Re: Discussion: Increasing your speed with highpoly hard-surface modeling
Thanks SsSandu_c, I looked in the selection tab of the graphite modeling tool set, I wonder why they put separate them this way? Is there any way to quickly modify the soft selection radius like in the video without moving your mouse to a caddy? I prefer if it worked like blender with the scroll wheel. (I think blender… -
Re: Cant Stop Symmetry in Maya 2014/13
Well, just sounds like you have Reflection on for your Move Tool? Double click on the Move Tool icon to open the Tool Settings panel, scroll down and make sure Reflection isn't checked. Otherwise the quick way to turn it on/off is to press and hold "w" then left-click-hold and drag upwards quickly (goes through to the… -
Re: Best Portfolio Website Builders
I got a chance to sit in a portfolio review recently and seriously whatever has the simplest layout presents images without that iframe is the best way to go. I think Artstation is fine. If you do want a paid option, maybe give Dunked a look as well. Here's an example from someone I work with. His portfolio loads quickly,… -
Re: Will 3D scans ever become the norm?
i've seen/worked with scan data of a few recognizable actors and this is very true. a lot of work goes into making them appear just as you'd expect them to on the big screen, not like that monday morning face staring back at you with a blank expression. it also gets ... interesting when the scan session wasn't all that… -
Re: MattyWS's Substances
Cool new textures, totally agree with the comments and critics already mentioned. I played with 1 of the textures for the hell of it to see what can be done quickly and photoshops Auto corrections really surprised me, I used that image as an overlay as a saturation to get this look the other bits I did I included in the… -
Re: Mesh Topology
Straight up alot of what our GPU's do is a fuck of alot of trigonometry really quickly (transformation-wise.) The math is there that if we have dimensions or angles of a triangle we can figure out the rest we don't know. The more edges you add, the more complicated it gets to compute, but as we have been talking about, you… -
Re: pay per asset
I would always lean on the high side of your estimate for per asset, especially if you expect anything other than light iteration. And just like Swizz said , just work out your typical hourly. Per asset can be a win if you can churn out assets quickly, but it can be a huge money pit if you under estimate, or get stuck in a… -
Re: Shipyard Scene
if you look at the concept, it is predominantly a cyan color with the orange being the accent color. right now there is such a wide color gamut that it makes it seem a bit noisy and unfocused. you could play around with the color grading in udk to quickly get the final result without having to re-light anything. nice work.… -
Re: Tile Helper Zbrush Plugin
All the duplicates are made into unique Subtools. I was using the hotkey to select them before sculpting. If you hold ALT and quickly click a subtool on the canvas it will make that one active so you can sculpt on it. I can't remember if this is on by default or not but it's located in Preferences> Edit>Auto Select… -
Re: Online talk: Personal Branding Tips for Game Artists
Oh ArtStation is just temporary. I still have a year before I graduate but wanted to upload some new work quickly without going through FTP and everything. This was my site that I used to apply for my internship. http://chrisstone3d.com/index.html I'd love any suggestions you have for the site above though. Going to update…
