Re: Modern colour theory
Thanks everyone for your comments, and to Muzz for his detailed response. In defence of huevaluechroma.com I'd stress that it's intended to address a broader range of audiences and interests than you seem to have in mind. I certainly don't go through it from beginning to end in any single course I teach, but since I… -
Re: Utilizing UV space for the sake of it
If I'm not going to be sharing the texture, and I must stay within the UV space for whatever reason (no tiling or intended UV stretching), my process goes like this: * I will first run MoP's Normalize script, or use ye' old eyeball scaling with a checker pattern. * Try to pack everything into the UV space with a quick pass… -
Re: Zbrush 4R8
Not sure what you mean by mm movement. The model was never intended for LP but more an exploration of the ZB 4R7 modeller and keyshot combination, except the numbers which were imported from Max. What good is it? Well in a 3Dapp I wouldn't have explored the shape. I didn't start with a concept and work through it like you… -
Re: WIP - T-34 for next gen game
Cubik: Thanks for info, and advise. For the refs, in fact I gathered quite amount already. Yes, I found there are various models and lean over this model. Adding some parts from other models will be followed as necessary for eye candy. For the base part, I'd say I meant to build it as lowpoly as possible since it will be… -
Re: Palm Tree
welcome to the forums! Those are nice, cartoon-style (Monkey Island comes to mind) Palm trees, but I'm curious what they're intended for? If they are for a game, then there are a couple ways you could reduce the poly count. But first-- I think you mis-counted the number of polys-- are you sure you meant triangles? Because… -
Re: Character building for portfolio
off the bat man, push it to 8 heads tall. 4 heads to the crotch. then 4 heads to the feet. Adjust his legs when you do this as they seem stubby atm. I would make his torso a little less square and more triangle. Broaden his shoulders. Also your feet are way too small and squashed vertically. Because theres no side shots I… -
Re: Music creation programs
Protools doesn't require the expensive hardware like it used to, there is a consumer version known as Protools M-Powered and Protools LE, the only hardware needed for those is just a audio input/output device, can PCI, USB, ect.. they have a whole list of supported manufacturers. Personally I like Protools, but would… -
Re: General dSLR advice
Thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated. Thanks EQ, I've seen some of your photography posts before, you clearly know your shit so I was kinda hopin' to get a response from you :D Having read your comments, as well as the review you linked, it seems I'd be rather silly to go for the GF1 over a DSLR, just for the sake… -
Re: what ever happened to plug in player models?
I have to echo Paul's #8 as well. I know quite a few people who have switched to MMO's instead of FPS's. Mostly because of cheats and how easy it is to hack FPS's. When someone cheats in an MMO it throws off the economy and it is harder to tell who did it. When someone cheats in an FPS it craps on everyones good time, and… -
Re: Roman Ballista (prop)
Thoughts on improving texturing Starting with the UVs; many sections of the UV layout are the same. So you could have reused those sections of the material instead of giving it all unique space so that overall you'd have higher pixel density. On the other hand, had you uniquely painted the texture, this wouldn't be the…
