Re: My first game ready character ( i hope )
Hi Mehdi, looking good! :) For the retopo, you should first decide the polygon budget your aiming to. This depends on what you want to practice on. So for example a big console game can go as high as 300k per "hero" character (with hair cards and high definition faces) while a mobile/esport will be much more conservative… -
Re: Can't hide seams
This doesn't look like a Y-up/Y-down problem so that makes sense. There are two possibilities here The most likely is that photoshop has fucked your maps up (extrapolated from the psd extension). Rule 1 : never put anything through photoshop unless you have gone through your color settings and told it not to destroy… -
Re: Just a warning for fellow freelancer
I'm assuming that maybe b/c of the multiple revisions that maybe the OP was unable to satisfy the client to the quality that they were looking for? I don't think OP stated a reason for not being paid did they? But if you can't ship on an asset to standards, you wont be paid. A few of my friends and myself have worked /w… -
Looking for a specific art-related diagram posted in a thread recently
Hello all, Over the last few days I have been trying to locate a picture that someone posted here on PC. I am pretty positive it was in GD, and thought it was in one of the recent "motivational" threads - either a thread about a TEDx talk, or that one thread about someone not getting replies. However after scouting the… -
Re: I need to help
Lol...guess couldn't let this one go, anyway had actually personally struck a chord remembering how it was when I had started out. Aside from the OP, many have bumped up against the frustrating challenge CG art can often represent...this 3D medium is no two ways about it really f**king hard! technically let alone… -
Re: Antlion Shredder
Thanks for the feedback but rendering with Marmoset I had to make some compromises especially since I didn't want to edit the shots. For example I wanted soft shadows because I had at least a few light sources and I cannot force the shadow catcher to only accept one light for the shadow. Sharp shadows overlapping… -
Re: Borderlands 2 UDK remake
I really like this, I have some feedback which might be useful though. I'm by no means an expert so take my crit with a pinch of salt. I think the lighting needs work. It looks to me like you have a skylight in the scene, which illuminates absolutely everything in a uniform way. You have those long strip lights and not a… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Paul Mandegarian
Did you enable the normal map when you rendered the object for the art test? The high-poly details seem to be missing, even though they are on the texture. In the first Smallville picture, you seem to have some strange stretching on the newspaper's UVs, giving "White" a reversed italic appearance. Also, the font for the… -
Re: n/a
I think modularity is a bigger category than a lego sort of set up Modularity includes tileable textures on different geometry, assets used multiple times in a scene just placed differently, grid systems, assets that combine in various ways to make different assets As far as I understand it modularity aims to make creating… -
Re: the Art in 3d Art?
Eh, these Art vs. Not Art debates can never resolved (hence, I don't know why I am contributing to what will surely become a long drawn-out argument, but against my better judgement...) because "Art" is so subjective, man... There is no concrete definition. If you feel it is such, then no one can take that away from you,…
