Re: Lil'Troopa
Interesting, I thought the character was a girl :p I think it's mostly the round soft face (which would either be a kid or a female) in combination with the big thighs and long legs. @Duncan: Good start so far! Again I love the style you're going with and really looking forward how it'll turn out. Subscribed :) One tiny… -
Re: Atlantis Guard WIP
I would suggest making the tail part twice as long as thrice as thick in parts.. I'd look more into the general form as well, right now (in my opinion) it suffers from too much blobbiness, too soft, not enough definition. Take a look at different fishies. They are covered in hard (looking) surfaces, sharp edges (gills,… -
Re: Fighterplane-thing
I'd say don't trying make it all one contiguous mesh - can make more work for yourself trying to line up or terminate loops - and especially with sub-d, try keep everything in quads if you can to keep smoothing even and the mesh clean. Check out the FAQ: How u model dem shapes? Hands-on mini-tuts for mechanical sub-d… -
Re: First Next Gen character
awwww yea gurrrl. Now shes looking hot, good job. I think the chin still needs some help, its very pronounced and masculine right now. try bringing the bottom of the chin up closer to the lips a tiny bit and scaling the sides of the chin outward to make the face rounder. When sculpting feminine features try and make things… -
Re: Blizzard inspired marine
Gotta agree with the crits against the camo texture. You had a great "asian flare" going, fitting for starcraft, and now all i can think of is western military considering the wars being fought right now and where you would use that camo. The dude's wide mouth is still buggin' me big time, would be easy to adjust. Just a… -
Re: WIP Gun: NewB Needs Help!
Hello! Good job, Brad. This is Jon from UAT. I've gotta say you've made a lot of improvements to your modeling and I'm noticing significant improvement in your texturing skills as well. For this project, I think you could add a couple more soft highlights to the edges of geometry in the FPS view that appear dark. For… -
Re: sharethread - what do you preview normalmaps with
I've been using 2 apps lately. ShaderFX from Lumonix is probably my main one. It allows you to build your own shaders with a simple node-based editor. I can quickly make a shader to preview my base, normal and spec map. personal example: ShaderFX xNormal is what I use for generating most of my maps, because of it's speed… -
Re: Normal Map problem that has been bothering me for ages!
Well, that's the compromise. It either looks good from the side or from the top, not both at once. As I said, you can improve the top-down look by adding more sides to your cylinder, but you have to use your judgement as to how important/large the item will be on screen. About the all-soft normals : Maya is pretty good at… -
Re: UDK - Waterfall in Forrest
As far as the cliff sculpt goes, the rock forms are looking a bit too soft and rounded. The sculpt itself feels more cartoony right now, while the diffuse and alpha treatments suggest you want to go for a more realistic feel. You may also want to revisit the crevices between the rocks, some of them have weird pinching… -
Re: 3ds Max 2010 Is Here...
What do you mean with normals not displaying correctly, EQ ? Doesn't that depend on the method you use for displaying them (I'm thinking you're talking about flipped green?). Anyway, I really, really like the new viewport display stuff. The AA and SSAO really are a huge leap forward again, and once I get acces to soft…
