Started texturing: The untextured pics were in some ways a "worst case scenario" for selling the wood material (it was mostly to show the baked detail clearly). As you can see when textured the damage is a lot less pronounced; a higher roughness mutes a lot of the sculpted stuff. But the sculpt is done in layers so if I do…
The thing about his lifestyle possibly "destroying the lives of everyone he cares about" is, he's not supposed to be caring about them to begin with. He's a sociopath, and feels nothing for anyone else. His "family" is a a kind of beard, hiding the truth from everyone, which is why he was with Rita at the start. She was…
Here are the things I noticed: The ivy/moss growing over the barrel in the bottom left looks a little weird. I guess the fact that I'm not sure if it's ivy or moss is a bad thing. Does ivy usually just grow randomly on the ground like that? I haven't seen that before but I could be wrong. The ivy growing on the container…
Hi, Thanks for posting, here's a rundown of what I see just glancing at it without going too deep: 1) Your wood grain is generic and not correct in terms of direction. Also the wrong color, and doesn't match the reference in terms of wear/damage. 2) You skipped out on polygons where you should have used more, creating the…
What I would do right now is to focus on the diffuse, put everything else aside for now. Focus only on the diffuse. Ask yourself questions like: Where would the wear/tear be on this particular object? On the gloves it might be light on the knockles from punching people in the face. The boots might have some damage,…
These renders are much better and easier to read. Black plastic is reading well at a macro-level. I don't think handgun bullets typically have red casings on them. From most the ref I see they seem to be all metal. Found this chart and thought it was pretty neat:…
I think that small details would make a difference to this scene. just some quick fixes you might want to try. -on the arm rest of the chair maybe add some wear on the finish of the wood where the hands and elbows would rest. -maybe think about adding some circular stains on the little table that indicate somebody put a…

It will propably get full or he cant cope with the amount of info anymore and then he cant tell what he saw 2 seconds ago.

When I was working tech support for Atari stores would send the customers back to the manufacture for refunds and replacements all the time. A few chains would even tell customers it was illegal to give an exchange or refund and they would have to take it up with us. "But the clerk said due to anti-piracy laws we would…
I've owned 3 Cintiqs. The original 21UX Cintiq which I sold after a few months of use due to the crappy contrast ratio(200:1). Not great for texture work. Then I bought the second model 21UX which was better, sold that one after a few months for money to build a new PC. I then bought the Cintiq 12" 1024x768, but the screen…
