Re: Larch Tree Charlie Brown?
@steppenwolf I did neglect to refer to my reference after building the branches. < So great point there! :D Here's some of the reference I was looking at. Though, looking at these again, the one i need to make is less wild growing, and more kept like in a town. @Steppenwolf Also, if I bake the mesh and texture detail, i'll… -
Re: Lightwave10 or Modo ?
Heh smoothing groups are just like Max but without the GUI... which makes them a bit harder to work with. You just assign faces an "id" and any faces that have the same "id" have a smooth transition between them. Faces can have multiple "id"s for more complex scenarios. Maya smoothing via hard/soft edges would be a bit… -
Re: JordanN's PS1 Art Thread: When 500 triangles was high res.
It's not a speed issue. You can see I posted the first prototype Truck scene on Feb 17, two days after I showed the rotating sphere. Since it's a project I do in my free time, I just keep making changes to a scene until I'm ok with it. In regards to mobile, I thought about it but ultimately, if I had to do a low poly… -
Re: Material Study
Oh man, thanks for the critique! I didn't get any feedback from 10k, level up, or brushforge so I was getting worried that I was really off-base haha. Your crit makes me feel hella guilty, lol. I originally intended to do a lot more, with some lighting, cleaning up the edges and adding more detail, and breaking the circle… -
Re: [PANIC] Having trouble baking multiple UV islands
Yes, you still have to bake inside the 0-1 UV island. Going outside the UV only repeats the texture. This is a common technique when working with environments. Say you want a lava landscape, you make a texture that loops seamlessly. So, the texture would look like this: And "outside the 0-1 UV island" it would keep on… -
Re: Blender - Creating painterly clouds
It's going to be a background loop and just like you said I intend to animate it with distorting the material. Your examples are really impressive though, I'll definitely try and recreate some of your methods. Right now I'm like how it move but I still need to add more details and improve it generally. This is a darker… -
Re: Hair Sculpting Methods for Dota 2 Characters
I have a rough idea, since I did those 2 sculpts for this tutorial back to back. What it comes down to is the more detail you want out of the curvetubes the longer it takes. You can literally count the number of strokes to get to a usable sculpt base. Getting that "Neat" sculpt took maybe 5-10 mins. However detailing from… -
Re: Gaming/music headsets?
ugh, you like that headset? Me and friend of mine think those bastards are INSANELY uncomfortable...The first week I enjoyed it, but after that I noticed I started developing headaches after use, and that they were crushing my ears and putting pressure on my head. I ended up wearing it in several different ways that they… -
Re: Emerging Character Artist Portfolio Critique
I totally feel you! I have been there as well...and I can relate to that absolutely. One thing to make clear: I didn't suggest to delete everything! ;) That would have been really bad feedback actually...If somebody tells you to delete everything ever, don't listen! Because he is an a**hole haha A portfolio is there to… -
Re: DT-45: Scifi Military Police Sidearm
@Zi0 Thanks for the critique! I agree. I've tried to add some color variation to the base plastic with these revised textures. I also added a little wear in the form of scratches in the plastic and roughness variation, as well as some dirt on the white grip areas. @IgPerish Thank you for the extensive critique! The…
