Hey everyone! I just started a new series on stylized 3D character creation, and this is the first part – modeling the head of a cartoon boy using 3ds Max. 🔧 Software: 3ds Max + V-Ray 🎯 Focus: Topology, Stylized Form, Rig Readiness 📽️ I recorded the full process and published it on YouTube:👉 [Modeling a Cartoon Boy's Head…
just finished it not long ago. I'd say in the neighborhood of 4-6 hours for me, actually, but I'm a little slow. Definitely worth the money. as far as talking about the art... there are assets here and there that are dodgy, sure, but what Valve gets right that so many others just don't is keeping their attention focused on…
Hey folks, It's been AGES since I logged in to polycount - after getting into the industry my posting really dropped off, as I had access to so many professionals in the studio to help sort through all of my development woes. Alas, I've now gone indie and my pool of resources shriveled - and I humbly come to my roots for…

Hey folks, I'm up to my man-boobs in a VFX art test. It's software independent and I decided to use Unity, of which I have *a little* experience. That said, I need help!! :poly122: All I want to do is play an animation that I've created with 3DS Max in Unity. Literally, hit play and see the animation. Nothing fancy. So…

If anyone has more ideas, throw em in To use this, you'll need to grab AutoHotkey, its a hotkey scripting prog http://www.autohotkey.com/ here's…
I'm completely clueless when it comes to texturing pipeline, and unfortunately every tutorial I can find (Quixel or otherwise) is tech-specific (they explain the software, not the craft of UV'ing). I was hoping someone could at least help me put a word to some of these issues so that I can Google them further. My pipeline:…
Hello, I've been using and experimenting with UDK last few months, so this will probably be easy as cake for most of you. I have an elevator set up, controlled with kismet and little unreal script (custom sequence action). The problem is with matinee animations. I have 4 floors and 4 switches (one on every floor). I also…
Set the outputs of each material properly to what you need. Then pull in the graphs of those materials into the new "Trimsheet" graph. Your individual materials will come in as their own material nodes but will still hold the link to their graphs. Then you blend these graphs together using the method above. Your Explorer…
I think you don't have to blend your slope results with your leveled tiles afterwards to keep the areas between the tiles. Just check in the slope node the mode and change it from Blur to Min. That should make sure that it only cuts into your tiles. But of course you can do it like this as well :)
