Re: vertex colors vs bitmap texture - cost/performance considerations?
re: vertex colors - you could use zbrush for that, yes. however, trying to alter colors or layering is a bit of a challenge in there IMO. but you can transfer the mesh with polypaint intact into other applications (e.g. i recall a script for max for doing that). personally i used a custom blender compile with a few extra… -
Re: Guidance on printing 3D miniatures and Freelance rate!
I started freelance sculpting for print a few months ago, it's pretty exciting but can get a little dull depending on the client. Typically, I charge $20/hour because I'm just starting out and will take a little longer than most, but I'll need to raise my rates a bit when I have more experience. I personally see $20/hour… -
Re: THIS JUST IN: MODO indie 901 has just been released!
I thought I'd chime in to clarify this topic a little based on personal experience. When working on Dota items I sometimes work by myself (design phase + final asset delivery) and sometimes with other artists (providing them a design). In this second scenario I end up having to review high poly sculpts for feedback, and I… -
Re: Cartoon charecter sculpting wip
It is great that you are sticking to this and that you keep pushing through more work. Id say that you should work on the basics, ignore polishing details and polypainting and such. Id say that the face 4 is the best presented one, as that one is showing the most of your sculpt. So post some polypaint free pictures and it… -
Re: Dhalsim ZBrush Bust Sketch
well to be honest I had similar issues with projection master, with smearing and odd fading of colours I was laying in. I was trying the method of using a 3D plane with a texture and soft edged alpha applied to lay in blocked out skin but it didn't really work, and distorted badly, The worst issue I had was the eye sockets… -
Re: Looping UV's over the borders
...hell i can't even get them to snap...midas well see if i can get any more traditional solutions for my problem...that and actually explain my problem. i typically polypaint my textures, and i rarely bake them and most people that do hand painted diffuse textures seem to be able to get away with cutting their uvs into… -
Re: Concepting in Zbrush
Thanks for the reply, This is actually an personal research assignment that I am doing at collage, after your last post I modified my brief slightly and had to get the OK from my teacher. This isn't purely about concepting, its about creating a final concept piece for marketing that will resemble the final product, without… -
Kira_The Carpenter
Hey guys here is a model sheet I made for a character I'm modeling this quarter. I'm working on the highpoly currently. The next step will be to retopo. afterward applying textures to the low poly from the polypaint and ideally I would like to add animation. Here is her backstory and a earlier concept. Kira was walking… -
WoW Fansculpt - Cho'Gall
The Blizzardfest challenge inspired me to tackle a project I've wanted to for a while now - grabbing a character or creature from World of Warcraft (which being 10+ years old and all has one or two models that are a leetle dated looking) and trying to make a zbrush sculpt and a later game-worthy model. I've been neglecting… -
Re: zbrush 5 ? when and what
I would love to see some UI updates but at the same time, a complete overhaul would mean we all kind of have to relearn it, haha. It would probably be for the best, though. I'm fine with it as is, but would like to see far better layer support (with folders, obviously). I'd also like to see polypaint layers be separate…
