Re: Help people with normal map baking methods?
Thanks for the examples!! Right, 24 bits per pixel (bpp) is the same as 8 bits per channel (bpc). It's confusing since some apps don't specify when it's per-channel vs. per-pixel. * 8 bits can mean either 8 bits per channel (3 channels = 16.7 million colors, JPG for example), or 8 bits per pixel (1 channel = only 256… -

Re: ZBrush - Hypothetical ultimate feature list
mmm, well I've had lights breaking when trying to use the mats customize utility to setup a scene once or twice, if that could never happen that would be great, it used to also get "lost" behind that preview sphere (you could click) to put the light behind the object, which kind sucked the 1st few times. Forget why i had… -
Re: KT-s747 (ZBrush Pistol)
i think the more important thing isn't so much "softer" edges but "wider" edges. if you look at the 3 point models for brink you'll see that while the edges are very thick and beefy you'll also see that the shapes still read as being tough, mechanical objects. it's a really common misconception that softer edges must =… -
Re: I need a few answers from a pro concept artist
a pretty interesting topic. i find _Shimmer's post interesting because while he reasons that anthropomorphizing a monster isn't necessary to it being threatening(i agree), both of his examples show that it's difficult to immediately think of a monster that isn't anthropomorphic because film has been littered with them,… -
Re: TurboSmooth Pro released
I've created an example image illustrating the issue with crease geo, I don't like the look the creased geometry gives, it looks janky like you have taken a low poly cube and smoothed the normals then moved some verts around. Technically I could up the sub d level of my creased cube 10plus times to create the example you… -
Re: [WIP] Ghibli Kiki's delivery service, inspired enviroment UH Main project
@Wardana Frist of all great progress! You did some solid work there. I think you are onto something with posting the version without ivy. It looks better lack of noise on it creates a focal point that your eye can be drawn to. We are always drawn to contrasts. Not just in light but also in frequency of detail. So you also… -
Re: AI Usage in Indie Games
I'd say it's not worth it to use LLM's for the vast majority of current use cases across *all* of the possible uses of AI. The main reason boils down to it being a short term "gain" for long term loss. When you use gen ai you are outsourcing thinking to it (for example you use it to generate concept art, the questions of… -
Re: Noobie Mistakes
I think once I finish some new work I am gonna re make my entire site. I thought I had kept it simple but it is REALLY easy to over complicate fast. I studied many types of site since I created my current abomination and it seems to me that the best sites are simple and I mean REALLY simple. Take these as an example… -
Re: portfolio: s kritskiy
Regarding the navigation: What you have now is fairly functional but incredibly boring. For example, the text "Misc" doesn't interest me at all, yet it contains awesome art. Why not go with a layout that uses labeled images for categories, so I will already have an idea of what "misc" contains? I've also heard that the…
