I think the context is important - Youtube is non-interactive so you might as well play to the strengths of controlling the edit and movement. When you're demoing live to people, they're a lot more forgiving because they're in control. Just my 2c, doesn't take away one iota, this is phenomenal work. Colour me jealous.
Update: This is her blocked in with values. Just so you can get the feel and depth of her. I'm actually still undecided on background but I might make it something Ionia based seeing as that's her place of origin. Or even Demacia her current residence.
Ok, i see. The IOR issue is a general problem with Octane i guess. Did some test today and this is the closest i got to matching 3Do. Hard to set up the light the same of course. HDRi enviroment map on the Octane render frame. Looks a bit more stylized in 3Do and more natural in Octane but i prefere the 3do look. Guess i…
They do have a lot to do with each other, but I think you misunderstand the differentiation I'm making. This has actually been discussed with visuals somewhere, but I can't remember where at the moment. Consider the fact that the metalness workflow in games functions by, in a single shader sample, lerping between a ~1.5…
What would you like to see? I'm making sure I am check the box for "Use cage" and I've been doing some trial and error for the past hour and here is what I've come up with so far. When I export the low poly model in xNormal's file type I set the High Poly model to be hidden (when I exported before I had both models in the…
a crappy art asset shown in marmoset is still crappy. dont get easily impressed by the good lighting right away, look closer and you will see the true quality of art despite of the lighting. you still need good technical knowledge to make something look good in marmoset. just take a look at the material tutorials in…
First off, I think its important to explain a couple terms: 1. Index of refraction is a method to set base reflectivity or specular intensity, similar to the spec map or metalness map input workflows. For IOR, you can used measure scientifically accurate values based on the IOR scale. It looks like the value would be about…
