You have a ton of wasted polys in this thing. The cloth wraps (i'm guessing thats what it is) could have been textured in, or at the very most normal mapped. The roundness of the handle itself and the bit at the end could use for a few less sides on them. Use your saved polys to curve your blade a bit more, and add a sharp…
nice! The hoops need something to show how it's all held together (gotta love rivets). There's quite a few good sites on barrel making which might help: http://www.rootsweb.com/~flbbm/heritage/cooper/barrelmaking.htm. Keep working on the pewter, the lions head looks like a different material at the moment. I do like the…
Thanks, yeah i like it too, took awhile to customize the masks to it (learning the settings i had to use) and the lighting to play nice with it. This "higher caliber stuff" takes a bit for me to wrap my noodle around, took a break to get some "fresh eyes", on her again to see what may be needed as far as touch ups go. If…
Okay, big update! I've been working really hard on learning to sculpt clothing and folds for the first time, and now I have all of her costume in place. It's obviously still missing a lot of detail work and her hands need detailing, too. I'm also trying to find a better way to have her goggles hang from her costume. And I…
Hi there! I'm answering to you here about the question you asked me about the wrappings on DeviantArt...why? because I'm to lazy to reopen the Da notes that I closed for mistake. XD The bandages you saw on my "Shina the Leopard" model are all done by hand, no special tecnique or things like that at all, just a sketch with…
Here is a hand painted shield I have been working on for the past few days. I'm trying to get it to high or professional market quality for sale. I don't really have any directions other than it is a hand painted shield, so not sure what it's scale is, a buckler or tower shield. Anyway, Here are some of the dev images of…
Hello all. The software I'm using is Maya 2016 and Photoshop CS6. So I'm new to hand painting my textures, and I've found it quite fun :) I had a question about UVs and hand painting. So, here is what I'm working with: Low poly, modular fence piece. Just keep duplicating them to have a fence where ever you want. It's a…
Hi guys, I started making this spear today and this is kind of what I have got going so far, I don't really have everything figured out yet, so what you can see design wise is what I have. I'm open to suggestions but what I'm thinking of doing is pretty much wrapping the handle in some cloth or leather and adding something…
Hey all! Sorry for the delayed update. I've been trying to wrap my head around this style of building and I feel it is starting to take form. I really need to start working on the foliage and terrain next as well as the roof (which looks like a ball buster). Props which need to be added: Towel / clothes hanging out of the…
Hello, I'm looking for some help with the 3d side of my project. The game is a cozy game about exploring nature, similar to games like Animal Crossing (although a bit more focused on nature) with owning a house and interacting with npcs and collecting items. Very chill and relaxing vibe. The project is still in the…
