You've got a great start to this project, I've got some ideas that might be worth trying out. The Cliffs: Couple things here. First, I've found that obj files handle well in scaling from low to high poly, I'm not sure about fbx models. It may be worth a shot to run some tests and see if the obj handles a little better.…
Hey thanks for all your help! Really think I'm getting somewhere now. I've found a couple of good lighting settings in speedtree and messed with the shader a bit. I would still like to steal the normals from a half sphere but that can't be done in speedtree. Basically speedtree pushes the normals out from the parent, in…
@radianceofOrge @Grimwolf @Bellsey Haha, there might have been some confusion. I'm not teaching college. This is elementary - high school after school stuff (And a lot of the decisions are made due to cost). Yea I don't know of any colleges teaching Blender right now. What I do see are people picking up Blender on their…
The skyscraper I've been working on is yet unfinished, but I used some of the finished pieces of it to construct another building, just to see how versatile they are. I think it's turning out decently, but I'm regretting that I chose to make an exterior environment. I have to have something as presentable as possible in…
Hey Paul, Just wanna start off by saying bravo on clearing such a massive workload in such a short amount of time... being an artist currently based in Hong Kong, I know a thing or two about building a batch load of assets against the clock... So mad respect for the effort you've grinded through. As for critique now, I'd…

Just posting this reply I made to another thread where you'd commented, You can have actually have this kind of work (pure sculpting/posing) in the miniatures for war games/board games, scale miniatures, and designer toy industry. While some artists simply power through the count spamming the detail, decimating and then…
First off, anyone who has been on this forum for more than 20 seconds know that if you are looking for candies and cream and sugar on top of your crits, head on over to 3dbuzz.com, because polycount aint it. Do you think your boss at a game studio is going to sit you in a corner office and ask you what you would like to…

I've been summoned! I highly recommend Clinton Crumpler's UE4 Modular Environments course at CGMA. 10 weeks, $1,000 USD. I just wrapped up my scene the other day and I don't think I could've done it to that quality without his course but there is no hand holding. He's a great teacher and you'll be working alongside others,…
