Re: Charmed House (Halliwell Manor)
Hey Brent, Nice work with the scene, it's definitely coming along really well. There's a couple of critiques I'd like to put out for you that will hopefully improve the scene. - Chamfer the edges of the wall corners, there's a really sharp edge between a lot of them and it's kinda telling that it's still CG and you could… -
Re: suggestions for good grass planes?
That's what I've done in the past and it works pretty well. I guess you could try using Render to Texture but something tells me that'll be messy? Never really tried it that way before. It will probably pay off to render with some simple lights or close to 70% self illum, default viewport lighting will probably look wonky.… -
Portfolio improvement - Fatih Gurdal Character Artist

Full Metal Alchemist Environment
Hello Polycount once again! :poly009: My next environment piece is from the anime/manga Full Metal Alchemist, specifically the room from Episode 3 "Mother" (first anime series) where Ed and Al tried to transmute their mother back to life: Back in 2005 when I first decided I wanted to be a game artist, I went through an… -
Re: nDO2 normal map Red channel Confuuusion!
It looks like its sticking up but its illusion since it depends on colours. Thats why I made those arrows and drawings ;p At least thats how I understand normal maps. I think the illusion works because our eyes are used to top lighting. Since upper border is light green/blue and lower is purple the difference in lightness… -
Re: Potentially obvious issue with object space normals.
It's because you've rotated the mesh after baking. It's not a specific side of the mesh that is the problem, it's that you've baked absolute object (aka world) space normal directions into that map, and then rotated the mesh. What you're telling the shader is that left is right and right is left, which results in lighting… -
Re: [WIP] Sci-fi Interior
Seems like by using a sky light it uses the emissive map to emit static light. This is how it looks so far. It doesn't seem to improve that much... I'm still figuring out how to do proper lightning. Added a few effects and the blood. About the blood. It is a material applied to a duplicate of the mesh on top. I don't know… -
Re: [Final] Enlighten Contest "Serenity Now"- by Bryan Meadows
****Post Four**** Today I have been really focused on the fined tuned aspects of getting all the light settings just right as well as playing with post effects to get the right mood. I found this wonderful image online after search forever that gave me some insights and inspiration and motivation. The step are coming along… -
Re: [WIP - environment] - deus ex based scene
Hey, good start. When it comes to models, you've got a pretty good blockout. However, on the right you seem to have a wall make a curve for the ceiling, while it should be straight. This also effects the couch next to the wall; the backpiece of it is too thick, it should be way narrower. The blue table in far left corner… -
Re: open for critique
Hey! The modeling here looks really good to me, so great job! The details on the train engine are really solid. As far as critique goes: - The sky seems really low res. Find a higher resolution for this. Check out the clouds in the upper right corner for the most problematic area. - The lighting feels flat and pretty…
