Re: Character Art for Project Phoenix (Nekrova Team)
Hi @Aydhe I'm excited to see your progress of the character. It'd be nice to see the concept piece you're aiming to replicate. Regarding critiques on the anatomy, the upper chest/ribcage looks a little off. It seems to be bulging out too much. The wrists seems like they could be thickened up a bit. The sternocleidomastoid… -
Re: The Beast - The Stoff
Agree the fur is 'hella' dark on my end also, looks good though. If you have f.lux on i found it does interfere greatly with color results and i forget i even have it on, that might be it, i made a photoshop layout that replicates the results 90% or so that flux does to the lighting on your screen. I noticed this on a… -
Re: Maya Transparency wont display in viewport
Are you using a laptop by any chance? What video card do you have? If you have just recently started seeing these issues, have you updated or changed your drivers lately? With problem A, I've never had that much of an issue with alpha showing up in the viewport, but my workflow involves using flattened .TGA's. Try using… -
Re: best tools for duplicating boot drive data ?
i second using linux's DD, just use knoppix - free, nothing to install, all you do is boot from a knoppix DVD or USB stick and get to it. you can clone partitions or entire harddrives and it will replicate them block by block exactly. there is a graphical tool included in knoppix as well (GParted ?) to display all… -
Re: Baking Everything Behind Transparent Materilal into Diffuse?
Yes it's kind of along the lines of what I'm after. I guess there's a very fine line between what can be rendered through real transparent geometry and what can be made with texture manipulation, even as I come closer to exactly what I was after it looks a lot like something that could easily be mocked up in substance… -
Re: maya additive and multiplicitive materials
Ah ok. Well, exactly how important is it to you that what you get in a render is replicated in the viewport? 'cos (as Im sure you know) mayas viewport rendering capabilities just about suck. I think that when I die I will still be angry about the fact that I need 3 entirely different shaders for normal mapping for… -
Re: Shell Modifier equivalent for Maya...
Whargoul: Well, yeah, and I mean that is the problem. If you do any edits to the base topology then the split ring etc. will get messed up because the number of edges (and indices) will change. This is what is so good about Max's system, and it's what I'm trying to replicate - what you described here is why I want a… -
Re: The Bi-Monthly CHARACTER ART Challenge | June - July
So, this is my first go at joining in with this challenge. Everyone is doing such a good job, I hope I can produce something worthy. I'm also excited to challenge myself and improve my techniques. I've made reasonable progress and am now onto re-topology. I also had a quick go at replicating the eye texture, (I know the… -
Re: An honest question as a new person
A bunch of great answers. I appreciate the feedback. @Brian "Panda" Choi I saw you mention that substance is an industry standard now, however my art style is more on the stylized hand-painted side. I read that 3DCoat excels in that type of art and that it's not as easily replicated in Substance. Is that true? I should… -
Re: Physically based rendering in games
The problem with real-world measruments, is that every engine take diffrent range of values. Some materiasl have real world reflectance of 5%. Ok. How about setting it in range from 0-100 0-1 or 0-255 ? What does it even mean for and engine implementation ? Even worse case you can't setup it directly, but you have to paint…
