Re: Environment Artist Portfolio Feedback
Hi there! I really like your newest UE4 piece and I think getting some more solid examples of that level will help you land a job. I think you're well on your way. One thing you could do is re-render older pieces: for example, the typewriter renders stand out a lot. I'd say re-do those renders one with better lighting… -
Re: my FIRST game character
search and read some of the joint rotation threads here. for example the boot looks like it is bending the legs independently of the ankle as if the boot is snapping her shins. and the neck is bending the head backward impossibly giving a turtle like impression. Both examples from the extreme crouch pose. But these are… -
Re: 3ds Max/Zbrush: Proboolean + Dynamesh hardsurface workflow tutorial
Yes, staying in Max is a bit of a hack in comparison to dynamesh or a tool like meshfusion in modo, but dynamesh method is a little clunky I feel. Did you see the presentation at Zsummit 2014 showing this exact technique? Some nice examples plus the mask/project trick to clean up the inevitable dirty edges that dynamesh… -
Re: WIP- UE4 Statue Bathhouse
Technically the statues on the side are not the same as the one in the center, though they are very similar. Not a problem to take them out if they seem like overkill. I don't have a reference with both of the arches in the same scene but I have seen examples where there are 2 stories with different types of… -
Re: Modeling: Maya Vs. Max
Bevel has an apply setting, where it just keeps doing it every time you hit apply. I bevel once with a larger setting, then hit apply, and dial it down. It gives me rounded edges like those chamfer examples, but as long as I selected proper edge loops, none of that corner funkiness. Though truth be told I don't use it so… -
Cel Shading
Hello! I had an effect that I'm wondering if it is possible or how difficult it may be. I'd like two-tone cel shader that reacts to light, I know this is doable. I'd like to be able to plug in two texture maps, one for the light color, one for the shadow, if possible, instead of using a material for each object or just… -
Re: Does anyone use instaMAT . is it worth a try and deeper learning?
it actually could look through published documentation if you specifically ask it to do so. And i sometimes understand absolutely nothing in said documentations while chat does and can explain it in normal peoples language. I learned more from Chat about physics for example than I ever did from human teachers . Just to… -
Re: Sketchbook: Lucy W.
Welcome to Polycount! This is great, love your style. I wish your texturing was a bit more sharp. Might have do with your texturing packing. If the whole diorama is packed into a single texture sheet, that really limits you. I would suggest instead packing according to prop type. For example, the computer prop and… -
Re: Xenomite-X (The apex predator of WAR)
"It’s meant to be a functional military unit, not a relic" From my experience, rapid fire heavy weapon muzzle/barrel jacket discoloration becomes a factor mainly due too heat after extended use hence on occasion the barrel may become unservicable (shot-out) and replaced. Example - 50 cal MG -
Marvelous Designer. Some noob questions...
Hi! I recently started learning marvelous designer, and I'm already got stuck on basic controls. I can't for the life of me figure out how to drag and select multiple objects in 3d view! It says right here in the manual: But no matter what I try, it doesn't work. Selection rectangle doesn't appear. I can only click on…
