I need feedbacks & Critiques on my 3D work
Hello everyone, I'm currently working on a trim sheet material. In the image, you can see a piece of furniture that I'm texturing using this trim sheet. My goal is to use the same material to texture a few more furniture pieces or props. I'm trying to achieve the look of a walnut wood material. I'd really appreciate it if… -
Re: Confusion with Normal baking issues around edges/borders
@Fabi_G Hmm. Okay. Still trying to process and figure some of this out. Specifically, the trim method, which sounds great. So, correct me if I'm wrong, how one would go about that, would be to make the pattern as floating geo, like you've shown, duplicate it to make it longer if needed, and then overlay its UV where you… -
i7 and tri channel ram
Hey polycounters, I have a question regarding hardware... hope this is the right place:) I have an i7 PC that is configured for tri channel ram. The motherboard has 4 slots for ram. Anyways, I need more ram. Is there anything wrong with putting in 4 sticks of ram in a tri channel rig? I read somewhere that I would lose a… -
Re: Quads Vs Tris
When I do high poly scuplting, I try to avoid tris if possible. If I do use tris I try to have them placed in an area where the deformations are very smooth and do not have fine details until I reach the highest subdivided level. Nothing wrong with tris if you understand how it subdivides and can you use it to your… -
Re: Anyone remember the Dominance Wars?
Guess i am back. This is important to pay attention to (for me at least) since i "almost" entered all the Artstation challenges, for the lack of finding alternative, DomWar/ArtWar challenges.. Yes , After the Aye eye push, conveniently. Makes me rethink the "update frequently", "requirement" had an alternative motive… -
Sculptris for basemesh (tris)/ mudbox for details (quads)
Hello everybody. Im a 3ds/topogun/mudbox user and ive always been missing an easy tool to create my basemeshes. Ive seen scrulptris came out and it seems it might be helpful in that sense, only tiiiiny detail is scultris works with tris (surprise) and mudbox loves quads... has anybody tried it in that way? -

Faces vs Polys vs Tris
Yes, it's me again, with another question. What is the difference between faces, polys, and tris? I understand polys are polygons, and tris are triangles, but what is the difference between them all? how do i calculate one from the other? i've searched here and on the web, but i'm just not getting the search down right,… -
turning tris into quads
Hi there Im a beginner (approaching intermediate I guess) Maya modeller and am currently modelling a plane. Im trying to make it as clean as possible and am also going the route of hard surface modelling so am adding a few extra edge loops. My issue is that I have a few tris left behind at present and Id rather them not be… -
Tri-count limit for my F1 GARAGE?
Since September I have been creating an f1 garage with a budget tri-count limit of 300,000 tris. Up to this point in time i realise now that this limit won't be enough. I would really like some feedback on this matter, as i am nearing my deadline for this project.
