I've been modelling hard surface for 6 years(7 now) with nothing all that impressive to show for it, sadly ): . But now I want to see how it's like to model actual characters So I just picked up a random male anatomy reference from the wiki and started attempting to model that. And I'm not sure if I went about that the…
I am not going to post a long list of reasons why I am here but to put it shortly - I lost focus of game art for over 4+ years and decided I want back in. I am at a low level atm but I am grinding to level up... so far I have been going through tuts over at 3d Motive - here are my results so far. flats (web edition!) udk…
ATMOSPHERE: The game will have a very serious and dark atmosphere to it. STORY: You and your girlfriend go to visit your father and your other relatives who live in a massive mansion in a semi-remote area of the Alaskan coastline. You discover that no one is home and you enter inside only to be chased by the slasher into a…
roof is done! The gate feels pretty finished right now. Not crazy about the stone tiles but they're not the centerpiece so maybe it's not a super big deal if they're not perfect. been playing around with shading through photoshop but nothing i'm confident enough to show just yet i didn't get as much as i wanted done today,…
Just some random thoughts, maybe you should try it out see if that changes anything. . Include frame 65 in your fbx export. When I tried to remove the last frame of my run animation to have something that loops perfectly, that's when I noticed some hicup in my cycle. Not sure if I was hallucinating, but who knows, maybe…
Hey there again TeeJay. Again, don't feel bad about it - you just need to identify what makes a good landscape painting. (I personally don't do many of these hence I am no expert on the subject - but still, there are some general advice worth sharing). First, you need to find a starting point. You might have seen videos of…
"Considering that you can sell artwork through their system with a simple click on the button, on which they reap profits, I would say yes." No, that is completely false and the law agrees. DA is not liable for the stupid things people do on their website. It's called Section 203 Safe Harbors. They are only required to…
Well I think its not too complicated...when you're dealing with a free piece of software, there is no guaranteed support when sh*t hits the fan... If a major film studio is rendering out an insane sequence deep into crunch hours and has to deliver it in 3 days....and they run into some random bug in the render…
Various tricks. Noise would work, but I have a technique I have used for 15+ years that I learned from a photo retouching book. The human eye is sensitive to horizontal and vertical lines but not to random diagonals. So, I create a bunch of random star shapes to cut out pieces of a texture then move the pieces over the…
@Eric: Didn't know it was called a 'udim' layout. Thanks for the links Eric. @Brad: It's probably the size of the mesh. I didn't add any progress bar as of yet. No clue how much it would actually take currently, I could work on adding that tonight. I think the script does exactly what you ask for, it's just probably not…
