Re: Meat Cleaver
maybe it was just a trick of the lighting. in the other pic, it looks kind of like the wood is lit from above, and the bandage from below.. just to be a pain is there any chance of seing the same thing without diffuse? and mebes move the light fairly far away from the model so the light is hitting it more or less at the… -
Re: Low Poly Dalek
your really going to have to consider reducing the polycount of this. the cylinder in the second shot could be trans mapped. and the plunger doesnt need anywhere near as many polys. The spheres at the base of the arms could be totally removed and achieved with a normal map. A good way to think of low poly work is focus on… -
Re: Kitchen Painting style
Thanks you both I might go and do some sharpen for the cloudy effects of some part. But you are right I need to tone down the value of the metal surrounding of the stove and change a bit the dirt on the book. The process is only using a diffuse so it's a lot of tweak to get things right. I must say I tend to like more the… -
Re: Unity (5) // Mesh / Vertex Painting for Texture / How ?
Well thank you jfitch, after having looked all over the internet, it seems that painting outside the Engine and importing back the models is the best approach I could find, I've managed to drive diffuse, normal and specular maps with that technique. Not yet compatible with PBR, but it should be soon as Unity 5 is young and… -
Re: UAT Art Jam - 3D Critique 1 and 2
I don't have a solid workflow as of yet, but my plan is: Zbrush > Zsphere dirty mesh Zbrush > Chunk out form Blender & Maya > Retopologize to create clean mesh & create accessories Zbrush > Sculpt & Polypaint clean meshes Zbrush > Unwrap UVs Maya > Arrange UVs Zbrush > Paste new UVs to base meshs & export Diffuse Map &… -
Re: Monthly Community Noob Challenge Ausgust 2015 (33)
Ta-da! First time ever using Zbrush! I used some sculpting videos for advice and made a hi-poly plank. I duplicated, transformed and rotated the plank a few times in Max to make a square area, then used XNormal to bake the hi-poly group down onto a texture for normal and AO. Using the AO map as a starting point I made a… -
Re: best workflow with detail maps?
In this case you don't need a second set of uv coordinate. You only need to change the shader to have an extra texture input for albedo and for normal, and read them at multiplied uv0 coordinates . Eg for diffuse, if you want to blend the colors from the main and detail texture, with the detail texture using 10x tiled… -
Re: Walords of Draenor Inspired Weapon.
Okay, so I edited the texture per Teriyakis advice, also added fire effects, unfortunately screwing up my big diffuse file in the process, curse you 3D-Coat (Just kidding, I love you) Still yet to add a special effect I had planned but its late and Im le tired. Crits still super welcome! [Also added the… -
Re: What's happening with the AO?
1) it looks like mental ray is fudging up the padding, not surprising. 2) Are you sure you're baking AO and not a diffuse map with lights and shadows turned on? That's pretty weird. 3) Do you have any overlapping pieces in your UV layout? They should be moved outside of the 0:1 space, preferably exactly one tile to the… -
Re: First tree- CC please!
I'd tone down the contrast on the leaves a bit by backing up the shadows and bit and reducing the highlights on the diffuse. Right now it's a little hard to look at since it has almost every value in the spectrum on every pine. (I.E near pure white and near pure dark). Looking at the flat texture I'd say the same for the…
