Creasing Issue on Cut Line (Maya)
I want to have sharp corners on the cut line while the model maintains it's round shape. Support loops make them sharp, but there's bad smoothing around the whole model (top middle). Googling around I think part of the issue is not enough geo so I smoothed the model and tweaked some of the verts back into a linear shape… -
Normal map problems
Hi all, Another normal map post.. I know.. but I am completely stuck. I baked my normal maps in 3d max and xnormal step by step following a tutorial (actually tried a few of them) so I know the baking process is correct. Retopology and UVing are correct too, but I'm missing something because when I apply the normal map in… -
How did they do the rocks in Shadow of the Colossus Remake?
https://youtu.be/TQg9lp8Q0gY?t=1m46s Ok, guys, I'm gonna need some insight here. There's a freaking lots of detail on those rocks, even for a Ps4 level title. By the sheer amount of details they have, I can suspect they were sculpted with Zbursh but I just can't get how they rocky surfaces of the wall have so many… -
Re: My unwraping sucks, not sure what im doing wrong.
doesnt look too bad imo, i did notice that the part with the gun is stretched in the up-down direction whereas on the model it's more longwise. try to keep faces the same proportion in the uv space as they are in model space. are you using a checkerboard texture when you're doing your unwrapping? theres a few standard… -
Re: Jungle Jewel Scythe
Hey James, here ya go. One thing to consider is where youre putting your contrast, both in your shapes and values. I think the crystals should be the focal point here so Ive given them more value contrast, in addition to muting the values on the handle. Theres also a lot of contrast near the business end of the scythe… -
Re: WIP Female Model
Obviously most of your proportions and pose are based around the concept art, so feel free to disregarde some of this. Body: Shoulders too far back, neck too thin, calf muscles too pronounced (smooth out and redefine muscle), fingers spread out very far (looks very uncormfortable), arms look too straight from side view… -
Re: UVW Unwrap Questions
flatten a map might be your first entry into doing unwrapping. Its easier as real unwrapping as it defines the map seams for you and flattens every shell piece with a good ratio. The problem are the amount of seams on your 3D model and especially their random pattern. Seams can break your texture as it splits texels (3D… -
Re: Old gas pump
That's looking a lot better! Nice improvements. It looks like you need some support edges on a few things, like the lower vent and the bottom of the pump hole? I'm not sure if you want those to be as rounded as they are? I think a bit more poly modeling on the pump handle and the support are in order. It looks like mostly… -
Re: Victorian / Gothic chair - zbrush - what do you think ?
This is very nice start. There are some things you have to watch out for though. I dont know how far you are in this so I will just mention the things that I notice. First the cushioning needs a little work. Its seems like you put in the buttons and then started to model the cushion part outward. However if you think about… -
Re: Fixing bad geometry from high res sculpt
I faced this. It is a devil of a problem. I had to move each polygon and then smooth the problems... Later I came to know of these.. If you have an earlier save 1. Try having a morph target before you change the geo and then use morph brush to clean it up. or 2. You could * take the new Geo as another subtool * Divide it…
