Hi! I’m new to modeling and practicing SubD in Maya. I’m working on a bottle-like piece and I’ve reached the rounded end (think test-tube bottom). I’m not sure what the best way is to close this shape under smooth. Because it’s SubD I assumed it should be all quads instead of collapsing to the center, but when I fill it…
It's important to consider how your asset will typically be viewed in an actual running game. This kind of asset is a prop, not a "hero asset" and thus will not be allocated a ton of resources. It needs to be simple, low poly, not worried about silhouette except the most roughest shape.
Hi, all.

I've created six clusters of leaves, however, I've run into a snag where it states, " Do top-view…

Is it normal to look at old work which you were very proud of at the time, and now see nothing but flaws in it? I only want to keep 4 or 5 of these so please tell me which ones you like best. Also please look at what's already…

Unity got back to me on this as well: "The glossiness calculation needs a view vector. You can tell by the highlight changing shape based the viewing angle of the camera. This information is not there anymore after the light has been baked, as there's not a pre-defined point of view in the scene when baking the lightmap.…

Hey, I'm not much of a character modeler but I have studied anatomy. Her proportions seem pretty off in the limbs. Specifically the hip to knee and knee to heel ratios. The arms also out of proportion (on the big side). From the front view her head looks tiny and the profile view her feet seem too short. Her calves are…
