Some awesome work here man! Though I would say that you have some weak material definition on your objects, such as your axe. The metal looks like it would be made of clay. I am pretty sure its mainly the diffuse, but the spec is also super flat. You have these white, soft overlay lines running along the creases/fold/bends…
They all look good and it looks like you have a solid understanding of how to use them. Everything has a bit of a pre-set look to it. The blobby, volumetric smoke is something that I see a lot but lacks character. Nothing wrong with using it as a base. The meteor bird could have a bit more snap to the animation. If the…
Thanks liking and giving a feedback mate :) I appreciate it that you deliver best to your understanding. Some of your suggestions are pretty good. Yeah the center explosion is looking more kind of implosion compared to the original reference, Basically I haven't utilized hand-drawn cartoony texture or used a…
Are you going towards a modular approach? I can't completely tell from your unwraps, but I've been seeing sci fi environments being taken on more modularly than before. http://thiagoklafke.com/modularenvironments.html There's a guy on here who made a kick ass sci fi and he only used a couple of texture pages. Anyways,…
There's some funky lighting, there's a strong highlight on the shoulder but then there's highlights on the opposite side of the helmet. Certain elements look a bit flat and could use some more depth - like the ring pattern on the helmet, and the shoulder armour and the shield (?). The face also looks a bit strange. The…
It looks like the functionality is fine, but visually its not so well. Choose another font, you are not in Lord of the rings. Get something sans serif if you do not know which serifs convey which mood. Remake your logo, also take care of the spacing. Experiment with colors and that bar you have. All this sepia tone -…
since this is a small model, disable mipmaps. It'll make the textures sharper in the background. not enough contrast in the specular. I mean, the scratched surfaces dont reflect enough light. since the metal is blue (which I really like), then change the hue of the tires to red/orange (color of dirt). That way, they are…
Add stuff to make the silhouette more interesting. Like hinges, extrusions, a heavy base. Maybe a fancy high-tech locking system? Don't add stuff willy-nilly though. The box itself should tell a story of some kind. Things you might want to think about when designing this box: -What is the box made of? -Who made the box?…
I have no personal experience working in China, but one of my classmates did an internship there as environment artist, I sat down with him to look at jobs at the time and most actually list fluent English as part of the qualifications. Especially in major cities and special zones like Hong Kong it's quite common to find…
ah, i kind of saw that but it doesn't quite behave how I'm used to. I would expect if you have an edge ring selected, convert to faces would select all those faces the edges belong to (loop of faces basically). blender just deselects completely sandro, I'll give that a try; but with the script in the other thread (…
