Nice writeups @Thanez, although apologies think I'm derailing this topic a bit but yeah I've dabbled with Blender's rounded edge shader which indeed does bear looking into for future reference, if the OP should wish to do so at some point. Anyway briefly vanilla workflow is imo fairly adequate in terms of most hard surface…
Yes, wheels dont have flatness at the moment but in the end renders will be :) Currently, I worked at headlights because previous version was not perfect. Now, look better! I also add little details , for example shark fin on roof and fuel cap:
Maybe I need a new pair of spec's or my eyesight is getting shot with age :# otherwise I'm prepared to offer some benefit of doubt, for example their previous completed projects from blockout to UV - baking more or less was two weeks so at face value does appear there's continuity there...
Hey guys, It’s been a while since my last post, but I wanted to drop a quick sign of life. I’m still working on the project, even though my time and motivation have been a bit limited lately. Not a massive amount of progress, but I’ve replaced the rough blockout with some smoother shapes and am currently experimenting with…
This is really overkill for a game but I can't really suggest much (detached handle example) without knowing the type of game and how you wanted to use the mug but as it stands I'd argue it's even overkill for a movie prop If it's a hero object in a first person game (like a gun in call of duty) then you want higher poly…
It's not so different from what you described your "usual workflow".. model it step by step.. you might have look at this to study the topology: https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/free-193839-vairogs-v2-new-version-e3a9b187643c4bbb84c485b1dd2a53a3 ..IDK if this is already to "highpoly" for what you want/need. So for a more…
The almost funny things is (also in general): When using some "result" from some AI, which in fact is some masterpiece of software developement but that's another story .. then why does one think that "some artists" are able to fix the garbage by "some script" or do have to do some manual repairs. Isn't the problem that…
True if AI would have caused you to never ask the question in the first place. My angle is more about execution, though. Should I use a tool to implement a "design" (to aggrandize it) when I lack the skills to do so myself in a reasonable amount of time (or at all)? Granted the outcome will likely be poor, but if I shift…
Edit: Thank you very much to all of you that took the time to send me a message, I have read through them all! Some lovely portfolios! We have now found a candidate to move forward with so I will close this for now. Hi there! I'm currently on the lookout for talent to close out work on our tilesets. Your Job would be to…
