Re: Art Periods/History
I find that art is also a great tool to understand how the world works. Drawing or modelling something accurately involves representing it's function - and you always have to research to find out what that function is. Form follows function is an educational tool on top of everything else. Combining aspects of modern… -
Futuristic Hunter
Good morning, Polycount... and this is my first post in a long time... I would like to share a model that I have been working on for quite some time, learning the new tools of Zbrush, mainly panel loops and the topology brush. The inspiration for the armour design was from playing Mass Effect and Crysis, and I really… -
Breaking up a large mesh in Zbrush
Any tips on breaking up large meshes in Zbrush? Previously I'd have imported a mesh as subtools for garments, head, armour etc, but my domwar sculpt is one large organic blob sitting at around 3million polygons. Since the texture sizes are 2048 I might as well eventually subdivide it again to about 12 million - but that's… -
3ds Max: Bipeds and multipart characters
Hi, I have a character that is made up of more than 1 object (for example; hair, eyeballs, tongue, teeth, armour, shield, shoulder pads, etc). I know how to rig a biped to a simple, single-mesh character no problem but I'm not quite sure about the above situation. I figured at least for the shield, I can add it as a prop… -
Re: (FINISHED)🍌 Banana Warrior (Hand painted PBR)
That character looks really like fun project =) =) But I think you can easily delete those extra geometry for his face because this will be such a small details and you can bake it down into your textures. In the end and also you will have a cleaner and smoother edgeflow for the banana head itself. Further more I have a… -
Re: Zoja Dota 2 Thread (new in modeling)
I quite like kings edge, but I think I would change the spine to the handle (since spines go down from the head, not up) and have something else running up the middle, possibly based on his black/yellow armour. I think I would also consider changing the size of the blade since its a bit small compared to the handle and… -
Re: Unreal map and 3d character
Firstly, I think you need to chamfer the edges of the character armour Tom. It is more like an hard edge at the moment and it needs to change to be more organic. The level is O.K, I would try add in some A.I using a NavMesh for them to move around the map. Also, sort out the shooting, as, when I looked at it last is was… -
Re: warhammer fan art base Rinehart Appiah Concept Artist
Hey man, this is a great start! Your material definitions could use a bit of love though. Some of them seem to just blend between each other too much. For example, his beard hair seems to have the same gloss value as the metal around it, and so it looks metallic rather than hairy. The face could use a lot more color, some… -
Re: Altair WIP
hi man, keep chugging away! however- it looks like you're pushing bits and pieces around without concentrating on the next important goal. Leave the folds for a bit and look at the stomach armour and acessories. The main thing cloth wise thats missing is the hood, I'd make it obvious that its not a one-piece suit- it also… -
Re: 3ds Max 2010 Is Here...
and this is not a "invert green channel" issue? never ran into that, ok not doing much super hard surfaces, only armoprs from time to time, but depending on the engine i only have to flip the green channel and thats it, the maps that come out of max can go straight into unreal without any problems, the main difference i…
