Re: Halo effect
Wait are you asking about adding bloom? If so that's dead simple, Hit 8 to open the environment and effects panel, select the effects tab, add a blur effect, under blur parameters open the pixel selection tab, uncheck whole image, check luminance and change the numbers to to get the desired effect. -
Re: help with gloss maps
You have to be using a phong shader in Maya for them to work, blinn flat out refuses to show them, connect your gloss map to cosine power No idea about a tutorial though, they're fairly straight forward just experiment you'll pick it up quickly Quick edit because apparently blinn's do work and I forgot something important… -
Re: Photoshop: What brushes do you paint with?
Ouch Vig, not Bob Ross. The gfxartist tuts are good though, especially Ron Lemen's tuts. Of course the perennial PSG tut is also worth checking out. http://itchstudios.com/psg/art_tut.htm Sorry to hear that Dekard, that's why you gotta check out their work first, interview them like you would if you were hiring them (can I… -
Re: (WIP) 90s-20s Nostalgic Desk Looking for Feedback
A cool project! I didn't go through all the comments only saw your screengrabs pretty dope. All Id say is have a focal point or focal object. I am getting confused about where to look. Change your luminance values if need be or lights. Its up to you though ^^ gl -
Re: Unreal Engine 4
Same here. The Luminous tech demo benefited immensely from both of those features. Decent cloth simulation for clothes (as opposed to single sheets like flags) is a must for next gen, and hair simulation would go a long way towards alleviating the bald space marine thing we've had going on this whole gen. -
Re: Junior character artist portfolio needs critique
I agree with BARDLER. I think you could improve on lighting in general. Try to use more of the entire luminance range. Took the liberty to do a little comparison. Not all there is to it, but it does show something I think. The middle picture is Mike Kime's "Velbor" and the right portrait photo is from Marianna Santikous… -
Answered: DDO to Redshift roughness problem
Hello, I used the Metalness disney exporter in DDO and connected the maps to redshift in Maya. Here ist the result. The main problem I have right now, is that the roughness doesn't seem to be the same. I set the colorspace to raw, alpha is luminance and BRDF is GGX. Do you have any idea what is wrong? By the way its the… -
Re: Most useful shortcuts nobody knows
In Photoshop, Ctrl-Alt - ~ selects by luminance - white is 100% selected, black is 0 % selected, etcetera. There may be other ways of getting this, but it works through all visible layers, and I find it quite useful at times. And the Ctrl-Backspace in 3DS Max mentioned by renderhjs is something I only learned about myself… -
Re: Bierdstadt Inspired Landscape (UE4)
There really seem to be too many rocks for a forested region. The should be the exception rather than the rule. Don't be afraid of dirt; it's fairly important to those green things that grow outside. In an evergreen forest, there will usually be a fairly thick layer of fallen needles. This image seems fairly close to what…
