Thanks for the feedback guys. What I'm getting is the lighting is crap. I'm inclined to agree, since it's an area I haven't had the chance to develop as much. I'll keep toying with it. I've got some ideas that'll hopefully work. Accentuate the geometry, reduce the noise, create a focal point for each main area, etc.…
Thanks for the feedback guys - glad you all like the blade texture, that was the main reason I did this sword, I found it a challenge on my first one. @shrike Thanks for the paintover! That does look better! I will definitely experiment a bit more and see what I can come up with. :D What is it that looks less credible to…
Thanks for the comment guys I appreciate it. FOv was something I was wanting to fix but I was to inexperienced with UDK setting s to get it changed something to look into now I think. Also look into how to change the aspect ratio of the image? The whole piece took me 5 days silver_hoodlum I don't know if thats long or…
there are soo many waysss sooo many wayss!! theres literaly hundreds of ways to get these assets made, and yes wasker, i'm not sure about mass effect, but i would not be suprised if they only used filtered normals, its a valid technique and a lot of games do it. my first advice is for you to search pimp an previews and see…
KeyserSoze: Thanks for pointing out what he was talking about. I had a feeling that might be it but though that he was trying to point out something a little more obvious. As far as that not being modeled, from most of the reference images I have gathered that object has such little protrusion and is somewhat completely…
Vig: Not outright attack, declare "if any of you move, we'll blow up your sacred city". I just read the statement from those terrorists... Man, what a bunch of delusional wankers. "massacres Britain is committing in Iraq and Afghanistan". Pah, they've seen nothing! Would they prefer if the Russians invaded Iraq? And do…
Also followed! I dont keep a writing blog myself, but If anyone is interested I do have a silly comedy-fantasy e-book up on amazon: [ame="https://www.amazon.com/The-Armpit-of-Evil-ebook/dp/B005UUTSBC"]The Armpit of Evil: Joe Mirabello: Amazon.com: Kindle Store[/ame] and I have had some horror short stories published in…
something else i particularly liked is the prominent use of Chicago in the film--I live a few hours south of the city and have spent a fair amount of time in it, and for anyone who's been in Chicago, the movie is that much more believable. not that burton's highly formal design for gotham city was bad, but this movie makes…
Hey TeriyakiStyle! Thanks for taking the time to make those suggestions! Yeah, I agree with the burlap/cloth texture. It's getting a bit noisy. I do like the more saturated look I will make some parts more saturated, but what I was looking at for color reference was this image by Yingjue Chen. It inspired me to do my own…
