Re: Dwarf Slayer Character Production
Thanks for the advice Der Hollander and the time taken to do a nice paint over for me :) its really helpful. I've been using Mara 3D for my reference, i know again its another artists work but its the best tool i've found so far in attempting to visualise muscle interactions on the body but I definitely see the importance… -
Re: My first GDC, can anyone offer some very helpful advice?
I hate the presentation of your portfolio, the tremendous quantity of things, and the scattered grouping. It adds a ton of noise that makes it difficult to get a read on who you are. Most importantly I have no idea what you are or what you want to do. You seem to have a lot of animation, but then some modeling/art as well.… -
Re: Texturing Practise
the screws do mess with the scale a good bit. if that's an 8 foot tall wall tile then those screws are about 3 inches in diameter! one of my main concerns is your damage placement. remember that things get worn because of interaction, and if this is an indoor wall, it would get more worn towards the bottom where dirt would… -
Re: Crit my failed art test
i would say that the textures are passable... sure they could do with a bit more love, but at least they're on the right track. for me, where it all falls apart are at the basics of anatomy. the interraction between the deltoid, pectoral and bicep is just completely messed up. it looks like you're confused between which… -
Re: Alphas vs Geo for foliage
alpha blend (ie, glass-style partial opacity) is very expensive, but it also typically isn't used for foliage, alpha test is (1bit alpha, also called "on/off" alpha) which is more expensive than not using it but is relatively cheap. The big issue with tree construction and modeling is that in order to hit the same number… -
Re: How do you think the Virtual Reality sales will do now its about to hit market?
The VR thing is a long haul situation. Its definitively going to change the way people interact with their entertainment as opposed to the 3D tv and glasses which was "Hey, theaters are making a few extra bucks lets do that too". Keep in mind the people/companies that have been seeing VR as the future: John Carmack/Occulus… -
Re: Haz-Course Character: Dizzy (GuiltyGear)
Woahhh, pimp! Othos are clean and pleasantly painted, who says that art school didn't do you good!? Post more sketches! Just trace/gesture over the ones you've done already and don't like, and show us the new ones! if I may jump in before you dash out of the realm where I can offer critique: There are a couple of key… -
Re: ZBrush - annoying window border on lower screen margin
Hey guys I have been having this issue for a while on Windows 10 but I never really managed to solve it with the previously mentioned solutions. Today I finally found a workaround that actually works for me on Windows 10 x64: after reading this article on howtogeek.com I installed a small application called TurboTop (that… -
Re: Remastered games you would like to see?
MechWarrior 2. But the more I think about it... the best way to maintain the unique feel of its early graphics would be to do really high-poly models but leave them almost entirely untextured except for vertex colors. The game used a lot of very saturated colors in its skies and lights and a lot of very dark earth tones in… -
Re: Are NURB model used in games?
If you are doing engineering or industrial design NURBS are the only way to go - because there are clear advantages with them in those fields and they have been established. On the other hand any real-time industry including games has been stuck with triangles all the way because that's how the hardware (GPU), frameworks,…
