Re: WIP: Warhammer-ish mech
When you are done with your class requirement, I suggest you go to poops site if you haven't already and go through all his tutorials. To improve your modeling skills I would suggest you model some real things like cars, trucks, tanks, rooms. It might seem boring at first or mundane but you will learn a lot from doing it.… -
UV Straightening and its perks on LOD generation
This is a topic that has been reoccuring lately and i thought putting the info in its own thread is a good idea. I will be showcasing a method i have been using for way over a decade now, in 3dsmax. Which is to my knowledge the only tool that allows me to do this. Please correct me if i am wrong, i'd love to have this… -
Do you try to avoid the Chinese Room?
There is a thought experiment done by a philosopher named John Searle to demonstrate the difference between a conscious being and a computer. He places a man in a room and has him follow a long list of instructions for converting the English language into Chinese. He can convert Chinese, but he doesn't truly understand… -

Re: Pack and later split several grey images in and from a single 32 bit channel?
I had a quick look and it doesn't seem to be doing anything too weird - it is complicated but most of the complexity comes from there being a lot of input maps and parameters rather than it doing anything magical. without spending ages looking at it I think what happens is... They generate a texture (data texture) with a… -
Re: Maleficent's Throne Room [WIP]
Good job, those textures look very nice. I feel that they are more monochromatic than original paintings though. For example, on the top of your color palette there's a bright yellowish green color which is used on ref pics a lot. I don't really see it used on your textures that much. Your highlights seem to use a colder… -
Re: UV Mapping
Hey , this is a slightly different example but you could stop at ~ step 5. Your mesh is really more complex than the one in my example and might need additional vertex relaxation in places (like the crotch area). An alternate way that i used to do when i had no Peel Mode in Max was to simply use soft selection and move… -
Re: photogrammetry rights?
I did not realize 3D sites had copyrights they held to support distribution of those models, Nice. So just standard copyright stuff that I know seems to apply, which is fine but I do have a bit more specific example as a follow up; What about public displays such as statues in parks. When an artists creates something like… -
Re: Hatsya's jRPG-ish art dump
You seem subscribed to the belief that "anime art" is immune to the common pitfalls of any other style (anatomy, lighting, etc) - a misconception that WILL be a death sentence for your artistic growth unless you nip it in the bud. In drafting these characters, you've assembled a set of symbols without understanding the… -
Re: Last 5% of work = 40-50% of overall time?
Well you could argue, but thats more of a simple objection What is meant here are diminishing returns. Exponential increase. At a certain point, things you do will have far greater effect for the same effort. This is very prominent in art, or painting to be specific. You can make very rough strokes and achieve what you…
