Re: CE3 - Hardware Shipbreakers Tribute
agree with that, the design is really clean and simple, so I would expect even more bolts and fine detail to sell that one. You could easily get a little stuff in by NdO per example. Diffuse could have more unique detail aswell, also Im pretty sure the concept one would have a blue tone, but you said you make how you… -
Re: 3ds Max - Projecting decals
Using a "composite map" in the diffuse slot can get the job done. http://www.cgrats.com/apply-decals-using-a-composite-map.html But what you probably want is something more like this: [ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ge59E3n7gwo"]turboTools - Decal Projector ( 3DS Max) - YouTube[/ame] which I don't think Matt… -
Re: [Portfolio] Alvaro Canizares, Character Artist
it may be a good idea to clarify how many maps you are using....it looks like you have four 2048 diffuse maps on a single character, which I hope isn't the case when 1x2048 will more than suffice. I would also add more cards to the tesla characters electricity, atm you can identify the two planes pretty easily. Fingers… -
Re: Korgathian Spawner
So the first thing I see is that your UV's have a LOT of empty space that could have been used better, also make your spec black and white, white is more reflective, black is less, try these out, I also sharpened your diffuse a tad. I added more white to the bone things, like on the baneling or whatever it's called lol I'd… -
Re: Celtic/Norse Environment in UDK (remake) WIP
the huge circle the donut that I mentioned :) As for the pilalr, I can't tell that it is wood (i mean new pillar) becuase it does not seem to have any wood specific patterns. Also the cracks are quite "stonish" as well. It looks to me more like a WoW stone pillar, but ochre (and therefore "wood") tone. Beside diffuse… -
Re: Attic - Portfolio Critique Requested
Thanks for all the comments! So the first one is the original, and the second one is the same lighting conditions, but with the diffuse light effect on the key light turned down. The 2nd one is better in terms of blowout, but I feel like it loses some of the drama. It looks like the chair is just floating there, almost.… -
Re: Polycrunchin' temples like a boss
The sculpts are great, but the texture isn't doing it for me.... it's too monotone. It needs other colors that would accentuate wear mixed in, as well as some brighter highlights on the bricks either in the diffuse or with raising the intensity of the specular. Stuff like this:… -
Re: Workshop #04 - Polygoblin
Sharp! Huge improvement. Maybe add some more smaller details lets scratches, scuffs, worn areas. I found that in the diffuse, its mainly solid colors and less "texture" and the spec brings it way out. Check out the guns that came with the old marmo toolbag, the links on are in the only marmo thread at the top I believe.… -
Re: Baking normal map from uv layout 1 to uv layout 2
How are you baking the normal map? You can't bake a normal map as if it is a diffuse map. You will likely need to apply the normal map to the lowpoly as your "high poly" and then bake that to your low poly with the 2nd uv set. Exactly how to do this will vary by app, so knowing which app you use will help. You can also try… -
Re: Article - 7 Things that I learned during my first year in the VFX industry
Thanks, guys! Appreciate :) Thanks! Usually, my spec map is a black and white version of my Diffuse with a few level tweaks. My gloss map is completely different from my spec. Some people like to invert it, but I prefer to analyze the object and see how I'll approach the glossiness. Sometimes I like to use a texture with a…
