Re: Catacomb
don't kill the spec of the blue, just lose the ambient. Artisticly, it's always better to work with nearly no ambient and use real lights to light most/everything. Ambient just washes out your scene.

Re: My guide good 3D artz and stuff
Actually this one is a REAL true thing. At work I am working with texture sizes that dont fit the 256, 515, 1024 structure at all. A few maps are not even a power of 2. There are varriying reasons for this, it really comes down to what its being used for and what is the best way to get the best preformance for less mem… -

WIP~Tanto Style Knife
I am doing a concept on a tanto style knife. I want some c&c on it. This is my first try at hand painting a knife so please tell me all my flaws. I feel the blade could be a bit more shiny but I know a lot of tactical knives like this are dull except the blade. I think it feels a bit like stone though. I went with a 550… -
Re: 3ds Max 2016
I jumped ship as well. I was a long time 3ds Max user, but since going back to school I picked up the education creative collection from modo which is like $150. This includes Modo Mari and Hiero player. Upgrading to to commercial licences will be $545 for the software. This seems to be the best way to get away from… -
Re: Monthly Noob Environment Challenge 1
Thanks guys! I was able to bring down the polycount by about 40% thanks to those tips :D I decided to stick with 4 instanced stones but much more decimated. I also decimated the dirt a bit, in the reference image you can see that there is coal and other stuff that stacks up and since I am not going to use normal maps I… -
Re: What would make you buy a 3D printer?
Yeah FDM has it's share of issues when it comes to quality. right now it may be the best when it comes to price per foot in terms of building bigger objects. Since a build plate is only so large it comes down to being able to break a design into smaller pieces and engineer them to fit together after the parts are printed.…
