Re: BMW Z4 GT3 - Practice
Ah yes looking good so far! Some stuff I've learned in my 7 years of creating digital 3D Cars: First, find real pictures of the car. If you search long enough, you can find perfect front, back and side pictures of almost any car. Only use blueprints as a guide because they are way more inaccurate then a picture ;) Take a… -
Re: UT level editing: lighting info?
Yeah butcher, I bake lighting all of the time, and understand the concept. But the way UT handles lighting with vertex lighting is just not my preference. It is a real pain to have to subdivide my mesh to living hell just to get it to light correctly. Maybe you could explain a bit more about how UT does vertex lighting. If… -
Re: "Street Shark", etc Brainstorm: Blizzard Student Character Art Contest
You sound like me. For me it's usually not being able to come up with an idea that's the problem, but it's like I can't seem to picture it clearly in my mind for more than a quick second. It usually happens to me in situations exactly like this one where: -had an idea -had a pretty clear picture of what you wanted… -
Re: Is it worth the time? the evolution debate
In a 'pure form' maybe. But go read Plato if that is how you want to structure a society- the fact is, organized religion involves a caste of individuals that have power and are privileged in their communication with god and instruction of practice. The 'corruption' you define below is an obvious course of events in ANY… -
Re: Working On New Modelling Software
In my humble opinion 3d modelling soft itself is quite ok now. Easy to use and quick except certain complex scenarios , those need to be procedural and adjustable on the fly . If Ai could suggest node flow . a math formula to accomplish certain thing it would be nice indeed. Texture soft on the other hand is monstrously… -
Re: I need some advice on my portfolio and jobs seeking.
Asking for feedback is sensible - the downside is that occasionally I have some free time to give it ;) I don't see any glaring technical problems with your work. There are two main things you need to improve on from my perspective (its been 5 years since I was last hiring artists at a first party studio so might be a bit… -
Magic Beanstalk Environment (UE5)
Just finished this piece in UE5.4 Based on a watercolor by Mateusz Urbanowicz II for his book Tokyo at Night. After I replicated the original image I decided I wanted to take it a bit further and put my own spin on it. Idea for the magic beanstalk came after watching the anime Blue Seed and I wanted to make a scene with… -
Buying a nice rig for 3d modeling and game engines
Hey all. I'm currently looking into getting a PC for 3D modeling (3DS Max & Mudbox), game engines (Unity mainly, though I might start looking into a few others if I had the system for it) and maybe a few games. For games I mostly use Xbox, so I don't mind dropping down the settings a bit, but I don't want to be ripped off… -
Re: Shape splattering with a random to non-random gradient?
IMO why couldn't it be just "copy instanced" command for a node duplication with ability to make certain parameter "unique" "single user" whatever. Blender style maybe. With some highlighting of nodes using shared parameters. Plus a certain panel where shared parameters would be collecting automatically . Same node… -
Re: WIldman Kickstarter
Rev, im pretty sure the same media called Romney unelectable for a long time, and he won the primary and came pretty close in the popular vote -- group-think only works if it's an idea that's palatable to the group. It was easy to believe RPaul was unelectable because 30% of the country was horrified that he wanted to…
