whatever works for you. :) Modelling parts and merging them later can work well and is a valid strategy. Thanks to pior for showing those displacement examples. It helps in iterating that the artificial separation of modelling and texturing is imo a mistake. Especially with the emergence of normalmaps in the 2000s. you can…
Great work in progress, keep at it! Currently it feels like all your props and assets are made of 1 piece and are a similar colour. I know you're going for a frozen aesthetic. I really recommend you look at some reference on how frozen assets look. Usually they still read clearly, maybe have some snow/ice on it. Here a…

I need to make a leaf texture, hopefully one that can be modified to make multiple leaf types, and am looking for advice or a good reference for how to make the vein structure within a leaf. I see a lot of examples of textures and generators, but not good info on how its done. Anyone have a good example or tutorial on how…
As Till mentioned: there's other factors that are causing problems with the last two cubes in the example image. These could be mismatched tangent spaces, flipped triangulation, strong horizon occlusion or some combination of issues. The first two cubes in the example image are sufficient to illustrate the point. The last…
We have some good examples on our wiki. Drill down here into the sub-pages like LimbTopology and ShoulderTopology http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Topology For example:
I do not understand what I am looking at here. Did you model that color render of that Panzer model? Or are you simply using it for reference. It is so completely different to your low poly. And that model itself is loaded to inaccuracies and you SHOULD NOT be using that for reference. Until you answer this I am only going…
