Re: Circle Window Wall Asset
Hey kimchee! So I can show you how I would make a circle on a plane but there might be better more efficient ways. Hope you can read this okay let me know if you have questions. And sorry if any of this stuff is stuff you already know >.< Figured I would include every step just in case. Step01: I shift right click, making… -
Re: WIP: Breastplate Armor
I recognize that in your last post, the image on the bottom is of a low-poly, is the image above your high? If so, be careful of your edges. Looks like you have floating geo which is okay, but you got to have some kind of beveled edge on it. Normal maps do nothing but calculate edges. So, if it's completely flat, it will… -
Re: Simple Character Practice
can i give you one good tip? it worked for me, i reached this conclusion based only on experience. its the story of my modelling life hahaha so... i started as a char artist. my first char was this one: (yes, i still keep my oldest work. it might be like 4 or 5 years old by now xD). at the time i had no idea of what… -
Re: Roads on large-scale terrain?
The project I'm finishing up right now called for a creation of a terrain almost as large as yours. The idea was - a student would drive a car down a road following a GPS-type map, so the road network has to be very close to the real map (same goes for elevations and such). The way I built it: I traced all the height lines… -

Need Low-Poly Environment UV Mapping and Texturing Help
Hello polycount community! I am new here, and hopefully I am posting this in the right place. After many hours of searching all over the net and failed attempts at getting this stuff figured out properly, I've decided to ask for some help. Below I've got a lot of screenshots of my most recent attempt at making a low poly… -
Re: Seeking critique on an Overwatch style weapon I am modeling
- the end near the front after the large sphere changes angle, unlike the concept where it’s a straight line - the scale of the front end is elongated more than the concept - you missed the groove details at the top rear above the handle on the smooth shape - your angles on the center are exaggerated - the way you’ve… -
Re: seeking a badass maya workflow
I have the split tool assigned to ctrl-w, I don't recall having to do anything special to get that to work, I'll post back if I can think of something. Agreed that's super annoying about the preferences; I've never understood why the save button in the prefs doesn't write to the file. (or at least give us a button for it… -
Re: Modo Rules!
@pior Maya's history is exactly that. Specifically, I'm pretty sure once you apply an extrude along curve, the resulting mesh has history that is attached to the curve in maya, and any subsequent edit to that curve flows back up to the extruded mesh. @Mop There's ways that you can work with vertex maps i think modo calls… -
Re: Egyptian head modeling
I think your model is too blobby and is not properly matching the silhouette of your reference. I highly agree that you should down-res this a lot and focus on capturing the basic forms first. - The brow furrow on the reference is very distinct from the profile, creating a hard angle that you are missing completely. - The…
