Hi folks, my name is Jason and this is my Balrog-inspired character. I want to make a scene from The Fellowship of the Ring one day and I'll need this guy in it! I started by building a character in DAZ. I'm new to DAZ but what I was looking for wasn't too difficult to manage. I used 3Dxchange to bring the character into…
Hi guys, I am an Irish artist living in Munich for the last 1+ half years and am preparing to make the next jump to a new city at the start of the new year. I have gotten tired of Munich because of the lack of a young artsy culture and so want to start up shop in either Berlin or London. I am not seeking out a strong job…
A fun and challenging project, the AKM was modeled (to a certain point) following the "Ultimate Weapon Tutorial" by Tim Bergholz. Seeing the weapons from Metro Exodus inspired me to take it one step further. I tried my best to replicate the real AK and it's functionality. All in all, it was a great learning experience. I…
Hi, I'm new here, and I'm really confused. I personally like to paint my textures in Photoshop as my background is illustration. I often get the diffuse to where I like but have absolutely no clue how to create normals, AO and specular maps from it? From what I've seen in order to get normals you must make a high poly…

Doesn't looks that way. I had a hope anything convenient would appear soon two decades ago and here we are. In all honesty the content creation software doesn't look like evolving much in general. it evolved and frozen already with a few cosmetic changes each years and rarely something new. It's stack in old approaches ,…
Ok so have been really looking at the approach I took to this Project and I've decided to reflect on some mistakes ive made. 1. Planning And Sticking with the plan. So when I started this off i planned on doing just a bust, and all my thumbnails and sketches I drew were geared towards that, and the reference i collected…
[ QUOTE ] Of course, that's asside from what Ryno mentioned, the shitty hard drive. At MS's prices I'll NEVER upgrade my 360's hard drive. $160 - $180 for a 120GB harddrive? It must be made of titanium. [/ QUOTE ] If you think it's bad now, I don't think the next Xbox will even come with a hard drive. What we will most…
I am trying to use dDO to batch process textures for an environment, but I would like to output more than just diffuse, spec, height and gloss maps per material. Is it possible to add more maps like transmission, cube mask, etc? I know I could just set up a second project and preset and change the settings to make the…
Building off of what others have said, you need to add more to this scene to bring it to life, make it feel lived in. Reference is your best bet, but a few suggestions - Torn curtains or busted blinds (makes it more secretive/a hideout) - dirty this place up, make it feel like filthy, uncaring drug lords have been here. -…
