Re: Sketchbook: Woody_294
Something I'm working on, along with my anatomy studies, I've been doing that Posemaniacs 30 seconds thing once a day or so (thanks DarkStar!!) and I used some ref photos from the characterdesigns for this (thanks Eoq!!) and hopefully she doesn't look dislocated! The original pic is a screenshot from Super Streetfighter 4.… -
Re: cheap ambient occlusion
Only problem with this is it will darken any wide bevels you have, which isn't exactly what you want. A faster way is to just copy the blue channel and do an Auto Levels on it, then gaussian blur it by about 0.5 or something. Less effort than doing the fade/multiply thing a few times. I also like the technique of using… -
Re: Sketchbook: illybang
didn't mean to sound rude, sorry :/ in gameart it's always a good rule to use only polygons that are needed (considering the system specs tho) so it doesn't matter what your polylimit is, always remove verts/edges/polygons that don't contribute to either shape, shading, uvsetup (splits for tiling etc) or deformation. In… -
Re: Sketchbook: William, Saviour of Mercia
There are a LOT of small-mid frequency shapes missing here. It's a good base, everything's in about the right place proportionally, but it's definitely not done. You've got these big bland rounded off shapes everywhere. Pay special attention to the eyes, the nose, the surfaces around the lips, the brows, the ears -- lay… -
Re: Sketchbook: Revel
Looks like you're off to a great start mate. I'd recommend not spending too much time with the high contrast style as you might get stuck in the routine of doing it. Probably more fully rendered things will help you with form a bit more :) But keep the value range you have going on now, a lot of people tend to forget about… -
Re: WIP Lady Pirate
[ QUOTE ] Kinda remind me of Alyx [/ QUOTE ] Thanks! I like Alyx. So far this is all painted without reference or texture overlays, which I feel is more satisfying. I agree with you about the hair. I plan on making it more stylized. Here I am now having trouble getting my alpha channels to display in XSI's viewport. I had… -
Re: Scanned data or hand painted...?
regarding the xgen scalp. i found it to be better to just use masks/ids for this and do the actual hair color roughness and normals in substance painter or photoshop using those masks. the baked down xgen always looked kinda shit. but the same hair baked down with random normal values softly blended into the texture looked… -
Re: Hatsya's jRPG-ish art dump
As somebody who studies animation to the point of having "favorite animators", I think that everyone responding by saying "avoid anime" "professionals don't do anime" are fundamentally misunderstanding what "anime" is. To me, anime is just the Japanese word for animation and doing "anime style" is the same thing as when… -

Re: Importance of grooming a 3d character if want to get into the industry?
grooming will become more and more important over the years. we are closing in on the VFX side of things here. just look at stuff like meta humans. the majority of haircuts in games are still haircards for realistic, or sculpted for stylized or something inbetween. but real grooms will come i am pretty sure about it. but i…
