Re: Photosourcing texturing tips.
Best tip I can give is to not expect to just grab pictures and mash them together to make a good texture. Make sure you don't overdo it it, and only add the photosourced material where its needed (ie, dont slap rust on an entire model, just on the areas where it would rust). I usually like to have a decent AO bake (if its… -
Re: Serious health problem
I'm really sorry about that. In fact I know what you're going through. In fact almost exactly. I majored in Digital Media Design and my last year started getting serious stomach problems. I like you went to see a Dr and found that my stomach was spasming for no reason at all. To this day no diagnosis has been reached. It… -
Re: Normal Maps: Can someone explain normals, tangents and split UVs?
@ Blenderhead: Normal maps don't really work that way. The entire point is to simulate more data than is really there. You need an external data source beyond the low poly to get that extra data AKA: a highpoly model. What your describing wouldn't make any sense. Its a bit of a deviation from what this thread was trying to… -
Re: tablet pc?
a "slate" tablet PC is one without a full keyboard, the one you're talking about is a "convertible" tablet PC. I own a convertible Gateway model from 2004 and overall I'm pretty happy with it. It works great as a normal laptop, but I can bust out Max or Photoshop as well. I'd like to look into models that have Wacom pens..… -
Re: The welfare state
After a few days thinking, I have come up with the following ideas. These are for people who don't abuse the system, and need a little help between jobs. 1. If you have worked for more than 2 years consecutively, and lose your job through no fault of you own (like company goes bust, downsizing, not because you got sacked… -
Re: Leinad - Portfolio feedback (any advice is greatly appreciated)
My gut instinct is that now your portfolio is kind of a clusterfuck (pardon the french). Rather than showing that you can do what's needed of you, by adding random stuff when you get someone interested in it, it looks like you can't make up your mind and we don't know what to expect from you. Whether or not it's actually… -
~yuuva's finished characters~
My other thread is intended to post WIPs and sketches/speedsculpts; this thread, however, is for my completely finished pieces! The best of these will be going into my demo reel in the future (target goal is February to have my demo reel up and ready) Even though these are finished, I still would greatly appreciate any and… -
Re: Modern Revolver
I'm not really feeling that handle at all... it looks very stubbed and doesn't sell the silhouette of your gun well at all, could you perhaps give it a corner towards the front side of the handle like how most magnums/revolvers have? I won't lie.. it's gonna be a bit of a pain in the neck to fix it now since you've already… -
Re: Sketchbook: Joeri "SabreWing" Roels
It's been almost a year since my last post. I've been extremely busy with improving my skills. I just finished my revision of a male and female base model. So started by creating a composite image of a man and a woman (for privacy reasons I will not post these) and in Photoshop create a modelsheet using those photos. I… -
Re: LMS - Divinity Character
Hey, Kend. The bust is looking nice, but I think its too early for a critique. I just wanted to quickly impart some advice that I'm only now starting to realize. Don't be scared of making mistakes. They're going to happen, no matter what. Just go ahead and make those mistakes. You will learn from them. If you're serious…
