Re: Photogrammetry Thread
Been using ReCap 360 for a self portrait and have been getting some good starting points from it. I did have an angry looking face in this, the sun was shining directly into my eye so I ended up squinting a lot. Attacked it in Zbrush and eventually got it to a workable level: Not many defined features unfortunately. Pushed… -
Re: Mindset and working each channel at once ?
I hardly ever use smart materials. I more or less do what throttlekitty and poopipe have described. look at the reference, separate it mentally by whatever it's relevant qualities are. make layer groups and name them accordingly. add mask to the groups and start masking off each area accordingly add fill layers within the… -
Re: Ivy foliage on real time project ? technics ?
I've never used Ivy Generator, but if it is giving you a hi-res mesh of vines with leaves, you could do what @Obscura said and bake them down into something that is workable to create a low res mesh from. If you didnt make high poly leaves, and just mapped leaves to cards /w alpha, then you wont be able to use… -

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] lol, we are never going to go lightspeed, nothing, except light, unless we find ways to break physics like crazy. there's not enough energy in the universe for that to happen.

Re: What can improve SDesigner performance?
You need more GPU. More ram won't hurt but it also won't help. A 1070 is workable at 1-2k a 1080 is fine at 2k. To work at 4k all the time you need something like a 2080ti or a 3080 and it still won't be buttery smooth. You also need the rest of your pc to be able to feed the GPU - we tested a 2080ti against a 1080 on one… -
Maya UV's Jumping back
Alright, this is just driving me NUTS, and I can't figure out the cause. I've had this happen for quite a while (not sure if it's just since I upgraded versions or not tho...) I'll be moving around my UV shells and scaling/placing them into 0-1 space (when I'm grouping things I make sure to keep them within the 4 grid… -
Re: Pirate Ekko - League of Legends FanArt
Very quick note (since DavidCruz caught most everything else haha) but his skin is waaay light, compared to ingame ekko and also compared to the concept. Might be worth studying how light reflects and diffuses on darker skin tones so he doesnt appear so washed out, but also heres some notes because while the skin stood out… -
Re: Career advice PLEASE HELP!
Hey there, this is my room mate who is a character artist in film as of recently (but honestly it didn't seem to matter much -- game or film just have the foundations). I also think this is chronologically based. https://www.artstation.com/angela_rico I'm just going to send you some content to start with and hope it leads… -
Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge October 2014 (24)
Woo, nailing down lighting, proportions, layout, etc. Guess I'll get started on the textures and the foliage in a bit. Maybe it's just that I grew up in the country, but the concept doesn't read as creepy to me and I'm not interested in pushing it towards that. I think it's mostly the chimneys. The building in the front… -
Re: Game Art Education - What do I need?
subscription to gnomon workshop/digital tutors learn to draw/paint a bit to a certain level I think it helps a lot - basically will find what to do for this by asking Start learning software and modeling along with tuts and doing all that. Find exactly what you want, go into that. You should be able to draw decent enough…
