k700 tractor model and texture wip
Hello everyone , my first post here. Thanks for the great artwork shown around here, very inspiring ! I've almost finished a tractor game model for personal study, i'm showing it for feedback and suggestions for improving, mostly on texturing. It's a russian k700 tractor , modelled and textured in Blender , it's meant as… -
Re: k700 tractor model and texture wip
Pic below : shaded with normalmap only , after erasing artifacts , and fixing quite a few smoothing problems (edges that needed to be sharp). I also put togheter normals from hipoly and handpainted scratches. A very bad news is that i couldn't bake this in Blender directly , Seems that the bake tool ignores node materials… -
Re: k700 tractor model and texture wip
Hi, Another pass on textures , added spec map. I stopped using the node shader and worked on the baked textures (not lightbaked . , i just mean baked to a flat image instead of mixing various handpainted and tileable maps using nodes) For the color channel i just added some big stamps of leaks and scratches from photos to… -
Re: k700 tractor model and texture wip
Hi, i know what you mean about the normals. Always takes some tuning.. I've made a new version reducing scratches strenght and blurrying them a little. But keep in mind that shader is only to spot artifacts , without color the normalmap is bound to look a bit odd , i think Or do you mean also the final shader had too much… -
Re: k700 tractor model and texture wip
Update , textured the crane : I paid attention to the issue of AO in diffuse meant to give low-freq details, as well as painting a layer for pure color (red /beige ) with soft gradients of discoloration for the same reason of having low-freq / big scale details that help reading the volumes and making the model more solid… -
Re: k700 tractor model and texture wip
The tractor is not completely done, but i'm also doing some additional props (the idea is to make it into a diorama scene , not a full env. but like a model with a base and some stuff around , then render a turntable ) For this 'jerry can' i used the node shader an controlmap method , but also 'traditional' painting and… -
Re: k700 tractor model and texture wip
Some tweaks on the spec map , the shader , and started modelling details. For the diffuse i took some ideas from the Bradley tutorial : i reduced the value contrast for the dirt : hue and saturation are more important for dirt, and in general for the color map .. That i knew already,(and i think it's a useful principle)…
