They could do that to save verts, or the could just add more geo, and snap the outer edge verts to the walls. Or maybe floors were done first with extrusions and spline modeling and walls were extruded up, or there was just large modular wall set. There are many ways to go about such a eniveriment. Also for the metal…
pending the amount of polys you're going to use, vertex painting on some dirt diffuse/spec and painting normal intensity should break it up a fair amount. Probably want trims/patterns on the tex sheet, and make your current blocks larger. Give the blockout more character + shape. Check out the guys doing the arenanet…
@Michael_Ingrassia I really appreciate your insight and feedback. I've had the feeling for some time now that I've been losing perspective on my own work and I've been looking to revamp my portfolio before the next leg of my current job hunt. By the way, your gallery setup makes great sense - wish I'd thought of that! I…
Its always nice when they make things unstable when they try to improve the software. :p Troy has this problem as well. I dont seem to have it, but I would just save after every import/append. Did you post this in the tech forum of Zbrushcentral? I have alot of gripes about r3 but the addition of the planar and the trim…
haha, sorry :( I'ts just that I started with the texturing yesterday and the cape was I all had done. And I think im gonna do a mix between #1 and #3. Going to try to do a detailed version of the trim and camo pattern and see what it looks like. This is her in Maya with just the bake And in marmoset with the texture and…
It's actually city that you can walk on. Anyway I've look closely at AC, and I guess best thing to do it's to make semi-modular. Because houses here are usually boxes, it's best to make simple boxes with windows, trims etc, and then from those boxes make more complex-looking buildings. I think it's completely impossible to…
Well finally got my laptop all set up so I can work on this during the slow periods at work. I went and bought Shadow of the Colossus, Soul Calibur III, and We Love Katamari, all at once like an idiot so I don't get anything done when I'm at home! gah! I'm just kind of randomly scribbling ideas for trim and throwing the…
But we're not bullet proof, if this thing carries on much longer people will trim the fat from their personal entertainment budgets much more. As I see it we're either on the Stern of the Titanic or watching it sink from a half empty life boat. Either way, its not a great place to be. But I guess being a lucky bastard who…
About time Gauss. I love environment concept art and it's always nice to see new stuff. I am liking this so far. Maybe develop the pillars a bit more and the trim on the outside. I would take a look at Balboa Park in San Diego, CA for awesome reference. I posted some pics in the thread a while back. Here is a link so you…
I agree with the previous comments, very flat. Also, a few things bug me about the image. Those pillars look out of place. Maybe add some trim to the ends of those so they actually look like support structures. The broken log in the foreground of the scene had me scratching my head. Doesn't seem to fit. Also, since there…
