Re: Sketchbook: Ben Bolton
Yea, you're right, I was trying some new things (for me) in the last two w/ regard to all the hatching and probably overemphasized it. More work on the initial lighting first will help I think New one from today I think I should do some city studies so I can paint them a little less ethereally. I also meant to do some ship… -
Re: Anyone here work in a games studio that uses Substance Painter? Have a shelf setup question.
Thanks. Part of what confuses me is that we initially started using substance designer only and making tiling textures. So going forward, we're going to have to move all existing tiling textures made in substance designer that we previously had in a folder called 'shared' (within the specific project) into the material… -
Re: [UE4] Physically Based 3D Art: 2016
While the lighting (and heck, the scene itself) is very realistic, all my props originate from drawings I do, where the goal is to create something very different and stylzed. So while it may be hard to see now, I plan on making more scenes that take on these ideas (for example, here are some initial drawings I did for… -
Re: Modular Cathedral ceiling
I did a ceiling similar to this one and the technique I went with was just to draw lines. If your a max user you can draw a line and just turn render in viewport on, if you want to get more into it than that. As I did, I made the shapes in a straight line then used a path constraint so they had to follow that first initial… -
Re: Real time hair tutorial
Why is there music in the tutorial? I have my own music; this just muddies the spoken audio which I personally have to focus a little more to understand clearly. I get that it's classical music, but still, it's unnecessary and distracting. The lack of breakup in the tutorial video is not good to me. It makes zeroing in on… -
Re: Umbra - Indie ARPG Hack&Slash
I agree with Synce, co-op multiplayer is a huge feature to build & need to be taken account from the very beginning of a project, not something you can slip in in between. It's something that will influence every level of your game: network programming, UI, gameplay rules, assets management and so on. Personaly, I would be… -
Re: Chromatic Abberation - Yay or nay?
as said befor its a nice effect and makes an image feell much more real if used very subtly....BUT it costs and if it costs people want to see its worth it... so it gets turned up... i think next gen alot of these effects will come into their own and make a very natural feeling images because we will be able to afford to… -
Re: Character Art Improvement
You need to not pop back and forth between high and low so early on. Do so once you have your bigger body forms down, but don't subdivide in your initial early stages. It just tempts you to focus on tiny details when it's not going to matter if your low-res is meh. It's good to hear you're starting sort of over again, but… -
Re: Looking For Some Advice (Game Industry, Art Jobs)
Just gonna throw in my initial thoughts about your portfolio. just looking at the thumbs it looked very beginnerish, and then I noticed it were props made for actual games, I think what made me think your stuff looked bad when it actually wasn't was the way you have presented your work, everything looks very flat almost… -
Re: Business Card Issues....
too much focus on graphic design and less focus on your skills as an environment artist. Make a prop or carve your initials into a really nice stone texture, we've got a whole thread on rocks! I don't have a business card but this is something I'd use on my own: It's simplistic but also shows that "hand painted" is my…
