Losing my way a bit
Hey polycounters! Just wanted to throw up a post introducing myself and to see if this awesome community can help steer me a little more in the right direction. I'm currently a game design student from Ireland. Previously I was a Design Engineer for a company in England. I'm 31 years old now and have 1 year of my game… -
Very important and essential Zbrush question.
It's been 2-3 weeks since I started with Zbrush. I watched DOZENS of tutorials. But in none of them...they explain how to fix Edit Mode - T When I press this thing...everything goes wrong. I watched like 4 tutorials about it to try to learn how to fix it...TO UNDERSTAND IT...I could not find the right answer. I know you… -
UV Mapping (Maya LT 2015)
So I am running in to some frustrating blocks with UV mapping in Maya LT 2015. I am a subscriber to Digital Tutors and I am learning Maya LT (decided to roll with the big guys :P). I have been using 3D - Coat for most of my modelling and everything I have learnt has come from that program. So when I decided to start with… -
Breakdown of the AAA pipeline for game-ready realistic hero props
Hello! Some time ago I finished a project and thought I’d make a breakdown of the whole process from start to finish. This is not a detailed tutorial for every step but rather an overview over the process that I hope will help people (especially beginner 3D artists) get a better understanding of how the pipeline works.… -
Re: [WIP] Pixar Style Grass Experiment (Feedback Needed)
Nice! I guessed from the look of the noise but wanted to be sure. So, the first step to recreate an effect is to break it down into its basic components and understand it. You're on the right track, but your grass is missing the basic growth unit seen in the Pixar grass, making it too uniform. The charm in the Pixar grass… -
Re: Does Zbrush Live Up to the Hype? (Making the Most of My 30 Day Trial)
Day - Christmas Eve I started detailing the dragon's body by sculpting one foot, and duplicating it into position. Then I worked on the arms/legs. I wasn't feeling the 'chicken drumstick' look of the legs from the reference, so I decided to give my dragon more human-like muscle tone (it's my imaginary creature, I can do… -
Re: [WIP] Motorcycle Buell Ulysses XB12X Modeling HighPoly Model for Production
2.7_Fender Hi 3DModelers I have been modeling the fender part of Buell motorcycle for this weekend. This part is divided in two main pieces that they are connected by means of some bolts and nuts. The fender protects from mud to the tire and shock absorver. For that reason, each peace adquires the likeness form from the… -
Re: Overwatch/Destiny style character: Whip and Shield progress thread
Think about repeating design motifs. And don't lose silhouette read as you're detailing out the character. Look at it as pure black on white to make sure it still reads. C has that circle-target-hipbone symbol thing on the outer thigh and we don't see anything mirroring that anywhere else. C has that triangular pope-hat… -
Re: Why do AAA titles often aim for ''realistic'' visuals (with uncanny animation)?
hm well I wouldn't say writing follows art style it more like writing follows culture for better are worse Western Culture can't accept stylized anything the public can't at least you have to go to art circles for that . So you can easily write a different story from a Saturday morning cartoon you see it all the time in… -
Re: M1911 (Critique Wanted!)
The grip could use some more work. The front of the grip should be smoother, and both the grip safety and the rear of the grip seem too thick. The base of the magazine also extends a bit farther beyond the grip. I don't care for the color of the grips, nor for the lighter area on them. The screws are also typically inset…
