Re: Sketchbook: Haley Lee
My process for the Camaro ZL1 I used CAD data and prepped the vehicle for production (including applying materials). Then I designed the layout for my scene. Next, I build the road and post in RailClone. I also created the lighting using an HDRI and the camera animation. I sculpted and textured the mountain in the… -
Re: Physically based Bus (Unreal Engine 4)
I've been there.. I even got it on record.. http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=81810 I loved to start projects back in the day. I think I have around 35 open projects that will NEVER be done. For me it was part of the process of becoming the artist I'm today. Looking back, and the advice I gave a friends just… -
Re: Polycount's Sketch Thread!
Sketch @knacki maybe get some Noisy brushes for vegetation etc, and some texture brushes for rocks and ground. But in general its more about how you use your brushes, If you dont know how to use them they wont help you. Obviously you probably want some textury brushes etc but John Park did some great environments with a… -
Re: A beginners object modeling. CC requested!
For the flower, you can definitely use planes for the petals. There's no need to model such complex geometry for a single flower. There are two ways you could get around this, both using alpha/opacity maps. When it comes to vegetation in games, modeling out individual leaves and details is obviously going to create a… -

If that's a bit much, feel free to find a "i can has vegetable soup" thread. There's sites out there that rate companies, and there is… -
Re: Decal technique from Star Citizen
660 polys on the decal mesh, 1600 polys on chamfered surface (same vertex count as with hard-edged unchamfered version as it's just using face weighted normals with one smoothing group). Most of the surface polycount is down to nicely shaped seams between material IDs, - the less you need those (e.g. if you don't need seam… -
Re: Feedback needed - Concrete Texture Test
Here are a couple pics of what I'm trying to achieve. I'd like to capture the look of the imprints of the form work. As far as color and wear, it would be a lot different since these are present day pictures and I'm trying to recreate it as it was back around June of '44. As far as noise I'm really not sure as to how much… -
