Your cylinders all seem to have the same number of sides, regardless of their size. Thus, the base and the outer cylinder appear blocky, while the inner part has too many. 20 or 24 sides would probably work well for the outer cylinder, but the base might need as many as 32. The inner cylinder seems to contain a healthy…
Thanks Michaelf, that seems to have worked fine. Thanks, Gnoop. I tried that but it caused some issues with texture blurring in the later steps. My workflow ended up looking like this: Photoscan to ZBrush Workflow 1. Export model to .obj (.FBX export with textures works until the end when the textures appear to blur, so I…
Buy what you want now, within reason(don't buy super high end stuff, the price curve always represents a terrible value). No reason to save $50-150 or so just to skimp on something you really wanted, don't buy into the "upgrade later" mentality, just buy what you want now and forget about it for a few years. I've built too…

Wassup, fellas, it's me again! As some of you may already know, lately I've been given a permission to pimp some Natural Selection II stuff I textured. At that time I thought it would be nice to put up a little environment to render the assets in, so I've got to work. Later on I exported the NS II aliens into UDK only to…
One of the easiest ways to reduce page response time is by optimizing your website images to reduce their file sizes as much as possible. Optimizing images not only makes your web pages load faster, but also reduces your bandwidth consumption, which can translate to significant savings in your hosting bills. There are…

I've spent days trying to resolve these problems so i figure if anywhere has any semblance of a solution, it's polycount. I'm a student artist using Second Life as a platform since it's easy to collaborate on. Anyway, the problem: (picture speaks a thousand words) (uploaded image is a JPG for forum friendliness, i realize…
