Re: [Portfolio] – Ilya Nedyal / Environment, Weapon and Vehicle Artist.
Guys big thanks for all those great comments! I'll try to answer for a few questions here: Martin Henriksson The train model actually uses a mirrored sides and all the bottom area is just copied models. Jet_Pilot The render setup is a different for each model, I was trying to find a best setup with lots of testing, but in… -
Re: Tiling texture vs unique unwrap
I was thinking about that last night passerby. I can just have all the tiling textures in map channel 1, masks in map channel 2, and light map in 3. I originally had the 3 brick textures with their own UVs because the bricks were different sizes on the texture sheet. I just need to match the scale of them in PS which I… -
Re: Transformers 2: Worst Movie of the Year (Multiple Categories!)
TF2 was rushed as hell, if you watch closely there are even some reused scenes from the first movie (asteroids falling) and there's a scene with Soundwave that is seen twice too. I love the first one, but the second had too many problems from outset that hurt the production. First off, the writers strike meant that Bay… -
Re: Low Poly Male Human
Thanks for the tips. I will be working on creating unique silhouettes as soon as I actually go into the individual character creation. But thanks for the reminder. I think getting the silhouettes will be hard especially for and RTS game. right now I just want a good base shape with good mesh that i can then create… -
Re: Titan Quest
Hopefully we will catch most of the issues in the patch. I think we did go a little crazy with the graphics but we wanted something that could hold up graphically for a while to come. Try to keep the shader quality on high as medium drops out the bump maps all together (low kills the poly grass). Im going to be posting… -
Re: do you prefer working from concept or designing your own creations?
**I'm replying out of work context and just for personal benefit** This decision is based off what avenue you are trying to pursue. You can be a artist who models from concept only but the con to that is you don't fully develop all artistic skills. Some of these skills are color theory, flow, shape contrast, silhouette/… -

Re: Mesh Building and Unwrapping Help [Specific]
I think a lot of the answers to your questions are simply a matter of preference. Game modeling has some strict rules, but with high poly modeling to the best of my understanding you have a bit more freedom. That depends on how you want it to look. Are you okay with having identical columns? Are there any asymmetrical… -
Re: Dota 2 Monthly Community Competition #15 - May
Game is hard on forums, but i think you got some really good feedback on other things besides your actual model a good concept artists is really hard to find with free time, same as modelers, animators... my suggestion would be to get a guy trying to improve the skills like you and you both learn together. or you can try… -
Re: Floaters or extra triangles - what's best performance wise?
Racer's little minitutorial, while helpful only really covers one side of the issue, there are certain pros and cons to each. pros of using more mesh chunks: 1. Can use less geometry 2. Can use "cleaner" geometry, ie less long thin triangles, which are generally bad cons of using more: 1. Much harder to get a "seamless"…
