Re: Darksiders 2 Environment
very cool dude. I would say the same you need more texture work. You could start by adding some color variations on those bricks, so they don't have the same value everywhere, add some gradients, maybe a general dark brownish gradient coming from the ground on those pillars. You could also add a subtle grunge, nothing too… -
Re: Wakko's Poly Disaster
JadeEyePanda: I will look into evening out the lighting on the textures. Pull back on the Rocks a bit and punch it up on the fence, path and pedestal. I will also look into light baking as I have not dealt with this before. Starting an Inn following the Hero Spawn Point. Started off creating exterior brick wall tiles for… -
Re: Tiling textures versus normal map details...
I think he means you should tile the diffuse textures (generic concrete block or brick or whatever). Normal maps can be sorta tiled, but they're usually tiling the same as the diffuse map so the cracks and seams line up. If you look right down the middle of the building, the texture and normals for a window (if it's the… -
Re: workflow problems
sounds great in theory EQ, but rarely are my clients even aware of that process. I suppose though If I want to get back in to game work, i could try that approach, but even on a personal level I like to update my 'brush strokes' regularly so need to have a fairly flexible system anyway. I seem to have a hit a brick wall… -
Re: Old Japanese House
Yea I've got a bunch of references for the roof tiles and the roof. As well as different kind of walls that were used such as the wooden slates here and brick work ones aswel. The pink part is seperate from the main part so I'm going to keep it like that so I can re use it again somewhere else as well as the roof tiles… -
Re: Forza Motorsport Environment Art - Big Images
Looks like solid stuff, Ryno. Good to see you showing off stuff here! Consistency is great, all too often I see stuff that doesn't quite "match up" in the overall scheme of things, but these look like all a part of a similar environment even when rendered separately. On the first image there, I'd maybe have flipped the… -
Re: [WIP] Learning Handpainting
I think one of the issues you render is showing is too small of detail. If you want to do handpainted textures, you should constantly remind yourself "Keep it Chunky!" Keeping your details chunky will help a lot. Make things readable from a distance. You were painting some decent looking cracks and stuff on the bricks but… -
Re: Polycount Collaboration Project: Hail or Fail?
imo, the only way a game is going to get made is if it's super small and simple, maybe each artists contribution fits into a really defined template with guidelines so it can fit into the game like a lego brick and you can have as few or as many as you like and the game still works. I'm thinking the scale of a game which… -
Re: Lowtax lost
I thought it was brilliant. I don't like Uwe's movies either, but challenging critics to a boxing match takes a sense of humor at the very least. He must not take himself quite so seriously as we thought he does. It's highly unlikely Uwe thinks a semi-pro boxer beating up a geek is really going to help bitter wounds heal,… -
Re: 3ds Max constraint questions
I haven't looked at the latest one only the previous. That's awesome, so extract rotation and plug it in wire parameters as a float, brilliant, nice work. I'll have to remember that, it probably gets used all over the place in rigging complex mechanical things. Pen was the first place I hit when I started researching it,…
