Things that you should learn to achieve good results is: - PBR, which helps you understand what values can be used for specific type of materials like plastic, metal, or wood, http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/PBR - Lighting is also pretty much important. A lot of people use too much of light objects which often flatten…
Hi, my name is Anne-Cathrin Sachs and I am a Junior 3D Artist in Germany. I'm currently looking for a position in the industry and I'm willing to relocate anywhere in Germany. I mostly do character and props. Artstation: https://www.artstation.com/annecathrinsachs Work Samples: Low-Poly handpainted Character. Wishing Well…
Not to start an unreal vs unity question, but everyone on 3D art section of this forum is using Unreal to display their work. Maybe OP could learn Unreal instead of unity. People mention learning PBR and unity. But, some post seem to suggest unity doesn't even have PBR or you need to do some heavy stuff just to make it…
I have a strange bug in 3do while I am using c+shift+click! A "Quick PBR" panel pops up in front of the material browser. When I click the material browser, it goes behind the 3do but it is still there. I think there is a sorting problem. The Quick PBR appears also when I use C+click in 3do. Is this function intentional? I…
I have a feeling you have placed a layer in the incorrect order or blended it in Photoshop. And yes you can import your own normal map when you start a project in DDo. Using PBR in maya i forgot where to plug it in lol, but make sure when you use the PBR shader in maya to change the limit of lights it can use as by default…
Thanks Tobbo. Here is a small update on the PBR stuff I took Monophobe's advice and added more surface texture to the leather bits. I've made a few small changes to the metals. At the moment, I'm using specular instead of metalness. Given that UE4 uses metalness, I think it might be the way to go when doing PBR materials.…
Most people here are artists, so you might get fewer replies than you expect. Who is this for, though? This doesn't look bad per se, but why would you want to go through the pain of doing something like this on a phone at all? "Doodling" on public transportation? Programming in bed? Or is this for people who don't have a…
Well it's the same if you do it manually, correct - if the file isn't in a BMP compatible format then you have to deal with dialog boxes. My old action did force its way through without nagging me though. Anyway I found out that Apple Script isn't going to work for what I require, which is to trigger this function through…
With PBR workflows, usually not. Unless some dumbass decides to use viewport renderer in c4d or 3DS max. Unless it's unity. Unity has this very distinct deep fried smooth look to it. Something about the color management & lighting system in unity is just outright incorrect. No, it's not just set up wrong, or the wrong use…
