Re: Learning to UV... running into some problems with unfold (Maya)
No problem, glad it helped. I don't know how it was done in the tutorial you saw but there are a lot of ways of making UVs according for what you are going to use the mesh. Sometimes it's better avoiding a lot of cuts when others it better to avoid too much distortion. You will start to see the patterns once you UV more… -
Re: (UE4) Watchmaker
Hey everyone. I decided to make some changes to the setting and space because my previous scene seems too bland while the wall with wood planks has too much noise that can be distracting to the viewers. So I decided to use a concrete texture for the wall to reduce the "noise". Then I created a watch gear that is not fully… -
Re: Showing Vertex color/lighting in Max Render
I think Max 2008 might be too old :/ when I put the composite in the diffuse slot it only gives the options to put in maps , no blending options or anything. I was finally able to get my vertex colors to render using the vertex color shader...now its just a matter of having them show up with my diffuse >< I tried "mix"… -
Re: Uni Project...... lots of images...
There are a lot of areas that need work, but I would say the main thing texture wise is your painting methods. Don't paint with such dark colors! Pick the actual tone and hue you want and paint with conviction! Not every shadow should go to black. You are having to cover it up by smudging too much and the textures end up… -
Re: Video Format?
sending dvd's: sure, those will work anywhere. however you have to send it the old fashioned way. if you're applying for a specific position, this might be the way to go! but too costly if you want to mass mail everyone. then there's those companies who specifically ask for dvd's, but in games this does not seem too… -
Re: New Artist/Animator looking for advice...

I like some of the rigging and modeling nice work =) You've got a lot of the technical hurdles taken care of. 3rd, <<!! INCOMING WALL-O'-TEXT !!>> At the risk of sounding like a dick I'm going to rip this whole thing apart.… -

Old GIR
Did this little fella over the last two days (about 2h high, 1h low, 1h unwrap, 1h messing with projection and baking...did the textures today...about 2-3h...methinks)...he's gotten a bit old :poly121: (1756 faces...could use some c&c...mainly on the textures, but the model is open for improvement, too) I think I am going… -
Re: In Need of Feedback on Medieval Weapons
This is a really interesting concept with a lot of potential for environmental storytelling. (Broken items are abandoned then made useful again as the branches grow through them, branches continue to grow and strengthen the items as the player levels up, etc.) As far as the sculpting goes: the branches and roots that weave… -
Looking for some portfolio feedback, purty please
Hellooo Polycounters. I recently posted this on my couple-week-old thread, but as I had feared, it was too deep within the bowels of the internet to garner any interest (except Toxic_H2O's :D thanks) As of now I am a fresh-outta-school 3D artist looking for work, specifically, game environments, and was wondering if the…
