You can work locally inside of dropbox without problems. The files do exist on your HDD, in a folder of your choosing and anything you put in there gets copied, uploaded, backed up and synced to other machines that are logged into your dropbox. If the constant uploading gets too be an issue you can "pause upload" or just…
Totally unrelated subject-matter. BUT... Since I know that I will be heavily relying in 3D in this project. I wanted to create a small scene that will focus on how efficient I will be utilizing 3D while the focus is exploration and less on asset creation. Common challenge in utilizing 3D is it get's fairly technical if you…
Day 6 Hello! Finally all preparations for main gun are done and it is ready for Highpoly thou I still have to make additional scope tomorrow. Around 4 hours today which gets me to 30 hours total spent for this project, pretty fast, huh? Today I finished magazine and rear sight, it took me more than I expected but it's fine…
Hello guys! I am doing 3D since the end of 2018 self taught and I've learned a lot so far. Most of the times I figured out problems all by myself or with the help of certain tutorials (bought or youtube). I feel comfortably with modeling a lot of objects by myself alone. However, I am struggling with jets. Currently I'm…
Hello! Some time ago I finished a project and thought I’d make a breakdown of the whole process from start to finish. This is not a detailed tutorial for every step but rather an overview over the process that I hope will help people (especially beginner 3D artists) get a better understanding of how the pipeline works.…
I've been having issues getting UE4 To get scaling right. Currently these are my settings in Max and the issue itself. I am leaning toward it being my unit set up being the issue? If so can anyone recommend settings in which would allow me to use feet without the objects getting imported huge in the engine? Also what would…
That was a weird title!? now here's the Question. I have a really detailed model made in another app using the oldskool hardsurfacing method (adding edge loops closer to an edge to make it harder). I have laid out the uv's and now I want to further detail the piece in Zbrush. Like adding scratches but noooo colour, thats…
https://youtu.be/apoVKOKzRwA Whats up polycount crew? I thought I would drop this here for anyone struggling as a student or going the self taught route. As a self taught artist, the struggle was always uphill, you are entirely accountable to yourself and have to rely on developing self discipline and consistency if you…
@Kanni3d That is about what I was hoping to hear, thanks :) I started learning realtime art back around the beginning of the 7th gen, so a lot of the benchmarks and metrics I use to measure optimisation is still sort of stuck in that era. As such, I get nervous once I start breaking 50k and 3-4 texturesets (couple this…
I totally promise I'm still working on this guy Had some freelance work to do, and some holiday so haven't been able to put as much time into this as I would like. Fortunately, the end is somewhat in sight... things still needing addressed: - New face texture, I'm going to largely overhaul the face texture, because I don't…
