Re: Optiniums works
The Venom 'render' is actually a screengrab of the realtime viewport in Keyshot 5 after letting it sit for about 30 secs. I use a translucent material but adjust the properties, surface to grey and sub-surface to black and pretty much 0 translucency, sounds pretty odd but that material just renders slightly differently to… -
Re: Crysis - Aquarium Environment (WIP)
Yeah, I've already got the glass "water shader" working, but it doesn't feel complete without the caustics and the water surface at the top. I actually took one screenshot where I flipped my whole scene upside down above the ocean, then flipped it back in photoshop to give it the "appearance" of the water surface under… -

Re: ~eye of dragon~ sword
hehe "mr.Styles" In terms of the sword I'd say to study a few materials and match the surface properties a bit closer -- my eye is having difficulty with the scale and surfaces because it keeps seeing plastic mold and fake chromed metal. Maybe check out www.imageafter.com and find some referance pics of the metal type and… -
Re: Freaks & Geeks

(MAYA 2020, nCloth) Make the tubes stick to the cubes on both ends
Hey guys :) I was experimenting with nCloth in Maya because I want to make the tube react naturally to the movements of the two cubes. However, the other end of the tube (ending in the smaller cube) does not stick to the surface of the cube. Do you guys know what settings I need to use in order to make the tube stick to… -
Normal vs Displacement maps
Hi all. Quick question, looking at artistic, not technical answers: Normal maps and displacement maps would seem to affect a lot of the same spots on a texture - would I be correct in understanding that while a displacement map is used to alter the height of the poly or micropoly, the normal map then provides the lighting… -
Zbrush Workflow Question
I've been developing a pretty solid workflow for modeling/sculpting hard surfaces and organic objects alike in Zbrush, mostly using masking, dynamesh master, and hard surface brushes, but I haven't figured out a good way to keep things "texture painting ready." Polygroups are the obvious choice but adding them in later on,… -
