@Joopson ah, I must have missed the setting to fill in holes of UV shells. But what Im looking for the Maya UV packer to do is basically what gnoop mentioned above with UVPackmaster2. Its basically laying out the UVs in the most optimized way possible with as little empty space. I dont think Maya can do that, unless theres…
Risking being too blunt here but... You spend most of your time fighting weird quirks, and your experiences are not universal. Have you considered this kind of thing might be either user error or a bug? Have you ever just... asked if something is intentional and filed a report? Plenty of people have no issue working with…
You must upload higher resolution renders and perhaps your texture sheets From what you've posted I think the main problem is the tank part. The panels seem too blobby for metal. The shapes should be much sharper, the edges also look like photoshop bevelling. There also seems like a lot of variation in your texel density.…
Whenever I upload a sculpt pic from Zbrush I whack an AutoContrast on it in Photoshop to bring out the details. It obviously made the turqoise far more vibrant than it originally was. Here is the original for comparison. The pink is pretty much just pink though! Vrav was kind enough to PM me a quick paintover addressing…
@CodeferBlue hehe, old tavern must be one of the most common "my first environment" projects I noticed :D . It's my concept, but inspiration is taken from the reference images I shared in first post (found on artstation, pinterest etc). I don't think you need that much skill for this environment. I have basic/intermediate…
Alright here is an update on the wireframe. I think I got most of the fixes in, the one thing I'm unsure about is the kiln, the topology became quite excessive, but I've been told that it's fine. Due to time constraints I must start unwrapping this and getting going on the texturing. However there is still time to add in…
[ QUOTE ] Ive read that lovely little post by Ninja and all the little Xenohpic fun, but frankly everyone is too involved in this issue,albiet an important issue there is a more pressing issue at hand,that is Iran. [/ QUOTE ] Indeed, we must learn to properly focus the great political influence of...a 3d art site. You guys…
Cool project, fighter jet cockpits are super interesting! :) Are you doing this in subd? I'd recommend to go back and redo your blockout. You wrote that you aim for accuracy yet most proportions are really off. Here are just some of the things that I noticed after looking through some reference photos. I think you went…
Where’s everyone at? We’re just outside Boston, we have a white Christmas this year, just a dusting but it’s nice and cold, <22f/-5c. Frozen beaver dam:
Hi there! I just got a new project for school and will be updating here. Any critiques are welcome! Main reference: I have a few more that detail out how the mech is made, might post them later if asked :) Requirements: Art must be packaged in UDK package that can be opened and viewed on other machines Model must not…
