Proxy Materials and Objects - Vray/Maya
Hi folks! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I have a couple of questions in regards to referencing objects and materials. What I'd like to do is create a library of materials and a library of more complex objects (with hundreds of parts) that would be used again and again for various projects. Then pull those objects… -
Re: maxon zbrush shady practices
Honestly you won't believe how many artists use pirated copies of zbrush. I'm 100% certain that every artist on the zbrush Screensaver has used a pirated zbrush atleast once. Wish pixologic would have sold zbrush to epic or valve rather than Maxon. I know of many artists that use pirated zbrush and then claim the output is… -
Re: I love and hate midjourney
@Tiles It is 100% theft, because the models are trained on datasets full of stolen / scraped images. The entire business model of these companies is based around the illegal use of millions of scraped images. -
Re: Convincing rust in Substance
You could spend hours and hours tweaking procedural masks or making super complicated and slow working node graph in Substance Designer . People manage to reach amazing results with that out of pure sport like approach. Still each new seed/generation would be slightly off of what you really want. So in my experience you… -
Re: Ubisoft joins Blender Development Fund
It is 1.2 million over 3 years. So it is not a one lump sum they can use all at once. So not great, but not bad either. What is the cost of time and money for a studio like Ubisoft to 100% convert over to Blender? Say, for example, Ubisoft took 4 weeks where every studio in their umbrella was 100% idled and only doing… -
Re: Summer Character Workshop - The Baker
Hi! I really love this, you did a wonderful job of translating the shapes to 3d. With the mouth/front of the face, I couldn't explain what I would suggest, but I've done a paintover/gif to show how I would approach getting something that works in 3d and matches the feel on the concept. I wouldn't worry about getting… -
Re: Why am I being charged monthly for providing free sample pack? (Gumroad)
Tbh even 250 a month isnt expensive compared to some other email list options like mailchimp or awebber. If you have an email list of 10k people and cant figure out how to make atleast 250 a month thats just bad business. 10k subs at a conservative 2-4% conversion rate on a even a 40 dollar product nets you $8-16k. Thats… -
Re: Next Gen Characters Progress Thread II
Do you want to hear a story here it's a really good one. About back to square one. I remember I tried to learn piano once, followed everything the instructor said word by word. Taking my time like you suggested,listening and following the instructor, but maybe too much time. For It had been 2-3 months, and I could play the… -
Re: Warhammer 40k inspired Tank
Here is what i would try for the plastic lens. Add convex shape for the lens in the normal map, and maybe some details like vertical grooves on lens (depending on how much space you have left there, details may or may not be doable) Then set up that part to be 100% non metal and 100% glossy, then take it from there and… -
