to be honest if i look at your models and these, i am not seeing a big difference in quality. i see difference in style. some of those examples have more details put into the models, but they go a little more towards realism. some of them have more contrast in the lighting. some of them have a little higher production…
Hi guys, first time posting here. I wanted to ask for some crit since i've recently started to "seriously" learn modeling (I came from an environment concept art background), and i want my carreer to move towards 3D environment art. I've been told that is important to first and foremost learn how to model decent props, so…
I tried to use Sampler few times through years and never found it any helpful really . Uninstalled it to save space. Just read it got some new AI upscale and photo to material . Is it worth a new try? Any better than before. Something that could take 2x2 meters megascan material and turn it into covering 10 meters long…
Do you have an example? Objects (especially ones that can be broken down into primitive shapes) have perspective/vanishing points too. Else you have to eyeball. I think when translating 2D designs into 3D, one should focus on capturing the "essence", so the 3D model stands on its own and doesn't fall apart from certain…
Have you looked at Adobe's site? Tons of great resources to get you going: https://substance3d.adobe.com/tutorials?software=Substance%203D%20Designer As just one example: https://substance3d.adobe.com/tutorials/courses/creating-a-tudor-house-wall
Last week I've mentioned about this special SubD modeling technique and promised to write a brief tutorial, so here it is. In a nutshell: Create a low-polygon model and set all the edges that you need to be sharp and crisp to be at 1.0 crease value. To be in greater control of the surface you can also assign weights to the…
Hello again Polycount :) So over the past two weeks I have been learning as much as I can about rocks, never made them before and to be honest I knew there is an art to them (love looking through the Rawk thread here in Polycount, and after working on my own, I take hat off to you guys), I just didnt realise just how much…
