[Zbrush 4R6] Baked normal map looks flat-shaded...
...which makes no sense in tangent space with both the normal and UVs smoothed. It worked properly for some time and just started going full retard on me. I've been laying out the UVs for this particular model after the fact through UV layout. Here's the particular workflow for it (worked twice and the third started… -
Re: Naruto Konoha Shinobi
Thanks for everyones crits. As suggested I went back and reworked the hands. The old poly count for one hand was at 1,038 tris which ofcourse was horrible. I reworked it and was able to get the new hand down below half and the tri count on one hand now rests at 422 tris. The old character's whole poly count was 5908 and… -
Re: Portfolio ( advices and critiques )
Warning that I´m not an experienced artist, but these are my general impressions which more experienced people can probably correct. First taken overall it´s not clear if you want to be an environment, prop or character artist. You have a little bit of all three but none really carried through to a professional level. 1… -
Re: Black faces in Maya's high quality rendering in viewport
Now that you mentioned that, I tried something. I tried reapplying the same shader, didn't fix it. I tried applying another shader, fixed it.

Swarm Failing
Hi guys...I just installed UE4 and swarm is failing. I had this problem with UDK before and it just started happening suddenly in any version of unreal I used.

My Baking Isn't Smooth
Hi! I'm having some issues with my normal maps whilst trying to bake them in Substance but it's not coming out smooth like the high poly. So far I've tried messing about with the settings in the bake mesh menu (see screenshots below), I've tried using both OBJ and FBX, tried triangulating the low poly and using Smooth… -
Re: Professional Sports cars modeling
I gather you've an interest in class A surfacing (...borrrowing a CAD term) for automotive content?...that tend to rely heavily on reflective materials in order too convey their implicit individual design elements via volume and structure, or in other words primarily a set of unique characteristics which would typically be…
