Re: How long do your 3D projects take to complete?
That's what I've started to pick up on. When I first really got into 3D and making ambitious projects, I felt like the time that it took was just "baked" into the project itself. i.e. you want to make a real-time character? well then it takes xyz amount of hours no matter what. Now I've realized that you could make a… -
Re: [WIP] Aircraft altimeter
This is correct, lowpoly wireframes for games should be, well, lowpoly. There is no point in having edgeloops that add nothing to the mesh. I have a breakdown of one of my projects here on polycount where I go into detail what's important for a lowpoly, you can check it out here Your lowpoly has a density mismatch between… -

Help With Sculpting Jewelry in ZBrush
I'm wondering if anyone has experience sculpting large amounts of necklaces and jewelry (Think Mr T amounts) in ZB? I'm working on a character right now that has a similar amount of jewelry as Mr T, but I'm just hitting a wall-- should I create a million links along splines in Maya then project those for a normal map, or… -
Re: Legalization by 2010?
Are you serious? As it stands, in order to become an alcoholic, you have to drink large amounts of alcohol over a long period of time. Chances are, you've never met the pot equivalent because: a) Only a small amount of the population takes pot, and b) Only a small amount of pot users take enough to qualify as being the… -
Re: need help with a cage issue
-At the bottom of the projection modifier enabled "shaded" first (makes it more clear) -Then the little arrrow next to "Push - amount", slide that up untill the cage encompasses the highpoly. (you never want your cage to be 100% even/flush with the highpoly/lowpoly). (if you have shaded on, it will give a good view of it)… -
Re: portfolio props
512x512 isn't bad for your portfolio, as you want to show off your texturing skills. But depending on the game the amount of texture space you should use for that varies wildly. If it was a player-held prop, like say a third person game where you can beat people with it or throw it, 512x512 would be okay. If it's just… -

Re: theoretical pbr question, how does energy conservation work?
alright i read those links, so here is my visaulisation to make sure i understand; 1. specular 2. angle of the specular reflection, based on the glossiness of the surface. if its wide its more spread out and thus weaker (energy conservation) 3. diffuse different materials have different amounts of specular reflections and… -
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 inspired Game Environment, Third-Year Uni Project
I made a little trim and decal sheet, nothing crazy. I more wanted to test that they were compatible with my layered material system. I also quickly modelled a side table and a wall mounted monitor. I was given some good advice about the RGB and ID masks (ID mask can be way lower res and also the RGB masks can be lower res…
