Hello! For some background: I'm a student (recently turned 15 years old) in Ontario who just joined high school grade 9 nearly 6 months ago. After just becoming really fascinated by Artstation work, I decided, about 8 months ago, that I wanted to work to become a professional artist (currently interested in both 2D and 3D)…
I think it looks great! Some things I noticed, and keep in mind that I'm not super-familiar with your references, so some of that might be due to those. The front of the lower legs is very hard to read, the shapes get lost there a bit. The leather cloth feels like it was meshshmoothed. The borders are very clean and have…
just started using Mari and I'm trying to figure out projection painting. When I load the image it comes out pixelated though, what settings do I need to make a 4k texture map? ^This is the result I'm getting with the settings above, when you can see below that my image is clearly a much higher resolution. I really can't…
Heads up to everybody, the perspective in this is actually quite twisted in some spots, especially for the support lattice of the dome. Block out very carefully, and keep an eye on the spacing between buildings as you go deeper into the image. You don't want to know how warped I had to make the rear of the dome to make it…
To clarify, IBL alone is typically not a good solution for lighting in games (though it can be in offline renderers which do full on ray-traced radiosity which means you get shadows from ibl). Most modern game engines do something like this: Base IBL for the sky/clouds Local IBL that is generated from the actual level…
Hooray for Double Fine and for EA. EA has really been doing some great, original shit lately. I don't know what has inspired them to try and move in this direction, but I really hope that we continue to see more of it :)
Hey everyone, I am running a quick survey about pipelines in VFX and games. It takes around 2 minutes and comes with a chance to win some great rewards worth over $1500 from our amazing sponsors. If you’ve ever worked with pipelines, I’d love your input. Check out the details (and the rewards) here:…
Hey there! Didn't have a ton of time today on lunch but was able to quickly paint over some general thoughts that I feel you could push even further with your next iteration of lighting. Overall, the image was feeling pretty flat and you've got some great shapes in the room that would thrive off of some lighting variation.…
Log time peoples. So I struggle with the back side of the house since I have no reference for it and for that reason I was putting it aside. I know its going to be a back porch with a stone fence but I wasn't sure what type of building to put there. A forth dome is going to be an overkill so it has to be something else. A…
