Hello, Jonathan. Here are a few examples of my work, https://www.artstation.com/alvordr. In the past, I've focused on organic modeling, but more recently have been mainly concentrating hard-surface modeling since I also do 3D printing. Feel free to DM me here if you want to collaborate.
Plush is probably not the best choice for (detailed) photo scanning, as the deeper parts between the hair are obscured pretty quickly when you change your position and you'd need a crazy resolution to scan the actual hair. The overall falloff/fresnel effect caused by this might not matter that much, but could still play a…
I ran some render tests and some of the ambient shadows were too strong(the metal piece at the bottom of the sheath, for example), but that was just because the object weren't close enough to eachother. The rest of the model was fine, so I decided to move on to texturing. I also prepared an ID map to have an easier time…
Hi everyone, I'm not sure if anyone would be interested in this, but
thought I would give it a shot just in-case any artists out there is looking to
do the same . I'm developing a series of prototype games (small games).
The games are created to explore areas of game mechanics and production. One could
think of the game…
For basic sculpted detail in your example, a simple rectangle shape is needed. General guides not hard rules. * Only add extra edges / tris when you have form change or want to keep the curvature of surface smooth to match with high poly curvature. As you have noticed too many small tris by pro artists, those usually are…
Hi! Its looking better, really nice progress!. I think your fog is way too intense, its drowning out a lot of your details here. Its hard to find the right balance but I would say keep messing around with it, you want it to add to the overall composition of your environment, right now its taking away from what I thin is…
From purely selfish needs and from what I learned from talking with others, I decided to start a MaxScript knowledge and question thread, where we can post all the resources for MaxScript we got and post any scripting questions we have, without cluttering up the Tech Artist - What are you working on: FOREVER Edition!…
I've begun to try kismet instead, just for prototyping, and now I cannot even get that to work. I am trying to do just a simple "up" swipe in the z-direction in UDK Mobile utilizing kismet. I've followed both examples given by ffejnosliw and m00t at this link on UDK's forums:…
Hi! By overlap, I meant one part (for example jacket) having UVs overlap with itself due to the generative modifiers (mirror, solidify) - not UVs of different character-parts overlapping (jacket and pants for example). Here is a quick walkthrough how I checked with the jacket: 1 - UV Sync Selection is enabled in UV editor,…
Thats fine but focus on geeting every proportions right and the same feeling of the concept - for example the stairs - they are 2 inclimbs going up with flat walkway between where the arch is. the staris are not that steep so you can have the nice depth and view of the second arch and builings down the strteet. the street…
