Re: The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge | March - April (101)
Starting to get somewhere with the Sewer environment. I sculpted the fan and made a stone wall tileable in Zbrush and set up world aligned textures to avoid weird seams. Also sculpted/textured some mud piles for the ground, but I think I'll edit these since they look very low poly when i actually put them in lol. I can't… -

Re: [3DS Max] Custom bones won't reset to default positions like bipeds
I don´t know if this is a good method or not(i´m sure there are much easier and nicer ways), but you could make controllers for every bone.Then you make one controller for each Controller you have for the bones and wire the X,Y and Z transformations in both ways and have the "Controller Controllers" stay at 0,0,0 for your… -
Re: [WIP] Stylized Env
Hey Noren Thanks again I do appreciate the help =) It's so dam easy to overdo stuff in 3D I really have a hard time to determine when I should move on to the next piece. I see your point with the draenor screen, I still have a hard time working with highlights since I'm constantly afraid I'll overdo it. I will take a look… -
Re: A challenging problem with normals
I dont bake normals in max because it would mean importing a hi rez mesh.I also use xnormal. Decimating a mesh from Z for use in Max for the bake is still decimation. Maybe you do this already but just in case. Lowpoly in max plus uvs for the low poly. Apply a projection cage to your lowpoly and use a decimated version of… -
Re: The Witch WIP
Looking cool so far. Got a couple of crits. The back of the hood is looking a bit weird, like its full of lumpy custard. Realistic clothing wrinkles/creases are tricky, just keep using reference and working on it. If the material is thick and soft, think of smooth s-shaped wrinkles. If it is thick and stiff, think of… -
Re: Results of 3ds Max platform survey
Interesting that this is mentioned right after Autodesk announced the OS X version of a certain other fairly popular piece of design software :p (which looks awesome I might add, a lovely interface update to software that badly needed an interface update)z You can add me to your list of would be switchers. 3DS Max needs to… -
Re: Those of you who make realistic human models, what methods do you use to make it easy
Get a tablet, Pick up Zbrush (Or any Sculpting program) Get some Anatomy references, Replicate what you see. Dedicate 2 hours a day to this. and you'll see improvement. Once you're confident with using Zbrush (ooor whatever) watch other peoples Speed sculpt sessions on YouTube: My 3 Favorite channels SupremeFunk Zbro Z… -
Re: [Riot Art Contest] - Christoph Lehmann
Reply by SimonT · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Riot Art Contest› Riot Art Contest - Environment ArtNice start! To me, the hands look a bit too small and the arms might be a bit too short. But i can't say that from that perspective. I would pose it into t-pose and compare it with an anatomy reference like this: http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/anatomy-overlays-female-front-3536792.jpg Or you look for one which fit more to… -
Re: Double-Sided Shader or Model Backfaces
I think its better to have a double sided shader for specific things and everything else culled, but with that said, I tend to do a duplicate and inflate/z translate to create backfaces since I can do darker shading for hand painted stuff, which takes advantage of the situation to make it look better. With the case of…
