Re: MACH Joystick [WIP] [Feedback]
Overall this is a pretty faithful recreation of those old Apple joysticks. I like the small personal touches you added to it such as the missing rubber foot and the deeper scrapes along the bottom as well. While this piece is already pretty good, I think you can push it further. The textured plastic body has the same… -
Re: The Throne Room - Handheld Environment
Otixa: Haha just realised who you are! ^^ I loved your piece, watched it from the start.. how did you do the candles, was trying to get mine close to yours but ended up just texturing the flame on to save draw calls.. wasn't sure if you'd done the same! .. Tried to incorperate what you've said a bit on this recent update,… -
Render to Texture and UnrealEd
Sorry about asking such a vauge question. I'm having trouble with the Render to Texture stuff. I don't know if its my ignorance on the subject or if I'm doing something wrong, but it's not coming out right. I'm mostly interested in the LightMap so I can import the mesh into UnrealEd (Realtime2/UT2k3...hopefully 2k4 soon… -
Re: 3D Generalist Portfolio Critique
In terms of stability both film and games are in a reeeeeaaaally scary place right now and competitiveness is through the roof and then some. If you're in a position of stability right now then it might be worth it to think about focusing on where you'd like to land a few years down the road and take this time to build a… -
Re: Cosmonautica - 3D work
The kitchen portholes look rather bland at the moment; I think they'd look better as star filled windows, with an occasional passing starship. The square nuts don't look right at all; if you can't replace them with a simple texture and you're polygon budget has already been spent, then I'd replace the 8 cubes with 6… -
Re: Is it possible to get a good bake without support loops?
@wildrun If its taboo i am sure someone who is an elite in the knowledge will come around but this guy: https://polycount.com/discussion/comment/2774710#Comment_2774710 Seems to have the solution to the issue you bring up and that is to "do it yourself" & by that i mean "Hand-paint" the issue away. Then it answers your… -
Re: KRISS Vector
@osk thank you, you nailed it... That is what I'm trying to do. The spec map is way off right now. @mr_ace thanks for the feedback. I think this might be even lighter then what I had before:poly122: How dark should I paint base layer for the black areas (60-65% gray)? RE: all black This might sound stupid, but I like… -
Re: Think Tank Training Center 4-month Mentorship 3D Environment Project (looking for feedback)
Hey the environment is looking nice so far. I think the biggest thing this needs is better lighting and atmosphere; it's pretty flat right now. Put your work side-by-side with Chris Noble's concept, and see if you can match the mood better. Adding a sun light source would help a lot. Also see how Chris added atmospheric… -
[UDK] mossy forest
Spent about 2 days on this so far, its my goal to finish it by Friday. Its a screen grab straight for UDK, no tweaks in photoshop. I've never really lit any outdoor scenes from scratch. I'm just trying to get it portfolio ready. I'm missing a few model details like the knots, branches, limbs, and fallen trees. I plan on… -
Re: Advice on picking a specialization.
If you don't have a specific specialization you prefer, then I would listen to Vertrucio's advice and go in the direction of considering an environment position, or something adjacent to modelling, such as a lighting artist. Right now the job market is in a extremely bad state for people trying to break in into the…
