Re: Understanding tangent and binormal workflows between programs?
Still a very confusing topic for me but from what I learned is that most programs now, like Substance, Xnormal, and Knald all use Mikkt space as the tangent space calculator to bake normal maps.

Re: Gentry Farmhouse and Tree (UDK)

They both deteriorate somewhat natural look of photogrammetry scanned… -
Re: Futuristic Russian Helicopter (Hind inspired)
Joeriv: haha I might be one of the few 3d artists who actually enjoys UVs (at least the final fitting to 0-1 part). It's def a giant puzzle! Teh Splatt, Powermaennchen: Thx! Battlecow: Too kind! I actually liked my original version of the cockpit framing more but there was one big problem: It wasn't functional. Oops!… -
