The goal was to practice optimization. The original high poly model was 105,549 tris. The low poly was 16,625 tris. How did I do? The objective was to get the model under 20,000 tris. Also I am wondering if removing all the edges in the circles and leaving polygons with lots of vertices on the borders (basically having…
what types of ( more or less obscure ) activities do you engage in to generate ideas ? eg : drawing upside down drawing with your opposite hand drawing in the dark exercises like : http://weirdblog.wordpress.com/2007/03/01/creative-squiggle-exercise-stimulates-your-imagination/ and certain practices in books such as :…
Just gotta say I went a little bit commercial with all the flashy layout, sorry about that, I'm still old school at heart. I tried a few different techniques while working on the skin, so things look pretty messy to me, I'm not happy with the design and other elements.. but w/e. it was good practice. oh flatz:
Was working on a personal project of mine, nothing amazing, more or less just practicing with substance textures etc... WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, windows update restarts my PC. I lost my current project progress and face palmed myself with my keyboard. Just thought I'd get that one out there...screw you Microshit.
Hi peeps! Would love to hear your recommendations for video tuts that you found useful and informative. Any software will do, I'm looking more for practices and principles. Will adapt to the software I use myself :] There's heaps of content out there, trying to weed out the poor quality stuff to save some time :] Cheers!
Hey ! Really Quick Sculpt did for practice ! I like Goblins so it was an obligation for me to sculpt one of this creature ! Let me know what do you think about it Made and render in zbrush. Compositing in Photoshop. You can find more shot in my Portfolio. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/zwD3D Cheers
Hi everyone! Glad to see this contest is about a game I like :) I gonna start with a weapon that I would be happy to play with (I guess it can be fun : D): a grand mace in a ceremonial style. Reference board: "The earliest ceremonial maces were practical weapons intended to protect the king's person, borne by the…
Yes, im fully aware that its shitty looking, as i said, this is just my render practice, the goal was to achieve a render using Vray, thats why i added only the smart materials. Now i can focus more on adding additional details on every part.
most naive decimation algorithms like these work on the assumption that areas of high curvature (or user mark up) are important and try to maintain their shape.. so... in some sense you could say they're the same. in practice they aren't cos they're dealing with different data structures, different information about the…
Hey, this thread will be a Sketchbook for my art progression. I took a bit of a break from 3d, so I'm out of practice. I always used to get stuck on one project for months, making tiny adjustments - This year I'd like to jump back in and just have fun with it. (and maybe get better at the same time!) Any Advice/Comments…
