nothing great just trying to get to grips with the workflow of how things are done.

tbh am lost on how to bake this for a low poly one.. i tryed it but it only did abit of the floor. do both unwraps need to match? and i guess i need to unwrap before a bake? watched tuts but still not getting head around this "bakeing" yet.

anyway heres high polly section so far.

diffuse & normal. Not used to the methodologies required for normal baking so i sort of fubared the uv's.

some strange errors in the sides of the bake, even though the test bake didn't show any errors. *shrug*

So yeah. Doing an environment and some assets from scratch, haven't done much of it in ages. Been bughunting mostly and polishing so yeah I feel a bit rusty and need to get my edge back!

So here's a soopah early wip. Snow is glitchy as fuck and materials are unfinished like many of the objects. Textures aren't really there either but nuff excuses.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Pj6ZTzhlws

Looking good! Funny that I marathoned the whole Game of Thrones just yesterday and was thinking of doing something based on it myself :P

If you want to have a little fun with the materials you could add some procedural snow. You could make a material that blends between your base texture and snow depending on the direction of the normal. Here's (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4361936/Photos/my_shizzle/rocks_shader.jpg) a similar material I made a little while ago. You will need just the nodes within the "Blend" box and then tweak the values a little.

Modular sci fi floor tile for a portfolio piece. I need to fix the edges, but other than that, the bake came out nice. Still need to bake out modular pipe set that goes with it. 362 tris.
I'm still not sure if I should take a clean Mass Effect route or an industrial grungey look. I made a nice high poly floor light to go in the center, but it's missing from my files. :(

http://media.moddb.com/images/members/1/376/375371/WoodPlanks_001.jpg

coming along nicely!

i think some edge definition could help - it seems like all your hard, crisp details are in the center of each board, instead of defining the edges. this creates a convex and soft feeling to each board. you've shaded them to reinforce this, with the centers being lighter than the edges.

same goes for the top and bottom edges - these are both uniformly darker than the middle. they also get a LOT more 3d, which further separates them from the rest of the texture.

while definitely cool looking, your swirly knots feel out of place, as there's nothing else of that sort in the textures. i would expect a lot more grain-lines and imperfections to go along with these. go crazy!

and keep in mind, wood grain doesn't always follow the boards - you can get some really cool looking variation between boards by showing off all the different ways the grain can manifest itself when cut into boards.

lastly, it is in need of some color variation. this is the single biggest complaint i have when people do 'hand painted' textures. they're often very flat with little color range. easy to fix after you're done with some layers, but i think it always looks better if you actually paint with those colors and get those interesting mixes.

looks like it's still a WIP, but i thought i'd throw out these observations

that is called DEMONOLOGY, so I guess you know what it's about
I got a lot of the stuff thought out so.. hopefully I will write something down about it.. even though my english and writing sucks so..

but anyways, here we have Dunn
who is the main character of this world
naked and dressed sheet of him!

not that much to say about him now really...
but I sure like the idea I have for this
so I will surely make more and more stuff for this!

aaand if you are interrested in knowing more about this? just note me!

I will also hopefully make a 3d model of him! sure will be a challenge since I just started doing 3D!
thoughts crits are welcome!

First texture test in source engine, just using brushwork at the moment, i.e. no model.
I'm using source engine, specifically, l4d2.

- normal map is as good as useless (lighting, detail density, etc) no ssbumps (source-specific directional normal maps)
- unflattering lighting (improved lighting needed)
- feels rather clean & sterile, and boring at the same time (<20 min hammer job)
- needs more props with textures applied
- not particularly fond of colour combination
- more interesting environment

The 2nd one looks flat but the way you did the grooves/grains imo are better than the 1st one.So maybe a combination of both would be better and also slight/subtle color variations between each plank wouldn't hurt either.I mean color adjusting them to make one for example greenish while the other more bluish or something.Thanks for posting this, made me want to revive my old thread and do handpainted stuff again.:)

I would recommend removing geometry; notoriously lots of edges don't do well with turbosmooth, only when you need really complicated shapes, but in my experience that's really on of the only situations where the shouted rule "moar geo!" helps. in general, and certainly when creating large shapes, less geo is the way to go. (at least, and again, in my experience; other people might think differently about this)

then, when the geometry is less complicated, i would start by first putting in the shape you want where you want it, and then think about how the edgeflow on that part of the model should be. in this case, going in a curved manner around the hole is probably the preferable technique. also, I see (or at least it seems like it) you have a pole right on the edge of the circular shape. this is a recipe for disaster :p
poles in general should be forbidden when creating high poly models, but unfortunately it's not always possible to avoid them completely. BUT, in this case you really should try to find a way not to have a pole there, it's messing up the circular shape.

hope this helps :)

BelgianBoolean

07-28-2011, 01:52 AM

Thanks so much mate! I finally solved it. Kept the extra geo near the circle and nuked a lot of other edge loops. Went back and relaxed some verts and bam! Done.

Sweet work Jackwhat...as per... seconded timelapse request

Is the snow/mountain photo sourced, or brush, or a photo sourced brush even? whatever it is it works well. If its a brush would you mind sharing brush shape and settings, or the process used?. I don't want to use it I want to make my own.

Jackwhat, incredible, great colours and mood. can you give us an overview of your artistic workflow? do you start out with shapes/composition in mind, block in values, and conjure up ideas as you go or what?

edit: third timelapse request :)

Use a seperate mesh for the cylinder if you havent already. Makes no sense to try and use a single mesh for something like that.

since the REF it self has separate pieces i would do the same with the high poly. also use less geometry it'll be easier to capture shapes.

Thanks for the texture feedback, everyone. I still need to make some of the noted changes. I also worked on a stucco type texture.

This model is throwaway stuff - it's just meant to test the textures and is not a real asset, so please just focus crits on the textures. I still need to make the end-cap texture for the logs.

My first creation with zbrush!! This is a warhammer 40k tyranid spore mine, altho my girlfriend says it looks like a nightmare sperm with a penis head on it. I couldnt really disagree! I wanted something simple to learn how to sculpt, then get everything out of zbrush into a renderer. So this is a decimated mesh, rigged and rendered in Vray. I want to go back and resculpt the horn on the front now ive discovered HD geometry (the garbage sculpting on the bottom of the horned plates is the HD bake test!) and redo the tentacles to look like mushroom stalks a bit more. However I am quite happy for a first go doing something organic, makes me want to do more creatures!

it's hard because the Blender PSK support sucks you'll easily malform the mesh if you tweak weights too much. That, and I don't have the possibility of tweaking the skeleton/animations (like everyone else had here in the UT2003 days)

arms and back sucks, but at least the ass is okay

Needs more heaving space hulks after there blow up. Get the battlefield trashy with bits of debris and junk. That would immerse the player so much more. (just have a cap of sorts, or let them degrade/take damamge so they dissapear so it dosnt impare the player too much)

Yeah I wish we could! The engine is old and limited, no source code. We can spawn a model of debris, but we'd have to hand animate it all - there's no physics based motion or anything like that. :(

Hey guys, i know i dont post on this forum with my work so much, but suring my summer break from school i worked on this little hobby project.
For all non warhammer fans out there its a modified Rhino APC.

And basicly im having a problem. Im trying to add a bit moore fine details to it. But i cant really come up with anything. Any suggestions would be appriciated.

Oh yeah the tank tracks and the top hatch are still in work so im allready on that.

@Visceral. Since you're doing an APC corrupted by nurgle, there should be tons of opportunities for wear and tear. Modeling the nurgle logo on the entry hatch could also add a bit of detail that you're missing.

Yeah im not like 100% sure yet what to make of it. Since the base mesh of all chapters are the same i figured i would build that first and then later on add the markings and whatnot.

But at this point im trying to keep the base as intresting as possible. Im thinking about making it sort of "chaosy", thinkin big chains and marks everywhere. And spikes ofc. But until then? I have some big areas with just flat surfice. I feel it lacks something.

If you're gonna do word bearers then maybe a big 'ol book of evil chianed to the front, maybe some scrolls made of human flesh hanging from the sides.

If you go world eaters then spikes an blood an chains all the way!

Perna: Cool stuff man! I don't suppose I could toss in a request for alpha channel support eh, so we can knock these out from the backgrounds? Also, I take it this only works from what....2009 up? I tried it on Max 9, but got a number of script errors. On 2011, works like a dream. Thanks for this!

We aim to support only 2008 and up, sorry about that, man.

Regarding alpha support; we will if there's a general demand for it. We try to keep all our tools as lean, simple and efficient as possible. That way they should be able to co-exist with the similar tools out there that provide many options but may be less straightforward.

There are cool viewport image scripts out there, just none with the kind of efficiency that would suit the volume we see, with thousands of WIP and drop images submitted by our artists. ViewThief is designed around those needs.

I'd have said that if your planning on adding some chaos style stuff then you're base is perfect. you dont want things to get too busy(gotta have focal points and rest areas). some skulls and spikes and chains modelled well will really set it off.

This is what I'm currently working on, its the modular wallset for a plush futuristic 1st class waiting lounge in a small starport.

The floor is temporary, its going to have some metal bits on it too, I want to find somewhere to throw a nice little emissive light on it too. And also there are some super strength specular highlights on the corners, they will be dulled down before these bits are called bobs.

Would you mind posting texture flats?

At the moment it is looking just that - flat, on the concept there are well defined bevels on certain sections (which read a lot better on a normal map), such as the triangles that yours just doesn't have at the moment.

Also, for the cylindrical plug things, you can probably cut a lot of the detail on the upper ones imo, especially given the size of the player in the concept.

How many Tri's is it at the moment?

The metal material looks nice though :) I really have to work on my versions specular map, maybe in my next holidays :(

Really? Awesome! Would love to see that!
I know there are two here in Australia, but I don't think either of them are in flying condition :(

I think I may actually have some pictures of it somewhere in my big folder of refs (I have way too many ref pics for this plane :D).
Was very handy for details about how things were put together :)

Also, I like the corridor, would be cool if those centre panels could split down the centre and slide out, revealing a window or something.
