Looking good so far, but for the folds i would look into some stylized examples and go into that direction. right now they are too blooby and wonky. give them some clear straight lines and directon. for example: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/PmGdJL
Ok, so after poking around and doing some reading and thinking on the problem, I'm starting to think my initial guess was right - that this is an issue of gamma correction. This means two things: #1 - You artist types arent just smoking crack or anything :P In fact actually whoever originally picked up on the whole "use a…
Hi there. As I've been working on a pistol project I've gotten some good feed back, And some question on edge on control in zbrush. After seeing such interest in it, I wanted to see what i could come up with. The biggest thing i came up with was creating a retopologization in all quads, Then creating fast edge loops with…
Hi! Nice model overall :+1: Looking closer, I think mainly the shading/ surface-describtion could be improved, as currently everything looks a bit evenly matte. For example some higher glossiness and subsurface scattering on skin and teeth. Skin could have some more pronounced color zones. Hair would benefit from some…
So what did you do to achieve the far right example? I see that the edges are jagged, but from the side you don't have wavy lines, which is what I'm after. All my examples / tests have the result of your middle cylinder.
Hey! Do you guys know what makes old graphics, old? Take a look at broodwar for example They are sprites made from 3d objects, but they have a unique look, maybe its the color limitation, maybe old render engines, what is it? Some more examples:
Not that hard, if I understand you correctly. Here's a super-simple example, max 8 format. Uses a UDynaFlect deflector, which lets you choose arbitrary geometry. Replace the particle system and you're good to go. http://www.ericchadwick.com/examples/files/particles_filling_a_box.zip
I don't think that's an especially good example, i was just messing before going to bed ^^ You shouldn't look too much for complex examples and super large and impressive shading networks, some very basic effects can easily simulate a large range of materials :)
i saw some good hair examples from some of the entries in comicon challenge 2010, and the varga tut is a widely referenced method, but I think this topic needs exploring further by artist & engineers, or perhaps I just need more practice:) and another texture example I made with finer hairs
Make the meshes contiguous, as much as possible, this will reduce headaches later when binding the vertices to the bones (skinning). For example, take a look at how the shirt transitions to the pants, or the pants to the shoes. Street Cop by Mashru Mishu. More examples here http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/BodyTopology
