Been too long since I've updated this. Mostly been working towards getting as much of the low poly modeling done and placed within the Throne Room in UE4. Finally figured out a solid throne and flushed out the story behind the design a bit more. The king is symbolized in the throne room as the Sun. I will be adding on a…
I'm participating in the Allegorithmic Substance contest: http://www.allegorithmic.com/contest/battle-titans For my submission I'm creating an armored war giant which is inspired by the ones found in a game called Drakan: Order of the Flame (1999), which is an old favorite of mine. I thought it would be cool to create a…
Hi I have a problem that i can't figure out for a while .. i was trying to use VRay in maya for the first time so i exported my texture maps from substance painter by using VRay configuration to attach them to "VRay mtl" in maya by following the Allegorithmic documentation on their website!…
Hey it's me again, So this was my first time going from Substance and importing to Unity. I textured a rock asset in Painter, liked what I made, and then exported it to Unity in the same manner they do on the allegorithmic tutorial page. However, my rock looks more like a turd than a stone. What am I doing wrong? I…

A friend and I recently created twin fire-eating D&D characters, so I thought it would be interesting to create a throne room based on them. I was thinking private tent in a circus at first, but now I'm leaning towards a more ornate, smaller interior space, with only one throne instead of two, in order to simplify things.…
Hi everyone! I like to introduce my small entry to this contest. I saw every thread (a lot of time indeed) and this is gonna be very hard! and very exciting! My idea is to mix Celtic art with a lot of improvisation :) . I think the throne room as a place threatening to visitors but pleasant to throne owner. To achieve…
Glad to help! For lack of metalness, I'm not sure what to suggest. Be sure you're using the standard redshift material, they have many types. https://support.allegorithmic.com/documentation/display/SPDOC/Redshift+for+Maya I forgot all about this and that's where you got the _f0 from, and was made for an older redshift…
I used to struggle with AO, curvature and even separate concavity & convexity maps... but now in Marmoset Toolbag 3's baker when all the high and low polies and cages are set up, it's just one push of a button and bakes are awesome. ;) Nowadays you don't basically need to bake anything else than these 6 helper maps for the…
Hi SuSo, From my limited experience, a mid to large scale studio will likely have a specialist Weapon Artist or it would just be outsourced. Regarding books... I don't think there really are any. The industry moves so fast that anything put to print would likely be obsolete by the time it gets into readers hands. That…
