Anatomy and likeness practices
Hello! I have been trying to improve my anatomy sculpting recently. I was not happy with my latest character projects anatomy and also got some heavy critique for it, so I decided it was time to try to improve. I am doing most of these with 3d scans as my references, I took many screenshots of the 3d scans and mostly I try… -
Best Way to Practice Anatomy & Portfolio Critique (3D)
Hi All, I'm trying to improve my art and am trying to focus on getting male/female anatomy down. All my learning has been self taught with tutorials and anatomy books but I'm trying to see how I can improve and speed up my learning. What are some suggestions and strategies you use/used for learning anatomy. I'm not seeing… -
Sculpting welding on big parts. What is best practice? [Blender]
Hello guys :) Let say we have 2 long metal beams and want to "connect" them and add some wilding details with sculpting. Pretty obvious - boolean union, dynamesh/remesh when sculpt. But the problem is what our actual weld sculpt will cover something like 1-5% of model surface, so we will waste tons of polygons on long… -
Environment Practice
Hey guys, I'm spending the summer trying to get as comfortable as I can with the hi to low poly way of environment modelling as well as modularity.

Best Practice/Method for Breaking up a scene Modularly...
I know it's been asked before, but we are finally making the call to not have an art team build an entire map based on a pre-set design. Instead we want to break the various pieces of the "city" down so we have more options customization wise as the game expands. My question is, beyond certain features, it gets very hard… -
Character clothing practices & Character LOD ?
So, I am searching for some threads about character clothing, such as modeling. I'd like to have several outfits and things for players to put on their character. I know that the textures can be swapped on the clothing models, but I'm talking about entirely different clothing that would need different shapes, and it's too… -
Jerry Can - Hard surface modeling practice and my first attempt at PBR texturing
I've been really interested in PBR workflow the industry is heading in and the studio I work at will probably have no need for such next-gen content creation, so I've been working on this little prop to ease myself into the process and learn some of the software involved in my spare time. Any comments and critiques are…
