Re: What books should 3d artist read about lightning and anatomy?
Regarding anatomy, most attempts to make it for just a 3D artist audience is A. limiting the amountt of money you can make and B. it's not just applicable to 3D or even just a few areas of art, etc. I personally recommend Figure Drawing For All It's Worth by Andrew Loomis. Something tells me you knowing where muscles… -
Re: What is everyone's methods for baking/cage editing these days?
B-but muh 90 degrees corners...Don't you get some artifacts at those sharp places? I thought EQ had proven in the thread you made that that method did not work with complex shapes, since it'd skew them? I still use xNormal with averaged cages to bake my stuff, but I'm super eager to start changing my ways. XNormal not… -
Re: WIP: Building Environment
Ok, grabbed some random stuff off of cgtextures Ignore the multiply part, I thought there was a bug where I had to load a blank texture in even if I wasn't using it, turns out I needed Blend2blahblah selected (circled) Here's the tree textures > texture A, B and the overlay (I it in both overlay slots so it overlays the… -

MSD analysis for maya

For anyone want a good 3d model this is a must ot have. https://youtu.be/PwiVDEOUQxI The link on my gumroad on video description on youtube. -
Re: Baking pipeline with Substance Painter/Marmoset. Opinions needed.
I know, but as i mentioned it leads to hungreds of texture sets for every model parts, and merging them by those TSC utility can cause artifacts, probably bacause of dillation (but maybe i just doint something wrong) and anyway its not great to have that tons of files and merge them all the time if you change something.… -
Re: overlapped polys : baking trouble?
The cages will likely intersect causing baking issues. When creating your LP you should try and conjoin as many meshes as possible, unless A: Needs to be animated or B: its at a very strange complex angle. Conjoining LP meshes will reduce the amount of UV seams and allow for greater texel resolution and make the texturing… -
Re: [FINAL] Historical - Two Tone 1941 Blue Steel
I took a few more days to finalize my entry. Decided to diversify the patterns a bit for other vehicles. the t34 still follows the original reference, but other vehicles have different patterns on them. Here are screenshots of the whole pack: Making sure the patterns were meeting correctly at the seams was a real b****h,… -
Re: PC-CSGO AWP BARRAGE WIP {Finished}
Decided that I'm pretty much done with the overall look, just doing some tweaks. Also did the backside so it connects with the other. Also tweaked the Alpha, making the barrel a little more protected against the wear. Not much tho. Ingame Pics using a FT Model .30Float. So a average drop will be very scratchy and a rare… -
Re: Bamboo multitouch pen tablet?
Okay one question. is it all relative, like a laptop trackpad (pushing the cursor progressively) or is it absolute like an iphone touchpad? More specifically : could one tape some kind of transparent or opaque grid/layout on it, and tap certain areas to activate certain tools or shortcuts? (imagine if the icons in the…
