Are you going for just a handpainted look? Might help if there was a concept to compare to as well. I dig the shapes! I think the textures could use a lot of love. If he is just handpainted, he could use a metal highlight pass and an AO pass in general. I would look at some good ref of handpainted metals like from Blizzard…
there's no real tutorial, following a step-by-step will only make you copy someone else style. Handpaint is all about well.. painting ! know your lights and color theory and just paint. Handpaint is really artistic, it's nothing technique so using tutorial isn't the way to go. You can find multiple reference to study them,…
Hi! I am back with progress 😊 I decided to go fully handpainted, I started to work on the stone and gold but I feel like something is off with the stone, it doesn't feel as shiny as the reference... Maybe I should add more contrast? What do you think I could improve? You guys did nice progress too! @squarebender I love…
Hi guys! This is my first post on this forum and i just wanted to introduce myself and show some of my latest portfolio pieces. I just got into handpainting so here is some of the handpainted assets i've done. So this is the first handpainted asset i did. The concept is made from the AMAZING Moniek Schilder. I also did i…
Despite what its name suggest, Substance Painter is not really a tool to paint textures in the "handpainted" sense as it is lacking some of the core features that 3DCoat relies on for this task - amongst others, the ability to send a screenshot of what is currently being worked on to Photoshop in order to paint there then…
Hey, great work already for your first handpainted texture! It looks very nice if you are aiming for that kind of style(feels a bit sims 3) The question is what kind of style handpainted textures your really referring to when you say "love for handpainted textures". Name a game and take a good look at how they keep it from…
Hi guys,didn't have time to continue it,only done the blade but only the sheath left before the texturing, & here it comes my dilemma & question for you guys: should I use handpaint work for the texture in this piece (keeping in mind that it will go into skyrim)? or it should be done all trough photo textures in PS? I…
To echo some of the above : - Be excellent at creating highpoly models, both sculpted and as manually crafted geo - Be excellent at creating ingame meshes - Be excellent at UVs and baking. - Also pick a 3D CAD software like Fusion, Moi3D or Plasticity. And then things will vary from one project to another. Honestly not…
thanks to all this is a great feedback :-) yes i forgot some details to tell yes ok: the textures are handpainted + a bit foto structures to get the complete look. the greenish look comes from the light setup because i explored the shots of the blizzard and to me all stone elements in this castle setting are nearly gray…
I wasn't planning to join any challenges, but the jar concept is so straightforward and nice I couldn't help it! Here is a mostly non-destructive blockout in Blender with quick shaders. There are a few edges that can only be adjusted once the modifiers are applied, and I'm going for quads to sculpt imperfections in…
