Re: Learning tips! How do you empower your brain to make art?
Training is extremely overrated imo, it just makes me very tired and uncreative (i trained for 20 years on and off, mostly weight lifting - it didnt do anything to mood or creativity). Eating healthy is a must though. Coffee is a must too ;) (sometimes other drugs, but not too often, once a month at most. Your mileage may… -
Re: Losing Your Artistic Voice to Convenient Asset Packs
problem is some of the packs are terrible and you don't get to choose them most of the time I have had packs where the high res model has a normal map on it for the details ie they have just taken the MD triangulated model in to substance and detailed it. so then trrying to match a retopo version becomes really tricky or… -
Whats the difference between using baked AO map in the AO slot and just merging it into my texture?
I baked out my normal, AO, and height maps from hi to low poly in Marmoset. Now I've' imported all my meshes into a single Substance Painter file using an FBX and I could apply each of the the individual AO maps to the AO map layer or I could just add them as an additional layer for the diffuse texture layer. Any reason to… -

Re: What software is needed for a complete 3D modelling work-flow?
Just getting into 3d isbe quite challenging. And getting the prop modelling gig aint the easiest. Since most like it so much so they tend stick to that once they get it. To myself, its a dream gig. Just make models and get payd for it. Nowadays thats something i do for fun, then sell the modells on turbosquid for… -
Re: Supporting Edges vs Bevels vs Creasing for 3d game art and cinematics?
supporting edges / quad chamfers and creases are sorta same same but different. supporting edges give you better control over the edgequality, as in, its always going to be the same width as per your setting, while with creases the result is highly based on the surrounding geo. its just a slight mindset shift, creases are… -
Triplanar projection just producing random noise instead of projecting the texture
Either I'm missing something or triplanar projection is broken, when I enable triplanar it doenst project the image it just seemingly produces random noise: Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? -
GDC Beer Bust - Drakes` Stein
Latest progress: mode Hey all, After I finished my hand painted weapon "Gorehowl" I thought I`ll do a model for the Sketchfab Beer Bust challenge, this time all sculpted with PBR materials. PBR shaders and sculpting is something I do much less often than hand painted so I thought this could be a fun project :) I started… -
Re: Hybrid workflow for Designer – anyone tried this?
What you described is imo just most common way to work there. Nobody wastes time just for sake of potential scalability you may never need. If it's not a portfolio sport my guess.
