Vertex alpha is more expensive than splat mapping, because it's alpha blending. Anything with transparency is generally more expensive, especially for mobile hardware. For the transitions between road and terrain, you could use the eat3d method in McGreed's link, except not using the blend texture for details... just…
I was looking at Amelia Rowcrofts process videos, she has her own likeness tutorials on her website. I noticed how little she adjusts the features back and forth after the initial foundation, so her method of measuring the face must be really solid with how little is being adjusted at later stages…
For this moment in game history when the 7th gen is about to give way to the 8th, 28k tris seems okay. For folks 'in the know', how 'bout those texture maps? Is not one but TWO 2048 maps acceptable in this day in age? Y'know, not for MMOs or mobile games or anything but for AAA? pf
For the priest... Just jump at him and do attack, attack, pause, attack. That will get the orb red. And he'll scoot off and prepare for an attack. But just follow and attack more. It should only take 1 or 2 more hits to break the orb. By now you should be able to pick up on what kind of attack he's going to do. He does 6:…
I really like your 5th character design. I think it would stand out well as a silhouette! I like your composition of the 6th thumbnail in the bottom right because it looks like Akali is waltzing in. I feel there's a story there and gives here so much more purpose.
Man: May 5th, Isn't the 6th your birthday? What would you like me to give you? Woman: Hmm... There must be something I haven't got. *TV news station talks about a visiting queen having a necklace with 11 perfect emeralds.* Woman: Those emeralds...
Vig nailed it. To my eye, squares are not as easy to see distortions with... short rectangles still kind of look like squares, until you rotate them sideways. But for me with circles it's easier to see if they're oval or not. I made the 6th and 7th ones, but I still like the R better, easier on the eyes I guess.
also texts can be saved, if someone calls you and goes "party at 8, between 45th on 46th on lex number 403 apt 7a ask for timmy" then you forget, you dont have to call them. you jusst look at your text. then again this is a poor example as nobody has ever invited me to a party.
I finally got tired of waiting for someone responsible to do something about this. ***WARNING*** artist writing code - prepare for your computer to be irreversibly damaged. If you have ever tried bringing vertex colors in from Blender - you will quickly run into the issue of no vertex alpha - until now! This is a two part…
Those 5th and 7th naga concepts are gorgeous! the Lina/Antimage ideas are interesting but i feel you could totally push the shapes to be much stronger, as the silhouette seems a little weak/too focused on small details right now. All in all nice work! good to have you here.
