Decided to take a break from texturing and model the laser/flashlight attachment. Still have some wires to run off it, and a canvas/Velcro type peace for the grip. Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Fixed some of the proportions a bit and refined some of the shapes. Almost done with the high-poly. Just need to make the laser and the holographic sight and fix the grip. Then onto the low poly.
I should have elaborated. When a morph target is stored the Layer brush gains a special behavior where new strokes are applied to the stored MT rather than being additive with previous strokes. On the left, Layer with no MT. On the right. Layer with stored MT. No erasing, just three strokes each.
Do you have a general breakdown on your textures in terms of the layers/groups of layers? For myself, I feel like I'm still behind on what it means to properly approach realistic texturing like this and I wonder if it's because I'm not approaching it with a relatively standard template of "have these layers of detail in…
Hey! Two week later, back with quite a few changes 😊 I decided to take the plunge and re-make the hair from scratch, as I really started disliking it the more time went on. I decided to get roughly inspired by a technique found here (used in Final Fantasy if I recall correctly), and tried making it work with my skill…
I believe that it was required to post WIP on polycount as well as RealtimeVFX.com so to make things clear there is the current effect: https://youtu.be/K5QBjGdqVMc and this was my WIP post: https://realtimevfx.com/t/laser-beam-vfx-contest/3855
var padding:int = 4; duplicate the layer, add a gaussian blur filter with {padding:int} amount. No duplicate that new layer like 10 times and merge them together (ctr + j). Lastly put this merged layer under your original and you should have a extended pixel padding size of {padding:int} pixels.
@ StephenVyas When it comes to doing your animations do you work with layers as in say you have a walk cycle, have a layer for the feet, then the hips, arms then head? or if its a reasonable sized walk cycle (lets say 24 frames) do you find it easier to just have the one layer?
If you really want ergo: http://www.maltron.com/ Laser keyboard is the way to go, you can put that bad boy on your kitty and it'll be purring all day. currrrrrrr purrrrrrr
