My question is really simple. What it's the best way to make a unique stone wall ? I know 3 way : - Make a tileable texture on the flat wall. - Make a tileable texture and extrude some stone. - Make 2/3 unique stone and put together to make a wall. Here I have used the last way. I made 3 unique stone and I put together to…
First of all, the quality of your uploaded image is very bad. I am unable to make out some colors. At the stairs for example: I see vague redish and greenish spot and I cannot tell whether that is just because of the quality of the image or your texturing. As said, there is a varying scale in your bricks. I don't know what…
Coming in nicely, I love your style, really pleasing to the eye. Here are a couple of things that might help: - Your colors and values are blending a bit too much for the ground/walls/wood. It's quite hard to distinguish the ground from the wall, and the stones making the base of the chimney look quite close to the wood…
Unfortunately I have found Texas to be lacking as far as the accessibility of good beer goes. Although I have started to see some good PNW Microbrews pop up at a few grocery stores and even found one of my faves on tap last night (see #1 below) so things are looking up. These days I am mostly drinking: 1) Broken Halo IPA…
Sounds less like thinking and more like dwelling. Even though at this moment you may feel things are meaningless but that could change at anytime. I know several years ago I felt that I had lost everything and nothing mattered anymore.. I was a bit self-destructive... but eventually I found many many things and people that…
Those ruins were lovely modelled! Two things stood out to me though: 1. Buildings of this style tend to be built onto platforms to keep them from sinking into the ground. You may see walls appearing to pop out straight from the ground but they usually either have hidden foundations or are the contention barriers and…
I agree with Arkana, if you are wanting to make your blade more metallic looking you need to create a bigger contrast between the darker base metal tones and the sharper edge highlights, don't spread out your painted specular to wide. Also the other thing that will help sell it as metal is if you have a light direction…
Hey here is the start to texture #2 the excitin wooden planks! Got the basis of it done, have to start adding details like woodgrain, some additional highlights and cracks etc. So crit away, knowing that there is still quite a bit of work to do. The tiling on the stone wall texture is still a bit of give and take... I want…
They don't make a difference technically... functionally however they do a couple of 'annoying' things; they 'wet' what you see (it's the same effect as licking a stone and what that does to the appearance of the surface) which can make assessing colours, especially 'dark' tones difficult. Related to that, you have the…
