Re: Portfolio - Crits Requested
That stone pillar is hilarious - it should be 8-16 tris depending on whether or not you want a soft beveled edge. Your portfolio layout is awkward and hides your art, and the content needs to be significantly improved. You need more finished, game-ready work, with a larger focus on game-ready assets using proper practices… -
Re: Battlefront's Level Construction - how can everything just sort of match and blend?
There was a thread about the blending of the meshes with the terrain, but I don't think anything really came out of it other than it just being special Frostbite magic. You can achieve a similar affect in Unreal with the Pixel Depth Offset and the DitherTemporalAA node, although that's just a soft blend with whatever the… -
Re: Vayne4800's workshop
Spawn: Nice and snappy, could use a tiny bit or rotation/asymmetry in how it goes up. Idle: Seems a bit too 'even', everything seems to be moving at a constant speed with very soft curves which makes everything a bit floaty and slow-mo-y Idle_rare: Same crits as idle. The sword pullout is nice but could be smidge faster.… -
Re: [UDK] Konoha-inspired Village
Heh, 'Bout time this ended up here :P I still like the saturated colours and soft lighting. As you mentioned the inclusion of smaller details such as rocks and flowers could quickly resolve any compositional issues. As some have mentioned the addition of a more specific focal point can help. Another solution would be where… -
Re: Sci-Fi Character WIP
Cactus On Fire: Thanks man! Tkail: Thanks, I didn't do anything special there honestly, and I wouldn't recommend the way I did it actually. lol. The proper way to do it would make a straight cylinder with a bunch of loops and extrude those ribs out, then rig it/skin it to the character and bend it in place via the rig. But… -
Re: Viking Pub
Hey man! I love what you have so far, your bakes overall are really clean :) I do notice one bit that didn't bake as well: Do you have soft or hard edges there? That may either be a gradient issue? Or you could try adding more geo to the lo poly if the silhouette of your hi poly is a lot different than the lo. Also, what… -
Re: Labrys Character model
Looks really nice. Just a few things to note. The textures overall are a bit flat as _Kratos_ mention some soft gradients will help alot with that. The specular maps need work all of your materials are under defined. Your metal you are going to want to make darker in the diffuse to get it to look like metal. The red areas… -
Re: ArenaNet Art-Test 2014 | Seek Feedback
Hey! Nice work with the texturing, the sculpt looks pretty clean too. I do agree the proportions are a bit off, her shoulder area is very think and non-defined, she definitly look kind of bulky but what's bugging me the most is really her hip area. You usually want to get a nice-soft curve there, yours is pretty much a… -
Re: Learning tips! How do you empower your brain to make art?
@Weirdboy I've heard Caffeine (coffee) doesn't give you more energy, it just causes you to burn through the energy you do have quicker, which makes sense, hence why you "crash" afterwards. nah, your thinking of sugar and sugar drinks. like soda, energy drinks etc. you have to separate caffeine and sugar. i have almost no… -
Re: Spiky Hair + Smooth Hair -- (How might I effectively combine them when modeling?!)
This kind of stuff is just a lot of standard modeling to be honest. I don't think there is a good way that doesn't involve a lot of finicky tweaking, deleting, merging. Depending on the hairstyle, I'd start by making some basic primitives that can be duplicated about to create the volume, and then turn that into a clean…
