Re: Hand-painted Wells
Hi Halasi, I really appreciate your critique. I am going to try tiling in this project - it was my plan from the beginning.

Re: sigh... crysis...
[ QUOTE ] lol... well i wouldn't say its good or bad, it certainly works well for them. but it just goes to show that there are many different ways of doing things and its not all about normal maps.

Re: What is the sense of use 3D and convert to 2D for textures?
Somehow that's a funny question, but i guess uv are not that intuitive. Well we need a support for storing the color data, right ? Something like a pixel grid ! What about a 3d grid of pixels ?

Necessary budget for building a PC to become a 3D Game Character Artist
