Hey man, off to a good start here, but yeah as @hmm_rock said, the thing that is going to sell this scene is the lighting in particular. Also try to get that god ray in there, there is an example blueprint in Unreal Engine content examples (under blueprints) but that goes through quite a lot of code. I would say just add a…
Character Art is VERY hard to break into. You are competing with people with perfect anatomy knowledge and honed sculpting skills. In that department, your portfolio really has to be jaw dropping. You site is good, but not amazing. Scarecrow has a lot of aesthetic issues. And I agree it's doesn't show off your true…
kk cheers I will look up modular design right away.. Also I know this might be a real pain as well but I was wondering whether you guys could show me some examples that way it will definitely stick in my mind and to also make sure that I haven't misunderstood anything. Say for example if I was to create a building (block…
"The biology of colour zones; (as we see in the Science Photo Library anatomical depiction of the muscles, nerves, and blood in the face) stems from the muscular neurovascular structure of what happens beneath the sub-dermal layer of the skin..." From this image, you can read the rest, I'm too lazy to type it all up and…
Topology can be done in various ways, with certain rules to work from. You seem to already know the basics, but like you said, there's a funky network of edges on the cheeks. Using poles is the simplest way to keep a clean mesh: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1247603 In short, poles are used to redirect…
[ QUOTE ] so i should try adding blues/ orangish browns for my highlights? and then add a color for shadows? [/ QUOTE ] Whatever's appropriate, really. If the model's intended to be outdoors, mostly, a blue base color would make sense. In Quake style hallways, yellows and oranges for highlights will fit in well, and so on.…
[ QUOTE ] The G1 cartoon doesn't involve self-mocking humor in the way of Optimus Prime saying "my bad" after accidentally mauling Sparkplug's carefully manicured lawn - look at me, I'm not a wise and experienced warrior but actually a big silly clumsy giant who can't watch where he puts his feet! [/ QUOTE ] How is that…
Hi @metalliandy I'm wondering if Lys can reduce saturation by mip level? I'd like the highest mip to be original color, but fading to monochrome by the lowest mip. I'd like the glossy IBL reflections to have color, but irradiance IBL to be monochrome. Reason is we would like to be able to judge color accuracy once models…
Well on what you have there is pretty nice since it's not a full sphere. I made a couple of examples. How you could go about mapping that. It depends on how much texture space you wanna use versus stretching etc. In the last example that'd work best if you got some sort of natural seam in the object. So the top "half…
that was awesome. one too many images of puzzle pieces though your voice made my heart skip a beat :P really great presentation and solid use of examples. may be beneficial to take the decision making process learned from playing video games outside of the world of computers and how this developmental process could be…
