Re: [WIP] Sylvanas Windrunner
Pointy ears. You gots to have pointy ears. :D I am guessing at which version you are using for the anatomy reference, but I think your features need to be softened a bit. Seems like you have all mostly right, just a little too exaggerated although SSS might fix that later. -
Re: Sketchbook: Massbot
Finally started some texturing!! Pretty basic atm, placeholder spec and bump and lotsa texture seams. Want to get into the habbit of posting in here more often :P - This is rendered with XSI with displacement map, havent done any 'high end' rendering before so this is bit of a learning peice. Going to start looking into… -
Re: [UDK] Overgrown City
Two things caught my attention. First; the background buildings windows are all fine, nothing broken which looks a bit odd when you compare it to the main building. Second; the trees shadows and self shadowing is very dark. Maybe you could get some fake sss in there to make it look more organic? -
Re: Ares - God of War
Thanks man, texture resolution is 2048 for the whole character + weapon. Maps include: Diffuse + Alpha, Normal, Spec Colour + Gloss, Emissive, SSS Mask. Currently using Marmoset. I need to sort the emissive texture on the hammer and balance it out. I also plan on rigging him as well as putting in a decent lighting system… -
Re: Coloured spec maps
I think Stahlberg said it's to have the diffuse emulate SSS. Basically the specularity only hits the top layer of your skin (white) while the diffuse would be influenced by the lower layers (red). Since specularity is added you need to reduce the red in your spec map so it counteracts the red in your diffuse map. -
Re: diffuse, specular, normal maps all the time!?
no...what this is about is that if you can create something pleasing with only two shaders why toss in loads more just to eat up memory ? just because they can be done ? hm..i think ill do relief/parallax/normal , with diffuse, sss, gloss , specular , second specular , fallof, cha cha maps...

Re: Upgrading or building a new PC? This is the thread for you!
Heya! Was wondering if anyone can offer any advice on a new graphics card? I only use it for Substance/Mari painting but would like to do some GPU rendering in Arnold to make look dev quicker before rendering final images out using CPU. Also wanna get in Unreal. Think my graphics card is roughly 6 years old and maybe its… -
Re: [WIP] Starship pilot
The pilot has been finalized; SSS requires some tweaking but for some reason UE5 wouldn't allow me to edit the SS profile... One other thing I haven't mentioned before is the artificial umbilical cord that would connect the pilot with the ship. The mesh itself is ready but I am still to figure out how do I want to handle… -
Re: Realistic female game mesh project - feedback much appreciated
What references did you use? She currently looks like the tallest woman Gimili would ever sleep with and brag about with his friends. Her proportions are off, she seems off balance, and materials looks like something that belong to a jade statue (too much SSS absorption and scatter). So yeah, reference plox! -
Re: Elsa [Unity] _ Finished
Thanks for the informative feedback :blush: I really tried doing the hair with alpha planes but they constantly jump on top of each other because of the transparent drawing order issue. I added another reddish layer to the nose and cheeks where the light meets the shadow to add a bit more SSS effect. I also toned down the…
