Re: [CE3] Island of the Dead (my first environment)
well ive added a lot. -finished the maze layout -added a bunch of textures -added my first vegetation item no textures here are complete. none have specular and most dont have normal maps yet. i will eventually get rid of the trees and place modular ones in their place so i can easily animate them and add alpha planes. the… -
Re: Gaious demoreel Thread
Holy wasted space on the UV sheet. The model itself doesn't look too bad but it's hard to tell since you didn't post the wires. Anyways, you have quite a bit of wasted space on the UV sheet as I mentioned before. as well as an issue with texel density as a whole. The shirt is real tiny compared to everything else, the arm… -
Re: Guide for doing well making stock game assets?
That's a good idea - with one caveat: If you're new to the business and are creating assets for a highly styled package, make sure that you can maintain consistency in look and design from the first piece to the last. If that's doubtful - I'd be tempted to create the whole set at once. Maybe produce a few separate… -
Re: Sketchbook: dGreenberg
Pausing on the scorcher (it's not done yet!), I wanted to work on a more human type of character, so I found a fun medieval mercenary by the artist, Youngmin suh. Starting with the high poly first, I wanted to sculpting out as much of the character as possible in ZBrush (with more of the hard surface stuff modeled out in… -
Re: [Chivalry] - Mason Archer - Bull's eye set
Reply by zetheros · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Arms & Armor, Chivalry: Medieval WorkshopAre you doing this in modo? Sometimes I feel like my artistic level drops to sub-arctic levels while making something for the first time in modo. If you're up for it, it might be a good idea to do a concept in zbrush first. Modo just feels very constricting, and you end up fiddling with vertexes and polygon positions… -
Re: Maya 2014 finally gets a huge update to its modeling tools!
So I dont know how many guys study off from Autodesk student website, but they have all three programs there. Although; I am more interested in finding out about the student license, and what not. I mean this maya is going to last for a year if downloaded, or is it just free to use for students. Like softimage xsi is. It… -
Re: Hard Surface Modeling - Sculpt or don't sculpt
is it faster to sculpt it than to make simple shapes from primitives? probably not. besides, in production it's usually not the 3d artist's job to try major forms out. also, if you're making a very large and detailed hard surface item like a vehicle or gun (read: not character accessories), there is no point in blocking… -
Re: Maya Scripting: Storing Rigging Information in Notes
I see! I'll store it in a custom attribute, then. I appreciate the Python example, but I don't think the data I'm writing is enough to warrant writing it into its own file. Right now it's just a simple string containing the names of the parent objects and what type of constraint the space-switching system is bound to them… -
Re: Psilo the Museshroom Hermit [WIP]
The thing that stands out right now is the two toes, with the big toe being on the wrong side? You could get away with two toes, or maybe three, but with the biggest on the inside, right now it looks a little odd. Might also be worthwhile to play with the colours, separate the parts to different layers and slide the… -
Re: **Student** Feedback please
Dunno, but do make sure to read these articles. http://www.marmoset.co/toolbag/learn/pbr-theory http://www.marmoset.co/toolbag/learn/pbr-practice If you're making these assets for games, it may be beneficial to display these in an engine, too, to show that you know how to put together items in a game engine pipeline, and…
