Re: How to model a 50s van?
Well.. when you said in the other thread you are modeling for 6 years.. and then "complains" about people doesn't show you the best models for your task (which you got paid for).. then this could be read/seen as.. weird. And people might think to spent there free time otherwise. Think about it.. :tongue: Happy blending.… -
Real-World Lighting Set-up that Might be Helpful for Modelers
I was just shown this quick little lighting tutorial by a friend over Tumblr - DSLR Lighting Techniques from Eve Hazelton. "In this tutorial created for philipbloom.net, Eve talks you through simple to advanced lighting setups that are easy to achieve and produce beautiful results. She explains simply, how to get the most… -
Re: I need help with some lighting/composition, please?
Hey man, big fan of this project. Have been watching it on and off for a while now. Glad to see it's still alive :) I think one big problem with the lighting is it's consistency. Same light source(more or less), Same color, Same intensity, etc. I think it would be very beneficial to change up where light is coming from.… -
Re: PBR grass vs asphalt albedo/base color value?
I would say just use what works for you. Even with worn asphalt, you'll have a host of options (how old, what kind of gravel/aggregate, what kind of bitumen, what kind of dust, not to mention the kind and state of grass or foliage). I can see the appeal of PBR being the be all and end all of material definition (looking at… -
Re: Does having five edges meet here work for this product? What’s a better alternative?
Thank you for your guidance. I think I’ve got the general idea. When poles appear at corners, the corresponding arcs will be larger. Conversely, adding supporting geometry shifts the poles to other positions to achieve tighter arcs. The exact location of the poles is not critical. What matters most is whether the light and… -
Re: Getting realistic renders the right way??
you will never beat the quality of a highpoly mesh. everything you do will just be a approximation of the highpoly. you might come close with a displacement map. for pure rendering i would just use bump maps for very small detail that will blow the polycount of your highpoly. of course the rendertime will be very high, so… -
Re: Having doubts about taking a first job landing
I'll reframe your post a bit of what I understood, correct me if I'm off or wrong : " I want a job that actually moves me forward not just a resume filler, but experience I can be proud of and showcase. At the same time, I need fair pay and a stable company, not one that exploits me or might collapse any day. I’m looking… -
Re: Night Light Pulse Rifle (Destiny inspired)
I actually did not remember my reason for the placement for it there so that's why I said that. But went through looking into the placement of parts on rifles and spent sometime cleaning up my design. I also liked F for the floating shards, but wanted to keep it the same angle of the shards since it kinda resembles the… -
Re: Knives - Textures Lights & Rendering Class
I would find a real picture (not a render) of the knife you are working on, or as close to it as possible, and try to replicate it. That is the best way to start tuning materials and mesh details. You have too many factors right now working against you to get an accurate shading model. I say temporarily ditch any sort of… -
modo 601, how to render perfectly bright, no lighting?
Hi, I'm trying to achieve the same effect in a render as 'texture' display mode; that is, totally bright render as if there is no light information. I should be able to take the render and put it next to the texture and notice no difference in colour I have tried setting the render output to 'diffuse coefficient' and that…
