Re: sci-fi control console asset.
So like others have said the green on everything is a bit strange, but that's pretty easy to fix with a few hue and saturation changes here and there. On a base level you've got a good idea going but I know you can push this model further quite a bit. Lets start with the texture. The metal is old and rusty but only in some… -
Re: Looking for portfolio advice/critiques
Yeah, thanks. That was very helpful. It's pretty funny that the only 3d art that looks finished is actually 2D. Just so I get an idea of what needs needs to be done: That rhino piece is probably what I would consider my most finished 3D work. Outside straight up artistic critique (though I would like to hear that too),… -
Re: Game ready character - How to do this and that
willehrendreich - Unfortunately its not unreal and nor unity :/ Guys, I'm stuck but so hard this time. After bringing back the model into max, baking, making the diffuse, it turned out as its really doesn't look like how I wanted. When I made the basemesh, it was looking good in proportion viewpoints. I planar projected my… -
Re: First Hand Painted Model (WIP)
Ok, a little more free time has sprung up. LateWhiteRabbiet has provided you with some very good tips. Hard edge brushes really help you to get that textured look (i just use the defualt PS brush for this) and then afterwards go over with a soft edge to blend things together (for this i use a gradient brush). I tend to use… -
Re: Karl Franz Monument
Wow, I didn't expect to get many responses while at work. That's nice to come home to. Alright here we go. PAINTOVER FUN! Everything in the red squares is a tileable texture from photo reference. Basically just touched up and made to tile and going to be fixed so it matches the rest. Here are the files if people want to… -
Re: Bake deformer to vertice animation (maya 2009)
If not enuff memory and If deleting all history anyway... How about transfering the pnt animation to a duplicate? if yes save following code as cly_bakeVtxDuplicateTransfer.mel select poly object and execute like: cly_bakeVtxDuplicateTransfer 1 substituting 1 for the desired step increment for keys ( integer fer now ) //… -
Re: Tunnels - Environment (image heavy)
indian_boy, Imb3nt, shotgun: Thanks guys, thank you for watching. Saidin311: I know what you mean, it's a bit of a drag. Especially if you have displacement that wants to recalculate everytime you move something :) I think this came to 1.2M polys, but each section was separate. I haven't even tried Turbosmooth, I just… -
Re: A good starting point for low poly modelling?
Hey guys, just a quick update. In between implementing some proper 3D collision detection in my engine, I've had a play around with Lightwave and Blender. Somehow I prefer lightwave by far. The interface is so clean and simple, and the straight forward tab/menu layout makes it very easy to find what you need. I've had a… -
Re: Why I Hate Demo Reels
for the financial part of it that I think @ArkOfDarkness brought up in a post further up; I have recently been trying to work out how much a student would end up paying for a 3 year degree in an animation/games art/vfx here in the UK (sorry cannot speak for another country, but should be roughly the same?) on top of their… -
Re: Texture Creation: Packing more into each pixel
Usually the ones who don't color their spec maps are programmers, lazy, or can't due to engine constraints (source engine in particular comes to mind.) Specular colors are crucial for defining materials. Lets say for instance you have 3 kinds of metal on your item. On your spec you could make one of them yellowed, one…
