Re: Kevin Johnstone has passed
Oh man... that is really sad to hear. He was a cool fellow and good artist and imo a central part of what defines polycount. That was just too soon in any way possible. -

Re: What's the median roughness of asphalt material?
roughness is an average over an area so there's no correct value for a surface without taking that into account. measuring roughess and translating it into something that matches your specular model is probably all but impossible as such - as a surface gets further away from the viewer, progressively larger changes in… -

Re: 3ds max select and delite overlapping faces

Here are the updates, with explanations. I believe this is much better. Going for subtle details that aren't too much, not too dirty, but enough to look believable. I placed some intentional scrape marks where things would have happened in the past. it's a large, round vehicle so the big thing in the back would get hit,… -

Then defining your seam edges and create a spline-guide just to remind yourself. Then probably a polycount over divided into a part to… -
Re: Lead Artist having issues with a Junior Artist
totally agree with the above replies, just wanna give my 2 cents as well. I see three issues here. A. artist doing their own thing, and not what you want in terms of style - this could be either to the artist not being used to design (that is totally okay for a production artist imho) or you have to teach them what you… -
Re: Triangule the cage, but why?
