Re: Hitting Character Likeliness ?
I think practicing drawing might help, or looking at drawing tutorials. 2D artists imagine their character features as shapes to create variety. Here's some examples of tutorials I keep. I think it's good to view variety in the most exaggerated terms cause I personally tend to under sell facial features. So when i'm aware… -
Re: [UE4] Rockstar Games' BULLY environment recreation
@palexpereira - I'm glad to know I've inspired you! UE4 is great, and the PBR really makes everything look stunning. I often learn things through experimenting (UE4's material editor is great for that) and Google certain nodes when I'm not sure how to use them. In terms of general tutorials, you should check out Dave… -
Re: Displacement Map Seams (zbrush, scan)
Photoshop does something to EXRs. I don't think that it fully supports 32bit floating point EXRs. Just flip them during Bake or in Max set Bitmap U or V value to -1.0. Akin Bilgic created an awesome tutorial on Accurate Displacement map workflow = http://www.cggallery.com/tutorials/displacement/ However i've gotten near… -
Re: [3DS Max/Dota 2] Need help with animations
Well, since nobody answered my question so far and the thread has moved dangerously close to the second page, I'll bump this. On top of that I'll split up my main question a bit (and add some more), maybe someone can help me with parts of it: 1. What kinds of ways to animate a model can be used? Do I need to rig bones with… -
Re: Lighting in UDK help

I had thought i had it figured out but i was horribly wrong, i have looked through some lightmass tutorials and how to UDK light stuff but a lot of them just say place lights and click build and the… -
Re: Portfolio review
The site is pretty poor. I'd either recommend switching to a single page gallery site, or a thumbnail layout of your work that then links to individual pages that simply contain renders of the work. I'd recommend switching to Weebly or Wordpress if you're going to go the free route instead of paying for your own domain and… -
Re: Notetaking
you have no idea how many people don't take notes, just to come back to ask the same questions again, and again, and again. It's part of the reason I have a job, and part of the reason I don't get things done as quickly as I sometimes want ;) I keep my own tutorials and notes organized in EverNote, but that's not longer… -
Re: Getting started!
My first advice would be to look into the Polycount Wiki. Then you should try the trials of some programms and choose which fits you best or just stick with free Programms like Blender(or similar, but Blender should have everything you need, if you learn to use it) My advice would be to do some Tutorials from here or… -
Re: How do i get clean normals for produced environment objects?
Some model it in zbrush, some do it in box modelling software. If lazymouse and trying to draw the details isn't working for you in zbrush it might not be the technique thats the problem. Everyone has different methodologies to produce the end result you just have to find something that works for you. I would personally… -
Re: Pilot's portfolio
That is a very cool, yet odd tv. Your model's topology needs a tad more work. Right now it looks so forced in. the wires are competing with each other to generate the shapes. In the end ends, all the tris and quads you have in there do create the shape you need. Yet, they dont have a solid feel to them. It looks so nice,…
