Re: How much of the visuals in Abzu can be explained by diffuse textures?
oh for sure..that's a given. The art direction is what makes the look, but on asset by asset level, I still suspect there's some custom shader work helping sell the look. Screenshots like this make me think it isn't your standard blinn-phong: http://cdn.escapistmagazine.com/media/global/images/library/deriv/927/927537.jpg… -
Re: Game Ready Anatomy Study
You are missing the placement of the eyes and cheeks, which is making your head still look a little flat. Your eyes are sunk pretty far into your face. If you look at somebody's profile you only see a little bit of their eye, and you also get this nice curve from the orbital bone through the cheek. Try to find a good… -
Re: Anyone own/used guns?
I owned a Desert Eagle .50 for a while. It did draw a lot of attention at the range....very loud. It kicked like a mule, the ammo was very expensive but it was fun. Mine jammed a bit so I sold it. I have my Baretta 92FS which I like a lot. Remember a longer barrel will be more accurate. Think about a thumb rest grip for… -
Re: [W.I.P] ZZ(ZOUTZUUR) Grenade 01 (Feedback is Welcome)
Hello, Brian. I just searched the google as "used grenade", "grenade", or "3D grenade". https://lh3.ggpht.com/0qIr4xCyokAQ7pQVk1g5pBAH27LXWp89qxREn0mVoh5NhIHKt1HQXLX0I3x_IjK6ohg=h900 https://cdna.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/004/770/974/large/stefan-ekelund-stickgranade.jpg?1486133286… -
Re: Wireframe only shader for UDK
UDk has one, http://udn.epicgames.com/Three/DevelopmentKitGemsSobelEdgeDetection.html It's simlar to the polycube linked one, but it might be a worth looking into because you can change the little things like edge contrast, thickness, depth control. Scroll near the bottom to see some variations it can achieve. Also, at the… -
Re: Good Blender plugins for hardsurface (weapons)?
Gotcha yeah - so in this case you can definitely try some "original" workflows, even if they end up influencing/limiting your designs. For instance you could decide to not even do highpoly models at all, and simply use trim sheets of details in order to add interest to otherwise simplistic models. So in a sense your… -
Re: 3 Week 'Normal Map' learning experience. Need your guys help.
That's not how normal maps should be used. A normal map won't make a 8-sided cylinder look like a 624-sided one. Your hipoly is just a turbosmoothed version of the lowpoly, there's no reason to use a normal map for that. You are not creating any new details on the hipoly but just making a new geometry that doesn't match… -
Re: Quad Ngon Modeling Techniques
One more thing that I wanted to mention regarding non-quads and subdividing. Tris and n-gons will always subdivide to quads anyway. They are only n-gons at the poly mesh level: 3x4=12 5x4=20 6x4=24 7x4=28 9x4=36 11x4=44 and so on.......... Just thought I'd add that in here. This doesn't mean that n-gons are always going to… -
Re: Handgun modelling - help appreciated
Thanks for the responses, appreciated. I did want to separate the gun into its parts (frame, slide, trigger, hammer) but hadn't thought of separating the sights from the slide or the trigger guard from the frame. How would you all recommend keeping a cleaner geometry? There's a lot of curves on it and it seems like it'd… -
Re: Kuroi Akumu - Progress thread #ARTWAR
Hey everyone! This is my final entry for the Art War character contest. Throughout the project I made a lot of changes and learned a lot from this experience. Theres a lot of things that definitely need work and certain aspects suffered due to time and life but in the future I hope to do better on that. Hope you like it.…
