Re: Anatomy, and getting good with sculpting eyes
No prob :) The thing that is lately helping me a lot when doing faces - after roughly an hour get a screengrab from Zbrush using the snapshot function placing it next to the refs and take a break for a couple of minutes. Then come back and mark in PS all things I notice on the screenshot. It makes a huge difference looking… -
Re: Prop Workflow
One of the most important aspects of dutifully working to a concept is a proper blockout. This will save a lot of time. It allows you to workout any inevitable '2d to 3d' issues that arise. It allows for rapid ideation, see what works, correct scale, animated components are functional, appraise the forms, and most… -
Re: Answered: Quixel Suite 2 a big step backwards for me.
This is what I see when I load your mesh, add a metal Smart Material, and use post-processing: The object-space, curvature, and gradient maps were baked by 3DO. The issue appears to be localized to your computer. Are your drivers up-to-date? Have you attempted a clean install of both Photoshop and Quixel SUITE? We don't… -
Re: Avatar
Saw it and it was good. My previous criticisms about the visuals are null and void. I did believe they were aliens, and with the crisp 3D visuals their clothes(you could see the threads that the clothes were made of), hair, skin looked so good I could almost feel them. I still dont like some of the designs, the mechs were… -
Re: Character - Prototype 01

Re: UDK Or CryEngine 3?
I love the realtime viewports of Cryengine, but UDK has a more solid editor (imo) because its been there from the beginning and just improved with version to version. Also, there is LOADS of tutorials for UDK, making it easier to start with. I think Cryengine has (going to have) the best destruction functions, compared to… -
Re: Pirate character
You should have posted the concept for comparison, but I would still agree with Goeddy that it has some functionality issues. Regarding the modelling, the clothing folds need more work. Pay attention to how different fabrics deform as it shouldn't look like wax. After that, a simple way to generate the details is using… -
Re: Blender Zbrush Workflow / Normal Maps
Thank you for all of your help and advice! I really appreciate it and it has been very helpful. Sorry I didn't get back to you quicker. Here are my latest 3, I think they are decent? I must have been doing something wrong with the cage, I did try changing from 'global' to 'normal' but I do not think that it is referring to… -
Re: [3DS Max] UI lag when switching between sub selection modes and duplicates of objects
You can run these in the listender: * gc() Runs a garbage-collection routine * freescenebitmaps() Frees up the memory allocated to bitmaps * clearundobuffer() Clears the Undo/Redo buffer. Be very sure the scene is as you want it before you invoke this function Max tends to collect a lot of shit the longer it runs in a… -
Re: Maya to max and back again
You can transfer the skin weights in max before exporting back to maya. As long as they are roughly the same shape and size you can use skinwrap on the new mesh, target the old mesh and then convert to skin and export. In this case its based off of proximity not vert numbering so it doesn't matter so you can make edits to…
