It actually depends on what your target is. This concept art is from a videogame, and given the size of the object it would never require that many texture sets, even if it was a hero prop game asset. If it was for a vfx it might be acceptable for very high detailed closeups. As a game prop I would imagine the lead to ask…
Hey everyone, thanks for the feedback on this piece — the anatomy critique on the foot was correct, so I went back and fixed it. I've updated the image in the original post with the corrected version. Quick note on my workflow, since it came up in the comments: I work with AI generation as a starting point and do extensive…
Thanks for the feedback! I agree about the lines; I'm working on those! And the brush strokes, which I only recently started using. The cassette player prop is my latest work; I plan to continue using this technique. I'm very inspired by Arcane's style; I want to do something in the same vein.
And I'm back.. yet again! First thing that I wanna tell is, that Gul'Dan bust resulted in something I didn't actually expected, who had the genius Idea to try and find some references directly in the game? ME! (what a pathetic excuse) Let's say a few months of my life were wasted in WoW classic again. Anyway, after…
Hey bud, I broke into the industry without having gone to school, and by just following tutorials. Its definitely doable. Its all about the portfolio and portfolio direction. Right now, your portfolio says "product rendering", which you could lean into. I'm not 100% sure but I'd assume someone who is good at producing…
Why do we have to "normalize" our normal maps? Here's an example that hopefully helps illustrate it! Notice how the lighting is messed up in the edited normal map. You can't see the windows anymore on the dome and donut, and even the flat background is reflecting the wrong colors. This came up in my last post; I shared…
Hi Guys Im having some probs with masks. (see image below) Bear in mind this isn't game spec so anything goes.But the dials must animate,to do this I was gonna use animated textures. Im basically getting this horrid black line around my shaders,my current set-up is solide White gradient in the diffuse slot and a 32-bit…
Before i critique just want to mention.. For years when posting anything art related i would never really give critique's or feedback (mostly due to my own self-doubt) but i feel it's about time i learn to show more of my own art and to not only take criticism but to also learn to try an give better constructive criticism…
Hi everyone! We’re a group of final-year students from the University of Hertfordshire. We’re creating a sci-fi cinematic trailer for our game SHIFT in Unreal Engine, and we’ll be documenting our process and progress in this thread with regular updates.Feedback on anything (story beats, environment art, lighting, camera…
Hey all, this is what I'm currently working on, an updated version of Ocarina of Times Kakariko Village. I chose it because I friggin love this game and want to see it brought up to current gen standards. Here's an imgur link to an album which contains these pictures http://imgur.com/a/sqG6j/kakariko_village Environment…
