That can be true. But. There is a recommendation for using a bit of exaggeration when using rounded edges with normal maps. The same applies for details in general in my opinion. And I apply this on every 3d art, when its possible, whether its modeled or normalmapped. I try to make the bevels visible from further too, so…
I don't even look at it as a choice really. I don't do this because I want to, I do this because I have to. It's just not possible for me to not be doing art. It's also how I got into this, I had access to a life-drawing class and did it for fun, and just couldn't stop. Then I found out about GA and PC and realized that I…
The proportions are well off - while the height is reasonable at ~8 heads, the mesh gets progressively broader from the head to the feet. The shoulders are narrow (1.6 vs 2 heads wide), but the hips are too thick (1.8 heads vs. 1.5) and the thighs, calves, and feet remain too thick. While I realize the proportions are for…
This does not look chibi. There are still things that need to be maintained when working with chibi, otherwise it will just look like you made a mistake. My initial reaction was that you were calling it chibi as an excuse to avoid doing proper proportions. A lot of good examples of "chibi" can be found here:…
I'm not sure if this is what you're asking exactly but adobe camera raw or any raw converter can adjust exposure in stops like you would for bracketing. So just take your medium exposure, and then do a -2, and a +2 and save them all(though you may need to kill the exif data or else it will confuse your HDR app). How far…
I personally loved the twists towards the end and beat the main quest at 111 hours, no joke! I'm now playing through again and this time am looking for more of the sidequests before getting caught up in the story. There appears to be a surprising number of quests and locations that I did miss even when I thought I saw it…

I think it looks good! What happened to the broken parts that you wanted to model in? You could model out some trims on the bottom of the fountain like in this example. If they are not too exessive you could even get away with it without baking it anew. If you're not quite sure how to do it check out this tutorial. She…
The problem I have is that maya just won't fire up gozMaya.mll :( Zbrush's goz seems to run maya 2018 but also sends no data back. Everything seems to work in 2017 but 2018 just won't recognize the plugin no matter if i browse for it or copy it into the plugin path. Is there a different version of gozMaya.mll that I am…
