Toony Style Next gen
This is often something ive been working on lately....but I cant figure out the right approaches or ideas to this... ok what I mean by toony style next gen is game models that have a more painterly look to it but still show there normals + spec maps clear as day. in example… -

Re: Sharing UV map for baking normal
my bad I will explain it with more examples. usually if you want to bake normal map for mirror object you take the half uv and send it to other side and bake it right. for this example, it's not mirror object so doing this will be fine for baking ? as you can see I share uv island for the top and bottom so is this process… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Armanguy's Portfolio crit/ Work thread
I think that you need some examples of organic modeling. for example you could make some trees and plants of various types. maybe think of doing some kind of feature organic prop, similar to how they here done in Turok. I think all in all your work is looking good but your normal maps are not reading very well. also i… -

Re: Baking issues, before and after baking normal map
Hi! By now you probably put your plan into action. When you're generally happy with the shading achieved by the modifier, you could apply it as a starting point. Personally, I define sharp edges while checking the mesh shading, placing UV seams at the same time (unwrapping in Blender). I had another look at the model, so… -
Re: Artist exercises. (Formerly: Upping the ante on our next challenge(s).)
Zwebbie: You're getting hung up on examples of limitations. That list was examples. For instance: Don't use the colour grey. That's a limitation. I wasn't specifying them to be cliches individually but just examples of limitations so people were encouraged to draw away from cliches. Paul was right in that something like… -
Re: Skew you buddy! Making sense of skewed normal map details.
Awesome, thanks for that! @EQ: Thanks a lot for the write up. I realize the examples for the problems of the tessellation method are just that: broken down examples and caveats to look out for. But I'd say that in many cases like the cylinder, you might have set up smoothing groups for the lowpoly anyway and could do a… -
Re: Skull and Bones - AAAA game
To me, AAA / AAAA is primarily a marker of budget and production scale, not a guarantee of quality or depth. Skull and Bones feels more like an example of how a long, complex production combined with live-service constraints can erode systemic depth, even when a significant amount of resources has been invested. -
Re: Help me to become a better 3D artist! :)
Well, "shouldn't have modeled" is a bit strong. I was talking more specifically about edges that could be removed. For example, you could remove the edges in red and add the ones in green to keep it all quads/tris. About modeling the circular piece, it all depends on how close it'll be see in game and at what angle. If…
