Hello everyone, Here is a low-poly hand painted sword that I made based on a concept image I found online. I was hoping that I could get some critiques on what I could improve on. The demon head wasn't added due to time constraints and I noticed that I could have merged a few of the UVs to make my life easier after I was…
Hey @ddgurto that's a great update! The scene already reads much better, good job on that! In the first image it's still a bit unclear to me which one the focal point should be. is it the ornamental wall or is it the pillar. Currently the sun is shining on both of them separately. I'd try to have a clear indication where…
Diffuse = midtones Specular = highlights Normal = shadows that's generally the way I look at it... it's more complicated than that of course, but... yeah. diffuse is the natural color of the surface if everything was evenly lit... most everything should be in the same or similar value as to not compete with the lighting of…
Hello ! I have a problem with a project on blender. I have 2 objects (a character and his weapon) and each of them has been atached to amatures and weight paint. The goal is to make animations like run attack and then import the mesh on unity. So I want to join the objects inside the blender project to avoid multiple…

Hey, so I was recommended that you guys may be able to help out with a project I'm working on for my sister's 14th birthday. She has an original cartoon character she's created, and my parents and I are interested in 3D printing a model of him for her as a present. I have access to the 3D printing technology but all of my…
I think what you're seeing is less a hand painted style / technique and more the results of the technical limitations of the time. I'd guess the art direction was aiming for realism in the texturing and shading, but low texture resolutions resulted in some exaggerated shapes and details. Probably some light information…
There can be a pretty significant difference between what bakes/packs well and a layout that is painting friendly. If you do a lot of painting, you can use two separate UV channels. UV1 bake/packs well, UV2 painter friendly. Then transfer UV2 to 1. I tend to do this with ultra low poly meshes that are mostly diffuse only,…
Hey so I'm attempting to model a sword/dagger really more so to test and play with hand painting and texturing. I'll post WIP just because I know it is good to get myself out there and ask for help. Using this as more of a learning experience. Anyways are there any modeling tricks or anything that will make unwrapping and…
