Thanks, that's the problem I had - I found that you'd need some sort of tension to create the nice layering effect. As I stated in another thread, the tutorial that Jurassic posted shows the cloth wrapping at the point it touches the handle, everywhere else it's free-floating in the air. In blender the cloth simply drapes…
What is the confusion about the handle that you are having? What confuses me is why there are ropes of licorice wrapped all crooked around the handle. Your concept has it looking a bit more like cloth wraps.
Hey guys, So I am currently working on a high res Hammer. But as I transition to working on the high res model I am struggling to find them best way to do the cloth wrapping around the handle. I thought perhaps just taking the high res into zbrush and doing the cloth in there, or perhaps laying out the cloth with cylinders…
As what everybody else suggested, take off the cloth that wrap around your barrel. You said that you have the rear sight modeled but covered out buy the cloth right?..I guess you better show the metal rear sight instead of the cloth (since the rear sight is more complicated in shape and you manage to get that BUT covered…
So, I've come to polycount in light of my attempts to wrap cloth around the handle of my pistol I'm modeling. This is the effect I would like to create, preferably within Max. Obviously not to the extreme extent of this but a few turns, like 5 or 6 One tutorial on polycount showed an effect like this But the geometry I…
Hi guys, I have a few years of experience modeling in 3ds Max but I am now being presented with a new challenge and I'm not quite sure where to begin with it. I have done some character modeling and rigging in the past for single characters with no customization options but this time, I have to model and rig an avatar…
Hi! This is my first time posting work to Polycount, and my first attempt at hand painted textures! I figured a weapon with a few different materials to it would be a good starting point. Being a fan of Avatar and Legend Of Korra I figured something from either series would be fun. Reference I gathered up my reference's…
Okay, I'm currently working on a fantasy sword and everything was going well until I got to the handle. I want to wrap the handle with leather or cloth but can't seem to get anything to work. I'm using 3ds Max 2010. I have tried just to model it out and it looked bad, tried to use a helix and then convert it to spline,…
Ah you're right. Here is the concept I used. I could probably stuff a bunch of random bags or sacks on him to make him more interesting. The upper leggings are supposed to be a little more baggy, but I might have went overboard. I went into a bit more detail about how I made the chains on my webpage. Basically, I just used…
