Re: r-bot player model for experimental game engine
For hard surface stuff you are probably better off using photoshop instead of zbrush for texturing. 90% of hard surface texturing is going to be good spec and gloss maps, but zbrush won't really let you do that properly. Bake out an AO map, tangent normal, object normal, cavity, and convexity map and use them all to create… -
Re: Apocalypse Seer Concept
Nice work! I look forward to seeing the finished low poly model. A lot of the detail in the high poly model comes from faces with surface normals that are perpendicular to the surface normal of the low poly model. That detail is showing up in the AO, but you're not going to see it in the projected normal map. I like the… -
Re: WIP DJI F450 quadcopter
Looks like a very accurate model. I think you could really improve the presentation though. Everything in these shots seems very flat, lots of pure white or otherwise solidly colored surfaces. Hard to read the forms. The UVs look auto-unwrapped, not inherently a problem but pretty suboptimal for texel density (surely a lot… -
Re: [WIP] M-O from Wall-E
Yeah, let me do some class-related stuff first for warm-up. P.S. That JAIZ guy from FB and Artstation is a huge inspiration and a soul breaker at the same time. XD P.S.2. Why are most hard surface modeling stuff on Youtube are done with MAX instead of anything else? Comparing to MAX based modeling videos there's not a lot… -
Re: Bo & Cass character/render critique
This is WAY too highrez You did no optimisation to the meshes and they are definitly zremesher mesh used straight out of zbrush wich is definitly a big no no (IMO!) especially on characters. Most of your meshes are pretty simple surfaces that do not require that amount of topology at all. A higher mesh density is supposed… -
Re: god o war 3 screenshots
The pictures are weak. Glossy doom 3 surfaces, boring light and bloom killing it. God of war 2 looked better, kind of. The composition, the usage of bright and dark, glossy and unglossy surfaces was a lot better in the ps2 ones. The trailer looks much better, but again, the light is pretty boring. I'm a huge god of war fan… -
Re: L O S T
Bounchfx: You have a very good point. While I still think it detonated, there really is nothing more than a white flash, which could just be another time slip. It could be something new even. Just adds to the anticipation of the next season :) Also, that's a deep damn hole. She could have detonated it and had little result… -
Re: New/updated portfolio site
Actually, I remember Rorshach mentioning the Path Deform modifier once and I started messing around with it. Basically you just draw a spline and you can have shapes follow that spline with it. So in the case of the vines or cables I would just model them straight and then deform them along the spline. Also there's a… -
Re: Awesome tutorial from DW 4 winner!
Yeah fritz try not to have them so far apart, i only had it like that so it was easier to understand. I think it might be working but you might have bent your surface first, you need to do this with the flat plane then deform it. If that wasnt the problem make the blend distance much larger. Also as said use a nurbs… -
Re: Star Citizen Security Turret
I prefer the left version personally, I think it's just more interesting. One thing that sticks out to me is the edge wear. Your edges are pretty uniformly worn on the left version (and in some areas it looks like an obvious procedural generator), and I'm not sure if there should be that much wear on it. The turret is…
