Re: WIP M5 Stuart Tank
You can still shave off quite a few polies for very little visual difference. For instance, those spiky wheels, make the spikes triangles instead of ever-so-slightly-curved-triangles, and you'll shave off a cool 1344 triangles. BAM. You can also cut out a few polygons (not quite that many though) in the suspension by… -
Re: North Korea declares "sacred war" on U.S.
It certainly does seem serious if only read the headline and not the article. Had this been the headline I doubt you'd be shitting your pants: North Korea 'We are ready for both talks and wars.' North Korea can best be likened to a child that keeps misbehaving in order to get attention. Kim Jong-Il operates under the… -
Re: First game ever played?
F%%k me, mate! I thought I was the only one sad enough to have done that. I remember one day I had off school I spent hours and hours typing out of a mag. The glossy 2-page spread showed a huge tank crashing over an embankment, cannon blazing. The feature in the mag promised an exciting simulation............hours and… -
Re: Gotham (TV series)
OK, first of, I have not seen the first episde, so take all this from a stubborn "harcore" nerd who things this is gonna ruin the cannon =P I think the idea of this is so silly, this will screw up so many things if the ever get to the actual "batman" timeline, all the characters will already know each other by then and… -
Re: King Tiger Tank finished and "postmortemed"
Really nice work, and nice breakdown. I agree with your technique not to model the entire hi-poly, it's a lot more efficient to only selectively model certain parts hi-poly, and do the rest of the detail work inside PS/CrazyBump. I like both versions, but the winter one is beautiful. I think the zimmerit came out real… -
Re: Mecha Series 36W
OldKid, konstruct, Deathtelmz, thanks for the compliment. OldKid, nice feedback. Actually I did that on purpose. The guns are sort of like heavy bombartment cannons so It is suppose to shoot up. The barrels make it look more like gatling guns though. haha But I guess I should lenghten the rotation axles so that he could… -
Re: Megatron - 3D Print - Transformable
Hey thanks guys. I wasn't sure how well this would be received because the high-poly work I felt was a bit plain. I'll post a couple more then. Unfortunately I don't have actual pictures of these next ones but supposedly it worked in the real-world. The Jet Nose can detach from his back and unfold into a Cannon. The first… -
Re: Michael Bay's Megatron.... (sigh)
[ QUOTE ] Your Megatron is brass, impetuous and foolish! Your Megatron trades tactical tips 'n' tricks with Starscream! Your Megatron's ass is handed to him when a stealthy Time Warner van transforms into Robo-Ninjasaur and twists his diodes into tinsel! Your Megatron blows! [/ QUOTE ] You're assuming that my Megatron… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Bartosz Guder, environment artist
The presentation app will only do so much, Serp. It's not a magic "make awesome" method to use UDk or marmoset. I feel most of the props could benefit from a better specmap (seems very uniform, like there is barely any contrast in the specmaps). Same with your dirt/grunge in the diffuse: a bit uniform on many of the props.… -
Re: F.E.A.R. Scared me shitless
Wow, great looking game. Great atmosphere...millions of times better then the multiplayer shitfest. Wow. Parallax mapping to create blasted out chunk effects on walls with the particle gun is awesome. (The effect is a tad weird when you get up close though) Particle cannon in slo-mo....drool. Charred skeletal…
