Re: hair techniques
i use polyplanes, roughly shaped like the desired haircut and layer them. since they are irregularly shaped, i usually have to uv them individually and later in the process create a few copies, mirror and tweak those to create more volume. for long hair i model a guidemesh and use clothsim to shape the planes as desired. i… -
Re: [Finished] Weapon Art - McMillan CS5 (Sniper)
I finally had some time to finish up the high poly: I decided to cut out making the bipod for the weapon to save on time.

Re: Solved: Inconsistent behavior in my NDO session when trying Workflow Primer tutorial

Re: How do i make a specular map?
This will depend on exactly how your skin shader works and what the sub-dermis map defines exactly. But yeah, again probably not a map you should just wait until the end to make, as previewing your diffuse work without even a basic sub-dermis map will mean you'll end up adding stuff to the diffuse that should probably go… -
Re: Zbrush4 texture from polypaint. VERY ODD
Layers! Truth is ZB was never meant to have layers work with Polypaint, it was a happy mistake that they decided to keep around, warts and all, and since many peeps tend to know how to tackle it, they never bothered fixing it.
