Hey guys, Doing a piece for the Creature and Critters competition on CGcoach and thought it wouldn't hurt to post it up here and see what you all think of it. For the contest you are required to come up with a story concept and high poly model. The wining model will be print in 3d by Moddler.com, so the model must be very…
The short answer is yes. With some research and experience it is possible to look at a single picture and get a rough idea of what coating was used but it's not going to be perfectly accurate. There's a lot of contextual information missing and in this case a single picture on it's own isn't representative of anything…
In general right now, the pieces as they stand have potential but I feel the only thing that really stands out to me is that they are generally a bit dull, there's not much story telling and more like a clean plated environment where it kind of says "Here's the environment" I feel you could push these pieces (all of them)…
Cross posting in case you don't want to wade thru the whole thread to git to the end results and a modifier revision: most folk r using the alt rmb fer scale navigation in Maya. Now that the Roger is alt rmb-n' wit zSwitcher... tis time to free the key and un-scramble my brain's viewport. ( new hot key is ctl-mmb ) (…
Oddly enough I never said I was defending "over the top rust and grime," I'm not entirely sure where you picked that up. Rather, I'm saying that there are plenty of situations where a realistic level of grime is more that you apparently believe in. Low humidity is a preserver for biological things far more than anything…
Don't have access to Scans, Don't have access to Scans (you can guess why :P). Marvelous Designers I tried as well, but it seems like it doesn't play nice with Prefabs (ei; pre-made clothing in external packages) since it needs edges where seams connects to make the compressions work (please note I did try messing around…
just had one of those moments of clarity...... I've been making the high poly versions of things like the jetty, doing all sides.... only to come to the realisation that I could have just done 2 sides at most (due to it being rectangular) and shared the uv space for the normal maps..... NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!! :poly142:…
Good read Adam. Did you ever research live events? On the NWN/NWN2 mod I am involved with we have done live world changing events where players were responsible for doing quests that would change the course of the server. One example is an event where I built a series of levels for a war we wanted to cut loose on the…
Another day, fairly fresh out of bed. Yesterday's work incoming. Hopefully this google drive website thing works so I can actually embed my images instead of attaching all of them? If so, I'll make sure my previous images are available there and update the earlier posts to embed them. Warmup: Sky Rose: The warmup was a…
This is a brand new version, rebuilt from scratch. Everything is still WIP. I tried getting a little closer to the concept. Major things left to do are re-add the pipes, fix the glass shader(it's way too plain and unnoticeable), finish water particles, add a water-turbine-thing, and finish lighting. and dat POM…
