Re: Robot Pilot Dude! - Portfolio piece.
Progress: Retopod and baked. I also did me some further learning on UV-mapping before baking (using the excellent Polywiki). What I remember from the top of my head: When projecting your high poly, distortions in the UV-map are not a major concern. Especially for organic stuff. Ive seen it, but never really thought about… -

For UE4 you need to pay separatelly for possibility to output to consoles. You need to share 5% of you income from released material till the end of the world. With Unity you pay 1500$ and that's it. You can pay additionally for iOS/Andrid support (1500$ each) but it's still less than paying couple thousands/millions each… -
Re: Kriss Vector II Gen
First of all, I'm learning so much with this piece. Just wanted to put it out there. So, been very busy lately but I have managed to clean the lowpoly a bit. It's roughly 30k tris for the main weapon, 40k with full accessories. As it's evident, I have been very generous with curves and cylinders to get as much quality as… -
Re: [Zbrush Plugin] zCycler : Brush cycle (Free)
I'd say either there aren't enough people that might be your target zone in Polycount or they aren't bothered to continue reading because of the presentation. One thing to keep in mind is that these days your biggest target audience is most probably on Facebook groups (ten thousand Hours, Level Up, etc...) and not on… -
Re: MLRS M270 Low Poly
The amount of detail you need for the treads to look good really depends on your viewing distance & angle, but spending 2/3 of your polygon budget on the tracks is a little crazy. If you really do need that level of detail, then you need to include that level of detail throughout, probably pushing the total towards the… -
Re: Zelda: Wind waker Tech and Texture Analysis *picture heavy*
okay i found a tool to extract the files from windwaker and look closer into it. Link has 2874 tris, the mesh showed earlier from google3dsomething looks like the one i extracted. He uses 42 bones. with a total of 323 animations for the body (not all can be opened with an error that they use 5 instead of 42 bones, so its… -
Re: Cintiq 24HD
Having a 21UX at home, I can say the loss of being able to rotate the tablet when its positioned horizontally is pretty huge. Although I must confess I rarely work like that. I have it stand at the most vertical position so I can use my aluminum apple keyboard in front of it. I kinda want a monitor arm for it now, since… -
Re: [Portfolio] Yury Uvarov - 3D Modeler / Environment Artist
Looking good man. Simple. Straight to your best work. Best work being the Starship Control Room. Nothing that hasn't been done before, but you should definitely send your portfolio to Bioware, Bungie, 343 etc. if Sci-Fi is where you feel comfortable. I would toss your Medieval Art Set piece. It's not needed. Also, consider… -
Re: Not Your Average Software Debate
I would maybe not go with the large complex (expensive!) major applications. But it depends a little on what might suit your son. Is he already keen on art? Does he draw a lot? Then encouraging his artistic side with something free like Sculptris http://pixologic.com/sculptris/ and a (very cheap Bamboo) graphics tablet… -
Re: Tablets: lots of questions
Just to make this a little clearer, I am not looking to replace my aiptec with a wacom. I am looking to repace my no-screen tablet for one with screen, if the price tag is allright that is. I can't say wether my aiptek I got here is worse than a wacom, but the preasure sensety feels a bit strange and the whole hotkey…
