Re: Ancient Forest (Vincent Lebocey concept sketch)
@teodar23 Hey thanks for the feedback! Yeah now that you mention it, the pathway really looks pretty bland, with just the cubes scattered. The concept was very sketch heavy so I couldn't really tell what was there, but that's where I'm supposed to come in and make it interesting haha. I can make some more objects like worn… -
Re: Pokemon Pallet Town (Realistic Interpretation) Dintober
Big screenshot dump! I have been chipping away at learning textures and working on the project these last few days (just been learning designer) so there wasn't much to post but I made my material in Designer and also grabbed a grass material from the Quixel bridge and got some vertex painting going. I may make the plan it… -
Re: [Training] + [Dump] - Ace Post
About the golem, I'd probably bring it into the concept stage again, mainly because I feel like it needs a stronger design before you proceed. It's a good start though! The scene looks alright but as you said taking it into UDK will probably be worth it :) Nothing shows off your modeling and texturing skills though. To me… -
Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge December 2014 (26)
monkeymintaka, it sure helps, but you have it pretty well done :) CatalystFire, that looks good :) A quick coat of paint and you're done! krztyczekpstryczek, nice blockout! The only thing I would do is scale the two lower thirds (the stone part) up just a tad. The altar seems a bit taller in the concept. Other than that,… -
Re: Help! I'm in art Purgatory, but I have no art...
It's definitely intimidating when you look at the wide spread of programs and disciplines that make up a "3d artist". I think we all have some program we've been putting off learning while we finish other work. "Oh I have to pickup marvelous designer", "I never got the hang of hard surface", "I need to learn rigging… -
Re: General Question about modeling simple props with many shapes
I'd say if elements don't have a smooth transition it's almost always better for them to be separate pieces. There is nothing wrong with floating geometry besides maybe having an AO baking error or something like that. Sometimes it's easier to just bake things down into your low poly. It's really a case by case thing. It… -
Re: [Portfolio] Brandon K. - Environment Artist
One of the main things that stuck out to me was there seems to be a very low image resolution on some of your images, most notably the Epic Mickey screenshots. I think it really detracts from the presentation of the whole thing. I really like most of the work on there, reminds a little of some of the stuff I've done. :)… -
Re: Choosing best direction for development
Also consider that env work is not just about doing props or texturing buildings then stacking that together. Good enviro work relies on a lot of very smart things to do right (creative tiling, mesh modularity, texture blending, normals editing) that are rarely taken in consideration when doing char work. Char work is sexy… -
Re: Looking for a mentor
Thanks for taking the time to elaborate, Pior. I do actually spend a lot fo time researching architecture, because that's really what I like modeling best. I own quite a few Francis K. Ching books, and tons of monographs on diverse topics such as victorian, gothic or east asian architecture. So I guess I am on the right… -
Re: First Environment Asset on Indie Game. Looking for Input.
The lower columns are rather stout compared to the reference image. When working with bricks, it's important to line them up in the correct position. The layer of bricks at the bottom of the lower windows is off; it should be exactly at the bottom of the windows, instead of a bit low. The bricks are also off at the ledge…
