Artist's Rights Matter
Recently, many of you became aware that Bethesda began to allow mod developers to sell mods. They then took that right away. Mod developing is a form of art. They essentially took away our right as artists to sell our work. Please help fight this decision on their official forums by following this link and commenting:… -
Re: UE4 Sunset Lighting
I can suggest you to start from the skybox color, then tweak it together with a directional light and a skylight. In this case you don't want a dynamic solution (like a day-night cycle) but a still solution on the sunset, right? So first make a good skybox: remember that your skylight will be affected by sky colors and… -
Re: Cyber Punk Venice-type City - UDK
Hello there! This is a very large scene, quite an undertaking for one person! Lots of cool layering and depth. I have a few comments that might could help you with your lighting. I'll only generalize and am mainly focused on creating a solution for your first screen shot that you can work across your scene. The first thing… -
Re: Seasonal Forest
Hi Jody, These are already looking really nice in that you've definitely captured different seasons although they're not obvious exactly what seasons (which isn't a bad thing!). I totally appreciate if you're strapped for time but if you can, I'd definitely recommend combining your three 30 minutes spent here into a single… -
Re: When is the right moment to cancel a project.
Now I might not be like some super cool epyc art guy with like 16 environments that top the front page every hour and responds to every question with "oh i'm actually under NDA i can't disclose that B) " yet. But this post reads like all the thoughts that run through my head when I get an anxiety attack. And I do get those… -
Re: I Need Pointers on Form, Lighting and Stuff
I think, overall, you can be a bit more blunt with your shadows. From right-to-left/top-to-bottom: 1. 50% black over your base colours. Shadows, being a lack of light, are black. But if we abstract the indirect and atmospheric light, by making black 50% transparent, it'll already give a good idea of how some nice contrast… -
Re: [UE4] Carousel Environment
I think you have great sense of modeling and overall taking shots of your work. I like the piece but I can see it being so much better. Lighting is everything right now for your finishing steps. Your models are fine but the way you present them is missing some real time and effort. I'm not saying that you didn't put in the… -
Re: Prisma Palette: Light based Photoshop picker plugin.
This is super cool. I bought this when it first came out because it was so neat but I'm just now getting around to trying it. I'm using Beta 4. But beta 4 looks different than your tutorial on your website so I'm a little confused on how stuff is set up. Do you have documentation for it? The use of icons over text adds to… -
Re: [WIP] The Northman interior Environment - Cult
Back again with another update to this one. This time I've: - Pushed the lighting. I liked the godray shining onto the runestone to attract the eye a bit more and thought I could get some storytelling going there with the ravens having flown in to sit menacingly on our little runestone. - Moved around some pillars and… -
Re: Lighting Process & Workflow Tips
Thanks errbody! I started writing this blog at the top of the year to try to put myself out into the community a bit and I'm really excited by your comments. @leleuxart - That's a good question and it really depends. Ideally, the lighting team should stake their claim early in the project so budgets are noted and accounted…
