So, I'm constructing a sci-fi gun for my space marine. I just finished baking the high polygon mesh and added a basic color. Just wanted to get some feedback before I start on the diffuse map. This first image in gray is the high polygon mesh. The second is the low polygon with the normal and an AO map. Thanks! :)

@dataday Thanks for the documentary, it was really good. That being said, I still don't understand your seeming contempt for the actions of the teacher in question. I understand you work in the education system, and I'm certain you do your very best to educate your students in spite of the system's apparent corruption and…
Hi. I am always pushing Daz3D because I love the possibility to rotate a figure around while I use it as reference. It's a free to use program so don't be tricked into paying for it on a bad link. You can also remove the textures so you get a better idea of form. Also best to have it on a separate screen while you work.
Congratulations to Phil or PRS-Phil. After living with me for a nearly a year he finally landed a job at Rockstar Leeds as 3D Artist! All your hard efforts payed off( ha ha ha ). Have a great time there and feel the Rockstar "Vibe"!
You may have heard some rumblings a few months back, and the rumors are true: I joined a team of monkeys (8Monkey Labs), and that the game we're working on (Darkest of Days) was officially announced and featured in PC Gamer. Despite having a small team, we have two polycounters on-site (EQ and myself), as well as several…
Hi guys I have couple questions regarding normal mapping, please help me out. I build this low poly model to test out normal mapping, first I build the model in maya, lay out the UVs and imported it into zbrush. I added some details using zbrush and I used zmapper to generate a normal map for me. I then bring the normal…
+1 to 2x8 You can drop the cpu cooler unless you have a specific need for it, Intel's stock fan is usually fine. If you're going to OC or are building an ultra silent system or something maybe replace it, otherwise no need. You can go with a less expensive motherboard too, no need to pay for EXTREME GAMER mobo unless you…
I think what some are noticing is that Modo has a very "smooth" navigation feel to it. Coming from other apps, this may be interpreted as "sluggish" but its more or less just a change in feel. I hated it at first too, but then just spend a day or two with it before it became unnoticeable. Now if I load up Maya or Blender,…
