Re: How do I convert a curvy UV to a rectangluar UV?
Headus UV has a rectilinear relax feature for this. Also, Max has the straighten selection and unfold strip from loop features. But really, the results will vary greatly depending on how far the edges deviate from the original relaxed shell. If this is for in-game purposes then it's only really the UV shell border edges… -
An argument against being an Art Monk
I posted this on my blog deal. Figured I'd repost on here since aside from my Mom (I hope) I don't think many people here visit my blog. I would really love to hear what all of you on here have to say about the subject of art time vs/and relaxation time. C&C would be great. Artists are a motivated breed. Well maybe not in… -
Re: Following Along - Summer Character Workshop - Female Knight
hey, quick thing with the eyes. the pupil is kind of small, which is really giving the crazy eye look, but the biggest thing is the actually position of the eye in relation to the eyelids. In a "normal posed eye" you rarely see the top side of the iris as its covered by the top eye lid. If you look at this eye, It feels… -
Re: J.Norman's Hard Surface Journal
After finishing up the Grenade Launcher, I decided to take a few days off to relax and recover. However, in that time I also upgraded my Artstation to Pro to use the website editing features as well as update a few other things I've been meaning to! If you guys want to check out the new website you can… -
Re: Forgetting how to draw
This happens to almost every artist. You don't really forget, you just get rusty. Creativity is a muscle and if you haven't used it in a while it becomes exponentially harder to start until you actually do so. Every time I sit down to draw the blank page is a scary obstacle and only actually getting that pencil/pen/wacom… -
Re: Bigley: Low Poly Thread
As Alberto said, 2048 should be quite enough. I usually turn my UV islands so that they make sense, as in have most stuff facing up (also having similar stuff close together for organization's sake) or maybe turned 90° if it fits better, but not at some random angle. It relates to squaring UVs, it's useful depending on the… -

Re: Shrink Wrapping (3ds Max)?
The first tool here looks like what I want (1:59) (before relaxing): [ame] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n724G7uMuPE[/ame] On the Wrapit site, it seems to relax the geo too. Can it shrink wrap without relaxing? I'm not interested in the create tools as it's just for conforming an existing mesh to another. It's a shame… -

Re: Need advice on unwrapping a dragon head
Whenever I have an area like that eye, where it can't relax properly, I try cutting another seam from there outwards. So I would start at the outside corner of the eye and follow that edge loop towards the horns. Relax that and see if it works. You could also try cutting out an eye-patch shape, and then cut across the…
