Hi All, I have been working towards building a VR game where you can completely disassemble and repair first generation mazda miatas. Building every component of a car is a massive task - There are a few hundred unique parts + a library of re-use parts (mostly fasteners). Over the last 6 months I have developed a…
Hey Polycount! I'm currently in the process of planning an upgrade for my desktop, and thought it'd be a good idea to ask here to see if what I was going with was a good idea. I don't have too great a budget, but I do want to fix some of the outdated parts of my setup. My work is primarily on 3Ds Max and ZBrush, and heavy,…
Hello guys, i am new to hard surface and i want to make this piece in zbrush and only in brush. I have looked so many hard surface tutorial, but i still suck at this piece.

The epic chard tree is in the center and all branches come from the throne it'self. Furthermore the huge deed tree (It's wrap in vines the tree itself is…

First it started to shake mouse cursor, there were just a…

Following customer requests, we improved the UI display rate and the unfolding core now handling much bigger meshes. That was indeed a big challenge, but result is that we really could get unwrap of a one million…
Yup another one of those threads. :( It's been awhile since I played with PC hardware and there are like a million options... My budget is around 1000 to 1500. The more I can save the better though.
