Re: Torture Knife
The surface area of the whole object is monotone. Is there a reason for why the cutting edge has the same surface quality as the non-cutting surfaces? -
3D Artist – Specialist in Stylized PBR and Handpainted
Hi, I'm a 3D Artist focused on props and environments for games. Specialized in handpainted and PBR texturing workflows, low-poly and high-poly modeling, and optimization for real time engines like Unreal Engine and Unity. Skills - PBR Workflow - Handpainted Texturing - UV Mapping and Unrwrapping - Hard Surface Modelling… -
Substance painter settings and UE5 Substrate material settings.
What Substance workflow + export settings would you use to get the best results in UE5 using the new Substrate materials? Mainly to prevent 'white fringes' problem that was common in the UE metalness workflow around gradual transitions between metal and non-metal materials like dirt and paint? So basically a 'specular' PBR… -
Re: UGV Scorpion
Hi guys thanks for the feedback, Agreed the texture usage does seem excessive but there is a reason behind it. That is why there's a breakdown incoming. As are some additional shots to see the material definition better. In this shot the key light is above and behind the visible metallic surfaces so you're not seeing… -
Re: level art Art test
Hey Arman, I've seen your stuff around forums on the web. Thought I'd give some crits. Overall, the models aren't too bad, restrictions considered. Nonetheless, w/ such low tri counts, you really need to focus on the silhouette. Render it out and show just the alpha mask. Can you make out what it is? Second are the… -
Re: What's the Best Way to to make Filigree and Ornamental 3D Objects?
Yes i model the downward extrusions pointing outwards a bit on purpose (even tho it's not like that in the refs) so that when i bake normal maps it catches more depth info. In Blender it's easy to model it like that to begin with since you can model with a line and then fill in the polygons. What you could do instead is… -
Re: Understanding averaged normals and ray projection/Who put waviness in my normal map?
As I understand it, if you've got a UV seam it costs nothing to also make that a hard edge. I've never really understood the bevel workflow, so hopefully you can help me out with this. When you put in a single segment bevel, you end up with the normals still smooth over the whole surface, which the normal map then has to… -
Re: is this a normals issue or something else?
Yay for crappy wacom handwriting! Basically what is happening here is that you're trying to stretch a square over a curved surface. Think of quads as DVD's, you may be able to bend a DVD a little bit over a curved surface but if you do it too much you'll snap it in two. It's a little bit like that with geometry that gets… -
Re: Game-Ready Vampiress Character — Geisha & Insect Hybrid (Finished)
I began by blocking out the entire model, focusing on accurate anatomy and correct proportions. The organic 'bug' elements and soft meshes were sculpted in ZBrush, while the remaining components were created using both Maya and ZBrush. For pore detailing, I used Texture XYZ scans with ZWrap. The rest of the model’s surface… -
Re: Question for professional 3D character artists
overwatch can be anything from a tracer, which is just one character asset and 2 guns, to a d.va that is a character, a mech, two sets of guns with pistol and mecha guns. or say ramattra which is essentially 2 pretty damn complex characters, bastion is a ton o pieces which have to work perfectly together to be…
