Hi there, I am trying to define the local coordinates of my mesh's vertices. Here is what I have for the moment if I output the x local vertex coordinates of my mesh in a shader. The pivot is located in the center of the sphere and as you can see, the x local coordinate goes from 0 (center of the sphere, pivot position) to…
I may rework the character model geometry in the future, at the moment I just wanted to focus on the lighting. I felt that the 2018 model was very poorly lit with the materials not being defined (like subsurface) and little to no definition of the form, shape and details. By adding some rim lights and reworking the…
Basically just fill the gaps in what ever way you find works the best visually. This is a good opportunity to think about the major forms and what supports the silhouette. If it doesn't add to it then it probably doesn't need to be modeled and can be defined in the maps. Still depends a lot on what you're going for…
Hey RMunday, I wrote some notes on syncsketch about the poses. I think you should hold off on the splines and go back to focusing on poses. I have trouble exaggerating my work too. I find it helpful to look at other animations and see how far they push it. After pushing your key poses further, you should define your…
* The stitch down the front-center unrealistically fades into a smooth surface - I would either continue the stitch-fold below the logo, to the bill, or completely remove it. * Lighting the object will allow its normal maps (if any) and the rest of the shader to better define the material surfaces you're working to figure…

Since you already have the sewing pattern, you could try the Cloth modifier. Trace the two shapes with splines, apply the Garment Maker modifier or Subdivide set to Delaunay, copy (edit: reference) and arrange very roughly like shown by Eric, define the connected seams and simulate in place with some internal pressure. If…

Cole hit the nail on the head, but I think its important to give a practical example as well. Go into your kitchen, and look under your fridge. Its dark under there, right? This is because the light source is occluded. Now, go grab a flash light and shine it under the fridge. The previously occluded area is now illuminated…
