Re: How much of ZBrush do you guys actually use?
@gnoop for sure! I've found the same, leverage procedural stuff for quick results but polish there is brutal, it's just so much easier to finalize in ZBrush. I'm usually sending things back and forth. I really enjoy starting tileables with sculpted heighmask chunks from zbrush. Then I'll usually have to paint stuff out.… -
Battle Axe - Hand painted texture
Hey guys! I've been a long time lurker of these forums and its safe to say I'm a little nervous, but I'm making an effort to emerge from the darkness to give back to this awesome community. Over the years you guys have provided me with tons of indirect and direct help. The inspiration alone is beyond words. Hopefully, I… -
Painting in zbrush; seams can't be painted?
This is really an odd problem. SOMETIMES when I paint textures, it will give me splotchiness along UV seams. Sometimes it doesn't, which is odd, sometimes subtools will or won't have this issue within the same Ztool! What causes this!?!? Solution??? -
Re: Early-Late 2000s CGI/Game textures
Hello, "How do these textures look so real on the colormap alone?" These diffuse textures look real because the artists who painted them understood the properties of a given material (similarly to how someone would assign roughness values), but *also* knew how to represent these materials like a figurative painter doing… -
Re: (Solved) Maya MEL: periodic curve and knots
A more concrete example: I know this works: curve -name "TEST1" -periodic 1 -degree 1 -point 0 0 0 -point 1 0 0 -point 2 0 0 -point 2 0 1 -point 2 0 2 -point 1 0 2 -point 0 0 2 -point 0 0 1 -point 0 0 0 -knot 0 -knot 1 -knot 2 -knot 3 -knot 4 -knot 5 -knot 6 -knot 7 -knot 8; But I can't get the degree 3 version of it… -
Re: Merging points
I use 'M' to activate the tweak component tool, then 'L' to toggle it into welding mode. Alternatively from F1 (searched 'welding'): You can weld pairs of points interactively while using the Weld Point tool. Alternatively, you can weld pairs of points interactively by pressing Alt while using the Move Point tool. … -
Re: Hand Painted Textures - crit appreciated
imo, the tiles for the roof pattern currently read a little bit too much like stone rather than tiles, due to the way you handled how they are cracking and being painted. It looks a bit too much like chipped stone, especially when compiled with the blueish hue. I'd say rethink how they are cracking, and look at some… -

[WIP] The Northman interior Environment - Cult
Hello again fellow Polycounters! I have started up another Environment project, this time a runestone interior! So I haven't done much hard surface interior environment work before and I saw this concept from Ioan Dumitrescu that was made for The Northman. (https://www.artstation.com/artwork/LeXBKR) The scene is set under… -
Re: The Blighted, diffuse painted character
Digging through my saved files, here are some progress images. It's not as informative as an actual tutorial or anything, but I hope it's useful: In cases where I have a nice concept to work from, I always try to see what I can get away with by simply projecting the concept on to the model. Sometimes it's helpful,…
