Re: Intuitive software for Lighting and Rendering
Depending on how you create hair, you may need render engine to support hair system in DCC app. Of course, if you create hair as image planes or render it as polygons you can use any render. Softimage is indeed top notch software with intuitive workflow, but I'm not sure it will suit your needs. Also, it's hair tools are… -
Re: Forest Environment - Unreal Engine 4
Hey mate, I did a quick adjustment on top of the last shot: I just believe that colors need to be a bit more vibrant since it's a beautiful day. You could probably boost the yellow on the foliage SSS and make the dirt more reddish perhaps? And bluish shadows could help too. If you're feeling that it's a bit too flat,… -
Re: Sketchbook: Luxap
Did the textures on the ferns in the last couple of days, as well as some testing within a small environment as well. Got some good feedback on the ferns already, seed to put some more time into the SSS part of the texture, so that's where I'll be spending my time on next Also spent some time on a water shader I still had… -
Re: The Yawning Portal [UE4]
Here are a couple of my latest assets. I was able to make them pretty quickly! I have started another project with a few of my friends making a game so that will be taking some of time away from this project. But I will not abandon it completely! Here are some candles for the bedroom which will be the primary light source… -
Re: Realism in for CG Characters, How
No, it's not true. For one, how do you scan someone who doesn't exist? Most CG characters are fictional, idealized people. What you need is a very talented and experienced artist to sculpt the head and paint the skin texture. Fortunately we have one, Karoly Porkolab, and he can do this: Then what our shading/lighting/comp… -
Re: Project: Infinitesimals - An Indie Game Art Development Log
Thanks Teroniz well, here's the next little snippet... So. very recently I enlisted the help of an artist with very strong knowledge of insects by the name of Eric Keller. It's quite likely you've seen his work as a Gnomon instructor amongst other things! Here's a work in progress engine shot of his first creation: A… -
Re: [WIP] Fantasy Crystal (Critique Please)
Thank you for your post @Sunray! I think I know what you mean. So you think, i have to redo the HighPoly and reconstruct the mid-/lowpoly to a more smoothe gem? Well I tryed the oposit. The stones are more round and soft and the crystal is more hard edged. At the moment, i try nothing to do with shaders. I want to release… -
Re: One Piece anime character:Luffy sculpt
A 'better' renderer than mental ray may not be what you want. If this is a game character you want to present it in real-time such as UDK, Cryengine or Marmoset toolbag. And yes there are some skin shaders floating around, video games do indeed use lots of different shaders thats why there are technical artists, they makes… -
Re: Need opinions about my foliage for UE4
I think a proper normal map would help much more. The way you make the normal map isn't a "baking" but for what you would want to do, you don't need baking. I would put those textures in like Substance designer or something like Bitmap to material and play with the sliders until it gives you nice humps for the shapes of… -
Question: Current / next gen specs for characters
For clarification (since I've been getting many different opinions from people) what constitutes a character as being next gen? At the bare minimum, what does the mesh / tex require? I've been understanding it as: Mesh: 4000 ~ 7000 range (I've heard 10,000 range but isn't that more for fighting games and such?) Minimum…
