Re: Looking for feedback and guidance – 3D Artist seeking job opportunities
I would agree with what has been said already - right now is a very difficult time to get jobs in general. It looks like you know the workflows technically, but your works are too basic/not complex enough for a full portfolio piece. What I mean by that is not that you should start creating huge environments or characters,… -
Re: Converting an Old Scene To Modular
A scene like this should be fairly simple to convert into modular assets. I would start by literally removing any geometry that is similar to any other piece. It also depends on how far you want to push the modularity, for example that centre piece (can't remember its name for the life of me) could be made up of 1 piece… -

Re: specular maps and normal maps
I was thinking for about specuar maps and it occurred to me that use a texture could in some ways interefere with the specular look. For example a spec map would be used to make sure for example the beard line is not shiny (for a simple example) the cheeks nose etc would be normally be slightly shiny. Now using a texture ,… -
Re: dDo beta is OUT!
I Have some suggestions: - Patterns type 1: Patterns like layer styles (can be used for "details" effects within the alphas that are generated by Ddo. For example a custom grunge or scratch texture used as a fill for the Ddo detail. I believe these are being implemented in an upcoming version. - Patterns type 2: (Patterns… -
Re: Workflow Improvement Thread

3ds Max/Maya necessary for a future job in the Industry ?
Hi guys, I'm working with Maya for a while now, but I feel a lack of new features with Autodesk's 2015 softs. When I see both modo or Blender, I think that these softs have a more promising future than 3ds Max for example. Meshfusion is a good example IMHO. This is just an amazing feature. And the economical aspect is… -
Plasticity Learning Exercises
Hello! I started learning Plasticity recently and wanted to share some of my thoughts about the software. Maybe this will be interesting for people like me, who have a poly-modeling background and consider giving CAD a go. First of all I was pleasantly surprised how "artist" friendly Plasticity is. The interface is very… -
Re: Blender Texture Coordinates, is this even possible?
I now see this after answering the other.. simply: no. If you have a 2D texture then you can't simply pull this into 3D. It may work for example for some sand texture and you have somekind of sandheap.. but as mentioned: a brick texture changes if you "got into 3D" simply because the bricks are layed in some other pattern… -
Re: Alternate Reality Goku rendered in UE5
Good job on modelling the figure and the clothing. I dont know Goku and am not a fan, but humanizing a character seems pretty tricky. Here is a pretty good example I think. The hair eyes and elbows need work. Maybe try more realistic hair on your model, it looks like steel wool atm. Give him some elbows and remodel the…
