Looking for some critiques and advice on my new hardsurface model
hi people! i've been working on this model learning more about hard surface modeling, made and rendered in blender and the textures in substance, it's fully rigged although i'm not the best with rigging yet. -
Re: Maya average normals averaged unintentionally
yellow means locked normals in maya - so all your normals are 'custom' guess your confused by this - so i think you should unlock normals and reset hard edges, and it will behave as expected. -
Re: Cylindrical crap topology help
Rotate the individual columns so the topology lines up as best you can at the seam to minimize cleanup. Then cleanup, because there's always cleanup in boolean ops. Finally, add a bevel or hard edge at the seam. -
Re: Sketchbook: Zetheros
For me it's the opposite lol, I suck at hard surfaces. Exactly, I think it's fun when you can get your character naked and customize their genitals even if there is no gameplay reason for it. And since you have multiple humanoids you can make interesting body designs that expends the lore. -
Re: I want to quit 3d because I can't bake models properly.
Hi! Not at computer right now, but a common mistake is UVs not being split at hard edges. Hard edges are useful at steep angles to control the lowpolys shading - a smooth curvature wouldn't qualify for hard edges (but can still have a UVs split). Your post is missing images of the lowpolys shading and UV layout, so hard to… -
Re: Make a triangle with selected edges in Maya.
Append to polygon is what I'd usually use but it's a bit fiddly and has a hard time selecting edges sometimes. -
SwarmBot (critiques are welcome here)
A short description. A hard surface practice that grew out of a simple blockout doodle. There were two goals in mind. Firstly, explore ways to add tertiary details to the polymodeling workflow. Secondly, make the modeling process more streamlined and welcoming for design adjustments. The third goal was to relax after work… -
Re: displacement map seams in maya/Arnold
First question I would ask is why are you using displacement? What’s the goal beyond this test asset? Displacement is a pain in the ass, hard to edit, and uses a ton of memory. Most productions I’ve worked on actively avoid it, unless there’s absolutely no other way. -
Hard surface concept collections
Hi, I just finished my first Hard surface vehicle. Im wondering if anyone knows about any hard surface concept collections online? -
3D Artist looking for job opportunities
Looking for job opportunities in game dev. I would like to offer my services as a 3D hard surface artist. I am mainly interested in weapons, but I'm sure I can manage most of hard surface game assets. Take a look at my latest project. Also feel free to check out my portfolio: https://madfox097.artstation.com/ model
