Hard Surface Enthusiast
Hello PC. I started a hard surface reference tumblr - essentially a collection of hard surface imagery in the form of collages and typologies - to serve as a starting point for further reference gathering and idea generation. http://hardsurface.tumblr.com/ Thought I'd share with the community, cheers! -
Zbrush for hard surfaces
I'm curious who here actually uses Zbrush for hard surfaces. Some of the new features recently added in 3.5 make it much easier to create hard surfaces from scratch, but I don't see too many people using this work flow. -
Need help with hard edges
Hello. I'm having hard times with hard surface modelling. At the picture, thick edges need to be preserved when smoothing, so I added extra loops. The problem is that I don't know how to resolve the upper intersection neatly. Currently there is a little pinching. Any ideas? -
Second /detailed normal map blending to provide seamless look over hard edges/uv splits ?
Is there a proper normal map blending for "detailed" second normal map that could preserve rounded look oh hard/split edges . It's "overlay" blending in Blender for example . It looks even worse in game. Detailed normal map reveals the hard edge seam instantly. I use same tangent space /UV island orientation in both normal… -
Hard surface concept collections
Hi, I just finished my first Hard surface vehicle. Im wondering if anyone knows about any hard surface concept collections online? -
Re: My sculpting diary
Well, I don’t see a problem with anyone who is posting their art. And there’s essentially no hard distinction between 3D Showcase and Digital Sketchbooks. It’s up to the poster to choose which they’d prefer. -
Low poly model resulted in smooth shading not hard.
Hi, so I try modeling the pieces for tabletop sim. The board game is called quadular and there is not a bord existed in the workshop. So why not try make it my own. Well I use 3ds max to model the pieces low poly. I even applied smoothing groups. But after exporting to .obj, all the polygons are smooth instead of hard.… -
Hard edge weirdness in Cycles
Trying to bake lightmaps in Blender, but Cycles gives me these weird hard edges in seemingly random locations: There are no hard edges there, and there are no uv seams in those places either. Any idea what could be causing this? -
Emulating soft edges on hard-edge models? (Possible?)
Hello :) I swear I've worked with an engine that has this capability in the past and I am hoping you folks can help me find out the name of this technique, so I can read up on it. Have you ever seen or worked with tech that could control edge softness right in the engine? So if I have a hard edge in Max on export (each… -
How do I bake only hard edges onto a wireframe texture?
Hello. I need to bake a wireframe texture that only contains the hard edges of the model. I can't seem to get the UV snapshot tool in maya to only bake hard edges. Even if I isolate the hard edges in the uv editor when I do UV snapshot, It shows every edge of the model. I could print screen the uv editor, but that's very…
