Re: Yet another Showreel thread!
The website the way you currently have it setup looks a bit old school and unprofessional imo. Personally I wouldn't worry about that too much I think your main focus should be content. The only thing that stands out as really solid work to me is your latest with the nike shoes. I think you should make a game ready model… -
Re: Why the big fuzz about PBR?
I think the big "fuzz" about pbr is more about the surounding stuff rather then pbt texture maps themselves. For exemple we can have realtime ssao without much hassle. We have reflection in every material. Wich is a big one. Wich also leads to static/realtime global illumination depending on the engine. For a normal… -
Re: Is searching your first step?
Are you referring to in life in general or with art? As far as art goes, I spend days just looking at references, tutorials, techniques, etc. For example...the jet bike that I'm working on...I had to know how everything on a bike works before I could start on a part. Anytime something goes wrong, I pretty much always scour… -
Re: General Retopology question
I personally find it easier to work with the features of a human face if it has a nice edgeflow to it. The bigger reason to consider retopology for illustration would be to maintain a consistent density. It can help with sculpting, but it'll also help make sure you're not wasting exponential amounts of polygons in areas… -
Re: 'Ichiraku Ramen' WIP
If you're gonna toss in the recycle bin, do the correct one: Pastic/Can and combustibles. I haven't seen that recycle logo here before. Either that, or I haven't really been paying attention. Your "drapes" should be one piece with a wooden dowel holding them up. Classy places use rope :P. I chose Naruto since it speaks to… -
Re: [Free Maya Script] Pattern Selection
Hi @maksoon & all! The script has now been updated to include another command called "patternSelection.patternSelectionRepeat()". Everything else should work just as before, but the new command will execute the script until nothing new is added to the selection. Same Gumroad page, just go redownload, replace the old script… -
Re: New Portfolio Piece (finally) - Victorian/Lebbeus Woods mash-up
UPDATES... Haven't had a chance to work on this since the spring. Recently finished Dishonored 2 which inspired me to come back to this project. I didn't like the direction that the Victorian wall were heading so I decided to redo it from the ground up. I felt the old design was too "boxy" and had no character. Added a… -
Re: What does our hardware look like?
some Dell Precision box using Xeon 2.6, 8 gb ram, some random HDD, quadro FX 1800 at work, with 2 not quite full-HD res dell screens and some pre-bamboo Wacom (I'm a tech artist, don't really need it that often). I just hate the slow HDD performance of that thing because there's tons of crap bogging it down - Hansoft… -
Re: Fathers Day Zsculpt
So yeah i think its a good idea but at the moment it might create a bit of an awkward silence if you give it to him in that state :P Like, "Oh that's nice but who is this old guy?" You really need to think in space for that one. One thing that will help you doiong so, is to use a more top-down lighting setup when you work.… -
