Re: Why you should NOT trust 3ds Max's viewport normal-map display!
I can't post that example its under NDA :) The texture has changed from the OS map generated by max, but doesn't match the tangent map from maya, it's still very object-y looking. I'm not going to plough any more time into fiddling with this at the moment, I want to press on with the production work instead, confident that… -
Re: Feedback from those who know about 3D art.
You asked for it. Remember you can also ignore this post. If you did not appreciate the response. Long story short; its very cold & mechanical but i don't see much cuteness & fun factor, (for me). Think a stylized approach to this kind of design would've spoken louder than a startwars rolling bot (one of the many they seem… -
Re: Gina (critique welcome)
A detour or not, depending on how you look at it. I was trying to understand eye refraction. After finding some examples, attempted to recreate the effect... and it sort of looked correct. There was just that one issue I spent a good deal of forever chasing down. The whole thing distorts depending on whether you look along… -
Re: Efficient Use of Texture Sheets
Right. So the reference isn't for any one specific item. I understand the principles of efficient UV use, but the reference is more for providing a visual example to other people. Good packing is easy to find, but getting examples of reuse is what is tripping me up. People are happy to reuse textures in modular environment… -
Re: [FINISHED] - UE5 Realtime Metahuman - Ryan Gosling: Drive
For my Artstation setup I was mainly looking at an awesome, recent character art post: Exiled Pink Knight by SeungHwan Jeong. My character is much simpler in comparison, but I took what I could in terms of how to present work well. So I took some headshots in Sequencer and MRQ, and also took some screenshots of my… -
Re: Photo Scanning Pikachu
Plush is probably not the best choice for (detailed) photo scanning, as the deeper parts between the hair are obscured pretty quickly when you change your position and you'd need a crazy resolution to scan the actual hair. The overall falloff/fresnel effect caused by this might not matter that much, but could still play a… -
Re: Material Studies?
you can try learning by rough and smooth surfaces (glossy). This is base for classify a lot of materials, but of course, there are few exceptions like rubber materials, that can be smoothness but not necessarily have to emit or reflect the light like some glossy materials, cuz rubber materials absorve too much the light.… -
Re: Edge Constrain in Modo?
I'm was not being dismissive(english is not my first language, and never knew "shenaningans" could have such a negative connotation, and for that I apologize), I'm well aware of the flexibility of the system, it's just that after conducting a few experiments last night I started to get the conclusion that what could be a… -
Re: Looking for 3D Modeller / Artist.
Hello, Jonathan. Here are a few examples of my work, https://www.artstation.com/alvordr. In the past, I've focused on organic modeling, but more recently have been mainly concentrating hard-surface modeling since I also do 3D printing. Feel free to DM me here if you want to collaborate. -
Re: WIP -Stylized Katana Sword
I ran some render tests and some of the ambient shadows were too strong(the metal piece at the bottom of the sheath, for example), but that was just because the object weren't close enough to eachother. The rest of the model was fine, so I decided to move on to texturing. I also prepared an ID map to have an easier time…
