Re: He-Man (MOTU) !!WIP!!
Sorry guys, first picture's pretty huge, forgot to rescale it. It's 3.30AM over here in Austria and I am a bit tired. So, this picture is from a previous version (the one I've made the last renders from). It has no diffuse, red and green channels flipped (sorry dur23 - no real frontlight on this one). Now the weird thing… -

I really like how you got the normals/spec/diffuse to work… -

Maya is actually really good with normal maps. There's a couple things that coulda messed with your render. Inverted meshs, mentalray/raytracing being an ass. Etc etc. Sometimes when i open maya i find some of my meshs with normal maps are displaying wrong, even though the last time i closed it, it was working fine. All i…
