Re: Gears of War - Impressions?
You're right about the split screen mode, and the A button (I kinda wish you used the stick-clicks to do these actions, it's sad to have to take your hand off the controls to do anything, doesn't take TOO long but sometimes those seconds you could be turning you have to be doing something else). The lighting as well,… -
Re: Question about skin texture
Welcome. Along with what MoP has suggested, If it's for an in game character, I tend to 'imagine' a light source very much like she has. Which is somewhat above and in front of the face, with soft edge shadows. Once you've figured out where the light source is, you can paint in subtle form such as cheekbones etc. I aspire… -

Re: 3dsmax favors local-space normal maps?
Thanks for the comparison images, guys. That's really helpful - and cool looking models too! Adding a check box to choose which way the channels should go is very easy. Yes, I will add that to all my shaders. It's a handy feature - especially for a shader that's being used by several different companies. Solving the sharp… -
Re: UDK Underwater Scene (Large Images)
Well, I had a fiddle with things last night and changed the path of the camera after the sunken Rowboat and InfiniteBubblesCannister™ so that it moves a lot quicker over the scene and towards the dropoff. There you can see loads of mysterious lights in the depths behind the silhouette of a huge whale. The problem, is that… -
Re: Library Environment
i took the liberty of doing a basic colour correction on your image. I think the environment definately has potential but the lighting is letting it down at the moment. I took my lead from your skybox texture which has a lot more purple and reds in it, whereas currently your image is very very yellow right across the… -
Re: Right.. time to draw!.. oh wait I can't
I cant really draw anything amazing, i know the basics of perspective and all that but have a hard time doodling anything amazing looking, super out of practice. I don't find it really effects my 3d work at all, most of the environments I have ever made were either based off a concept painted by a wicked 2d artist, or tons… -
Re: (Characters) Im Going To Build Better People
I have been noticing that some of her planar transitions might be a bit soft, mainly around the temples/forehead and side of her face and I'm going to play with sharpening some of those transitions to balance the softer forms. As for the lighting it will be different in the next update, I play with the lights till I find… -
Re: Pirate Airship
hi there, welcome here :) nice update with the texture. Goes into the right direction. But of course there is a lot you can do. Btw.. painting these kind of textures tends to be easier if you set your material to fullbright (100% selfilumination) in max. That way you don't mix light from the texture with light from the… -
Re: Head Series: Asian
Hi Panga! Looking good. Make sure you test that guy under different lighting conditions too. I noticed that photosourced assets like that can look odd as soon as you start rotating the lights around. Also you could try to gently paintover some areas to make him less 'photo' maybe? Eyes will be important to get right too…
