In the last few days Wacom (they make the pen for the Surface Pro) released a driver update to add full preasure sensitivity to the Surface Pro. Combine this with the Surface Pro's ability to run Windows applications things suddenly become more interesting... Surface Pro WinTab driver Review…
Kinda both, I want to do this project because my portfolio lacks hard surface stuff. So, I want to complete a hard surface project that shows my competence in modeling hard-surface objects to any potential employers. Also, it's my friends Glock that I'm modeling, so, yeah.
I would use noise to help distinguish between the different materials and surfaces. As it is now you have it spread across everything pretty evenly. It would be much more readable if you varied the noise/amount from surface to surface. Also, some of your hard surfaces are pretty soft and lumpy. There should be a distinct…
Hello, Thank for taking a look. I created this in zbrush and it has a lot of lumps. I'm wondering if there is a better program to surface it in to create some better surface continuity? Maybe Rhino? or fusion 360? or do I need to get into alias? Or is there a better way in zbrush itself? Please help!
Yup, the engine can either: a) slap a cube map over the surface with no bump interaction. 2) slap a cube map over the surface with bump map interacion. d) slap a cube map over the surface with bump map interaction and use a greyscaled mask. The specular stage also allows us to control power/scale of the highlight per…
So I understand that specular highlights are really just a reflection of a light source but in reality, can a surface be so glossy that it makes the specular highlight tighter and smaller than the actual reflection? Or are the glossiest surfaces really just directly reflecting everything around them? like is say, a mirror…
Hi. I would like to duplicate objects over a curved surface, like bolts etc. At the moment i use make live in maya, but then i need to tweak the position seperatly to get the bolts to point out from the mesh. Do you know if there is a script or technique to simply duplicate an object on a surface and the object will get…
Cheers HP, with regards to that building you posted, your basically using more sub-materials so that this allows you to tile the textures better? Also if you could elaborate on the surface types? Does the surface type get generated from the surface type of the proxy or the actual visible materials surface type? I.e. i need…
