Tell me if this sounds familiar? I can do everything alone. I don't need anyone. I am smart, hard working, and most of all, I have been hurt, so why do I need anyone? You're not alone there... been there myself many times. We are all in this life together, and none of us got where we are without help from someone. That is…
How many times I would not return to this topic and how many courses I would not watch about baking, this topic is simply too difficult for me to and/or these courses were not of the best quality. For a long time I have been looking at how clean baking with a simple topology I see in various professional artists and I also…

I could be wrong but I assume the roundness of the edges (the square-ish forming outer edges) encompassing each sphere that are rounded are not the…

I achieved the overlapping blades of grass effect using different shades of green in my „Lerp-Alpha-Texture“ (mine is white and green instead of green and white or black and white). :) I place flat square shaped models with a polycount of 4 and rotate them the way i need,…

Hey, my name's Gavin! I'm a self-taught artist who's been poking at 3D for several years, mostly making prop/environment art. Polycount's been a big help for me, and I felt I might as well join, post stuff and help other people if I can!
Game engines work with triangles not quads/polys and automatically convert a quad mesh when it's imported, explained properly in Chad's link above (again look at any games mesh like the one I shared), you generally want quads for subdiv modelling and I guess some editing tools work better (blenders loop cut CTRL + R only…
I am currently texturing a character and weapon to look like
Blizzard’s overwatch. I have never done hand painted textures before and am struggling
a bit. I am wondering if it reads as overwatch or if there is anything I can do
to push the textures? I include my WIPs and a reference sheet along with the
concept art I am…
