Re: How to approach baking clothes
"As it was a retop job, do the number of edges still need to be considered...?" Oh hell yeah. if you don't decide beforehand how many edges the cross section of each limb is supposed to have, you are guaranteed to end up with sloopy results imho. Heck, I could tell it was the case just be looking at that cuff screenshot,… -
Re: How come I never get any response to my work?
Yeah, Artstation... unless you're pro posting work from a project, or producing really great stuff that happens to get popular, you generally don't get comments-- and even when you do, they're shallow. It's just not a forum for that stuff and thats ok. If you want more attention in general, you'll need to post more and… -
Re: [FINISHED] [Environment] [UE4] First rate ship HMS Aurora
A small update on the modeling phase: I have started making the final models of the top deck. To start I want to make all the objects that are 'stuck' to the deck (so not cannons, buckets, lanterns, etc). It's a very fun phase, but a lot of work has to be done, so I split it in different sections: -Static pieces… -
Re: Knald - Master Thread
Here are some more suggestions: 1. Material ID map, ability to use the material color as the source. This is because one mesh can have multiple materials applied. Make sure it works well once sub-meshes are supported :-) 2. When a map is added and bake is pressed, don't bake all maps again. Only bake if there has been a… -
Re: [WIP] Tips for my female character
Turn off the wireframes so that it's easier to see the actual surface. Her brow ridge is rather harsh - it kind of looks like she's scowling. I'd soften that out a lot and add some more depth/form to her eye sockets overall. Her nose is very blocky. The outer corners of her lips are really sharp - this area you want the… -
Re: SKETCHBOOK - Arcturus
good start dude, you have some pretty awesome gun and sword designs and are off to a good start in modeling them a few tips for just showing off to make it easier for us to give you feedback: 1) for the wireframes dont have the verts selected and the dots in the middle of the faces, try to keep it cleaner more like this:… -
Re: Artifacts in baking NORMAL MAPS.
You were right - I didn't export the model to any game engine yet - just used 3ds max and Mudbox. I realise now that Max has issues with displaying normal maps in viewport. So I'm currently use Xoliul and 3point shaders. Goat Justice, yeah, Edit Normals wasn't the right choise... gsokol, I've triangulated it before baking.… -
Re: Joshs super fantastic improvement thread
Not too bad man! For your highpolies I would study what makes others work stand and and more interesting. Bevels, Chamfers, nice rolling flowing hard surfaces are sexy as hell. Your knife for example is very planar where as the concept had some nice round curves on the handle. The more you can change surface direction and… -
Re: Tyranid Fleshborer WIP - When bullets don't get the job done, fire beetles!
Dog this is a really cool concept! I love the idea of severing an arm off and modeling the arm/ gun. That's something I've never personally seen that could really help this stand out. That said, I would really consider breaking it up into separate pieces. As moosebish pointed out (cool name, btw), it helps with explosion… -
Re: Looking for critique on my portfolio (environment art)
Victorian Study: Your individual assets are looking pretty strong, but they aren't coming together as a compelling scene. First and foremost, work on the lighting and composition. Right now the focal point is the map, in the very corner of the frame, which isn't ideal. Make sure you have a clear hierarchy of lights, with…
