I made some tests, and the results with 4k texture aren't crispy enough. I have seen a lot of renders in Artstation with 4k textures with a very high res result, Why my renders only achieve this kind of details with 8k textures? The texel density is around 19px/cm. Still, I would like to say that after testing, If I double…
Of course, for example "https://www.artstation.com/artwork/B34gJ9". As you can see, the level of detail is pretty damn good, while mine using also 4k textures is not that detailed. Right now the uvs are like this, with a uniform texel density of 20 px/cm and more padding in between uvs shells to avoid bleeding.
First things to consider are. What do you see of that character at any given time? Usually a character in most games doest have a super even texel density, unless they are always seen at the same distance. Meaning, in a fps game you will likely have lower arms and hands at significantly more texture resolution than the…
