I'm working on a "remaster" of an old-school dungeon crawler called "Dragon Bane 2" as a personal/indie project. It's a dungeon crawler, with 3D grid-based movement and 2D turn-based party combat and inventory systems. The project needs a 2D freelance artist willing to work against a backlog of tickets to polish and extend…
Hey all! So I haven't really figured out a name for this set and I'm not sure if I'll actually do a full set (Weapon and Helmet). At this point I'd like to at least try and produce a Primary and Secondary weapon set. I've collected a good chunk of reference / inspiration and will put that into a inspiration board soon…
To flip individual channels, hit the lil cogs icon next to "Normals" in your last screenshot. Y should be green unless you're mistaken. Please be patient while I practice my gas lighting effects. As for the idea itself of using non-square textures generally, TIL it's no longer a bad idea to do as long as you stick with…
Hey, thanks for the kind words everyone! @Meloncov Absolutely. Currently there are also barely any mid/small size objects in the scene that make it hard to find any points of reference. Good spotting on the snow, I´ll look into breaking this up as well! @Buchananball Setting myself a fairly high aim right now and hope to…
Hey, I always seem to get this problem with laying out UV's in Maya. Once I've unwrapped and hit Layout, my shells look like they're overlapping or spilling over onto other tiles - see pics below. I've left the packing resolution as default and in the UV editor display at the bottom it says 0 overlapping uvs, but wondering…
Please let me know what you think about it! Will try to fit the pants into the poly limit, but does that mean for the pants I need to have them together with the belt? Because in that case no way it will fit within 300 triangles. Can I have the actual belt part of the "armor" bit? None of the model is final, just seeing…
I'm wondering if people have any, info or experience of doing this. Is it a good idea? What about the settings for the render what should you have for reliability and accuracy to the real world? Like trying to get the highlights to appear right. Where do you have to place the camera and lights in relation to one another to…
Hi everyone. :) This is my first thread, finally summed up enough courage to post here. I've recently been making some items for Dota, but for my next set I want some feedback as I go! :) I decided to try my luck at an Ursa Set. Here's some pretty rough concepts so far.. Not quite sure how to tackle the furry look on his…
Hello! I am needing some advice on the best practices around separating texture sets. I'm modeling a character and am getting close to the surfacing stage. Is it best to separate the textures sets by material, by prop, or by texture density need? (Face v. less important area) Thank you, look forward to the feedback!
