[Help&Tips] Human Anatomy
Hey guys so I am thinking about learning to model Human Anatomy because I think that way I will be able to improve my Props/Environment skills too. Today I have been working in a head just to give it a try but I was using an image of another 3D Head model with wireframe on so I don't think I deserve any credits for what I… -
Tips for Modelling a Forest Environment
Hey, not sure if this is the right place for this thread, but anyways... I have a lot of trouble with environments. I'm fine with modelling individual characters or props, but something about environments just overwhelms me.

Tips for tiling wood textures
So as I'm sure we all know, some of the more typical techniques for creating a tiling texture don't apply themselves as well to working with wood textures because of issues matching the flow of the natural grain, or avoiding obvious repetition.

Basically I have a sphere mesh, and one part of it is masked to show the reflection, I inverted this reflection 180 to fake the refection, but cannot for the life of me… -
Re: Mechanical SUB-D tips and tricks
I agree on the Zbrush micro-detail point, except that for me using a 3D painter is often easier to paint surface details that painting just in 2D. But I'd love to see how you would paint the sword normal map and still make that tip come out well. I can see how you could easily make a decent gradient for the shaft, but… -
