Re: sci fi hangar bay
Looking pretty awesome! Not every edge needs to be scratched exposed metal. You can highlight and pronounce edges in other ways. A slightly lighter diffuse edge with slightly brighter spec works great. When you have ever edge damaged not only does it stop making sense, but it starts to become noisy. A good way to do damage… -
Re: cheap ambient occlusion
I never said it's a substitute for AO, i said it's a good starting point for some shading in your diffuse. What I was aiming more at a trick for Ambient Occlusion was my drop shadow suggestion. I suppose I should have thrown in the drop shadow method before the normal map shading trick. :-P sorry for the confusion. To… -
Re: Practice Barrels/Ambiant Occlusion Baking
Yes, it's spelled ambient. Ambient occlusion (AO) doesn't really makes sense for a mesh that has no real indentations or overlaps. AO is basically a way to add soft shadows to the indentations or crannies of a mesh. The ribs on a barrel don't really have enough detail to warrant baking a map, just paint soft dark lines on… -
Re: SciFi Door crit please!
One thing to experiment with is to take 90% of the scratches out of the diffuse but keep them in the spec. Experiment with spec color. You can get some nice greasy grimy dirt with color. Start off with purple/dark browns and play with it from there. The normal definitely is lacking some of the hard edged details the… -
Re: WIP-tell me if im headed in the right direction
Hey there, I did another paintover to show you where you could save space. The entire wood roof-supports are using the same texture so you should have them all share the same space. You can also dual purpose this support texture as trim. If you were to put the roof support in-between the wall and roof tiling textures you… -
Re: PBR - AO - Question
@s6, Thanks a bunch. I didn't know when a light hits a surface it does remove the AO I have plugged in. The surfaces are in shadow still use the plugged AO that's nice and... also bad. I'm going to say why in reply to @radiancef0rge. @radiancef0rge, Sorry for not mentioning the engine. It's UE4. It does shadow the cracks… -
Re: I am new here, need some advice from the pros
You dont need a tutorial for Marmoset. Once you learn how to make a 3D mesh, UV it, make a diffuse map (texture), Normal (lighting information, gives the illusion of depth/ high detail) and Specular map (tells the engine what is reflective and what is not), then marmoset will make sense. Just task yourself with making a… -
Re: Vray + UDK= Archviz
ok folks this is what i have for you all (in theory) as I cant try on my laptop :D , well since Vray now have realtime rendering feature but still it takes ages for final render it came in my head that before all that RT stuff in Vray the other way around was to not render the actual scene but rotate camera at certain… -

Re: [Riot Art Contest] - School time Ahri

I guess it depends on how low you want to go. - Make Head, shirt, arms, top part of the dress legs and shoes 1 watertight piece of mesh.
