Hello, Being curious and inspired by the work of the Quixel team, I decided to see if I can mimic some of their results and try my hand at constructing my own prototype "megascanner." It's a 1 square meter wooden box with an open bottom and a hinged top. Each interior side has a set of white LEDs each wired to a dimmer…
I decided to try my hand at capturing textures with a cross polarizing light setup and this was the result of todays test. I generated albedo, normal and specular/roughness maps. The relevant equipment I used is as listed:* Canon 7D * Canon EF 28mm F1.8 USM * B+W Circular Polarizer * Canon 430EX II Flash * Manfrotto…
I want to start this post by saying why this would be so rewarding and fun for any fantastic character artists reading this post: I have already created a host of fish: cute coral fish, orca whales, piranha's... Their base meshes are solid, the Uv's are good to go, and I use a decal system embedded in the fish shader to…
Hey really great stuff! Try using an orbit module to give your embers some variable swirling, much like you'd see embers in a real fire riding inside of heat vortices. You can also do some material work do get those embers to flicker automatically. Also it looks like you're using a flipbook for the base fire? If so, I…
Herr-Maestro: Hah, I've been described as looking like Freddy Prince Jr. and Elijah Wood as well. I'll tack Mr.Rollins onto the list.

Nice Job!. Your voice is verty clear. You should put your name at the beginning of the tutorial, website, email etc. Incase anyone has any questions. If you would like another video format, I converted it into a 22mb xvid file that I can send to you over AIM when I see ya online
here is my list in order of priority/ wish Customise File Formats Be able to set the default set of saveAs file types. All I need on a daily life are PSD, PNG, JPEG and maybe TIFF. It would save a lot of time if I could disable any other file format from the dropdown menu to reduce it to just what I need. Feature: Quick…
Scene I put together for an art test for Camshaft Software (Camshaft gave me permission to post this) I had a lot of fun making this, any crits welcome :) Here you can see how the fresnel effect is used to dull-out the displays. the oscilloscopes fade out, the table LCD has a low field of view, and the CRT displays have a…

So I have started writing my own DX11 Tesselation shader, at a hope of looking at how they could be used for VFX. I started trying to get some basic tesselation working in Maya 2014 with the DX11 shader with viewport 2.0 and I am having some trouble with the domain shader. I think I am passing the right data sets through…
