Yeah there's the sculpting tool and also another one that is part of the poly modelling toolset. In Maya it's called the Edit Mesh : Average Vertices tool. Yeah that's what I was thinking: manipulate the shading after you are happy with the geometry as such but perhaps still need to get rid of little visual glitches. I can…
It's all context-dependent, something you learn best by doing. My advice is to try forcing yourself to stick to a lower resolution, and fix the problems you see. You will learn how to minimize repetitive features in a texture that is tiled. You will also learn how to leverage vertex blending and other techniques like…
Our mobile game studio is looking for a highly talented horse sculptor, along with a low poly horse modeller and a PBR horse texture artist. The quality of your work must be professional and not that of a hobbyist. Below is an example from another game to demonstrate the level of quality we require. A detailed brief will…
Hi, I'd like to share this freelance opportunity with you guys. We are looking for a character artist who would be interested in making models, textures, and animations for a mobile AR Game. We can discuss specific details later on, for now I'd like to take a look at samples of your work and possibly get a quote per asset.…
Amazing project (watched your YT vid as well) so cheers for sharing and also congrats, no doubt looks as though was a ton of work involved :+1: I particularly like the cloth sim'd objects especially those creased folds or wrinkled cloth they're quite realistic, for example on what appears to be a TOPP or MOPP suit? If so,…
Looking good! Let me see if i can get some input here: On the UVs, anything that is nearly vertical or horizontal should be perfectly aligned, here are some examples. Even if the uvs become slightly distorted, its worth it so u dont get any aliasing on the model overall. I would still go back to HP and make some changes,…
I'm very fearful. I try to make posts that don't offend people or stir up backlash in some way. This is why I kept the OP short and discrete. You're right, that there's more to color and there are other cartoons as well. But what if someone waltzed in here and blasted me because "I didn't pick enough cartoons from a…
I can't help you with tutorials but what i did is to open the examples and macros then analyzed and reverse engineered what they do. Going through the documentation step by step is also helpful. If you're familiar with node based material editing in UDK or UE4 for example you will find thers a lot of similarities with what…
Zbrush has a unusual 3d context. It's not displaying polygons like any other program. So it complains because of that. The problem with any polygon that isn't a tri is that you have to convert to a triangle to display it. This doesn't matter if the polygon is planar but if you have a non-planar polygon it can have several…
This is mostly about lighting. Materials need to be tweaked to support the lighting and rendering, but mostly you need to learn how to light a scene. We have some good resources here about lighting http://wiki.polycount.net/CategoryLighting The help file in Max is a good place to start, for scenes like your examples above.…
