Re: rant: tripples, nipples, and technical art
I totally see what you're saying there Shotgun, and I agree for the most part. However the current weekly polycount challenge is "draw a concept for a mad doctor" ... I want you to enter it. There's a couple of days left before deadline (Sunday), so I think you can get something done. Put an original twist on the mad… -
Re: Switching to Zbrush
To add to what's already been said, zbrush and mudbox use different division algorithms, so subdividing a mesh once in each will result in different point orders. However, as long as they both share the same UVs zbrush will import the details based on those instead of the point order. It's handy for when the recreate sub-d… -
Re: How do u paint your faces? (calling anyone)
Hi fordy. My current work flow is to spend ages on one face texture and use that as the basis for all my others. That way i can keep on refining the base until I am happy. I tend to start with a mid tone, establish the basic colours, then work in to it with the airbrush and smudge tool on fairly low opacity. I use dodge… -

Re: homeless frog

The materials could use some work, I understand you're going for a cartoon-ish look but that doesn't always mean paint-bucket-fill. Both the mud and the skin could use… -

Scorched Polycounters?
Recently started messing around with Scorched3D, and I was wondering if anyone else around here was a closet [scorched] junky. I tried modding it once, way back when, but the mood at the time was low - to say the least - when dealing with mods. At the moment, they have recently updated to a new version, and the servers are… -
Photoshop: dark grey + dark grey = light grey?
I'm doing some simple shading tests in Photoshop and am noticing a problem. If I lay down a dark color (close to, but not completley black) and mix it with white strokes, then alt+eyedrop to get the mid-shade, when I paint using it the color that comes out will always appear lighter then the mid-shade I used the eye… -
