Tutorial Hoarder's Dump / Collage of tutorials hoarded over time
Greetings fellow Polycounters! I've had a stupid habit of trying to 'backup' nearly the entire supply of tutorials the internet has to offer, regarding game art, on my hard drive. In this thread I've tried to organize the unmanageable mess that I've made, into a somewhat readable/presentable form. Tried to pretty much post… -
Re: How long do your 3D projects take to complete?
That's what I've started to pick up on. When I first really got into 3D and making ambitious projects, I felt like the time that it took was just "baked" into the project itself. i.e. you want to make a real-time character? well then it takes xyz amount of hours no matter what. Now I've realized that you could make a… -

Re: Is there a quick way to make a color palette texture?
pior's examples of gradients and universal palette inspired me. Here is what I've come up with for now, it might actually just be what I stick with. Since the motivation for this isn't to fit the game onto a floppy disk, but rather just for workflow simplication, here is a texture that works pretty well and gives you most… -
Re: Advanced Skeleton control rig into UE5 question!
the eyes offset is most easily fixed by unbinding, removing the bind pose, and rebinding them. Since they 100% weight to a single joint this is an easy fix. if during the setup of the fit skeleton it complains about joints not being zeroed out this can also be the issue, if you ignored that. One time I had a similar issue… -
Re: Basic Male body Mesh, Beginner looking for advice and tips
Ah ok, I guess the reason for the headless model is because I want to be able to use interchangeable parts, technically the hands and feet were modelled separately as well and joined to the model just for the preview example, thought process is if I am going to use the model as a game ready asset I want it to be as easy as… -
Re: Hello, I'm 16 years old and I'm doing 3D modeling. What can I learn or do to improve my skills?
Hey Polycount, Two years ago, I posted here as a 15-year-old asking for advice on how to grow as a 3D artist. Thanks to the great community and the guidance I received, I’ve made a lot of progress since then. Now at 17, I’ve completed several freelance projects and developed strong skills in: * Game-ready asset creation *… -
Re: [Portfolio/Site Review] Student looking for internship in 3D Environment Art
There are some good and some bad things about your portfolio that I would like to address. Website: The website loaded fast and is very easy to navigate through. It may seem obvious but I have seen many interns with really bad websites so good job there. Characters: I don't really like the skeleton character in your… -
Re: [UE4] The Last of Us / Walking Dead inspired scene
Hey everyone, thanks for all the replies! I had to jump to another project for a bit, so haven't had a chance to update this, but I'm finally back and can focus on this project again :) Regarding the shading/ texture errors, as I've mentioned they're lightmap errors because the assets in the screenshots don't have proper… -
Re: Learning to bake
Hey guys, it's me again. xDD Just posting my final update and the mesh files. After baking several times, recreating the lowpoly of the lid from the hipoly a couple of times, I've realized the lowpoly might not follow the curvature of the hipoly enough at some places and this is what's causing those artifacts. Those…
