Yeah I know I lurk, so my post count is low. I usually don't have much to say. BUT! Today I scored my first 3D interview as a texture painter. It was over skype so it wasn't all too professional. ANYWAYS, one of the questions that was asked: I'm confused as to why use an alpha on a texture..... why can't I just doctorate…
Thanks guys, glad you like it. Still got a lot to do, but it's fun so it should be fairly easy to do! @ScribbleHead I'll try to gather some screenshots of the setup soon. I decided to work on some other stuff on the weekend so I'll get back to it monday :) @Blaisoid you're right, the proportions are a little off in nearly…
Hmmm. That started in the not-so-stable suburbs around Paris after the death of two young men and it seems like it's spreding now. I've not been to any of those districs recently tho. But there is something wrong in my opinion... on top of the fact that the minister in charge of inner safety/police has been acting like an…
Hi everyone. For this coming year at school, I've decided to work on a complete environment and characters (and hopefully make it some sort of super-simple mod?) using the UDK as a base. I will probably get help from some programmers later on so they can help me setting up the mod itself (seeing how characters won't move…
I've realized that while I keep getting better at actual poly modeling, I'm pretty much useless without a concept sketch to work from and at least top/side orthos to get me started. I just don't have a good eye for proportions or much in the way of an artistic sense. While of course I should overcome this, how much of a…
I know that sometimes when I use to draw a lot, that I'd start to notice that I seemed to be decreasing in skill. What I would then do is not draw for a while (talking like weeks or even a month or two) and then hop back on the doodle train and I'd have tons of ideas. 3D for me is a little different, it's harder for me to…
Hey Weazel, nice start so far, I was wondering about the bullet holes too before I read your last post! Does your assignment include marking for your low poly mesh itself or is it purely the bake? If it involves the mesh you might want to see if you can get rid of some polys from the low, it looks like there are some…
IDK, I really enjoy mine thus far, and I too am waiting for the next monster hunter game for it, sunk probably 200+ hours into Freedom Unite on my psp. I personally have high hopes for the future of the Vita, some minor concerns aside (the menu is fucking annoying..just give me the ps3 style one please?) The fact that it…
*One man, cloaked and clearly attempting to blend into the commotion, was headed for the residence of a Demacian diplomat attending the festivities as a showing of good nature between the two lands.* Too long of a sentence. The thought seems to run on. Also the diplomat would not have residence if he was visiting from…
Thanks for the heads up guys :) Yes I'm going to bake the high poly onto a low. Why would you soften the edges ? is it an aesthetic reason ? Or something more practical ? He he yes, I've came to that conclusion too as I was nearly finished with the cylinder. The biggest issue with it was that it had 8 rounds, which makes…
