Firstly, if you're doing plants and leafy things, cutout is your best option. It sorts better and faster and has a 'base alpha cutoff' slider. Slide that around and you'll see what I mean. Otherwise, the dds settings in the texture importer can mess with the edges just a bit (try truecolor?). What you do then is more about…
Thanks a lot! I put some polishing marks on the grips where the fingers would sit, but I agree that it's probably not worth the UV space, especially since it won't be visible when it's being held. I'll mirror that part, and use the free space to make the insides look better when the slide is locked back. UDK's skeletal…
You are doing amazing things, I love this tool! :D The split example shows some of the elements have been cropped losing information they had in the psd version, noticeable one is the rounded slider on the bottom right. Seems to have extracted the shadows properly but has cropped the handle to the bounds of the sliders…
Hey there ! A WIP post this time ^^ Cosmetics. Yep. Let's talk about them for Star Wars - Redemption. First of all don't worry, I don't plan on going in a "modern" way to incorporate everything from other universes inside the project. The goal remains consistent with Mevenn's story/character and aims just to give more…
Hey there.. Firstly i just want to say that this thread is slightly confusing becuase the tittle 'Setting up a quick portfolio site' sugest that the site well be aimed to selling your work for potentianl jobs. But its more for creating a blog/personal site. >> Making A Site Without Touching HTML << Here is a quick…
The decorations on the backpack, especially the stickers, seem too ordinary. Would an alien baby have depictions of Terran animals (elephant, octopus, etc.) or the more common creatures of its home world? The English text is especially jarring; while I'm certain there are odd aliens who speak Terran just as there are odd…
Just a few comments on the materials so far: Your polymer is way too glossy. Gun polymers are not very reflective at all. Best I can describe it is that it's a 'softer' polymer with a very matte feeling to it. On the side of the barrel where the serial/maker marks are, the markings appear to be raised, not impressed, as…
Hi guys, I have a replica M1911 and thought I'd record some sounds for use in animations. These are rough recordings and will need some editing in a preferred audio package, however I hope they are useful. You're free to use it in whatever you want... :) SOUNDS:…
Here's a couple of things that struck me quick: * Quality over quantity * Summary is spelled incorrectly * I wouldn't recommend even having a summary section to begin with. The way you wrote it is pretty long winded and confusing. Try to have your portfolio as a "very streamlined art viewer" * Display your props all in one…
Blender rotates with 5 degree increment whenever you hold down the Control key. This is something that's applied consistently through the program - scaling and moving happens with increments too if you hold down Control, and I've only just noticed that it increases the amount of sides for a cylinder by ten instead of one…
