Re: Realistic Texturing Techniques, Tips and Guides
See the links that were posted in the thread. You don't have to use a cloud filter for every texture. Just a solid color is good, and if you're aiming for realism, attempt to use some noise and even multiply it with other textures you can find on the web. Texturing is really just observation of real world materials. Don't… -
Re: UDK destruction
Hi walrus, I was inspired by the "Pushing for largescale destruction" presentation by one of EPIC's effects artists which can be found as a PDF if googled. I chose to replicate the workflow as much as i could which meant creating the animatations in maya with physics simulators, then transfering the animation to joints… -
Re: In need of critique on my character sculpt
And seriously, stop smoothing everything. Just replicate one of the planar face models we gave you, and then we'll talk about edging it closer to realism or whatever else you're aiming for. Foundations first, confusion later. You don't need to confuse yourself with steps that come later, just focus on what's right in front… -
Re: WIP Low Poly Building
Oh yeah, now that you mention it, i see what you mean! Looks like the door with the steps in front could just be the access to the flats above and the wooden one is the actual shop door. I look forward to seeing the changes. It's a crazy concept. I only just noticed the rune like sign above the door. I wonder what the… -
Re: Paintings ...
After looking up Giger's woman I see what you mean. That really goes back to the question then of are you trying to replicate Giger's style or are you trying to create something inspired by his work? It's not an either or thing, just trying to determine where you're placing the slider to dial in suggestions. In regards to… -
Re: Monthly Noob Challenge 4
Mentaly drained, learning 3dsmax and trying to replicate something its mind draining, specially when I could this in a heartbeat in maya. Its becoming more and more tempting to switch. But I got to remain strong as id like to be fluent on both 3d programs :/ Going to bed. My progress So far. The blockout is rather empty.… -
Re: (NSFW) Silly Female for 3D print
Ha ha, nice! I always love the updates to your thread here mate. There's some really nice color gradation going on in those sandstone prints - just wish the detail replication for that material was sharper. The 'fuzzy' textures never seem to do your sculpts justice. Is that barbarian going to be printed as well, or just… -
Re: 3dsmax Modeling Stones - Tutorial
Very nice Sascha! I've replicated the process in Blender... with a twist that turns out to be useful. The fractals could be better, but essentially, I was having trouble getting them to scale correctly, so I bound the mapping to three balls, which you can scale, rotate and move about to predictably alter the three… -
Re: Riot Art Contest 2014 - Q&A
VFX Question: Do vfx that closely mimic or replicate Riot's current vfx art style and restrictions get a more favorable judging over those that are just super fancy? ex: Hand painted diffuse textures, no lights etc. over something with dynamic lighting and complex shaders? This is a strictly art style question, assuming… -
Re: How to improve?
Quickest way to improve is find reference of the art style you're trying to replicate and practice! Put yours next to what you like and compare the visual aesthetics. Solid round brush with lowered opacity to keep details from getting muddy/soft. Start with large forms and work your way down in size. Keep checking…
