Re: Railgun Sniper Rifle
@ Nerf Bat Ninja: Thanks dude! Yes I am looking forward to working on the materials. Finally out of the Lost Woods of Lowpoly/UV/baking... mostly... @ l.croxton: No worries man, the whole reason I'm posting is to get harsh feedback, so thank you! But next time tell me if it sucks before I do the whole UV layout ;) . I'm… -
Re: [league of] Dr Mundo
hmm i love the sculpt and the maps came out pretty great, but i have to admit, the texturing is super weak. I don't know the character as i haven't played League of Legends yet, so maybe some things are by design. I think the textures right now feel kinda boring to me, because they are pretty much just one color, brightend… -
Re: Assets for a new scene
Thanks a lot guys, that pillar in particular was a bunch of high poly sub d modeling in Max. Then a retopo in TopoGun for the lowpoly. working on the textures now should have something a little later tonight. Update: here is a texture for the door I am working on, I am sticking with the whitish orange/blue color scheme for… -
Re: Jrpg-ish kind of character
Thx for the crit guys,I'll fix that arms,or maybe I slighly lenghten the arms and slightly shorten the legs,wichever looks cooler :) Regarding the face,I had specifically put "masculine" inside my definition of badass,so I'm not sure I want to bring it in the androgynous direction,but I'll try that as well just to see what… -
Re: MZ Trophy Motorcycle - Help with materials, C&C appreciated!
Did you bake the normal map on this using a highpoly? If not then you should, or at least add more geometry overall. You Questions. 1. About the metal texture, show us the textures and we can give some tips. 2. Add the screws on the handle. 3. With looks good to me without looking to closely, but you should have at least a… -
Re: Modular Wall Workflow Thread
I agree that the square template is working against you. It could help to design your wall segments to fit together from the front and side. The walls in the generic wall tutorial you mention above do a similar thing. You also mentioned that building the lowpoly takes too much time. I find that (assuming I'm using one… -
Re: Looking for some portfolio feedback, purty please
Thanks a bunch, JMT. I'll definitely be taking all of your suggestions into consideration, and plan on executing on a few of them soon. I guess I underestimated the importance of images. I figured nobody would care about them and would just check out the video then bolt. On a side note, I was actually at the EA Burnaby… -
Re: Displacement Maps 3ds Max
You cant create a usable height-map by converting it from some other map. Instead, you must pick up detail from a highpoly model and put it into the texture of a low-poly model (the lowpoly model can just be a single polygon square plane too). To get a heightmap, you must pick it up from a highpoly. The fact that there is… -
Re: Monthly Environment Art Challenge - July & August 2017 (49)
@Larry My general workflow on maya is to explode everything then use a cage for each part. I keep the scale the same (except for the cage which obviously needs to encase their respective piece). Tim Bergholz from ChamferZone also uses a "per mesh name" baking process with Substance Painter in his tutorials, which then… -
Re: normal maps, i have never made one right.
I think a solid workflow helped me a lot. It's real headache to work around problems when it takes you a few minutes just to prepare and bake everything. For example xnormal is a good app because you can prepare all the settings once, and then it's just one click to do bakes. (even if you change those models) From modo I…
