Re: [MAYA] Are my UV maps ruined? What do I do? I need a little bit of help here please...
so you're saying just do every separate material as a separate texture file? I'm not sure I understand. I can't bring the UV map from the 3rd pic I posted into photoshop and lay down textures because it's a complete mess. I can try to place every single overlapping texture set down manually, but that would take forever… -
Re: Art Test Questions!
Sounds like almost every art test I've done. In most cases, especially talking about larger studios with pipelines already set up, the work you produce for an art test is completely unusable and the assets would just sit in a recruiting folder deep in the recesses of local network setups that no one will ever look at… -
Re: Just got my portfolio online
Hey man! I like the layout of your site: simple and effective! I also like your modelling and texturing skills, but: your specular maps definitely need a lot of work! Everything looks like plastic (metal, wood on the weapons look all the same). Make things pop out more and get a lot more contrast in there. For the texture:… -
Re: therad full of self criticism of why i can't find any job
Probably just need to market yourself better, not just getting the word out but in displaying your skills to potential clients. Things like close renders that are real time, texture flats to show UV layouts and texture skills, wireframes to show your modelling skills. Your work is lovely but if a client needs to contact… -
Re: What's with the 'rules' ?
It's a great change for those who are the classic drop-a-little-jpeg posters like me to not be overwhelmed by these 'series of huge wallpapers' posters that bury a lot of the smaller posts (and made worse with compound image quoting with a oneliner which also need to be dealt with as it's a modern bad forum habit happening… -
Re: Dying Gaul Anatomy Sculpt
Yup, that is looking a lot better! ^^ The hands are still a bit small though, which should be an easy thing to adjust. I also checked out your website and I really like the layout and design of it, but there's this annoying effect when each picture loads, where it goes from pixly to less pixly to less pixly, etc. until it… -
Re: Giffard the Ostrich Jouster
So I will be making a small environment for this bad boy, so far i have a quick Proxy layout that i have started and been doing a lot of reference searching. Usually i like to make myself a concept sheet so i can easily see the different type of references that i am using in one place. Everything is really early progress… -
Re: Sketchbook: Zelenkov
Gene, the binoculars are definetely looking good, though you need to work on some of your layouts and such of your lowpoly along with working on reduction and adding to certian parts. One, show your hipoly wires, as I want to make sure you are having good topology flow and handling things correctly. And second, make sure… -
Re: Unreal Ed Model Stretching.
it's not fixing the problem. you have some serious triangulation layout issues going on. You should learn to fix these especially if you will be using normal maps on your assets. to elaborate your triangle problem is like someone not taking a bath. Putting different smoothing groups on each surface to hide the… -
Re: Ryan Sanderson, Environmental Artist
Okay, so I reworked the site. www.ryansanderson.com The layout works better, I think. The header isn't so fricken' huge, lol. Also, made the resume one page. I think I'll do the following based on everyone's critiques: 1) Drop the laser rifle 2) Get higher res pics of everything 3) Rework the lighting on "Pripyat" and…
