this is either a colorspace issue - make sure you're outputting raw from painter and importing linear to blender (i don't know what blender calls it) a tangent basis issue - make sure your model has the same tangent data and triangulation for both the bake and the render meshes. if you're using fbx there's a tickybox for…
Yo guys, a while ago, some other gnarly polycounters and i started up a sweet ass collaborative effort. it was on hold for quite a bit due to work commitments, but it's now back up and running. the idea behind the collaboration was to create a scene from The Silmarillion (a Tolkien book), which features an elf fighting a…
I`m thinking of buying a new PC soon and getting an SSD for the OS and main apps (and a larger HDD for archives) as I always found the HDD to be the bottleneck in my old computer.

It has over a hundred illustrators/concept artists but only a handfull of 3D artists so anyone who can contribute some would be appreciated.…
