Re: Portfolio Review- Prop Artist
Kind of ironic to go from medical 3d modeling to making weapons lol One thing I will say is I would consider having your medical portfolio not show up on your home page, recruiters will mainly want to see relevent art pieces to the job your applying for, the other stuff is cool too but probably not necessary to see when… -
Re: Efficient Use of Texture Sheets
Right. So the reference isn't for any one specific item. I understand the principles of efficient UV use, but the reference is more for providing a visual example to other people. Good packing is easy to find, but getting examples of reuse is what is tripping me up. People are happy to reuse textures in modular environment… -
Re: The realistic skin, muscle, and gore systems in the upcoming game "ILL" - How is it optimized?
The headshot looks to me like a canned sequence, though we'd have to see more examples to be sure. The head is swapped with a damaged head, with pre-rigged skull-flap, and gib particle fx. You can do quite a lot with mixing skinned rigs with blendshapes. Also could just be a bit of smoke and mirrors, early trailers are… -
Re: Material Studies?
you can try learning by rough and smooth surfaces (glossy). This is base for classify a lot of materials, but of course, there are few exceptions like rubber materials, that can be smoothness but not necessarily have to emit or reflect the light like some glossy materials, cuz rubber materials absorve too much the light.… -
Re: Edge Constrain in Modo?
I'm was not being dismissive(english is not my first language, and never knew "shenaningans" could have such a negative connotation, and for that I apologize), I'm well aware of the flexibility of the system, it's just that after conducting a few experiments last night I started to get the conclusion that what could be a… -
Re: next gen woes?
Ive been diving into high poly now for a while teaching myself to model at high quality and I admit I dislike it . Spend a shit load of time cutting in detail that most people won't care about in the end . Doom 3 is a great example once the woe factor wore off on the graphics there wasnt much to the game play and so will… -
Re: Race and Game Characters
"Now I think it's kind of rediculous you dont credit the "build your own character" games. I think every game should offer this option as a way to enhance immersion but you seem to see it as a less then worthy solution to a problem you s" You can have a elve or alien sometimes as a option in those same games I disregard.… -
Re: Gina (critique welcome)
A detour or not, depending on how you look at it. I was trying to understand eye refraction. After finding some examples, attempted to recreate the effect... and it sort of looked correct. There was just that one issue I spent a good deal of forever chasing down. The whole thing distorts depending on whether you look along… -
Re: Workflow question: generating height/normal before Substance
Sorta, bit it doesn't work well . I tried to go that hi pass way . blur a bit and treshold dark lines and then add white value to initially highpassed picture ( right in my example) to isolate cracks only and clean small dots noise but it kills a half of tiny crack lines too. then I tried to expand /bevel what left of… -
