Re: Looking for fur texture workflow ideas -- Possibilities with xgen and arnold
I used marmoset toolbag to bake vertex color to low poly. not sure about an xgen workflow, but basically i create geometry hair and then bake that onto the low poly model. So whether you are using a spline simulation for hair or w/e, the idea is to turn it into geometry with vertex color and then bake that. Problem is that… -
Re: 3ds Max/Zbrush: Proboolean + Dynamesh hardsurface workflow tutorial
I'm adding my recent learning in this thread to make sure it's kept alive. What I'm using: MOP Boolean Plugin in MODO 13 (Basically works like ProBoolean from the looks of it) ZBrush 2019 //My Issue My meshes can get heavy in Modo given their complexity, so on export from MODO to ZBrush, it used to take FOREVER to prep… -
Re: Zbrush is EATING MY MEMORY
Hi, my advice is this: Get two SSDs, in one you install the operating system and programs. In the other SSD, or PCIe, you install the program cache (quick saves and temporary files). 1.- /Users/Shared/ZBrushData2020/ZBrushQuickSavePath.TXT ---- There you change the address for the new folder in your SSD. This could be: /… -
Re: marmoset turntable?
I'm using Marmoset Toolbag 1.05 First set up your turntable by going to the "View" tab. Set Mesh turntable to somewhere around 30 so that you get a good frame rate capture. The slower the turn, the better. Pause the turntable and press reset mesh when you're satisfied. Go to the "Output" tab. Set your output location to… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Alex Wells, Prop and Environment Artist
Hey man, a couple things jumped out at me right off the bat. * I think there is too much negative space in the shots of your props. Over half of the screenshots are a plain gray background, and the shots aren't that big to begin with. * Posting some texture flats would benefit you, showing that you are efficient with your… -
Re: Working with Zbrush and Maya
Everyone has different workflows so how you use Maya and ZBrush is completely up to you. For example, organic stuff I either work from a simple base mesh that I create in Maya or from ZSpheres in ZBrush. Hard surface stuff I tend to do all in Maya but if I needed a small complex design on a panel or something I would pop… -
Re: [Chivalry] Agatha Archer - Court of The Lion Set
Reply by Hamakua · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Arms & Armor, Chivalry: Medieval WorkshopIt's just a general concept. The rear will be lightened up. Think of the lion's face being one thin piece of metal with perhaps a border for strength made out of brass. I've looked at a lot of helmets for archers as well as the ones in Medieval warfare and none that I can see have face plates, they also would hinder sight.… -
Re: I want a general portfolio crit
In addition to what Brian said, let us know what your expertise is right when we hit your first page. EDIT: I apparently missed it the first time around where it says 3d Generalist and Environment Artist, which is a bad sign. Make the bit at the top of the first page with your name and title BIG so people notice it. What… -
Re: cgTech1 Model Viewer Alpha (Image Heavy)
Nice job so far. I like how light weight and bare bones it is. Things I'd like to see: * A way to pivot the camera around a center point instead of the free roaming fps style navigation. It would be more intuitive for artists to be able to rotate around the model like in 3d authoring applications. I think keeping the fps… -
Re: Cyberpunk Girl
This is lookin really ace but I think you might be missin the last 10% to push this into phenomenal territory. Texture wise what you have feels way to new and fresh. I know the concept doesnt have her looking battle worn, but what you have now feels like she just got it off the shelf from the store. The boots (Especially…
