http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsurface_scattering As its name suggests, Sub Surface Scattering is a complex algorithm that attempts to bounce light around beneath a surface in the same way that it does in reality. Beyond that I'm not sure I follow what you mean by 'how' they work. Sounds to me like you're wanting to get…
It has been too damn long... been moving at snail's pace cause 2nd year high school is a pain... and I am shit at motivation recently blah blah etc. Any ways just a couple of screens of the decimated versions of the current high poly rendered in blender's cycles renderer. Kinda want to start low poly retopo, so I just have…
Hi! 👋🖤 My name is Swapilla, I am an indie director, writer and animator. I'm a former Roblox animator and current UE5 creator. I’m currently making a massive long-term and unpaid passion project. A 10 episode animated horror series made entirely in Unreal Engine 5. The series follows Sean and Steph, estranged siblings, who…
Hello! Here is a project I have been working on in my free time, learning new techniques, and most of all, having fun. You can check more renders at my Artstation https://www.artstation.com/artwork/dyNyx3
Hi everyone! I’m Jean-Luc Hernandez, a freelance 3D artist focusing on stylized asset creation for video games. I specialize in PBR texturing (Substance Painter) and hand-painted rendering, working mainly with Unreal Engine 5 and Unity. 🛠️ What I do: * Stylized 3D props & environment assets * Game-ready topology & UVs *…
I will say in a post mortem reflection, maybe not so ironically, I was correct in that my DCC of choice did change throughout this project. The majority of the project was made in 3DS Max and Blender. I would say about 55% of it was 3DS Max, and the rest of it was finished in Blender. (Both were accompanied by Zbrush) when…
POM is pretty expensive and prone to a lot of artefacting - personally i try to avoid it unless I'm not in a position to generate the mesh I actually need (damage decals are a great use case for POM) - Nanite has no bearing on this at all. There is a baseline cost to using Nanite and you need to be sure that your target…
Hey, thank you so much for taking the time to give me this feedback — I genuinely appreciate it! I'm a fresh graduate 3D artist, and I'm eager to keep learning and improving. The piece you mentioned was rendered in Marmoset, and you’re absolutely right — I still have a lot to work on, especially with lighting and SSS.…
Of course you can! I highlighted for you my long, non-square tile. Perfectly tiles as you see. You can do this Naughty Dog style: Here is Preview render: Best render with shadows: Here is the displacement alpha: Here is the Know-how: The creator of this super genius plugin is Marcus Civis: retired. Read below carefully,…
AO is a simple (not physically accurate) rendering technique that will darken any surfaces that are near to other surfaces. AO typically produces something closer to a dirt effect than a realistic lighting effect. In ray-tracing mode, global illumination is used instead - this accurately simulates how light bounces from…
