Re: Final Fantasy IX characters
if you've baked down an AO map, use that to create base gradient layers in photoshop. just incase you're not aware of how to do this, select your AO map layer, then go: Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Gradient map then check the box labeled "use previous layer as clipping mask". then you can change the gradient colours and… -
Re: Help required with UV optimizing
You have about 65% UV-coverage which in the end is a real waste of texture memory. And even if you stitched it all together and placed the shell on a 1:4 -ratio map you would get exactly the same kind of UV-coverage, with a waste of 35% texture space. I would try and use those other 35% to something else (either for detail… -
Re: Sting
@aleksandr Thanks man, my references all use some kind of cool, maybe mythical, leather. I'll probably tweak it while I'm there anyway though :) @MightyPea Detailed critique is much appreciated, now I've got a substantial list of things to revise. Thanks! :D @DanielR17 Noted, thanks for the consistent support. :thumbup:… -
Re: Normal Mapping in Max 2012
Exactly. I've baked in ZBrush before too, but the seams that show when you render in Max make it effectively useless. I've been running DX9 viewports for a day now, and the weird randomly-occurring issue's still around. I have a couple more specifics about it - I can't alter the selection in the viewport, but I can via the… -
Re: XCOM
Been playing since release. Loving it! I just beat the game on Normal, and gonna go for my 2nd play through on Classic/Ironman. Normal was a bit too easy for me most of the time. Also, yeah...lots of bugs, and I'm not talking about the "shoot through walls" issue. The SHIV's were totally bugged for me it seems. I built one… -

Re: [3DS MAX] Pelt map not working as expected
Thanks for your help! That was actually the problem lol. Unfortunately after pelting and relaxing it I get this... thing : http://i.imgur.com/g5etGZb.png?1?6777 Is it worth it to move all the vertices individually to make it look correctly or should I just use planar mapping? Also, I have another question and I'm not sure… -
Re: Perplexed still on low/high poly manipulation
Traditional apps like Max and Maya, have a very different pipeline when compared to apps like Zbrush, vs. apps like Solidworks, etc. Each one has a different workflow, the point is you need to learn each workflow, and make do with it at the end of the day. You're told to avoid bool operations in traditional apps because… -
Re: Abandoned Swamp House Environment - [UE4]
I am assuming you are talking about the blockout I did in Maya? I think it was easy because I am working off a concept. I started by setting down two blockouts that were my houses, then trees and other larger landmarks. I quickly threw down a locked camera and moved stuff around until I got the composition I wanted. I then… -
Re: Diana of the Dead
Reply by blue_skies · · Home› Contests & Challenges Archives› Riot Art Contest› Riot Art Contest - IllustrationAlright! After procuring a temporary replacement for my ailing tablet, I've finally started some compositions. (also, I agree on the hair crownedking - planning on working that in) Been feeling pretty intimidated by all of the awesome and somehow flawlessly dynamic compositions I've been seeing here... by default I tend to…
