Re: Araiel "LevelUp" Sketchbook 2016
I've started learning Substance Painter - here is first tutorial base project: I made first test of my new photo studio equipment (sotfboxes and Yongnuo flashlights) in my new room. I had no real model so I used mannequin's head :P Below is the blockout of the game level from the Baldur's Gate 2. I also made an image with… -
Re: Need advice on modelling
Most people create a blockout mesh, then the high poly, then create the low poly thereafter that matches the high poly. Some people as they are creating the high poly will save out a mesh the is a Medium poly, this can be much easily reduced right before it is subdivided. Right now I would finish the blockout mesh you… -
Re: Can anyone Reccomend some 3d environment artists to look at/ input needed
It looks like you went farther than you needed to on some things. When I'm doing a simple blockout, it rarely goes beyond a few primitives to get the idea of the scale and proportions in the scene. I may do a bit of modeling for a complex shape or some important prop, but even then, I only add enough to get the idea of… -
Re: B0lly's system shock 2 environment thread
I have not played the original game so I cant comment on anything with that. But I think you already at this stage can block in your lighting and try to set a mood. What do you want the focal point to be? Try to highlight that and make it pop out. And also your blockout is really blocky (no pun intended), I would… -
Re: Prop Workflow
Blockout High res Low res In that order. This way minimises time lost to large scale design changes. Your large forms are defined by the Blockout - that goes in game and the team can work with that until the final art is done. Smaller scale design decisions are defined by your highres model - you can resolve connection… -
Re: Model HP into LP model or use LP as reference?
blockout simple mesh, this isnt a "lowpoly" as you're not going to do any optimization, uvs, cleanup, etc. You just want this done as fast as possible to get the proportions right. Then you use this as a reference, and either base your high on top of this or remodel with it in the background(often times it makes more sense… -
Re: are you a swooper or a basher?
[ QUOTE ] Swasher or Bwooper. [/ QUOTE ]hehe, yes. In the absense of copious amounts of artwork to look at, I've found it easier to bash a section of a level out so I can get a grip on the physicalities of a 'look' and then, swash; blockout, slight detail, blockout, slight detail, back to previous area and add a bit more… -
Re: Having trouble modeling this in MD...
I feel that by understanding how to do this with the proper darts and curves, I will be able to handle a lot of other challenging shapes. Funny enough, I went to fiverr and ask some CLO/MD professional to do this for me and recording them selve so I can see their technic, but the majority of them refused saying it was too… -
Re: Struggling with Head Anatomy – Need Feedback to Break the Cycle
Looking very nice! We're really into nitpicking territory now. One thing i'd focus on is the Zygomatic arch, and how it leads into the forehead. At some point along the forehead a plane change happens, where the skull has a ridge, and then that part is covered in muscle. I've pointed out roughly where that plane is, and on… -
Princess and the Pea Diorama - WIP
Hello! I'm new to polycount, but have been wanting to post for a while. I've just started working on a diorama for a university project, and thought I'd log it here. I'm doing a diorama inspired by 'The Princess and the Pea'. So far I have a big reference/mood board and have been doing iterations of blockouts to get a feel…
