Re: Diffuse only environment and vehicles
I'm getting Dreamcast/PS2 vibes! Those were some fun times. What art direction do you have in mind for this? For example, on the school bus, some of the lights are green which kinda feels more stylized than realistic. The windows also have a green-ish tint to them, even though the skybox is full of blue. My personal… -
Re: Am I doing something wrong? Others with little skill who have jobs in the industry
@Brian "Panda" Choi Glad you got in, did you go to an art school? I didn't get a degree and don't plan to. I did do some overseas study in Hainan, China and community college though. I'm 21 so not really switching careers more like trying to start one :smile: @TeriyakiStyle I'm not trying to focus on others I just had to… -
Re: Methods for creating huge cliffs (low poly)
That's certainly do-able. In my experience though, it's often better to sculpt a full cliff surface, as a large rock with all sides sculpted. Then you can rotate the finished asset multiple ways when placing it in the level, which hides the repetition better than using a single extruded texture. Sculpting in a stylized way… -
Re: Modelling a tree in Max
Depending on how close you plan to allow the player or viewer to get, You could simply try some staggered planes with tree photo's/alphas, similar to how Arch Viz guys do background foliage. Obviously you'd need to play with the size/angles of each but it would be a whole lot quicker than modelling anything. Alternatively,… -
Re: Halp!? Best laptop for 3D
I agree with building a PC. I think you could build a tiny Micro or Mini ITX build with 1 21" monitor and easily fit it on a small desk. You could keep all of the cables off of the floor as well (except for power, but you'd have a power cord for the laptop as well). But to answer your question, I'd still go with the Envy… -
Re: How start human sculpting on zbrush
Before I went into environment modeling, the first tutorials I found about character modeling all started from just a box. That's all they were. While I can understand the convenience of wanting to use a basemesh, it might be important to learn from ground zero of how you go from a box/sphere to a human head. This is not… -
Re: Gran Turismo 5
You need to win the Dream Car event in Extreme races (lvl 24 req) Takes about 2 hours to do, so plan ahead. Easiest way to do it, is to use the Minolta Toyota you get for winning like the wind in Extreme races (lvl 21) Also finally found the damn Gran Turismo F1 Car in the used dealership after I won the last event (other… -
Re: [UDK] Boxing Gym
I don't frequent boxing gyms but I'd say it's a little too empty and unused. Your scene shouldn't just be a showcase of what you do. It should tell a story. Issues right off the bat are: It looks like this is a gym for only 4 people? It's a gym, they're proud of the boxers they produce yet no imagery, magazines, photo's?… -
Re: Sketchbook: Stephanie Nieves
Bit of an update dump! Been trying to get ahead in my workload so that I'll actually have free time to start playing God of War later this week!! Day 20 was for any kind of exercise equipment, and a stationary bike seemed to be a fun idea to do. As it turns out, this asset ended up taking longer than expected, as most of… -
Re: Brave
[ame=" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOmc2GzWtSE"]Brave trailer - Disney Pixar - Only at the Movies June 21 - YouTube[/ame] New Trailer. I think we can safely banish any worries that Pixar having lost their touch after the rather poor Cars 2. I'm really liking the banter between the different characters. On a side note,…
