Re: Walther P38
alright. awesome spotting that. most of my references do not have that lip but the one im using to model off of (accompanied with other angles) does have that, and i thought it was an interesting feature since it is kind of rare among these guns i guess. but now taking a second look at it, it could definitely use some… -
Re: Sketchbook: DashXero
Thanks, lucashug and blackdragonstory! It's been a minute since I've sculpted anything outside of work... Long story short, I noticed that a lot of the women I sculpt aren't very soft. So I attempted to improve upon that. Some may recognize the character from the GWIT busts I posted earlier on... Why the hell am I… -
Re: WIP Jagdpanther model
Ok, cool. The light setup is pretty basic. It is as follows: -One Skylight in scene, default settings -Light tracer turned on, default settings -One Direct light in scene, moved for each render to better match each camera angle. 0.25 magnitude, everything else default settings. -Scene material is standard 3DS Max grey… -
Re: Normal map woes - how the hell do I fix these normals
Break them up by UV groups. Basically, anything that looks like it has a steep angle, make it have it's own 'strip' in the UV's, broken from everything else. Then, make that strip have it's own smoothing/hardness/softness group, and bake it from there. BTW, I have no idea what Tangents Modo uses, so I have no idea if what… -
Re: Starcraft wow and much much more!!>
as with any artist, artwork will evolve and change over time. we learn by doing. the more we do, the more we learn :) so far, you are doing good :) to punch out the dimension of an image, you will need to push your values more. what I mean by that is to push out the brightness on the highlights... (both soft and hard).… -
Re: FKA Twigs: A likeness study
The lip area looks a lot better now. The brows and the back of the head are a little bit odd at a base level, though. I think the angle of the ridge of the nose from the side is a little bit too vertical, and the brow maybe a bit too high/sharp instead of a soft curve. Eyes are still a bit too far apart, they should be one… -
Re: How to deal with seams in the middle of a sword
I'd make a 4096/2048 or 2048x1024 texture map.You may have to scale the uvs to fit on 1 UV space for them to work in engine or with xnormal, but that's hardly a problem, just resize the map in photoshop. edit: That's what I did when modding for skyrim with decent results. Unless I have a sharp angle I leave soft edges for… -
Re: Critique/Help with lighting in my Unity level
@PolyBrother I see I see. The lack of any normal maps plays a part as well. I did have a normal map on my old grass texture but I changed it dramatically. It's supposed to be day but I keep wanting to make it dark and add subtle light. I'll play around more with shadows from the directional lights. Somehow I need things to… -
Re: ArenaNet Art Test Female
The face is a good start.. it does look a bit too masculine and severe though. Too many harsh lines.. not enough soft curves. Just look at that profile view of olivia wilde. Look at the slope of the cheeks and the subtle curves around the mouth and chin. The armor is looking really goopy. I would suggest retopologizing it… -
Re: Zbrush Dynamesh Master too low polycount
Dynamesh relies on the scale of an object. If you are modelling with something imported into ZB from soft like Max, the model will be 100 times the scale it would be in ZB. You can try the dynamesh master under the plugins menu That will give you a model of around 10 mil polys. You could also hit the unify button in the…
