Re: [Riot Art Contest] - Chris Shepherd
Reply by C.K.Shepherd · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Riot Art Contest› Riot Art Contest - VFXAbout half way through my brainstorming process to put together some alternative ideas. I started to consider that I might be concepting some rather elaborate VFX for my first time out, and put together some more simple but equally as effective ideas so that I don't get in too much over my head. Concept #5: With this I… -
Display123 , any thoughts , experience?
My desktop test stripes picture started to show colors while should be perfectly gray. So my guess it's time to re-calibrate. I misplaced my old Color Munki somewhere so want to buy a cheap display profiler of same class. In fact never needed to calibrate anything but sRGB monitor , 2.2 gamma and 6500 k color temperature… -
Re: Decals vs 2nd UV Channel?
a second uv set is more mesh memory and generally harder to place and manipulate than decals decals are generally more expensive to render, involve an extra material, can lead to sorting/depth related artefacting and are generally more work to manage. modular construction makes sense if you need to repeat a lot of… -

Re: Max/Maya users VS. Autodesk
I think its important to remember they are on a 3 stage plan based on feedback users gave them. Speed, Stability, New Features. After releasing 8 they hit the road and knocked on doors asking what users wanted we answered back, 1st speed, 2nd stablitity and then in a distant 3rd was a long wish list of very specific, very… -
Re: UVPackmaster 3 - GPU accelerated UV packer for Maya and Blender
Hi! We started implementing UVPM 3 for 3ds Max but the problem is it turned out that the Max architecture is very unfriendly to UV plugins.

Re: Need some help with texturing

Start with that to work out the basic diffuse (you can also add some AO renders as aid) and then pic a texture that is far most consistent and not to grainy and try to blend it (using some blend mode mixes). Whenever I start I always… -
Re: Sculpting a human male, need advice!
With thoracic arch, do you mean the spine? The onyl thing i can find when googling thoracic arch is the toracic aorta (which kinda seems to have the same curve as the spine does).

Re: Critique on my artwork
Hey I know, everything can't be learned in a day. This stuff takes time. Have you looked at tutorials for the various programs you are using, like substance painter? There is a lot of learning material available on the internet, much of which is free (youtube, artstation, etc.). With SP, there is nothing wrong with using…
