Re: Pet Peeve: Sloppy work. Or: How Anal Am I?
Totally agree with Peris here. I try to make my stuff as flexible, optimal and re-usable as possible, in the fastest time. I also make a point of keeping everything in a scene or texture very organised, so if someone else opens it they can quickly find whatever it is they're looking for. I hate hate hate people who have… -
Re: Need advice: How to get unstuck in 3D modeling
"Has anyone faced a similar problem? How did you deal with it? I’d appreciate any advice". If you're willing to hang in there like anything else worthwhile doing, the sense of accomplishment alone personally can be a real morale booster and likewise as already mentioned don't be afraid when things go pear shaped because in… -
Re: Zbrush extracted mesh causing doubles and inverted normals ?
By now you figured out a solution right? i try to fix this with inflate and dynameshing to a high % perhaps 4096 might work, click it, then remesh to a "quaded retopo". and adjust as needed, probably a good "cloth" sym over your "basemesh or design", will sort the issues out, though i've had a tough time getting the cloth… -
Re: Work in games, but don't play many games?
Games are a form of entertainment, no different from watching a movie or reading a book. All this talk about 'taking risks while playing games', 'wasting your time while the other artists get better' is ridiculous. The same can be applied for reading books, watching films, listening to music or whatever else you find… -
Re: The Flat Tire Diagnosis
I know my hospital like the back of my hand, I'm not quite as pessimistic, hell if I wasn't so gawd damn Optimistic I would have had a serious breakdown by now. But I've found unless you get your hands on someone high up on the doc chain or a specialist; the average docs just focus on the symptoms instead of the long term… -
Building a GPU powered painting program.
Hey all. It's been a while! I've been working on something cool. I always get frustrated with painting software, it's slow, most of them work in 8 bit, and work in srgb, and the workflows haven't improved really that much for decades. So I'm working on my own painting program, from scratch, using odin. The only library I'm… -
Re: Gcanlas WIP assets
i know this might be pointless posting my background study without posting any sort of targets. But its basically an abstractish far off destroyed alien jungle world background to parallax on our sidescroller. This is more of a study of the "El Sheddai" treatment. This should at least give me a jump off point for the next… -
Re: MG-42 Machine Gun
Maybe someone else could pitch in here, but having gone that route myself I don't think there's much benefit to learning texturing first through hand painted means vs. automated tools. In either case it'll look bad to start with. In either case you'll need consistent criticism from your peers to get better. In either case… -
Re: [WIP] Teapot spirit - Character Art
Good point! I'll try to make it clearer that the spirits are honey. I might be able to achieve the look by making it more transparent and redder, and also make it look like it has trapped bubbles inside, that would make it clear it's very viscous. If all else fails, i'll add honeycombs as suggested! The hair is meant to be… -
WIP Casual Axe
After a truly shameful Skyrim binge, I needed to ease back into 3D and my eagerness to do so by working on any of my many unfinished projects was close to zero. So, I hopped on the bandwagon started by a couple of my friends from school: Casual Axing, in which a cool fantasy axe concept is found and modeled, textured, etc.…
