Re: Hand Painted Textures : How am I doing?
@Gannon - Ha! That's brilliant! I'll remember that, and the detail frequency is something I didn't consider, but does have quiet a good effect, it certainly breaks it up. I started painting out a tiling roof texture today between shifts so I might put a scene together with the textures I'm working on. I'll get back to the… -
Re: How to get into creative/inspiration mode
One technique could be finding an idea for every alphat letter. This could work for quickly sketching random ideas and then grow some of them, if they give you the 'spark'. Also possibly connecting ideas with colors you see. For example looking at anything yellow. You connect yellow with sun, beach or straw, then you… -
Re: Monthly Noob Challenge Concept Thread 5
Foliage is always difficult to model when you're a "noob". The Chinese (Japanese?) scene has one tree and it's a pretty simple one. The other scene has a few trees and grass, which is something even experienced artists find difficult to get right. The Japanese (I'm sticking with Japanese, since there is a bonsai tree there… -
Re: [UDK[ Diner Siege - Environment -
I like how this is turning out (and I've done a diner myself before) - I would say the biggest thing you could do for your piece is work with the lighting more. The concept is much more blue with a higher contrast. If you look at the front of the diner in the concept there is a strong light on it whereas the side is much… -
Re: [WIP] Abandoned Cave | Environment Art
Okay guys I am back with a semi big update. I placed almost the whole blockout into the engine and lighten it up. Once the main lighting is finished, the roof will be darkened, because I dont want to build the whole cave and by darken everything up I create some kind of infinity. But for now I dont know how :D For now… -
Re: 33 yo. Too late? Best learning path?
I think the consensus will be one is never to old...having said that, my first question is... Do you need a job to keep a roof over your head? After that, play to your strengths. You have knowledge in Premiere, after effects and photoshop, build on those i think. The question will be, where do those skills translate into a… -
Re: Post-Apocalyptic Railway
A good start. Not really a lot to crit on at this early stage but 2 suggestions I have are: 1. Put some boom gates or other type of barricade at the crossing. 2. The train needs some damage. If that power pole came down with enough force to tilt the train car and keep it suspended there then there should be some visable… -
Re: Modeling Portfolio Feedback
I really like the shops. Roof tiles look great and have a believable amount of spec which is always tough with natural low spec materials. Ground bricks look great too. What bugs me is the depth of the structures. They could use more depth on the interiors. Contrast the windows with a soft interior light rather than… -
Re: The value of money and games
I think its weird to messure the value of games(or any media) in time spent on them. that logic would put the price of a football trough the roof. I don't think that all the time spent on a game can be credited to the developer either. for example a lot of MMOs is good or not depending on the community around it. I have… -
Re: Gas Dock Enviro [WIP]
That's a pretty good scene. I suppose if you consider it done then disregard the following comments: It could benefit from some dirt/grime decals along the bottom edge of the buildings. The texture tiles on the roofs are a bit obvious, try fix or break them up with more decals. The blue tarp really could use something to…
