Re: PolyPoles!
I love this idea! I remember awhile back talks of new contests were brewing and someone brought up the idea of having a Polycount Tower contest, essentially modeling a modular room piece and all the pieces would be stacked, can't remember any more details or how much steam it gained but I thought it was a cool idea. And… -
Re: [WIP] [UE4] Runeblade - Bachelor's Capstone Project - Advice and Critique Appreciated
We're currently working on a new set of floor tiles that will hopefully look a lot better! We just ran into a few issues with how our wall segments were created so now that we've made it over that roadblock we're fixing the floors. Problem: Corners were shorter than the wall segments which messed up the tiling for our new… -
Re: What should I do?
Quoting this for truth. I started off with military sim, worked my way up to being a DS artist, was laid off in a year and went back to military sim, all the while working on my portfolio and trying to get back into games. I had just about given up on being a character artist (was even trying to learn how to make modular… -
Re: Hard Stuff (Maya & ZBrush)
@Praetor187 & Meathead, Thank you:) @shinobix, Thanks, and thank you for the feedback. I'll be texturing it again as part of demo for a class I teach. I will defiantly keep that in mind this time around. @Racanna, No, not really;) The base mesh was modeled in Maya. I haven't updated the text on those high poly images.… -
Re: How many polygons is too many polygons?
@jfitch: Thanks for the advice :) I would do it too, but as they are all parts for a modular armor I am keeping it together to make sure it all fits (there are some parts that interconnect - like arm guards that have to work with bare arms, sleeves and bandages and all of those 3 have to work also without the guards, so… -
Re: [CE3 WIP] Winecellar
Evening folks. Some proof of concept screens here. I think it works alright, but I need to re-work some assets. The pillar is too tall so for these screens I lowered them into the ground a bit. But don't worry I'll redo the pillar to fit the new ceiling. Also haven't re-scaled the barrels yet, I'll get to that once all the… -
Re: Monkey camp
Ok, haven't given up on this yet :-) Here is a second attempt at a reference sketch. I'm thinking I can maybe make some modular rock layers and assemble them, at least as a starting point? And I'll try to keep the style in accord with the character. I've also gathered some reference pictures for the rocks, but I don't know… -
Re: Halo 4 "Forward Unto Dawn" UDK
The snow on the ground is one big super mesh. In the hallway, those are modular snow pieces piling up against the walls. And they all share the same tiling map. And I agree about the lighting being flat. it actually looks much more dramatic in editor before light baking. The contrast between the light cast from the hallway… -
Re: [nDo 2 - Photoshop] Sci Fi Panel
Good start :) The only things I would say are: -Use some real world reference (can be anything, from computers, to machines, to small things such as bolts), so that it looks more functional and less like a bunch of shapes put together. -As mentioned before have a look at the other maps (spec/gloss), and have a go with… -
Re: Medieval Town Walk Way
Are you going into a game engine with this and making real-time assets or sticking to pre-rendered? It's a little hard to tell as kind of looks like to me everything's being made as unique high-polies rather than using a tiling material, modular models, or something of somesort, which might hurt your texture resolution in…
