Re: First post: I've completed these creature busts, I would like to hear your feedback on it
At first, it seems like it'd be best to do some clay bakes rather than final renders but from first glance it seems like they're good concepts but need some work before you go in detailing the busts. The textures seem to be placed as an afterthought - for example the little bit of damage/wear on the chest of the red bust… -
Re: beat up ice cream van. looking for feedback
definitely has potential, looking at the wireframe it has too many polygons for the bevels and where the shape doesn't affect the silhouette such as those edge loops right down the middle are you planning to bake this into a normal map or mid-poly model with bevels? on the flip side there is a part that could use more… -
Re: The Monthly CHARACTER ART Challenge | April 2016
Hey DANAOSC, thanks! Boots are difficult, I think because the foot is a difficult shape. I drew polys on the base form of the figure I sent back to max from ZBrush as a template (decimated) using polydraw. The boots were half the polycount you see below. I used the shell modifier to give the poly planes thickness and then… -
Re: Help me convince my brother
Well an interesting turn of events I called a pc fix it place and got a quote to make it run and install win7. I was out the door with the tower in my arms when my father and brother confronted me. my father promised to disown me if I left him. He said he made all these efforts to convince my bro to help me but you can't… -
Re: FINAL Handplanes - Omari McCord - Multi
@AlecMoody: I will try the max threading adjustment out and let you know soon. I do not use Smartfan on my home workstation/gaming rig. The software I am using is highlighted in blue, the software that came with the Antec CPU cooling kit. Its Antec Grid I believe. As far as NRM map and AO clean-up. I was baking the object… -
Re: OA3 progress thread
long story short, there was much turmoil and drama over a CGtextures-smuggling mapper in 2008 which drove morale into the ground leaving me left/ and unrelatedly a great artist (enkithan) moved on to bigger fish to fry. Many of the better models were collabs with me (mesh/anim) and him (skin/concept). and then there was… -
Re: Need help texturing weathered car paint
Thank you all for the feedback, i was thinking i was going away from the original concept since it didn't have as much grunge and damage, but i guess the tiny details such as rust and scratches were not meant to be in the concept, so i guess it's ok ? Also I've learned a lot from doing this piece, ( after all it's been a… -
Re: oil paint tips
Sorry, I meant that as a general point, not one that was specifically aimed at what you said - although what you mentioned did prompt that point of response. Varnish is designed to be a non-permanent material that can be easily removed as a surface layer to protect paintings, that means it redissolves quite easily so you… -
Re: Abandoned Warehouse Environment
To be honest right now it hardly sells the "abandoned" theme you need to tell a story about the scene like what happened? Why was it neglected etc. At the moment it looks like the place hasn't had a janitor for awhile. But that's it, to really sell the abandoned look you need to do a few things. 1. Knock one or both chairs… -
Re: Tips & tricks for working with large scenes
That's his problem. He's over clocking a card thinking he can squeeze extra performance out of it but he's really just making it unstable. Cards and processors have red lines for a reason. A GTX is an overclocked GTS that can handle the extra juice. If it can't they label it a GTS and sell it for a little less. By over…
