This has bugged me for a while too. I generally find Cryengine and even Source engine to have a crisper more realistic look. Having Worked with UE3 for years now, I am growing very dissatisfied with the lighting and rendering tools. I'm very eagerly waiting for UE4, which I believe will move away from this. I think the…
I actually like using Blender to do my UVs, maybe I'm weird. I like that you can use the actual coordinates and snap to pixels of a given texture size. It's also easier for me to do things within the same application. You can mark all of your seams on the model like you'd do in anything else, the auto-unwrap works fine and…
Maybe starting with Modelling first before moving on to sculpting would be a good idea. People tend to see the cool stuff in ZBrush and comepletely ignore the necessary foundamentals to get there. Also dynamesh and subdivisions tend to be heavily misused by beginners. If you can't get some decent proportions with a block…
You can create planes between two splines using the cross section tool, then apply a surface modifier. Quickie tutorial: Create a spline line. In the spline menu, click "create line" and draw out another spline next to your first. Activate the cross section tool, click on the first spline and then the second. Apply the…
I have the feeling that no matter which 3D software you use, the grass is always greener on the other side I think. If Id start something new Id go with Modo tho, I have no clue but seems like they have everything and its on a good modern foundation that has future. Blender 2.8 also looks very cool but I assume the UI is…
wow! Thanks for all the kind words! Let me see if I have this forum syntax correct. @warby - I agree. I was really surprised not to see more higher quality alien art. It seems like a really good midlevel modeling challenge, and it's such a cool IP, you would think it would have more of a presence. There is one really…
Overclockers forums maybe, or Facebook groups for specialist tools e.g. Houdini Artists would be my suggestion. I doubt you'll have much luck on Facebook marketplace for such a powerful machine.
Hey all, So a few month ago I decided to start doing toon style stuff just to get away from my normal realistic texturing and was hoping to get feedback on how I can improve or just general feedback. Here are 2 speed videos I made the other day. chicken coop - [ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sA1HOxyS8QU"]chicken…
