media outlets such as FOX "news" that does 80% of the fear mongering and war mongering and are in bed with gun profiteers like NRA. it goes hand in hand. FOX promotes fear, and NRA promotes guns to "deal" with that fear. in reality, there isnt much to fear in this country. people here have it real good and grow up in a…
I think your lighting/shadowing could be improved a lot. Right now you don't have enough ambient light, especially under your tree line. The shadows are just black. I'd suggest you remove the cast shadows from your ground foliage completely, your grass texture is really dense and with cast shadows turned on it just looks…
I managed to make all the changes I wanted but I still have a piece of code to correct. Currently if you select a bone in the viewport, the popup Skintools don't follow. You have to select the bone in Skintool's list to change the weight of a vertex. I'm looking since yesterday, but I feel that it's beyond my capacity with…
hey guys. I'm not sure why I haven't updated this, because I have been doing stuff. maybe to spite vig. just kidding here's a couple things. colored my friend's eye quick drawing of a dwarf for the hell of it another fantasy type elf paladin thing that I never finished - practicing linework: apparently never finished or…
OK, so how about we try something here. I've seen this done on several other boards and it seems to be a pretty damn good learning tool, from what I can tell. Do a weekly challenge with "loose" limitations. Example would be: an elf with a 2500 poly budget, 1 512x512 map, bump and spec optional. I see this as an opportunity…
@Yozora - Its all good I was just curious what your thoughts were. Im all about the crits, only way to get better. The faces are based on the concept I was working from, I can understand the thought though. The chaos mount is basically ridden by the ultimate evil badasses, and they like trophies.. especially dwarf and elf…
Hey guys, it's an honor to be with you fellow artists! I would really like feedback on my portfolio: https://nads_art.artstation.com/. I kinda cramped up this whole year learning everything to make a full AAA character and I'm wondering if my portfolio can get me a mentor or a job? Maybe as a junior artist but I don't put…
if you rig them humanoid (humanoid system) you need to be sure it is matching exactly its conventions. As a good starting point you can go to mixamo and download a humanoid rigged character as template. Everything else you need to configure in the import config mode of the IK and humanoid section of the importer. if you…
This is a really good looking fur! I was already familiar with the shell technique, but yours looks particularly good due the care in adjusting each shell maps and the height map usage. I gotta say I'm itching to recreate a few steps in your breakdown using Blender geonodes to automate them. 😂 Edit: I gave the node setup a…
This is great critique @Noren, thanks a lot for taking your time to type it out. You are right, as the beauty shots were the parts I struggled with the most, with many iterations being made. It really was hard to pose and light the model while maintaining a consistent and natural look across all materials. I did use the…
