Re: Crash environment WIP - UDK
I'm currently working on a similar setup right now, and I must say that its difficult to judge right now. I would say thats its kinda hard to see your main focus point even if we know that your jet crashed into the building. I would say that later on, your lighting will make it way better. At the moment, its a dull… -
Re: How do you get better at drawing?
It really is the answer though. The final result wont come from a book, but your hands. Books only serve as a reference or as guidelines but they don't do drawings for you. If you want to study anatomy, anatomy is right in front of you. Your hand doesn't change shape, so draw that. If it doesn't come out right the first… -
Re: Sketchbook: Introvertices
I think I preferred the lighting you had in your original beauty shot setup. The stronger secondary lightsource coming from the right/top right in the latest one I think makes it lose a bit of that "deep sea" feeling the original had. Though it's also possible that the inclusion of some warmer colors (since she's actually… -
Re: WIP Female anatomy basemesh (First post!)
Thanks, Eric! You're right about the lumpiness, to be honest I started her as an anatomy study but I soon wanted to segue into a character to add to my portfolio. I might smooth out details or use a lower subdivision for a basemesh. Also, as an anatomy study, I spent more time on the body than the head, so you're… -
Re: Lots! Many! Paid, Permanent Urgent Games Jobs: Melbourne Australia
Hi, Well you're right and you're wrong. I am a recruiter (but a lovable one), so you're definitely right there, but the jobs I put up last night are all for 1 studio. I got the requirement list in last thing last night. I actually have 32 more jobs from 2 other studios that came in since last Thursday and feel a bit like… -
Re: portfolio critics!
My guess is that models will improve with time but to show them in their best possible light you either have to calibrate your monitor or learn few basic lighting set ups like -> 3 point lighting Rembrandt lighting or HDR as lighting Reason been right now your models are either overblown in some ambient haze or relative… -
Lego Fight scene
Hey you lovely lot. First post on this site so I'm kinda nervous but I digress. As a side project from uni work, I am working on a little turntable fight scene between some Lego figures in 3D. Not had a lot of spare time at the moment but here are some samples of what I've got so far. Here is the first figure, based off… -
Re: [UE4 Environment] Wood hut interior
Yo, just wanted to let you know that you on are the right track! This is looking fantastic, i would just say in regards to the previous comment try playing with lighting and the position of the lights in the scene. just try to match them up with the windows and make sure you don't have a global light casting shadows from… -
Re: Emission map.. or glow...
Self Illum won't cast light in any rendering engine that doesn't bounce light, so scanline alone doesn't work. But scanline set to use an advanced rendering plug-in like Radiosity or Light Tracer will work. Mental Ray with Final Gather I think will bounce light and glow materials will cast light on adjacent surfaces. If… -
Re: Toying around with normal map approaches
Do you mean image based lighting when you say photometric? Because this is pretty common these days, in games. And really, weather you're using a point light, or convoluted(is that the right word, lol?) lighting from a cube map, the problems we're talking about here are artifacts from smoothing errors, so really if your…
