Re: Portfolio Review and Advice
Ok, as promised, here is a little bundle of Lighting/composition hints which you could apply in your future scenes. PART1 As I've mentioned, PBR is a new trend and while it is cool thing, the aesthetics foundation didn't go anywhere, and nice lighting may be done well no matter the generation of engines or hardware... The… -
Re: Loading the MP5
sucks you lost the colt texture. hopefully you at least still have the flattened textures. my original texture critiques still stand: 1. you have no material definition. everything is the exact same shiny gray grunge texture with the beach.dds cubemap covering it up. the reason why i love texturing guns is because of how… -
Re: Sketchbook: Koski
Oh man! Forgot I had a sketchbook on here! Been a long summer and it's already almost autumn. I thought I'd add on to here a near complete texture workover of my astronaut character earlier! New things for this version; Reworked geometry - I added some more details, and defined a few shapes. I made parts of the model… -
Re: Another Female Character WIP
Hi there! Great job so far. I did a quick paint over. I'm no anatomy expert, so just take my advice lightly. Having done a fair share of high-heeled heroines (because -ALL- heroines should be in hot sexy high heels) your boots bugged me a bit. Are they supposed to be high heels? Sorry I wasn't certain. One thing to… -
Re: Star Trek Bridge
Hey Camrat, I saw that you posted on my thread asking about lighting. :) With your scene in particular, my eye has a bit of trouble being guided through the composition. You've got all these great little details with your bridge geo, but you need to help my eye out by guiding it a bit with lighting. It's reading a bit… -
Re: Need Help Please!
I agree with cryrid, the UV layout isn't helping at all. It's wasting space and wasting pixels. You could make a few adjustments, straighten some pieces out and utilize more pixels. There is way too much lighting, highlights and shadows in the diffuse material. The diffuse is just color information with hints of lighting… -
Re: Introduction and Multiple Questions
1. If you want true full-featured freeware, you will have to learn Blender 3D. http://www.blender.org It is quite easily the most full-featured free-to-use program that can be used to produce commercial work. SoftImage XSI Mod Tool is also a good option, but it is constrained in several ways that make it less flexible. I… -

Material definition in Zbrush and weird shadows on normal map
Hey PolyCount, I recently posted this to 3D p&p but it's kind of getting lost there with no replies so I figured this is probably a more fitting place for it. I'm in the process of trying to sculpt a barrel. I want it to look fairly stylized but i'm having trouble defining the edges and I think i'm getting caught in the… -
Re: How is 3D-scanning useful for 3D-artists?
Definitely useful, even for highly stylized assets. Putting together a bust in clay can be extremely satisfying and sometimes faster than in 3D. And with the powerful mesh reconstruction tools available in Zbrush, converting a scan into a workable 3D model for further refinement is just a matter of minutes now. So no,…
