Hey guys, I am currently working on a tiling cobblestone texture in Zbrush. The background plane is sort of a placeholder with some noise for now. I will add more detail and smallter stones in there ;) As you can see the stones at the top and bottom have not been worked on. I am going to swap those for some premade ones…
Hi there, I have been working on a project which is more of an environment piece and I am looking for some feedback to try and improve the scene. Bad lighting - textures - broken Normals - anything like that. The idea is that you can select different styles and materials of a pool. The pool should be the focus in the…
Hello there! Thanks for taking the time to view my posts. I've been working on a Glock 19 model for a few days now, and finally got to a point where I can ask for feedback. I'm looking for critiques on the model, the renders, AND the presentation (trying to make good habits). I'm going for a photo-real SWAT pistol for a…
the costume design and wrinkles turned out very nice. from what i remember about leprechauns they were fairy cobblers, or shoe makers, and wore elaborate clothing, red coats and big buckles on their belts and shoes. their legend also includes a darker cousin that kidnapped children by swapping an infant in the night with a…
Hi oxblood :) It seems I think it will be cool for you add some surface details on you walls :) As for textures normally for scifi hallways I just slap on a scratched metal texture on everything that is metal on my scene. And if it doesn't look good I'll swap it some brushed metal texture. Those two are my initial "go-to"…
@zachagreg thanks again. I'm going to try and finish something all the way through the pipeline in the coming weeks on my own and using tutorials. I'll post it in the relevant forum and start that thread. I hit a snag today trying to bake in Substance Painter. Tomorrow I'll try and resolve it by remodeling, googling, and…
I wish this fight was happening 5-7 years ago when both fighters were in their prime, but I'm glad it's finally happening. That said, I can't help but feel it's gonna be a rather dull affair that goes the distance with Floyd winning or maybe a draw (to start hyping the rematch). It will have to be a great fight to make it…
Hi, I'm new to working with shaders in max and could use a little help. I'm trying to follow Andrew Smiths DOTA2 workshop tutorial and have hit a snag. when I try and down load the fx shader file for max, all I get is a new window with some code. is that normal? do I need to save that code and copy it in max someplace?
When you run out of GPU RAM it's got to go to system RAM. Then you will get slow downs. If you have 512MB you will swap out to system RAM much faster than if you have 6GB of GPU RAM. GPU RAM is for storing evrything from your screen's frame buffer the 2d AND 3d brushes AND the geometry/canvas that you are painting and…
I think just getting yourself an Orbweaver would be a lot more convenient and ergonomic. You can bind the keys differently for different programs, which on top of being convenient, also means that you can customize the hotkeys for programs that normally don't let you. The profile swaps automatically based on the program…
