Re: WIP showreel
AutopsySoldier: I'll be adding some music once I've got the pieces all setup correctly, I normally just pick some light orchestral music like something from the Ghibli soundtracks - very little chance of me adding sound effects though as I'm so rubbish at doing stuff like that I think I'd actually make it worse :) ru4it:… -
Re: [UE4][WIP] The trial
Nice atmosphere so far :) Hm, I would expect the grass at the bottom of trees to be more mossy and sparse, since it wouldn't get that much light. View in first image looked nicer to me, I guess because of the framing of the arc and the walls leading the way. It seems less balanced in latest shot, but I am sure it's subject… -
Re: UE4 - Project: Star Bounty
Level03D - Also new materials. Nothing too visually fancy compared to the snow and ice for today, just new materials once again ontop my pre-existing ones. Today I went for my grassy level, though you won't really see the ground as I have mostly littered the area with grass cards which also needs an upgrade, maybe next… -
Re: Trek-13 Shotgun
It might be the angle n88t, once my photoshop "unexpires" i'll get a render out of marmo on an extreme angle and you can really see the main spec area shine, but i guess you won't see the gun from that angle in game so i might have to bump it up even more. And yer gauss i actually went and looked at some guns, even with… -
Re: Tricky hard-surface object approaches
when i do this sort of thing i make the spline shape. and duplicate it. convert 1 shape to editable poly, this should give you 1 or 2 crazy n gons. Inset the editable polys faces, usually there are only 1 or 2 ngons. once i have the inset i clean up the interior ngons, topology isnt to much of an issue here as the inset… -
Re: Complete workflow in Z-Brush ? Advice needed
So wait... do you want to work in games? I am confused. IMO my advice: - Learn Zbrush while using C4D. It's really hard to learn two programs/processes at once. - Once you have a grasp on ZB learn Max better. Just start doing your base/edits in there for ZB. Almost no studios use C4D as far as I know. The ones that let you… -
Re: Padding issue
Yup, I agree that the results are better from Maya, but it bugs me since I need to use 3dsmax tangent basis (I baked once in Maya for the borders and once in Max for the rest). If I bake both in Maya and Max with 0 padding, the results are the same, there's that hard edge that shows up (top right screenshot). Only when… -
Re: Reference for drapery?
This is a problem I've run into more than once. CGtextures is ok for drapery reference, but Googling what you want is damn near impossible. Most cloth you look for is to sell some stupid patterned curtain with an image size that's way too small for texturing and you find yourself cutting bits and pieces and trying to warp… -
Re: Best program for product design output
If you're looking for more complex compositing options then you can render out specific passes. In general when i have a pre-rendered sequence to work on i do a pass for lighting, color, and specular. Once i have all those sequences i bring it into premier where i have some flexibility in the blending layers. The other… -
Re: Griffin's Concept Art
Gustavotorqueto: Thanks! I agree with your suggestion. I had an instructor tell me once that he didn't like to use any photos in his paintings because once you put them in, it takes so much work to remove the detail that you don't want. So true. I rarely have the patience for it. AlexKola: It's because I'm lazy :) Stosh:…
