Re: dsa
@BilguunEscape "To be honest, anything that can just give me chance to start you know. I just want to be part of a team." Aside from entertainment I'm curious if you'd thought of exploring other sources for CG derived work opportunities? (naming a few) * Military - training sims * Architecture Viz * TV promotion or… -
The Artist, a personal character art project
The Artist is a personal practice work where I explore a woman sitting with a playful expression near her artwork. The room is lit by sunlight coming through the window. I did this project, and went back to the basics of 3D art after 2 years of only technical work. The lighting consist of one HDRI and several area lights… -
Re: [WIP] Lords of the Fallen - Pieta - need feedback on UV's
Typically you'd overlay tiling detail maps in-engine and/or secondary UVs to get things like fabric weave. I'm not a character artist so I don't know if 8 sets is too many, but my gut says it is :lol: You probably want to look into layered materials and detail maps if you're unfamiliar with the concepts. I get that its a… -
Re: Newbie question about mirrored UVs
My apologies, if anyone can move the thread, I would appreciate it. Thanks for your response. Yeah, they are stacked. Basically I had half the object, duplicated, scaled in -1 in X, and merged it with the original. Is this the wrong approach? The thing that only one side is paintable might be something that is related to… -
Zbrush spotlight - let's talk about texture quality
Fist of all, my workflow: I sculpt my highpoly model in Zbrush, then I polypaint it with the realistic textures (via spotlight), then I export HP model to xnormal where I bake "Highpoly Vertex Colors" into diffuse map. My lowpoly model is of course properly uv mapped. Now the question: Did any of you guys find a way how to… -
Re: [3DSMAX] Free form Splines (keep snapping to grid)
You know a lot of useful maxscripts. I use many script (RappidTools, Rappa Tools, Polytools 3D Marius Silaghi etc). Do you maybe have a list of blogs/authors with useful script :smile: ? -
Re: Red Dead Redemption
Yeah that doesn't really make sense. Instead you should be able to use a button to mark points on the target before coming out of dead eye to snap in however many shots you've marked. -
Re: Best texture software for games texturing
Photoshop is bread'n'butter. Mari is getting a foothold from what I hear. ZBrush is also pretty wide spread. I'd say more widespread than Mari because unlike Mari it's not an extra license to buy. Mudbox is also a good contender. A lot comes down to what software the studio has already bought. If they have tons of Mudbox… -
Re: 3D concept art workflows, questions from a student
Your thread title should probably be something more like "Mari and Zbrush workflow?" to get more eyes on this. I haven't used Mari so I can't help much. Also this kind of art isn't often called "concept art" in game development, because making photo-real art is a very time-consuming process, not suited to the fast… -
Re: Why is the game industry model broken?
Yes. Last year all we got were sequels. I was disappointed, thought 'hey, not much happened this year, but 2012 will kick ass!!!' Well 2012 is almost over now and it's been the same story, except this time it's harder to be optimistic. Many big companies aren't making the returns that they expect, studios are closing or…
