Do not keep the bumpy texture as an effect. It makes the character look lumpy and not clean. The bumpiness doesn't read as anything specific. "Pressed for time," is this a homework assignment like the self-portrait? Bend the elbows and wrists a bit, you're going to make rigging a little more complicated for fiuture tech…
Thanks for the interest! I think I will remove the render cam from inside Lecter's cell. That is by far the weakest and does not really fit alongside the others. I should have some new renders up soon, as I am still working on this when I get home from my day job at a post production studio. @Hostilis, yes textures are wip…
Absolutely do it, yeah. A respectfully done pregnant character would instantly have my attention, and be a nice departure from the work usually seen in character portfolios.
I'm going to go ahead and respectfully disagree with SuperFranky. Most 3D artist portfolios I have seen so far base their model on a previously existing concept, mainly because it's not the 3D artists job to design the characters. If he can make this concept art into 3D and make it look better than it does in the actual…
Did I ask you to create my schedule? No right? why are you being such a jurk. I have read the suggestions and advices and took them under my consideration (and I will follow them). If you have nothing better to say or do not understand what I ask, its better for you NOT to post in such threads (learned it from you havent…
If you really want to use the raw OpenGL render (Render -> "OpenGL Render Image" from the top menu), there's a trick way. Set the character material(s) to use either the Mask or Z Transparency modes, with the alpha set to something really close to zero, but not perfectly zero. This way when it draws on the viewport it…
Seems like it's all been said before, but this is absolutely amazing! One thing I really liked from the movie you're referencing is the thick, moving fog that's blanketing the landscapes. This shot illustrates what I like about it the most: I like the subtle fog sitting on top of the river in your scene, but perhaps adding…
Hi Ninsel, hope your survey goes well! Loggie24 - I respectfully disagree that you lose control, but I agree there are some things the 3D painting will improve greatly. I actually snuck a peak of it last week, it felt oh so right!
@LiamReynolds hey Liam, sorry if this is a silly question, how did you create the smear effects on the staff? it looks neat! currently working on a run cycle! apparently i suck at gifs.. it's coming out in slow-mo so here's a direct link: https://gfycat.com/RespectfulTightAmurstarfish
