Re: WIP Tiger Tank
I found an awesome colour picture from WW2 of a tiger tank over the weekend which really helped with the texturing! I upped the normal map to a 2048. The current diffuse is 1024 and although it does have a basic specular it's not final. I'm going to play around with different specular map sizes to see how it influences the… -
Re: Advice needed on my magma sloth
Hi, I believe you are having problems with your deformation because of your topology. I am still in the process of learning this all myself so I do not feel comfortable doing a paint over showing you how to improve your edge flow- The last thing I want to do is point out something and give you advice and it be wrong.

Re: The Environment Art of Halo 4
"The majority of the game was lit statically using a baked-in lightmap method.
