Hello! I'm new to Zbrush and 3D in general so apologies in advance if im asking stupid questions! I'm entering the Reallusion polycount competition but figured I might get some better help posting in this section.. When i hit bpr render i get this weird outline on my fibermesh, this includes eyelashes and the eyebrows.…
Hello to my fellow polycounters! I’ve been working on a character in the evenings after my day-job, in hopes of pushing my portfolio forwards. In the past I’ve either had a fairly generalist portfolio, or the chosen designs were not visually strong. I’ve reflected a lot lately, and decided to push forwards with a stylized…

First off, i am in no shape or form an experienced artist, I'm just someone that is (like you) trying to get better at this and maybe get a job in the industry. But, over the years i noticed some things that i think could help you in your endeavor. Let's break down the disclaimer that you started with: 1. You state that…
[ QUOTE ] i bet Michael made a deal. if he killed Ana Lucia he would get Walt back. but since he accidently killed the other girl they won't let him have him. [/ QUOTE ] I'd say the deal was to get the survivors' hotage out. If you notice, he shot himslf in the arm at the end. It looks like he's faking the other's violent…
at this stage i would recommend blocking in colour; it'll help with grouping details and getting proportions right; you can drag your concept in as a texture, apply it to a plane, then colour sample the texture (shortcut c) and go from subtool to subtool, rbg > fill
Thanks for your feedback, guys. I will try to apply some of these tomorrow, and hopefully I will have some good news. @Reyne, I think I get what you're referring to the with the UV's being outside of the 0-1 space. It is how it is because I was trying to avoid having the UV's overlap for sculpting in mudbox. If two UV…
Texture projection method The main method of creating texture using AI is to project the generated image onto the model from several angles. Important This technique does not exclude a person from working on textures. AI is a tool that speeds up the process, not completely automated. Also, when working on textures, work in…
@Ashervisalis My first post on Q2pmp (polycount's forerunner) was met with the founder of this site calling my work utter dogshit. Later on, I was also treated to a critique by Paul steed (or id fame) calling my work garbage. May he rest in peace. So, I frankly find the current crop of "don't even nudge my feelings in the…
You are right about the big value of this forum :wink: .. But also i have the impression that usualy people go through some education (school/ certified courses) to gain this skillset. But even then sometimes aren't hired. Maybe those "uncertified" users are "cheaper" ?? IDK what is more "best way" in the long run. Also…
