Re: laptop for art and gaming?
main reason to upgrade to 7 over personal preferneces is going to be stability for your software. Im not a fan of 7 but all the hot fixes are aimed at it and if arent supported wont be for much longer. My 2 cents on the laptop bit, I run an asus gaming rig for creation, it runs starcraft on high settings no prob and I… -
Re: New Texture Site (www.ultimatetextures.com)
Unfortunetly you might not have much luck with the sale of texture maps. cgtextures and flickr.com gives them away for free and you can find amazing images upwards to 4000x4000 pixels. There arent really any suggestions I can make except one. Put an IP tracker on your site, allow minimal downloads a day as well as offering… -
Need advice for a hairstyle/Xgen
So this is the first more sophisticated hairstyle I try. The only way I could come up with (especially for the braids) is sculpt the haircut in Zbrush and then use painteffects and edge selection to create curves in maya, to then use them as xgen guides. As you can see on the pictures it is not very successful. If someone… -
Head sculpt Anatomy Check
Hey, I'm making a generic head that I am going to make multiple surreal versions of for an environment. Id like to make sure my proportions and anatomy are good before making a mesh out of it and starting to sculpt the different versions using this head as a base.

Re: Showreel Piece
As enviroments arent really my thing, i'll do my best to critique it so far. AS I can tell, The silhouettes from your models leave a bit to be desired. That might be how its meant to be, considering their trash cans, i still think it deserves a look at. Not to mention, I'm not sure what the last one is supposed to be, it… -
Re: BORDERLANDS 2
Well, the first game, it was all about finding the vault and the treasures inside, if imnot mistaken. the second one is all about stopping the dude from opening the new one and unleashing whatever is inside. I just dont get why we are called vault hunters if we arent actually trying to find the vault ourselves and go into… -
Re: [UDK] Future Man - Beyond The Past [Indie Game]
Hey, today I worked on a better material and hayfork. I created a Mastermaterial with all kind of parameters for upcoming props. Also added a rimlight effect. @Shantosa, thanks a bunch for the link :) But since the sword will be pretty small on screen I haven't really thought about putting in more details. If it would have… -
Re: First Character WIP
Here's a list of a few things to think about: Eyes are too big, chin is too flat and wide, lips too defined and feel like they arent really part of the face, cheek bones and zygomatic process need definition, hair is too close to the ear (left and right side), eyebrows dont follow a realitic angle/pattern. Best thing to do… -
Re: Modular pieces and draw call?
Instancing is one good reason. A level may have upwards of 15-20 million tris in - you dont want to be storing all that as unique geometry if you can avoid it LODs are another. If its all in one piece you cant lod it out smoothly Im not sure on what unreal does but its entirely possible to batch draw calls per shader…
