ahh I meant didnt have a ref for a beaten up binocular. I did my research for the individual materials. The brass looked bad cus i couldnt find a ref in which the brass is as a shat on as i wanted. Ashervisalis said: Im suprised it take that long for someone to mention the stiches. I realized that pretty late on the…
Hey InvertedVantage, thanks for the tips; I just wanted to check whether you were referring to the low-poly images or the images in my later post? The model in the later post is something I'm planning to use purely as a base for sculpting, so I didn't think that some of the heavier poly groupings would be a problem.…
Straight from Stefan Morrells hard surface tutorial on cg society. http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?t=373024 However this is a more breakdown for hard surface spec, but the theory applies the same. With your texture, and the results you are seeing. I would desaturate first, and then do a high pass to try and even…
@Skinner3D I'm already thinking about letting the vertical strap bend a little bit on compression in my final rig. I don't want it to stretch on traction though because that wouldn't make much sense from a structural point of view. If it could stretch that easely, in real life the sheath would be sliding all the way down…
I've been wondering something similar, though when it comes to photoshop you should have a good idea of your UV placement when you are unwrapping a model, If you lay out your UV's in a fairly logical order you should be able to place the details where you want them. I'd suggest start off with some simple primitives and…
For that pile of bricks I would create 3 or 4 unique bricks bake them to low poly then arrange the low poly. If you think about it there are 6 sides to every brick so technically speaking you now have 24 bricks to play with from any one angle. You could also create a tiling rough brick texture and use it as the inside of…
8gb is far too low for working on high spec game art. 1. get more ram, minimum 32gb. 2. get a dedicated ~50gb SSD for windows page file AND photoshop scratch disk and make sure to assign that scratch disk in photoshop preference instead of C drive. 3. use PSB format (PS with prompt you if you cross the limit so you will be…
I'm really bored doing the chrome so I'm taking a break. (Which is this btw) For those who want to see what I've done, here is some of it. It really tilts me how I structured the layers in this. *Slaps my past self* :D I remade the layers into one group and kept the colour yellow and orange separate but... well... not…
to go with this idea maybe also the option to create new radial menu's and put any function you want on them. and as far as share setups all we need is a spot to share them, since keys, streamline and radial menus can all be exported separately as xml data. also i got a feature request would be nice if there was some kinda…
Hey thanks, Im glad you like it. I'll go ahead and take a closer look at the scale. Your right though, I did take inspiration from the keltec shotgun! The magazine tubes are not magazine tubes at all though, they contain high tension springs which pop the weapon into melee mode when placed on safe and the release switch by…
