Hi everyone! My name is Syoma, and I’m a 29-year-old 3D artist specializing in Stylized 3D Art for games and other creative projects. I’m currently looking for exciting collaborations and projects to contribute to! With over 12 years of experience in 3D modeling, I primarily work in Cinema 4D but also use Zbrush, Substance…
This is a thing I started sketching a while ago, it's been a sort of go to project to open up and push some polygons around when I don't want to deal with my "main" projects. It's a redesign of Corporal Hart from timesplitters 2 in a more modern / realistic style. I don't really do a lot of sci fi so this is a fun change…
Hi, does anyone else have great difficulty when adding edge loops to tighten up geometry then when they smooth preview find they're constantly getting creases? I'm modeling a minigun and I've got a few extrusions for detail along a couple of cylinders but when I try to add edge loops I'm getting these annoying creases all…
Thanks for the update, nice work on the new foot. I can see how ai-gen tools can be attractive for the gee-whiz factor, how much it just goes ahead and fills in all the details automatically. But it’s unfortunately a very problematic process, encumbered by deep issues with morality. These models are trained on vast scraped…
Looking super cool! Love the shapes youre using and the compositions are really interesting. I do think one thing that stands out to me now is that your shots are looking very noisy, maybe the could use some areas of rest. using small detail in places where you want the viewer to be drawn to is a good technique to use to…
I wanted to share something I came across while looking at models and textures from Borderlands 2. There is a 3D model called WreckedVan that is used all over the game. It comes with a 2048 diffuse map and a second packed mask texture. The size might seem large for 2012 but given that it was standard practice to give…
Hi! I recorded a short video showing how I have my Loop Slice tool set up. I have this same hotkey system for multiple tools, and it works great! Strangely, there are two lists of tools to select from (I'm not sure why the difference), but you'll want to select Loop Slice from the second set of tools. And why Shift + Q/W/E…
People on Youtube usually don't explain shit Back in my Maya learning days i never heard ANYONE mention an Ngon or to split up the Ngon into Quads they just did stuff and expected me to understand which eventually lead to my down fall since i started using the tool and never understood why my models triangulated horribly…
Found this again today, featuring some of the old crowd, and a bit of what Polycount used to look like, back in 2002 when we were all trying to figure out how to make normal maps https://ericchadwick.com/examples/files/polycount_2002_messageboard.html
I did a simple looping animation, but when I go to post infinity > cycle, not all the cycles turn out smooth. I'm just not sure what is causing the occasional blip in the cycle. I've attached a screenshot because I'm not quite sure how to explain it.
