Yeah that movie gave an odd impression for sure but I am talking more about art style the games pretended to be "photo real" starts to give you. Certain detail fatigue you eyes are getting . I blame too much of procedural approach and increased sampling in PBR shaders. Few years ago the shaders looked like what Substance…
Hey, glad you could get Max. I love it, and once you get the jest of where everything is, and how it works you will too. I have watched a ton of tutorials to see which teaching styles I like, and I have found that Infinite Skills has a very comprehensive DVD for you to learn from. It covers all aspects of Max. I highly…
Hmm, I can't imagine why it would change anything about the UVs. It is only skinning to a rig. Perhaps you had a couple of UV sets present before uploading to mixamo and it chose the wrong one. Use the UV set editor in maya to double check that. If that isnt the problem, upload an .mb file of the model you are sending to…
Well, I don’t see a problem with anyone who is posting their art. And there’s essentially no hard distinction between 3D Showcase and Digital Sketchbooks. It’s up to the poster to choose which they’d prefer.
Loving this but I believe the muddy colors get in the way. Don't make skin just darker brown in the shadows - it moves towards red due to subsurface scattering. Most shadows on skin are slightly glowing red and there is a clear red subsurface band along the shadow terminator. You can research but let me know if you'd like…
Where to begin? It's nice that you're doing fan-art, it helps to keep motivation during portfolio hell. Though be mindful that a scene like this isn't necessarily going to scream "Bloodborne" to anyone looking at it. Don't lean on it for recognition. And unless you're trying to get a job at Fromsoft (and trust me, you…
Hey, I'm looking for level design / set decorator tutorials for a friend who is just starting with Unreal Engine. I know I have seen plenty of high quality ones, but because I haven't been actively consuming them for plenty of years now, I don't really save them anymore. I tried to do a quick search and I know there are…
Yeah I was trying to make a more affordable setup by creating a light tent (basically white light coming evenly from all directions) and using a rotating model in the hopes that I could maybe get away with using one camera taking multiple pictures as the object rotated. I understand that the lighting isn't supposed to…
Thanks Eric. I see . With "camera" i mostly meant a special "baking camera" Arnold had in 3d max when it was free plugin . I think around 2015-2017 . I am still trying to get same options like rays coming through alpha clipped planes with BTT . So far I get it but with artifacts even after setting zero padding . Looks like…
Hello, Our next Kickstarter is just about ready to launch and we will start thinking about next years Kickstarter projects. Currently we do all our Tilescape tiles in house, but are are looking to expand. We are looking for a couple of experienced Zbrush artists to work with. Artists must have these skills: * Understanding…
