Re: Shield Critique
Hey Inquisitive_Scholar nice start, the proportions of the shield seem spot on although you may want to bend it slightly so that it has a curve to it (the amount depends on how stylized you want it to look). Modelling wise, the first thing that jumps out at me is the lower poly count around the edge of the shield, this is… -
Re: (FINISHED) The Suburbs - Environment
Yah, its really coming along. I think the lighting could still be improved. The sky texture and the lighting you have now seem a little miss-matched. You've got a directional light but also a fully overcast sky. I think the lighting and sky combo in the original concept looked fantastic, with the dark thick clouds on one… -
Re: [WIP] [UE4] Snow Siege
Hey polycount :) it's been a while since my last update, travelling around the country and interviewing has left me with little time for the seige! Over the past week I've slowly been chipping away at the walls, making some destroyed variations, blocking out some more seige props, establishing some communal areas for the… -
Re: Occupy Wall St
You're confusing profit with revenue. Revenue is what you get for the goods and labor you sell, which pays wages and costs. Profit is the money made beyond the value of your goods and labor. If my labor is worth $20 per widget and my material costs are $100 per widget, then the value of the good is $120. That's $100 for… -
Re: File types and Normal Maps
To add to LeechDemon here: 1- Every software reads and writes PNG's differently, the closest we have to standard is Photoshop, and while that works fine in everyday usage, it's hassle for 3D softwares to read them out clearly. PNG's are the Normals Maps of the formate world if you will, instead of flipping green channels,… -
Re: First Environment Asset on Indie Game. Looking for Input.
The lower columns are rather stout compared to the reference image. When working with bricks, it's important to line them up in the correct position. The layer of bricks at the bottom of the lower windows is off; it should be exactly at the bottom of the windows, instead of a bit low. The bricks are also off at the ledge… -
Re: Future of texturing and 3d modeling in gaming industry
$20K will buy you a 30-40 camera rig. Don't forget it's not just cameras, but stands, cables, USB hubs, computers, flashes, and some custom software development and such to drive the rig. And even with that you're on a relatively standard set of cameras and objectives. Also, as others have already pointed out, there are… -
Re: Cool painting - Bad concept - What 3d artists are looking for in concept art
This is actually what is done a lot in studios that can afford it and actually the position that i have right now. Most of the senior guys are producing stuff to sell to producers. If it isn't flashy and dramatic it won't get funding to work on so the pieces they want to go forward are generally the ones that make the most… -
Re: [WIP] UDK Modular Environment
So, according to the crits that were given, I've boosted the wall heights (from 128 to 160) and lowered the railings (from 64 to 52-ish). For the railings unforunately, I've decided to not slant them to make the construction easier for corners. (lazy!) I then proceeded to unwrap all my pieces and bake the high res meshes… -
Re: Female Anatomy
I dont know what kind of female anatomy you are going for so Im just going to assume its standard pretty girl stuff. Id say your ribcage is too small in height and depth and too pronounced, its like shes holding her breath, rather try use more neutral pose/breathing reference like this bikini model I found on google…
