Thanks! I'll play with that when I next work on this scene! :) I made some leaves for the scene. I used an image from online and produced the normal map and 5 different colours from that. Here's one of them. they're going to be autumn colours so the five I currently have are a mix of oranges/reds/auburns/browns/yellows I…
1. Small scenes where you modelled/textured everything, bigger scene for layout and composition. Latter can be much more liberal with megascans/third party stuff. 2-3. Depends where you want to work. Have you looked into companies yet? 4. Not using references enough, eyeballing too much, not having a decent breakdown of…
I don't want to rock the boat...cause your result looks great! As someone who got a couple passes on the Naughty Dog Texture Art Test (and became very familiar with it), I'd say this looks like you used it as your starting point and modified the scene/models to your liking. The result looks great but I'm pretty convinced…
Yeah I'm going to fiddle with the colors more once I get the rest of the base textures sorted out. I do want to keep the yellow though, since it's a nuclear facility (yellow fits with the scene), and there's going to be a lot of decals going up with the yellow/black striped taped around the area. I'm going to have to play…
Download: https://gumroad.com/l/yVZbn Hey guys, currently prepping for my 3rd year university major project. During which I created a lookdev scene for me to use and decided I should give it out for free to say thanks to the CG community for the last few years in assistance for my personal development. Inside is a simple…
Ok, when you said skybox I figured you had a large cube surrounding the entire environment that had a sky or backdrop texture applied to it. If you have a cube or sphere surrounding the whole scene you can use the texture on it to light the scene. You will either get true HDR lighting if you use a real HDR image, or…
Hey Tory ! Sparth is a great inspiration for anything sci fi ! For the ref that i listed, its more of liking one or two objects/elements that are in those movies and placing them in the world i'm building. Like in Blade runner there are these really cool really tall towering background buildings and i so wanna use them in…
Hello guys, First of all Happy new year to every one. @Stavaas Yes indeed, I did removed all the stains of the first scene, and I removed some more in the second scene. I will try to improve some other stuff like you said on this scene, cause there is a lack of detail. @Dweenietodd Thanks for the kind word and the follow…
i'm no mean concept artist so there may be way better ways of doing this...and this may sound a bit basic and obvious... but the three R's.... reference reference reference ALOT of a scenes colour will come from the lighting too, getting this to work with the diffuse (concept i know but same errr concept) and choosing both…
So I got a little time over lunch to look at this. I've changed a ton of stuff under the hood and in the scene setup itself, but the most visible changes can be seen here: Change log is here * Inverted floor and wall textures to neutral white so scene elements are less distracting * Added walls and floors pointing inwards,…
