Re: Please review my portfolio
your work looks really good but i agree with the above comment. My one critique would be on the car (since i own it) the area where the bumper meets the fender (near the headlight) is way off and so is the headlight itself. Seems like you were trying to replicate that spec d projector headlight. for me those two sections… -
Re: Drawing & practice
I would think that any form of drawing is going to be good. Tracing is next to useless because a lot of the skill of good drawing comes from observation, if you're tracing then you're completely denying that. In order to perfect form and proportion you must observe it a lot and try to replicate it on paper, without… -
Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge September 2013 (11)
same here the small strip is just half sized normal tiles. As for the cracks i used a mask using the light map uvs as vertex painting doesn't really give enough control as the cracks start to bleed into tiles you don't want them to. Thats if you are trying to replicate the concept tho otherwise you could use vertex… -
Re: Choose your own adventure - the next environment challenge
Vig brings up a good point, I was having a hard time visualizing a hub(even though I've done one before 0_o), in comparison to the others which were easy to grasp. The more I think about it #1 sounds the most creative. I think what I liked so much about #3 was the idea of experimenting with a texturing style based off of a… -
Re: Can someone help me get a clear vision/path that I need to take in order to learn 3D game art
Totally agree with SHRIKE on the fact that modelling from real life is the way to go at this stage. It shows yourself an everyone else what mistakes you are making as we are all judging from the same starting point. You can also replicate the feel or mood of a real object much more closely and have people critic. Classical… -
Re: WIP Character Model
[ QUOTE ] And HONESTLY, posting the tut, and calling "busted" when Rico did something similar is not very nice, it's entrapment. [/ QUOTE ] He still has the copied and pasted parts of the xcloud texture in his final product, and since he is using this for a school project (and, logic would suggest, whatever kind of… -
Re: Metal surfacing technical name
The point of convergence that may increase the risk of fatigue would be a Stress Riser or Stress Concentration. Junctions are usually described by letters that have similar shapes: T, K, X, Y, etc. Intersection names can vary by location or trade. What the offset area is called will probably depend on whether this is… -
Re: A question about retopology, high poly characters and low poly ones...
Sorry this took so long. Here's a quick example image. I am making use of baking by name in Marmoset. Each of the clothing elements has a _high and _low component. The skin part only has a _high component. It will only be included in the AO bake (with Marmoset's "ignore groups" option ticked on), and will be ignored in all… -
Re: Unity - Flat Shade Terrain (Seamless)
https://github.com/3deric/retro_terrain Maybe this can help. I tried to replicate the transport tycoon terrain in unity a while ago. It has NO terrain editor, everything is based on procedural noises. But it should be possible to feed it with a heightmap. For this you would need to transform the heightmap values into a… -
Re: nDo2 Help.
I'm not really worried about the channels at the moment, sorry my OP is a bit confusing reading back over it. I'm more interested in the method of replicating the max bake without having to flatten the layer and loose my ability to tweak the nD02 parameters, in photoshop. For that result, i made a rectangle selection…
