Jessica and I talked about this but I said I'm going to post it to her thread for others to read: While you're reusing some geometry to build a complete asset, I challenge the idea that this is modular. What is modular about this is what I've already said, you're split the asset (the bridge) up in to individual elements…
Hey guys! Here's a bridge I'm working on in order to learn modularity. When I am done, I am going to reuse the pieces to create something else (not sure what yet, but I'm thinking something along the lines of a courtyard). So far I have my model snapped together in UDK, and I am working on the textures. I am treating some…
Gannon - That means a lot to me! I've been working hardest to improve in the area of color since I felt that was one of my shortcomings in my last project. Hopefully my values are working well too - that is another thing. EiGHT - Haha, yes, must keep it below 5 months this time D: Visceral - Aw, thanks :] leaf3D - Some of…
Very inspiring piece! I envy your stylized texturing skills :) A note for you modularity, you could possibly break the stairs in half and add more definition to their models. This method depends on the engine, but adds more detail without a hit to the memory. Also, you can use it for smaller staircase situations too!
Your texturing is always inspiring to see im still trying to improve my own painting but its been a rocky process. Anyway, the scene is already very solid start! I know its a bit early to be thinking about it but itd be awesome to see you tackle a modular WoW themed city/village scene.
Wow.. You've made quite an improvement since you started with those fountains. I think you've got the modularity pretty much under control. Serith's got a good point but you could break up the tiling on those stairs further by creating three different stairs with about 3 steps on each. You can always mirror these as well…
ok si if i'm understanding, you are making 2 modular pieces of floor that are just the 2 halves of your texture that you already made. you have to line those up though 12121212 or it wouldn't work though right? also, yea.. i mean i think this got all confusing when you decided to do the texture as tiling and then changed…
Thanks for all the comments guys :] toxic_h20 - Maybe! ;) hathol - I'm not sure when I'll be streaming again, I guess if people want it I could post here when I stream next? And I have two laptops (mac/pc) that I switch off working between with a flashdrive. Goraaz - Thanks! The stairs and their sidepieces are actually one…
slipsius, Sukotto - I will work more on the lighting - I'm not really sure why I have so few shadows on my building right now o.O I've added some dirt to the shoreline, although I think it's a bit red so I will be tweaking the color of that. Tigerfeet, Blasoid - I agree about the wood, it doesn't read from a distance. I…
I wish there was more color variation in the red-painted wood. I really like the green roof tiles and think you've got some great colors in there. Compared to the roof the red wood looks pretty flat. Especially down near the water the paint would be worn away and the wood would be grey or even might have some algae on it.…
