Re: Portfolio advice and critique
In that case, the book and the chest wouldn't be suitable for opening cutscenes either, as they've got some really low poly sections which wouldn't look consistent with the rest of the mesh. You need to decide what the purpose of the asset is and make the mesh suitable for that purpose. Either high res and detailed for a… -
Re: LOW-POLY ART
Noren Thanks, but no, I didn't use AI. It was just a model to practice painting. And you're right - I spent about five hours on it in total, which is probably why it looks a bit rushed. As for the rest, yeah, my Sketchfab is a collection of various pieces, many of them are published works that clients didn't pick up for… -
Re: {Finished} 1996 Toyota Crown Comfort.
Nice work. The small protrusions on the front of the hood (turn signals?) seem to have more curvature triangles than the rest of the surfaces, is there a reason for that? There's a fair amount of chunkiness elsewhere, by comparison. How are you doing the texturing on the headlights & brakelights? A contractor I know… -
Re: what's a standard game developer salary in Germany?
If you compare it with most of the rest of the world, it is ;) But do I know the joys of living in London... stayed there for a while. Was cool but absurdly expensive when it came to rent. I haven't come across a more expensive place for renting... maybe Silicon Valley, NYC? I would still consider London in the future, I… -
Re: Portfolio artwork STEALING alert :P
You want my Chinese and Russian visitors that visit 20 times a day and grab 28kb of data per visit? Sure, you can have them. Quality visits. Let's look at AW stats and blogger side by side. These are pretty much all the statistics that matter to a character or environment artist, who will appropriately ignore the rest of… -
Re: [WIP] Inca-Inspired Cave Ruins
Hey @ddgurto that's a great update! The scene already reads much better, good job on that! In the first image it's still a bit unclear to me which one the focal point should be. is it the ornamental wall or is it the pillar. Currently the sun is shining on both of them separately. I'd try to have a clear indication where… -
Re: Photo Scanning Pikachu
Plush is probably not the best choice for (detailed) photo scanning, as the deeper parts between the hair are obscured pretty quickly when you change your position and you'd need a crazy resolution to scan the actual hair. The overall falloff/fresnel effect caused by this might not matter that much, but could still play a… -
Re: WIP -Stylized Katana Sword
I ran some render tests and some of the ambient shadows were too strong(the metal piece at the bottom of the sheath, for example), but that was just because the object weren't close enough to eachother. The rest of the model was fine, so I decided to move on to texturing. I also prepared an ID map to have an easier time… -
Re: How do people get so much resolution in their textures on low poly models?
They reuse UVs a lot. Only 1/2 the face is textured, the other 1/2 is mirrored in UV space to use the same 1/2 texture. Same with any symmetrical body parts... only one arm is mapped, only one leg, etc. The helmet UVs are even more optimized... only a small section of the helmet is textured, and all the rest of the helmet… -
Re: CAHDD™ (Computer Aided Human Designed & Developed) — voluntary workflow transparency + watermark too
I will keep it self-contained in my thread here. I wanted to get back into the trenches of CG forums and get input, but forums have gone the way of the DoDo Bird, sorry to have intruded, just wanted your valuable input and perspective. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
