Re: [Showcase] Updated older artwork and curated Portfolio for 2025
I may rework the character model geometry in the future, at the moment I just wanted to focus on the lighting. I felt that the 2018 model was very poorly lit with the materials not being defined (like subsurface) and little to no definition of the form, shape and details. By adding some rim lights and reworking the… -
Re: Mecha Construction - Basics
Basically just fill the gaps in what ever way you find works the best visually. This is a good opportunity to think about the major forms and what supports the silhouette. If it doesn't add to it then it probably doesn't need to be modeled and can be defined in the maps. Still depends a lot on what you're going for… -
Re: Heavy combo WIP
Hey RMunday, I wrote some notes on syncsketch about the poses. I think you should hold off on the splines and go back to focusing on poses. I have trouble exaggerating my work too. I find it helpful to look at other animations and see how far they push it. After pushing your key poses further, you should define your… -
Re: Snap Back Hat
* The stitch down the front-center unrealistically fades into a smooth surface - I would either continue the stitch-fold below the logo, to the bill, or completely remove it. * Lighting the object will allow its normal maps (if any) and the rest of the shader to better define the material surfaces you're working to figure… -
Re: How would you approach this? 3ds Max
Since you already have the sewing pattern, you could try the Cloth modifier. Trace the two shapes with splines, apply the Garment Maker modifier or Subdivide set to Delaunay, copy (edit: reference) and arrange very roughly like shown by Eric, define the connected seams and simulate in place with some internal pressure. If… -

Re: Why no AO in albedo?
Cole hit the nail on the head, but I think its important to give a practical example as well. Go into your kitchen, and look under your fridge. Its dark under there, right? This is because the light source is occluded. Now, go grab a flash light and shine it under the fridge. The previously occluded area is now illuminated… -
Re: Do you do damage models and textures?
Making damage states is a pain in the ass. The method I've used for sims and stuff is always canned: You just hide the swapped mesh with lots of smoke, debris and flames. Also the "shatter" and break mels I have found over the years ALWAYS kill the UV's, and if it doesn't kill the first UV, it kills the second UV or the UV…
