Re: Monthly Noob Challenge 3
Thanks. Yeah there is a normal map for both brick layers. The colour between the cracks I suspect have to do with bump offset which I also applied to both layers. The cracks, which is the black part of the height map of the white brick is what 'leaks' the other brick layer I think. :poly142: Not sure if that is even a… -
Re: Why is Photoshop stupid sometimes?
I did a short test on this, and you seem to be correct; if I save a flattened image as a PNG, I can Save As multiple times, and the Current Document is my most recently saved image. If the layer has opacity or is on a layer that is not the background layer, the Current Document is whatever it was before the save. Does… -
Re: Painting with brush focus instead of brush hardness?
I know the way how to non-destructively paint the way you want in PS. I've discovered this way occasionly. The only limitation is that you can't paint an arbitrary layer - only the layer masks. It's ok in many cases actually. So the main point is that when you've created a layer with mask, use mask refinement feature to… -
Re: Best way to repair color map in painter?
while having Fill Layer 1 active, add the Effect "Paint" on it, over paint the area. :) how to; click on the Fill Layer 1, either click on the effects button on the top or right click on the fill layer and select Paint from the menu, for the colour; either use the Material picker to get the wished colour, or manually… -
Re: Assigning smooth groups to each UV island in Modo?
Try inverting the green channel of the modo normal map for a start. You can tick Invert Green on the texture layer. To view the textures, just add them in as texture layers and change their effect (right click on the bit to the right where it says Diffuse Color and select the effect you want - modo doesn't have specific… -
Re: Mesh Blend - Tool for Maya inspired by Polystein Kit
SPaint is probably my favorite plugin of all times in Maya :D yeah i'll be doing a random rotation input, too. The array thing i dunno, we'll probably see that for later, like wayyy later x) @Dumbanana woops sorry for not answering earlier ! A modifier stack or something that allows non-destructive workflows in Maya is… -
Re: Mac 11 first weapon
i don't know if its just he darkness of the render and the contrasting bright background color you chose, but many of the edges of your weapon are lost. Start a new layer in Photoshop called "edges." Take a hard brush white and go over all the edges of your model, duplicate the layer, then put a small gaussian blur on the… -
Re: If Not Game Art, Then What?
I was going to make an entire thread about this with all the layoffs going around, but Ill just post it here instead. Game artists need to look into simulation work. Thats what my full time gig has been for about 6 ½ years now after graduating. First off, theres Serious Games, and then theres simulation. There is a big… -
Re: Struggling with Head Anatomy – Need Feedback to Break the Cycle
Sure thing. For recent exercises, I've used various references as guides. Since I wasn't sculpting a specific head, I kept my approach general thus the proportion is kind of all over the place. Next time, I'll include the references I used. I'm not very familiar with sculpting ears, so I've only placed them roughly so… -
Re: 256 Town
Love how your strict rules have lead to such a cool clean style. Feels like you need to split this up and make a second destroyed texture to swap out elements to. So you could rampage around it as a giant robot with a laser penis
