Re: Sci-fi Rifle [WIP Thread]
Here's tonight's progress on the high poly. About 8 hours in. Some of the curvy surfaces are hard to get smooth. Had to re-make the trigger guard with better topology to get rid of denty and blobby artifacts. I'll probably have to work the body of the rifle a bit more as well to get nice topological flow. Oh well. -
Re: [WIP] German - Historical - Dunkelgrau & Bronze/Brown
Some results of my 2D pattern practice. Just trying to get a good idea of proportion between different colors and the flow of the camouflage on a 2D surface. Neubaufahrzeug (Nb.Fz. TypeA) 3 Toned Camouflage: Panzer IV Ausf.F2/G brownish sand & "dunkelgrau": Panzer 38(t) Ausf C Brown/Bronze & "dunkelgrau": -

Re: Experience with Graphic Tablets (Huion)
Yeah drivers are a pain in the ass. I love the size though. And it works just as well as a wacom. There's definitely a difference in build quality though. The pen feels very flimsy and I don't really like the feel of the surface. But considering the entire thing cost less than my wacom pen I can't really complain. -
Re: How does UV pinning work
I see what your saying. So the boarder edges just have to make up the general silhouette right? After that I unpin all the boarder edges and the UVs will even themselves out right? I tried that myself and i THINK it's working... I did it on a really simple surface so I'm not sure. -
Re: Hard Edges around Holes
Actually one loop can be enough if its not a chamfer, but a suportloops that is in plane with the surface around it. So if you would put a supportloop like in subd modeling, where you don't actually round the geo. This would completely fix the shading issue. You can do this very simply, just cut a supportloops manually… -
Re: Dave's Sketchbook
Hey! Here are a few more images of the WIP. I know it isnt a very exciting piece but I would love some feedback as I ease my way back to hard surface stuff. I baked the maps inside of maya using the decimated geo from Zbrush. Cheers! Normal Mapped lowpoly... Wires.... -
Re: Portrait critique
Hi, Nice shapes, they're pretty much on point. the only thing I could say is that the right eye could be more squashed and the pupil a little more hidden. As for color. Skin shadows are a little more red (especially the neck shadow). shadows are never black, so they usually carry the color of the surface they're projected… -
Re: black lines in the 3ds max viewport
Create a light and this should go away. The default 2-lighting setup will add this shading line, because the two lights are coming from directly opposite angles, which causes an unlit area for any parts of the surface that point perpendicular to those lights. If that doesn't do it, also try a Reset Xform, as this could be… -
Re: Zbrush Noise Apply To Mesh Error
Thanks for the reply cyrid, I figured it out, as noted on Zbrush website "Note: For Surface Noise to show you must have Quick 3D Edit turned ON in the Transform palette. Also note that if your model is very large the noise may not show or will display in patches." I scaled down the model and it worked perfectly. Cheers,
