As we move to that ever higher polycount it seems that some companies have a problem keeping up. So often i have seen some lovely character concepts, with style and feeling but with very little detail and much too much room for interpritation being used to help the hapless character artist make that 2 million poly…
I think the process that he describes goes like this: 1. Render out a basic skylight image of your object - Example 2. Delete the skylight from your scene. Apply a material that has a high specular to your object. Through Render Elements get an image of your spec highlights - Example 3. Take the two images into photoshop…
The first thing that jumps out at me when looking at this is that it doesn't seem like there's underlying structure in this guy's face. The general landmarks are there -- eyes, nose, mouth, etc. -- but there's no indication of bones and general structure below the surface to hold them in place. Everything seems to flow…
poopipe thanks for the comment . We don't use Unreal. I am still not sure I understand it completely . How would it work in a PC game for example ? Would those huge textures need to be stored in system RAM , while loading parts to vidocard on the fly ? Isn't it going to give some micro fps drops ? Or not anymore with…
Hello. I'm learning 3D modeling. Unfortunately, I have
a problem and I don't know how to fix it. Designs a mug. If I have a flat object, I project it
onto surfaces and I extrude it. Example: But if I have a 3d object I can't do that. How can I bend an object on a cylinder. Thingiverse example: Can it be done in some…

I'm kinda new to SD (and to this cool forum!) and I'm trying to create color variation for a simple tile texture. the logic is that I want the user to pick how many color he want to have, and add weight sliders per every color. here is an example for hard coded one with some histogram select: The issue here is…
Hi! It looks like you may have made your model in zbrush, and the model itself is pretty messy, which is not helping you out here Things like this draw attention away from your textures and give the impression that you didn't want to spend the time to clean up the model. Did you do any research or find any references to…
I know there is grab brush that saves depth as alpha and rgb separately but you have to do save two times instead of just once. It's extremely annoying and also when you try to record this save in a macro action it often does less than the whole document for some uncertain reason. My guess probably by exactly same frame…
Hello everyone, Today I am posting to try to solve a question that I have been carrying with me for a long time, and truth be told, I would like to be able to resolve it in order to create my environments with more confidence and security, or at least shed some light on the matter. The question is related to finding the…
