Re: Xenomorph animation
If this was my shot I'd cut the 3rd jump and have him only do 3 jumps total instead of 4. His second jump would take him to the closest pillar and then he'd jump down from there/ because these jump are mostly the same. Four is repetitive, even 3 is maybe too much, but you could add a little scramble or something into the… -
Re: I'm lost - Chinese Bridge? Texture
Hm... if you're not too great with handpainting, it's best to start basic. First off, you are not trying to recreate an exact likeness, but rather a representation. So, similarly to your cute oversized bridge, make the texture cute. This is very vague sounding... The main problem you have is that you tried to get to the… -
Re: Zbrush and 3DS Max Texture Problem
I will try and work with a Z sphere and let you know if there's some kind of seam. Here's my steps: *Plane + shift (whatever that method is called) modeling in 3ds max. Modeled out the overall figure. 1500 polys *Took it into Z brush. added some details, subdivided. etc *When I started with the scales and finer details, I… -
Re: How to learn Materials?
I recognize some of the bigger spider webs can be very intimidating, i encountered the same when I first started out. Especially if the materials don't have any clear descriptions or comments. For basic stuff I think there's a few functions you might want to try, just to get an idea of where to start and to give you more… -
Re: Personal Improvement Thread :)
I've started to put together a new project idea: a small desert island scene (with pirate memorabilia ;) ) Above is the first moodboard I've put together, just to try and get a feel for the sorts of things I want to build. Here's a little doodle I did which represents (very roughly) the way I think the layout will be: I… -
Re: When to call a model done
When I was more green, I followed the deadline. (30 days) At first, I usually finished before the deadline but the quality wasn't so good. And I couldn't improve it better without throwing like half away. Just call it done. This phrase means you have no skill and no perception. Then, I knew more stuff, and maybe a bit more… -

Re: Community Directed Environment: Fantasy Exterior
Care to share what those elements would be? At this point I am looking for more of a discussion vs feedback. What Mr. Glowacki gave is a great example. Throwing out content ideas, possibly with the opportunity of supporting those ideas as well. For example if castles or magic buildings come to mind when you think fantasy,… -
Re: help on modeling and texturing large scale objects
How involved will the player be on the deck? Will it just be a "platform like" object that you will only play on for a few seconds before jumping off? Or will it be an entire game play level unto itself? If the former, then yes, model, optimize and build out what you need on a case by case basis. If its an entire level,… -
Re: Azog the Defiler - First Sculpt
Welcome to Polycount :) Not a bad start! ZBrush can be an intimidating piece of software to approach initially, but keep at it and you'll find it to be an incredible intuitive and powerful tool in your arsenal. The thing about ZBrush is that there are so many different ways of achieving the same result. For example, for…
