Sketch book is a must-have for me. Some museums are cool with those micro watercolor kits, if you're into color studies. You can often sneak a camera in, just turn off the flash. I brought a stereoscopic camera into the Borghese Gallery in Rome once, got some great shots of Bernini's sculptures before the guard caught me.…
I have yet to see any real explanation for why the team was let go, and I’m somewhat hesitant to assume it’s because take 2 thinks gen ai is a bad bet. When I first saw Luke’s post I had that same thought of “oh good, it’s happening” but dug in a bit more. There’s responses and likes of his in the past that call out gen AI…
I'm not asking which software is objectively the worst, or how do they compare, but which one you, personally, hate - but must - use. 3D or 3D-related software, of course.
Just finished up on this little personal project. He's 4.3k tri's and uses a 2048x2048 dif, spec, normal and gloss map. Little high specs, but i wanted to get the most from my bakes.

I first drew the textures, put them…
So this is going to sound weird, but I'm looking for someone to make a head sculpt/bust of an obscure "What If?" Character known as "Spider Ma'am" aka Aunt May with Spider-Man powers. I'm trying to make a custom action figure for her, but In order to do that I need an appropriate head sculpt. For various reasons I'm much…
I have an issue with Substrate where anything over the fogged (rough) glass has artifacts around them. Like a glow and the area around doesn't have the rough glass. The more rough the glass surface is, the more the artifacts become larger. Went through a lot of settings and didn't have any luck. Anyone encounter this…
Having a good understanding of proper topology is of course a must. You could consider reading about how subdiv surfaces work and what they are (Wiki). An understanding of the underlying mechanics might help you when you run into issues. But yea you really nailed it. As a new modeler, what software are you looking at and…
