Substance painter still has a lot of important limitations , same as in very beginning. To list a few: 1. you can't select a layer and scale /move it 2. brushes are pretty primitive and reveal its robotic artificial nature instantly. Not that Photoshop's ones are much better but still it's a long way to go till Corel…
Well, my take is it's just a tough market right now. The current political shit-show in the U.S. has created a lot of uncertainty for business leaders, so they have pulled back on spending, and laid off staff (which are often the largest monthly expense for a business). There are still positions being hired, just a lot…
Does anyone found anything truly new and useful there ? I see Splatter v2 allows dense details with tiny scale but still does same aliased depth combine and bad alpha for something like tiny twigs or grass blades. I am still using old fx-map nodes instead . More controllable and easier to modify. Anything other new and…

"It's better to dig in and learn the process yourself, hard-surface modeling is actually very achievable." SECONDED! @Collins you're only cheating yourself and the artists, specifically their work having been flogged off as your own.
Many thanks for the pointers @Eric Chadwick Unfortunately, I don't understand what you're asking exactly, so here is the normal map: By 'run a histogram on the original texture', do you mean like so? I must admit, I didn't pay too much mind in what color space the texture itself was being previewed in, as long the shading…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WE3_pqw-KNU&t=2s Hi everyone, I’ve been working on Hairflow, a specialized 2D tool designed to bridge the gap between sculpting high-fidelity hair and the tedious process of creating hair card textures for real-time engines. The philosophy is simple: Groom in 2D on a flat canvas, and bake…
I found this article pretty informative, about how to spot AI fakes, and whether it's ultimately a losing battle (or not!). https://www.science.org/content/article/deepfakes-are-everywhere-godfather-digital-forensics-fighting-back One thing I found a little bit annoying was their reliance on perspective lines to help…

Hello everyone, I’d like to share my first independent project: a detailed 3D model of the Grand 850 rigid-inflatable boat (RIB). Since I am still a beginner in 3D modeling, this was a massive learning experience for me. My primary objective for this project was to achieve accurate hard-surface geometry representation,…
