@Goeddy Yeah the predominantly flat normal map is definitely a major contribution factor to the issue, its just a shame that DDO doesn't attempt to use other data to create a better informed curvature map. I'm also not entire convinced yet that this isn't a problem, but i'll admit that its sometimes hard to visualise what…
Hello, I'm trying to bake converted xGen Hair to Geometry Eyebrows/ Eyelashes, into a Normal Map and Alpha Mask on Marmoset Toolbag 4 for better hair accuracy. But the problem is that nothing gets baked. I've manipulated the cage several times but the normals appear blank on Marmoset, the result is there below. I've also…

Something I notice in grad work is that its common to spend a lot of triangles in small fine detail areas while neglecting the larger silhouette. If you take some of the triangles out of the high density areas and spend them in…
So I was about to start brushing wood stain on our fence and I noticed...there's no strong contrasty shadows and highlights on the wood panels. These pics were taken noontime, facing south but in the shade and the sun was about 75-80 degrees above (we're closer to the north pole than the equator). Only used an iphone. No…
Nice! 2 comments though. Maya LT has no poly limit for game artists, and that is a huge deal to me. I know, I have complained loudly about this before... just sad to see the 100K limit is still there, because I feel it is behind the times, especially with Modo now exporting instances and replicators to FBX and Unity and…
Hi everyone. I've created a shader override for maya in vp2 with Zebra Curvature clay reflection line and drafta Analysis to better understand the surface continuity. For anyone want a good 3d model this is a must ot have. https://youtu.be/PwiVDEOUQxI The link on my gumroad on video description on youtube.
I'm a big fan of the minimalistic look, personally, and the circuit pattern is much more evocative of engineer than artist, but if you want to keep it I would suggest darkening/lowering the saturation of the circuits, they're the most prominent part of your business card when it should be your name and info. Personally I'd…
