Re: Blood Elf Spell Breaker Final
@ ZacD-- I painted in my, would be, "AO"-- darker values in the same color family around areas that would potentially cast the soft AO shadows, rather than bake the starting texture manually. The last image of the figure is purely flat viewport shade, where as the top image was painted on a little more for those areas, and… -
Re: Barbed Wire Baseball Bat
Sorry I think the plastic comment should have been directed at the gloss and not the specular. But if I have to be honest I'm not sure what the difference between the two are, I'll do some research on them. But to explain what I meant I googled some reference: I realize it's a different kind of bat, but it's the same sort… -
Re: Sculptris 1.0 released!
I never really use brush masks in sculpt mode; they don't go on very cleanly unless you already have super dense geometry. It's not worth it to use them, IMO, unless it's just a simple circular brush mask - like a dot or conical fade, or a rake type texture. But even then, the spacing can be really noticable. Standard draw… -
Re: 3D modelling software for the terminally poor
seriously if you are thinking of doing 3d for profit. You shall consider purchasing 3d software like 3ds max, maya or xsi. I mean yeah it might be moreless 2k$ for one of those, but you need to see this as an investment ( as a work tool, you can maybe even put it in your taxes) if you plan doing this professionally. I do… -
Re: [UE4] Banjo Kazooie: Banjo's House
You're doing great with this! I'm not quite 100% sold on the lighting yet though. While I appreciate the homeliness of the warm orange color of the light source, maybe you can tone it down or blend in some more natural or cool colored lights to either complement or contrast with it? It might be great if there was a spot or… -

Re: quite the fancy gentleman (stylized character)
Holy crap! Thanks for all the kind words guys! Really appreciate em. Also I'm glad you guys are enjoying the streams, and even learning some things despite my joking and antics :) @EiGHT - I used a regular biped in max to rig the arms, then moved lots of verts around, kinda messy but it works :D @texelion - I did sharpen,… -
Re: Warm up fun (deus ex 3 scene)
I was thinking the same thing vahl... I've forced myself to have more "soft" edges on the sides of pieces, but now that you mention it, I definatly strayed from that with this piece, I will go back and soften them up a bit (i just don't want to make it look blobby :( ) And as for following the concept, this was just a wip… -
Re: Sketchbook: Kapoff
Next one: This guy was made in the just for the sake of using blender and gimp. Since my school pipeline was 3dsMax/Zbrush/3DCoat/Photoshop, I was wondering is a Blender/Gimp combo would be usable as a substitute of the my usual pipeline. Ans it appears to be quite a powerful combo. Blender pack a serious (but quite… -
Re: Marmoset Toolbag 2 | Feedback & Suggestions
If you can provide a screenshot of the problem I may be able to help. Just as an example, this is what the high res shadows option does for me: High res shadows off: High res shadows on: Area lights can help as well, use the width parameter in the light properties to create a larger, more diffuse light source which…
