Retopology, how it flows and how to start it
Hey folks! I was wondering: When you have to retopo something like that: would you start with the borders(?): Or would you just begin with the obvious part where you know there is no curvature and build the rest based on that: I find it somehow hard toget a good looking retopo-mesh with that simple mesh.... it is the… -
Maya into GIMP/Photoshop?
So I'm working on learning to transfer uv snapshots into a editor program.

One side of… -
Re: Can someone explain the mid-poly baking process?
If you remove support edges you mess with normals which means your baked normal map is no longer valid. You can patch it up to an extent by transferring normals from the original mesh to the edited one but it's all a massive hack and what I would classify as a shit way to do things. Personally I avoid baking to cylinders… -
Re: Adjustable uv's possible?
