Re: Getting good height from Nvidia-filter normalizing grayscale height
Not criticizing or anything, trying to wrap my mind around it and form my own opinion. I was sold on CB for a while there when viewing Ryan's animated GIF. Then when later viewing the wiki I was convinced that the CB example and Rod Green example were similar, so had to layer on top of each other in Photoshop to compare.… -
Re: Sketchbook: Paulewog
The space girl is sweet! I like her attitude in her pose. One critique I have on that turn around is on the front view, her feet look the same as the back view. You can probably show better form of her feet/shoes/boots. Oh, and the third one, it looks like HER right leg is swinging behind her left one. Other than that, it… -
Re: WIP Cheesy, post apocalyptic, scifi Mutant
Holy crap, that looks awesome! :) Reminds me of some of the Quake 3 concepts. What program did you use, Painter or Photoshop and what resolution do you work with? What I really like about it is that you get the idea in first glance but when you look closer, its some real simple lines and shapes. Are you going to make… -
Re: Character: Jill (nudity)
The bottom half of her body is too 'bulky' for the top half. Check your proportions, the feet are at different heights in all your views. Draw some horizontal lines from one image, and alter the others to fit. In the back view her head has been smashed with a shovel, overlay it on the fromt image, and re-draw the top of… -
Re: Sketchbook: bounchfx
Nice Studies Bounch, One thing I noticed (not on your recent post, but the two before) is that the eyes have perspective issues. Take the 'color as a value' character. even though the character is 3/4 view, the eyes look like they would work better for a front view. (hoo I hope I'm making sense) Anyways, keep it up! I… -
Re: Modular vs. Unique Approach for Walls in a Small Interior Scene (Bathroom) in Unreal Engine
Lumen does a lot in screen space that can mask issues until they are on the edge of the screen where screen space fails, it also looks inconsistent even if it's doing a decent job of hiding issues. Id check the lumen debug views under lit and make sure it isn't missing coverage. It matters more if you're using software… -
Re: A question regarding the ideal work flow for texturing buildings in Dayz and Arma3.
There's a lot to unpack here... Starting with the game engine. Its linage goes all the way back to the first game in the series. The engine's evolution has been influenced by a variety of factors but the niche focus of the games has a lot to do with why the internal systems are the way they are. Over the course of it's… -
Re: The wonders of technical art (Unreal Engine)
My note on this. Since I'm rendering into a render target that is created by blueprints or by hand, and not a native buffer, the view property node doesn't work, and you need to use texture property instead, and hook up the render target to it. I guess the view property node would not work anyways, because of the same… -
Re: Arisaka Type-38 Rifle - C&C Much Appreciated
Thank you both very much for your comments! I edited the metal to help break up the materials a bit more. Is this looking better or does it still need more work? As for the presentation, I followed the 4 links that were provided plus this one that has been a source of inspiration: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Kagw6G… -
Re: How much POV you setup when sculpting in Zbrush?
Just get it to look similar to however you are going to render it. I usually use 28 degree field of view. But if I decide I may render with a larger FOV, I may go up to 45. It won't cause issues with your sculpting. The difference is negligible. Just make sure you aren't sculpting with perspective disabled. You can use…
