Re: WIP - Montréal Metro Station(Laurier)
Materials - WIP Perhaps my favorite part of all this: the materials. Substance designer and Painter are true gems! I mean, I could draw the substances pretty well but seeing a material come to life in 3D, building it up from scratch, creatively using black/white height values...so happy to have incorporated this into my… -
Re: RGCA - Adopting ICLone 6 as an Animation Platform
Reply by jgesq · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Reallusion Game Character Animation ContestToday's exercise is to add my Son of Santo styled character to a IC6 world. I'm experimenting with foliage, foreground lens elements (as I tend to stage my work in the middle), overhead Softbox arrays and learning to assign a walk to a Path. 800 frame animation switched between two cameras. Assigned a Dummy or Nul object… -
Re: Need advice on rebooting to learn 3D
I think first you have to define a specific career goal. If it's game environment art, you may find all the information you need plus a lot of things you didn't expect from the wiki page on this site and also the archived threads. I'm sure some people here can help a lot as well, but you kind of need a more specific… -
Re: Wanting to be Great, struggling when you realise you're not
I experience this all the time. Recently I've been feeling like I'd reached a plateau and I wasn't actually getting better at what I do. Sure, I was practicing what I know and I was becoming faster at what I do, but I wasn't actually improving my art. This made me realize that there are other artists out there who do the… -

Re: Help a newborn artist in the mysteries of uv mapping
Give yourself an easier time and make a much simpler character first. Or just a shirt. Like a basic rectangular t-shirt made from a couple cubes stitched together. If you are feeling froggy you could just use a single part of your character here. Just take the shirt or pants only and run through the rest of the process… -
Re: How do Americans reconcile the concept of bootstraps with being a nation of fatasses?
In theory, this is true. In practice however. If you go to the supermarket, they have researched ways to make the processed food the most accessible. Front of store display of sales, the food right at mid waist height. Shelf space, is bought by companies. Also, as said, good fruit stands, or healthy stores are not easily… -

Will keep in mind the area of the stock and the pistol grip area so its not so noticeable, keep forgetting to go back to the… -
Re: Props and Textures
Welcome Oogh. You've definitly got the process down so I am going to comment on the textures individually. On this texture you've relied heavily on a crack overlay to portray proper cracks. What you've posted looks decent, but unbelievable. In the green area that I've highlighted I simply flipped the selected surface… -
Re: Video sketchs updated every few days
I didn't watch every video all the way though, but I watched a fair amount, and have some crits for you. They may seem kinda harsh, but that's crits for ya. First, DO NOT include your music with your tutorials. It doesn't matter what you listen to, good or bad. 99% of the people who watch your tutorials are going to have…
