Re: Portfolio Review - Recent Graduate
So here is my personal opinion on what you could keep / should get rid of :) You could keep (with some tips for improvement): - The shield: it's too flat -> work on the specular map, diffuse (damage, wear etc.) and normal map (get the details in there) - The wooden thing with the rope: it has a kinda strange and noisy… -
Re: Sketch Book: Cheese Cake
I thought i'd start by putting up some of my 3D work that has been created over the past year or so, it includes models, sculpting, texturing etc using 3DSmax and Photoshop CS5. Through my internship i've now learnt to model in maya too but I can't put any of that work up just yet :) Simple Chalkboard asset pack, included… -
Re: Modelling Eyelashes!
Here's a different method that might work although this one is based in 3dsmax using the Snapshot tool (some helpful maya user might be able to provide a way to do it..) Create a spline from an edge loop around the eye which the eyelashes will be attached to. Create a single eyelash much like the method MM uses above. Make… -
Re: Gaming Industry (help)
get a conceptart.org account, it's free and it's giving you a bunch of useful tools like a custom gallery, hosting up to 18 images and a personal sketchbook; also, you'll get involved in the community and will be able to both promote your work and look what's going on around. look at other artist's work and see what trends… -
Re: Portfolio critiques wanted
I'm no master, so keep that in mind, but here's my thoughts. In terms of art: - Work on giving your models more interesting silhouettes. The buildings in the medieval village scene, for example, are all very simple and it makes them just look like a box with a triangle on top of it. - Your diffuse textures seem to be… -
Re: [WIP][UE4] Arizona Gas Station Environment
UPDATE: Hello guys, it's been a while and I was doing lots and lots of highpolys for plants and it was really fun. Baking and texturing was nice as well. I modelled the foliage inside 3dsMax and zBrush, then polypainted it in zBrush also. Baking was done in Substance. I think I'm fairly relieved how my first plants turned… -
Re: Another: m4a1 wip, asking for feedback
The material setup is easy, I just set material specularity to 20% and diffuse amount to 40% for all- sights, screws and the handle piece itself. The more metallish pieces are set to 5% on reflection amount (blurry reflection type in modo) and the handle part (darker piece) to 1% with 20% fresnel (not sure what's the… -
Re: Low poly Barrel with Normal Map (First Try)
Bump maps aren't USUALLY used for individual models. You get more flexibility and range out of normal maps than bumps. I would reserve bump maps for high noise details like skin pores, or flecks of stuff, etc. Yes, but it's slower than using something like Substance Painter, which does a better job of applying it in terms… -
Re: Veterans and Aspiring: What does your dream Game Art degree look like?
I would prefer a 3 year degree really. -1st year focus on art foundation(colour, lighting, texture, composition etc) and the basics of 3d and 3d modelling in an industry standard app. -2nd year focus on specialisation and have modules where students can try out some specializations(modelling, animation, texturing and ui… -
Re: Unfolding UV for Human figures -best practices?
Normal maps are seamless if you bake them right. There are a few tricks to painting out diffuse seams, skin tone is probably one of the easiest types of seams to fix. 3dsmax >Viewport Canvas allows you to paint on the model, it even has a clone tool. In 2D view wherever you paint on one seam it spreads to all the other…
