It looks like there is a lot of pinching and distortion, which is probably from the pelt unwrap... Not many people use pelt anymore now that tools like point to point seams and relax do the same job in half the time. Also what is the goal of this model? It seems pretty low poly so I would think a small highly detailed…
It's hard to do, I left my 3d artist position because of how the place was managed and cannot find another job. <--- just enrolled to become a apprentice electrician at 37. I won't move for the 'job' wife has an awesome job here in Dallas and I don't enjoy doing art at home anymore. I'm going to try and find another career…
I think the flowing shapes in this one are an important step forward for you in your journey with these pictures. Initially when you stuck with the sharp straight edged shapes you were sticking too much with what had gone before and it seemed more like clever artifice than the playful piece of art that this one is. When…
Pretty good start. Here are some things that might help. Use a free app like Daz 3d on a monitor next to your work screen. You can dial in muscularity, volume and weight variations, you can pose it and allows you to rotate around the figure while working. Download a free .obj skeleton from the web and place it under your…
Dog run - Feels nice. You might get more of a reach with the paws as the dog reaches forward but maybe it was in your ref. Side view looks good. Front view, things look a little more stiff. Maybe it's the angle, but the chest area feels a little wooden. There's also a pop that I'm seeing from f5-8. With it cycling, it…
Nice one Bugo. About time we had one of these. Anyway, here's a few more : FileTextureManager - For fixing texture paths. Also can automatically copy/paste textures into new locations. Consolidate all those outsourced models and textures into your file structure with a single button click :D…
As far as the low poly mesh density, if you are going to do something why not just do it the way you know it should be done? the marmoset shots are much better in terms of presentation, I'm glad you're learning it, nice job! the pose looks kind of weak. I would go for either something more relaxed or more dynamic. right…
You know this might sound weird, maybe I'm just looking for something different, but all the things you said you didn't like about the game made me really excited to get back into this. I don't want to be presented with complexity right off the bat in a F2P game like this. Especially one that looks so neat. I want to take…
The smoke screen might sound like a good idea on first glance, but it is really next to useless, even if it works as you proposed...firstly it would impede your own beam weapons at the same time...but, more importantly, it wouldn't follow any delta-v...in a space battle nothing is more important than maneuverability...if a…
Only old timers left here :D (jk) Its not dead especially the technical art forum, I love replying there and guiding others asking for help on tech related issues. I do hang out in Discord communities these days which one can say are more active in a way that people from different timezones reply to your questions right…
