Re: Fight scenes with interesting lighting?
Jeff Cronenweth is one of the cinematographers I admire most; take a look at the basement scenes of Fight Club. If you want to go into technical details, have an eye for practical light sources - they are above the crew and they lit the scene almost completely, always illuminating the two characters that carry the… -
Re: Character Model - Sexy News reader
Loads of improvement over the old model. And my $0.02... I'm aware she's suppose to be sexy, but the waist is sickeningly tiny. It's like she's been wearing one of those waist cinchers all her life and her internal organs have been pushed up into her chest. And on that note, her chest is massive. I think it could be shrunk… -
Re: Allewway Project
Night scenes in 3D can be tricky, because it typically doesn't work to have a game or film behave the way it would in real life, instead of looking at realistic lighting (still good to use for reference; but make a decision for your jumping off point); look at other games with night scenes, and Hollywood sets from… -
Re: How much detail is too much?
i think our minds have been around game assets long enough that the brain just looks for consistency. after 5 minutes on super smash n64, my brain accepts the characters for what they're portraying, not the ridiculously low polycount. to maintain the illusion, just keep your details consistent. if you mix it up, it's just… -
Re: Brave
just saw it, didn't wait until after the credits, which I regret now :( feeling incredibly inspired though, I really really really liked how they chose to portray scottisch mythology and folklore. the music particularly accentuated the feel of the movie, which is something I always appreciate. art-wise this was IMO one of… -
Re: A Giant Crab with a Crab-Dude Riding it (Unfinished Petrol/Blood Entry)
Im not sure what detail you are adding if its surfacing then short answer from me would be to put more of your detail in your roughness map, significantly less in the albedo and avoid using lighting information in the albedo unless you are sure it will work eg some subtle ao. This isnt a rule more just a bit of advice that… -
Re: Viking props [Marmoset Toolbag 3]
@Eric Chadwick yes, the tops of the staves have a little stretched uvs because it is a combined shell. I wanted to add little more geometry at the top. Here's wireframe + uvs. I agree it could be done better :) Regarding the rope, detailed pattern's normals are made from photo in Bitmap2material, so I guess i could do… -
Re: Need advice how to start to draw
I always show people this tutorial if they haven't seen it already: http://androidarts.com/art_tut.htm More related to digital painting than "drawing", but it's simple and straightforward, a handy guide for some basic concepts that apply in all sorts of scenarios. Beyond that my number one recommendation is to study and… -
Re: Contemporary "art"
Don't worry, I'm working on controlling my anger, I swear :P lol Yeah, drawing... it's amazing how often art courses SAY that you need to be really good at drawing to get in... and then, well, plenty of greasy artists slip through the cracks :P I believe that being an artist isn't so much a skill as an outlook on life.… -
Re: Quantum of Solace
So you're saying that in 90% of the James Bond films to date, Bond has been portrayed incorrectly? I would argue that since his character has been established on screen over the course of 46 years, changing it so drastically now seems very odd indeed. I certainly have trouble seeing how they're going to make the transition…
