Re: Warhammer 40k: SPACE MARINE
I bought 2 copies expecting a co-op campaign and i should have cancelled one :( (in the Relic forums they said it was a co-op game, LIES!!!!), so now i'm terribly disappointed with the game. The "free DLC" of "exterminatus" is like a bad joke for me, free huh? don't make me laugh. They rushed a lot in the development and… -
Re: After work, do you have time and energy to work on personal projects?
I have always done personal work after the day job, and it has been quite satisfying. The main reason has mainly been just to recreate my own ideas, scratch that itch as it were, and maybe, in a secondary manner to learn more skills to keep relevant. Over the last three years though, just as an experiment I dropped… -
Re: Smoothing groups, Tangents and Binormals, Triangulate
Hi, I'm very sorry for the delayed response on our forums. I posted there as well. Substance Painter will read the soften/harden data set in Maya when you export as FBX. This data is used to shade the mesh in the Painter viewport similar to maya based on vertex normal smoothing. In maya you are smoothing/hardening the… -
Re: smoothing groups on maya ?
Hi, your hard surface workflow is obsolete, now artists use the rounded edge shader (aka bevel shader) of Blender Cycles 2.79.1+ (free) or Modo, VRay, Houdini and Redshift because it works with every topology so you can use substract booleans modifiers everywhere and it works great with text too. The meshes gets rounded… -
Re: How do Americans reconcile the concept of bootstraps with being a nation of fatasses?
UK is getting bad as well. Like the kids here, its sugar. http://itn.co.uk/9ad80ee325a2cbaf213b740c2fa210f7.html Its actually a catch 22. There was a recent link to processed food possibly causing depression. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/8334353.stm Poor people cannot afford to spend the money that less processed… -
Re: Convincing 3d that looks like 2d.... Wow
Basically the key to understanding the approach is to remember their workflow on Blazblue: all the sprites were based on prerendered 3D that were already extremely close to the final result. What they have done is they have switched prerendred for real-time and not really changed anything else. That is to say, the… -
Re: [Portfolio] Sarah Dahlinger, (looking for work and critique)
I'm no expert, so take my comments in stride; I believe he means you painted highlights unto your diffuse. Instead paint subtle highlights and use a normal map to do most of the highlights and shadowing on your model. To create a decal, draw up the decal then make sure you have an alpha for it, either as a seperate file or… -
Re: [Portfolio] Amauri Ploteixa, Illustrator and Character Artist
What do you mean by "I still want to be a character artist" ? You are not currently a character artist ? With your talent ? About your portfolio, one thing : it's not a portfolio. It's a blog, we read it like a blog. And I think this is the problem. We can change the way we display the stuff, it's funny but also painful. I… -
Re: [Portfolio] Sarah Taylor
First, I really hate it when people say, 'dark backgrounds make your images pop' -- that statement is an untrue as 'light backgrounds make your images pop'. You know what makes something pop? Contrast. If you don't have that contrast in the image, then get it in the framing device. See flicks portfolio there, with the… -
Re: Nebakanezer interior scene
Good work, and it's nice to see that you're keeping your poly-count in check, which seems to be rare among students. The lighting seems to be the biggest problem here. You really should take the time and think of all the places you could squeeze new lights, and look at other scifi scenes for ideas. You may even have to…
