Re: Jesses Props
[ QUOTE ] I still just don't think the texture is looking good at all, color scheme or not. The spec isn't working, the diffuse isn't working, and the gloss most certainly isn't working.

Re: Jesses Props
Wait you dont have spec? You have all those scratch details in your diffuse? Take them out and put them in your spec, that definitely shouldn't be in your diffuse map dude. -
Re: Jesses Props
If you leave it in leave it very very subtle, you want scratches to be a dynamic thing, they get bright because you see light reflecting off of a surface that is very shiney. If you were texturing something chrome, you wouldnt make it bright white in the diffuse because the material shines. So why would you make bright… -
Re: Jesses Props
i notice people associate metal with a tight specular highlight for metal. i think it's because of the highly reflective metals like chrome have them. really dull metals don't have them, but the ones inbetween, like a bronze or soemthing, does have a highlight, but i see the larger surface information more important. it's… -

Ok heres the first pass on materials (diffuse, normal) on my knife. -
Re: Jesses Props
cool stuff Jesse Those blocks look like they dont have an diffuse(do they?). -
Re: Jesses Props
ok took some thoughts mentioned here. Created the spec map for this and really lightened the scratches and scuffs in the diffuse to a really really light overlay. -

Re: Jesses Props
Yeah planned on posting these anyways. The textures are all 1024x1024. I tried 512s for the diffuse but it washed out a lot of the detail. I could probably get away with a 512 on the normal and opacity / alpha but it doesn't need to be optimized for any specific purpose. and here are the wires -
Re: Jesses Props
Disagree Earth, why would you take scratches out of a diffuse, the metal has scratched the paint/overcoat/whatever off; why would it only show up in a specular hit and be hidden the rest of the time? I don't think that would make any sense.
