Westwood ElDorado Revolver
I recently wrapped up my latest project which is a western take on the Colt M1861 Navy Revolver. Modelled entirely in 3ds Max with slight damage done in ZBrush. Textured using Substance Painter and Rendered in Marmoset Toolbag 3. 4K texture 19216 tris Overall I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. I spent a lot of… -
Re: [Modular Character] Is there any solution to reuse armor over a range of body size?
@rollin Nope, wrap deformer works this way, the principle of RBF is more complicated and implies the use of some really big matrices. You can also check the blog of the author of last video above. http://www.polygon.me/2017/12/rbf-based-bind-conversion.html http://www.polygon.me/2018/08/rbf-character-conversion.html and… -
Re: Can't land a job after graduating from college. Advice appreciated.
That's something I can never wrap my head around. What exactly is "made it" in this our industry? Every artist seems to have their own perspective in the matter and I know several that didn't pay a dime to get their foot in the door. Several of the ones at the top started when the industry was young and many of them… -
Re: [WIP] Fisherman's Dagger
So I am back with Updates! I created a pure ref board with some reference for things, It was really hard finding images of blades with cloth wrapped around the handle like the main concept, but I wasn't spending too much time looking for that specific thing. I did find images of blade handles and how wide they are which… -
Re: [COMPLETED] N8t the Grenademan
Still working on the retopo for this boy, but might be taking on a second personal project to get some more blood flowing. Here's how the (currently bald) Grenademan is looking. I still need to get the vest pockets and his arms and feet out of the way before I try to wrap my head around hair cards, but we're getting there!… -
Re: Trying to create a liquid material contained inside glass (erlenmeyer flask?)
Ok, so I've spent time trying to wrap my head around how Vertex Displacement works. I've got some idea of the mechanics, but the implementation is still eluding me. I'm getting inconsistent results in terms of the movement not moving in the direction I'd want it to (it seems to move side to side instead of up and down),… -
Re: Affinity Designer and Photo ?
Thanks for the comment. I did have a chance to try it too. As usual their programs have both advantages and disadvantages. I love how quick they work and especially save 16bit hi res files. In PS it's a torture. Love their version of "smart objects" being instantly updated in master file without saving originals. Prefer… -
Re: Maya - Cut a mesh while snapping to a curve
Another option is to use Create Deformers>Shrink Wrap, which you can do straight in polygons, but you're still snapping or cleaning up. Using the old SplitPolygonTool (not the new one from the MTK, it won't let you do snapping), you can turn off "snap to edge" to allow points free on faces, but the start and end points… -
Re: Jet Bike WIP
Impala88: I should probably take another look at the spec for this. I'll take another pass at the jet later on with fresh eyes. I'll also have to play with a gloss map and get some reflections going too. For now, I started on the bike itself. I took Xoliul's advice and wrapped a frame around the engine first. Mostly just… -
Re: Can anyone provide some advice for a newbie in creating replica IRL buildings?
Hey JordanN, I actually lost my USB drive that had the pictures for that model but I have a couple of screenshots. I am just now starting to learn how to UV Wrap models, baby steps... I guess more of what I am asking is how would you put textures from the building in the first pic to the second in steps? I am just now…
