing an environment and really need to improve my skills in this area! I'm hoping for some guidance in composing a small themed environment based upon the "temple of Poseidon" and Games workshop "Dawn of War - Necrons". I'm using the temple structure as my main concept and a "sarcophagus"… -
[WIP] Reaching the stars (plant-based edition) environment
Hello Polycount! After my previous project was an escape into medieval times, this will be an escape into space. This sentence might already be enough to have you roll your eyes and remember the thousands of ever-same sci-fi hallways you stumbled upon while looking up this unique idea for an environment, before scrapping… -
Re: Mari and Modo Indie available now on Steam
Hi JGreasley ! It's always nice to see you show up in these threads. On this : I think the problem comes from the question being framed too narrowly. Of course if you ask people about the kind of polygon count they use for their individual ingame assets, you would get these kind of numbers (around 100k). But if you were to… -

Re: learning how to draw
You can make a stencil, from a printout, apply to the skin and then tattoo through the stencil, In the same way you can photomash, zsketch, greybox... your vision for 3D. You 'learn' to be more creative, just by creating lots. Creativity is the point you start trying things with the knowledge of 'I know 10 ways to do this,… -
Re: Mods/Games using temporary art, your opinion?
+1 to what Pixelmasher said, first of all. To add to that, prototyping, greyboxing, mockups, blockouts, whatever you want to call it, is a pretty much a required practice at this point for anything that animates. The process of making a final character or creature asset is so complex and unfriendly to iteration that you… -

Before seeing this technique for creating terrains, i started a terrain for a small level in UDK for school using their terrain system(not landscape). Ive greyboxed all my rocks and items in… -
Re: Size of modular pieces
That's fairly normal in a block out stage to have all odd lengths. You are just getting a feel for the general space there. One of the major points of greyboxing is not to be locked into things like having one random wall being 11.312m long. if you intend to go on from there to develop a modular set from that, modular has…
