Re: Need Help Merging Theses Two Shapes
Try it out and see for yourself. Some people say n-gons are no-no, other people say they are your friend. How will you decide? Test bake means that, if you have a concern about how your details are going to bake with a certain topology and/or UV layout, you just go ahead and do a bake to see how it's gonna turn out. A lot… -
Re: What can you do with 3498 tris?
d1ver, That does help a bit, but where i'm lost is slightly different. When you layout an object to use a repeatable texture you could do it a couple of ways. Keep the object's uv's within the 0-1 space and then have the texture be repeated in the shader node. Or you have the uv's extand past the 0-1 space to achieve the… -
Re: Portfolio Review
Nice website layout, my main concern would be your models, in particular your normal maps. Many of your models appear to have very sharp edges and are reading like low poly models. What you want to do is create the illusion of rounder edges on your low polys. To do thast you will have to revisit your highpoly models and… -
Re: Vella Art
Portrait sketches I did a bit before I started posting here but I thought they'd be nice to put up and get feedback on. :) Also I did some web-page design just to try it as well as give a visual to some feedback the site owners received. It's no perfect and mostly placeholder, but I had a ton of fun and would love to do… -
Re: How to go about texturing these two assets stuck in a jam on understanding certain things
So basically I'm using it to use tiling textures in this instance for these tents ideally it makes sense to use one texture sheet for 3 assetts so yes It's a bit of a work around lol you could say so so far what I've done is go into substance with a piece of the geo on this example the tent roof saved it as a smart… -

I will still have time here and there to update though. Im still working towards being a professional character artist but it will take a while. Doesn't hurt to have xp in the… -
Re: Best Color Picker for Toolbag?
I like Unity's color picker a lot. I like picking from the large rectangle, and I use the RGB/HSV switch quite a bit... HSV to adjust color values, RGB to do fine tweaking. The eye dropper is very handy too. I used to love using CoolPicker in 3ds Max. Especially the Tri layout. The circle is a nice hue selector because… -
Re: Zbrush VS Xnormal for Baking... Advice
xnormal hands down imo As for floating geometry, it might depend on how you define the word. ZBrush will basically bake what you see on the highest subdivision level of a subtool down to the bottom level of that same subtool. It can't bake between completely different meshes. If you have different polygon islands; the… -
Re: Hopefully BORDERLANDS stuff
hamzaa: thanks for your input! Yep, you are right about the wall, it still needs some grunging, which I will add. Totally right about the wire too, need to make it more interesting. Here is a quick update. I am working on the enviroment layout, blocking and modeling all the things. After christmas I will put it in UDK… -
Re: Looking for a career change...maybe...
Well that just shitted on my career choice. On career changing; As for teaching, you need any degree to go into a teaching school, its about three years long and you'll be required to do alot of time in placements. You'll most likely be fast tracked with your skill level so i'm not sure if you'll need to take an extra year…
