artstream - Thanks for your wisdom! Seriously, all of this makes quite a bit of sense to me. As far as the Trollbane UI goes, you are correct about the health/mana meters. Also, I should have assembled them correspondingly where they rightfully belong on the screen like you mentioned. I will fix that right up. Surfa - I'm…
ok decided to be stuborn about this and see what the difference between my mesh for sculpting versus the example that polyhertz gave me, I noticed that per sub division even though I was still able to eventually sculpt in the details of the eyes etc I could do the same amount of details with little to no pinch points…
This post based upon OP's numbers here http://polycount.com/discussion/171689/pbr-the-problem-with-greyscale-metalness#latest: I have several questions regarding this metalness usage plus a real-world example to ask questions about: (BTW this is not for game engines and targeted for 3DS Max renderers and such) 1.

Maybe you are using scheduled daily routine, or maybe it more spontaneously? Can 3D artist arrange your day without fatigue, or it's impossible thing to do? For example, one half of…

What can it do when you drop files from Windows Explorer into 3ds Max? * Automatically relink all missing textures on file drop. * Instantly open dropped proxy files…
Observation is a foundational skill honed over many years. As an example at art school our professors were sticklers for fine art tenets amassed over centuries of learning, wasn't even allowed near an easel until our collective both life and plein air drawings were met with approval. Human anatomy is extremely challenging…
I agree with @killnpc that having an artist to deal with all of this could help.
