Ok so you got a material that offsets the vertices, on a particle, thus the particle doesn't understand the vertices are not outside the bounds? Correct? It is not the best for performance, but can't you simply set a huge bounding box on those particles then? So big that it will never be occluded? Easier than changing the…
Nice work Kit_E, I think overall it's looking really strong. I especially like the way you have the girl getting up and crawling away in the beginning, there's a nice attention to detail. If you're looking for ways to plus this shot, you may want to consider the following. 1. It's unclear to me why when the guy turns…
Popped his head clean off, just as promised. Discovered orienting the scale tool based on the normal position tonight. Big fan. I tried to figure out how to make a hose out of a cylinder. It would need to hang from one of the boxes at his waist, drape over his thigh, and extend up into his backpack. Doable, but once I…
HAL are you the same HAL9000 on the Bethsoft forums? Your work to the fallout community is priceless :) Also I'm not sure exactly what vertex groups are or how they work. As of now I have them floating a bit above the surface. From a tutorial I watched on CGTuts one guy said that as long as they fit into the projection…
i use sky domes and emissive materials all the time to bake lighting in for games across levels this is the same as using a skylight. and your bounce light should be the colour of the sky so blue (or greyblue if overcast), the colour of the materials in the scene will be picked up on the first bounce, this is more…
There's a lot going wrong with the proportions of the body. I would recommend stepping back and ignoring the small details you are getting into and going back to adjust the main forms. There a a lot of things that just don't read as being human. Things like the length of the femur in relation to the length of the lower…
Well I know this sign was posted a while ago, but I just now got the time to go around and redo some of my older models. I really wanna finish this piece. I went back and upped the detail (two more signs, sign support, concrete base, screws) and managed to drop the tri count by about 900 at the same time which I'm very…
Here's minor update of this project. SO much for getting this done in a short time span. I hate when other things get in the way. Also this column is high poly and will be sculpted in Zbrush. I'm using the hi poly to low poly method. I unwrapped the high poly version, then will texture in photoshop, after that I will…
Theyre pretty damn sexy. Once you use them it totally spoils you...makes it very hard to go back to using a tablet. Keep in mind that the stand is very adjustable. When i paint i like to raise my chair and flatten the cintiq so that its more like a drawing table set up. That way your hand isnt fighting gravity when youre…
I would be surprised if you did not know this but employers are required by law to give you time off for service and to hold your job for you while you are away. That being said, I have heard of numerous incidents around the present conflict and employers actually firing employees that have to take an extended leave of…
