Re: Man anatomy - crtis
Definitely looks better but there are still things that are off. Let me ask you this, are you using any reference? Because if you're not, that's your first mistake. Your sculpt really looks like an ecorche model right now rather than a human being with skin and fat over him. At this stage, I wouldn't so worry about… -
Re: An Investigation into Modular Environment (Victorian) - Dissertation progress thread
Thanks everyone for the kind answers!! :D I hope you like everything and if you have any suggestion or question feel free to ask. I've been working for some days on the theory part of the thesis (most boring part, but it's important to research methods). Besides that, I really wanted to do some tests with the road and… -
Re: What am i doing wrong? Simple High to low poly...
EarthQuake: thanks for your reply, and i didnt realise that by having the models touching / interecting each other would cause errors, which is the only thing ive done here different as apposed to my other models where i have had success. The reason for the black areas that dont make sense might be down to me playing with… -
Re: Books for Learning?
I highly recommend Eat3D's DVDs, especially the UDK/Character production ones. Also if you're brand new to 3D modeling, especially sculpting, I'd suggest downloading Sculptris as it's free, very intuitive and is light on the technical side. 3D packages can be very intimidating but they're like photoshop, they're built to… -
Re: Why hasn't this been mentioned yet? Blender 2.43
I've been using the latest version for about a week. It kicks ass! The UV unwrapping is better than ever. (a very important feature for in-game modeling) The new sculpting tool is surprisingly robust. It probably won't win over any regular users of ZBrush or Mudbox, but its fantastic for anyone who already uses Blender.… -
Re: Alien Cave Creature - (normal mapping practice)WIP *DELETED*
Seeing as noone else has posted here I'll jump in. Normal mapping is pretty streight forward these days, the toughest bit being getting your cage set up nicely. What I would sugest you do is work on your sculpting skills before tinkering with normal maps. Download Arsh's base meshs and any other good SDK/free material you… -
Re: [Finished] Stylized Sea Coast Temple
Alright so I think we've reached a final product, I just need to correct that one shader. Overall I learned a lot, especially how Blender deals with recalculating normals, the swap from 3ds max to blender was not a graceful one. Some takeaways * Macronormals are a super cool concept that I picked up from Halo, and then… -
Re: Hitting a wall with learning anatomy and characters.
Having looked at your portfolio and the Noctis studied the feedback you have been given is pretty accurate. I think you need to take a step back and evaluate your work and what are the major things that need to be worked on. Lets take the two things mentioned in your post, Anatomy and texturing. For now Ide recommend you… -
Re: Photogrammetry Question
Hello iRoller, yeap, you have to model/sculpt within 3D application you like, yeap, like the old, golden days! :) ZBrush has interesting tools, like the one for closing holes. I could suggest you to use also to use www.meshlab.net which is useful to handle scanned meshes and it's also free for commercial use. You could… -
Re: Fine art schools?
Thanks for all the info guys. DKK, I'm free this weekend. Call me. /makes finger phone Firebert, I've been looking at SCAD a bit and it seems good, but do you know anything about their drawing, painting and sculpting classes? I'm interested in really developing my line, shading, anatomy and other basic skills, so I want…
