Re: SciFi Rifle WIP
It would help if you could post the concept you are working from, as we would know what its supposed to look like :) So far it looks like some of your edges are still pretty soft, I would add a little more support to them, especially around the grips. Also, make sure you are beveling insets and extrusions to make sure they… -
Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge August 2014 (22)
@billy: Thanks, but I tried that already. I just need some more geometry, the normals on my low-poly aren't quite close enough to the normals on my high-poly, and I have too much cage extrusion. The normal map looked bad in Blender's viewport too, and that's TS synced with XNormal for sure. I think I'll go up to around… -
Re: Portfolio Piece - Lumberjack's Cabin

Hi all, Thanks for the comments. I'll try to answer everyone's questions: Yes the lighting is very flat. This is going to be in-game so I'm not going to waste time lighting it in max. I plan to rough the materials up a bit with some overlays for moss etc. Right now the entire cabin is built from one log material so if I… -
Re: Viperwolf and Tree nymph (first post, Img heavy)
I also began applying new layers of polypaint to the dark skin, working to keep it slightly more colorful and visible. pictured here is the body with a few new layers of poly paint applied. "colored") "colored2") "colored3") i went with some new aplahs on this one, primarily veins and cracks available on pixologic's… -
Uv'ing in Maya 2016: How would i go about UV mapping a complex curved/cylindrical surface?
Hi all! I am quite savvy with uv mapping a flat surface, but struggle to get my head around how to uv map a cylinder with extrusions and boolean'd segments (pictured), so that all of the surface gets uv'd correctly and does not have texture stretching, ultimately I would like these pieces to be uv'd suitably for a texture… -
Re: spr mark12
Thanks a lot for the feedback, should have payed a bit more attention to fp view, and should have seen the problems on the sight. I'll see if I can find some time to fix those areas up, but if I don't I'll make sure to keep the main thing (keeping in mind the viewing angle for insets/extrusions like that) in mind for… -
Re: Brown Bess Musket - help needed
Images are too small, mind uploading more hi-rez ones? So far, it looks you simply 'scratched and painted' the wear and tear effect wherever there are extrusions (such as the flint lock parts, etc) which looks cheap. Also, near the bolted part of the handle, the normals look bent. So yeah, UV's, texture sheets and higher… -
Re: Unreal 3 engine videos ( New content )
From what i know about it skanker it's real-time. I thought that paralax mapping you are speaking of is the same thing tho. The way it works (mind you i havent played with this yet) is you paint a grey scale image and it deforms -white is extrusion -black intrusion -grey (r128, g128, b128) no displacemnet I could be… -
Alpha channel with thickness shader?
Is there a shader available for Maya mental ray that gives the appearance of thickness when you use a cut out alpha. For example using an alpha channel of a leaf, it makes it paper thin I'd like it to have some thickness when viewed from a side angle. Like a one or two pixel extrusion. I tried modeling the leaf, but the… -
Re: Blender: Help with shading?
So, I've checked the normals and they're oriented correctly. The extra lines are to help remove Ngons and some helped Clear some of the issues (I actually started having issues when I started to clear geometry so I kind of don't want to) I'll try to straighten out some geo, but it can affect the size of the extrusions if I…
