If you screengrab the footage you can actually see curvature of the sphere quite clearly within the black areas : So I think two more tests could give it away : uploading a fully flat mid grey render (which would reveal any shading that the 3D rendering of the sphere adds to the footage) ; and, a render made of very thin…
Like can you get good results with it? I'm not sure if that's what Hossein Diba uses in his final renders? I'm trying to decide how to do the hair on a character I've been spending too long on I made a really complicated outfit with so many subtools so i feel like putting it all into maya (and probably resizing it) would…
Today I'm presenting a project that took me a few months to complete. I created a completely fictitious race, a sort of parody of Le Mans 66, with cars that I designed myself. I did the entire project on my own : vehicle design, 3D modeling, painting and rendering. I enjoyed making this project, and I hope you'll enjoy…
Hi, long time no post! I'm currently working on this AR-15 for practice, including internal parts to learn how the mechanics work. All modeling done in Max, bakes and renders in Marmoset.More attachments and texture updates soon!
Hello Polycounters! I am currently working on my project which includes 5s animation. Everything seemed to work fine during the viewport animation, but unfortunately after rendering it turned out to be a problem with the grass animation. I will describe my way of thinking so that we can determine what the problem may be. I…
Ok here's what I've got so far ^ I'm currently attempting Wind Waker style lighting and aided with @SimonT 's very helpful Hyrule Travel Guide I think I've come relatively close. In the article it's proposed that you render a sphere 3 times: Pass 1: only the back faces into a stencil Pass 2: front faces increment the…
greetings :) I need some advice from more those who have experience. Here´s the thing, I will be going on a trip for about a year, (I'm from Argentina, but I will be visiting France.I have an aunt there. and Brazil. and a few other countries). As a 2D freelance artist I work 95% of the time at home, so this trip comes just…
Personal project I did for fun to teach myself Octane. I bought the license for it and am using the plugin in Maya for it. Started sketching some ideas on my iPad in Procreate, then started a 3D blockout in Maya. I composed the shot and setup Octane materials and lighting, then composited renders in Photoshop. Last step is…
Hey guys, kinda sad that my first post had to be a question but I've run into a little snag with my model. For a little background, I'm a 3d max/Zbrush user, using max to model low poly and using zbrush to detail. Now onto my problem. The first image is a render with basic 3 point lighting just to get some detail from the…
Hello all. After getting my website up and running, I've been getting advice on how to improve my portfolio. Pretty common feedback says I need a demo reel as potential employers would like to see how my work looks in motion (even if it's just a turn table). So in planning for such a reel, I though I needed a fully…
