Re: Question about PBR
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the biggest learning curve for me was that there are two ways to do PBR. Just remember these key difference: Metalness: it controls how much something reflects. So the difference between a chrome ball and a rubber ball. Obviously a chrome ball is very mirror like, right? Roughness: It… -
Re: Marvel Rivals Character shader - Nuke + Arnold (maya)
Hello, unfortunately I can’t show the current project. I will probably create a new scene when I have some free time and show it instead, since I’m not able to share the current one. Video reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5fTnIBziXc The issue with my scene is that I can’t achieve the same sense of volume as the… -
Re: gesture smoothing ( organic modeling energy )
more examples: from original cube in the middle... A cube's gesture smoothing approximated on the right. Catmull/Clark SubD approximation on the left. one to one correspondance example ( the original vrts are coincidental with the gesture... continuity "travels through" the original geometry ): -
Re: The Best Approach to Character Art?
This post brought a tear to my eye! Thanks. I appreciate this insight. =) My questions already been answered, and at this point I'm just responding to people, really lol. I've decided on a strategy. I'll provide an example of the skill I want. Or examples -
Re: Floaters or Modeling better?
If you're going to be showing the wires of your highpoly source models in your portfolio, I think it would be a strength to have some examples of both - the attentive lead looking at it will probably perceive this as a positive example of your knowing more than one technique. -
Re: Ezialt, a wandering exorcist
Looking good so far, but for the folds i would look into some stylized examples and go into that direction. right now they are too blooby and wonky. give them some clear straight lines and directon. for example: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/PmGdJL -
Re: [WIP] - stylized character, could use some help to understand what to improve for future sculpts
So one thing that really stood out to me that hasn't been commented on are the UVs. They are totally fine if you need a quick auto solution, but will be an absolute pain to work on if you have to do any serious texture work. Ideally, it's best to orient UV shells so they are horizontal or vertical, and straighten some of… -
Re: How can I make powerlines?
I would suggest NOT using an alpha blended surface for these. The texture is going to be filtered with distance, and the lower MIPS will be very blurry. It's generally better to just use pure opaque geometry. Include enough cross-sections to reduce long thin triangles, which can cause performance issues with some GPUs.… -
Re: Why so blue?
Ok, so after poking around and doing some reading and thinking on the problem, I'm starting to think my initial guess was right - that this is an issue of gamma correction. This means two things: #1 - You artist types arent just smoking crack or anything :P In fact actually whoever originally picked up on the whole "use a… -
