Re: How Do You Maintain Art Direction?
One thing I like to do is have a separate Photoshop file that contains common colors & elements for a given project - or part of a project. When I'm working on WWII aircraft, for example, I have a file that contains color swatches for each country, and another with common insignia and even notes on proper fonts. It saves… -

Re: [WIP] Aircraft altimeter
Thanks for all the info guys. I think I would prefer to have a thicker glass, I am planning to use Marmoset to render it. I'll see how it goes, a bit of trial and error now. I do also have that glass bit on a different texture set, so I think it should work, I'll just skip the ao map on it.. -
Re: Getting a new PC

When the model is done (hopefully soon) I intend to make some renders of it with a heavy… -
Re: Specular in shadows issues
My best guess is that your specular response is getting doubled because your getting info from the directional lightmap AND the actual lights at the same time. Check your lights and see what you have set under lightmapping in the properties tab. By default its set to auto...make sure they are all set to baked only. -
Re: Blender- Cannot get rigify rig to bind to mesh
I think you're messing things up. The vertex group field in the modifier settings is to only be used with a vertex group for limiting the influence of that entire modifier over the mesh, not for skinning. Almost all deform-type modifiers have this kind of option. When you're skinning a character to an armature you leave… -
Re: Videos and books on how buildings are constructed?
I'll be interested to see where this thread goes. The uncanny valley gets all it's pop in the realm of character art, but I think it happens in environments as well when things are 'just off' from how they would be built. Maybe it doesn't create the same sense of unease when it happens in environment art, but it can still… -
