Haiasi: Can't go wrong with Dinos.

Torrrtilla: Very nice character, when I first saw the face scrolling down I thought it was Don Quixote.

urgaffel: Syndicate I take it?

cool idea but why does the barrel get wider at the end, that doesn't make sense at all.
and the same goes for the raised up rail, dosnt seem very practical

@Haiasi I love your brush choice and style!

First attempt at ever painting. I'm trying to develop a style but I feel like I'm cheating with just using the default brush and pen pressure opacity control. Any advice for a complete art beginner?

Too be honest I thought I was doing it wrong the entire time I was modeling it.
The topology of the central "box" body is terrible. I should have made it 2 different objects. I notice myself using swift loop, bend, connect(2 segments with a wide pinch), and shell.
I would start off with simple primtives and I would always have a box at bay for me to shift+drag into position to get out general proportions first. Simple geometry with quads then I would go higher poly.
So yea:
Simple block out to get proportions(using quads)>Get in subtractive details(this is when you decide what should be a floater and what shouldn't>Add in supporting edges and fix the topology.
http://i.imgur.com/5oS3Q.png

Its pretty much a variant of this (http://i.imgur.com/YlVt7.jpg) workflow.

ps. would be nice to get some crits on the design so far

[biofrost]

@Sandro That is looking very nice, is everything hand painted? Because at first glance it looked like concept art, then I saw it was in game and was stunned.

Some more work done on the NGHS contest environment. I think a cubemap will make the floor look really nice once I get the rest of the environment done.

@Sandro- Sexy! Im guessing there's gonna be some cool light to balance things out?
@Raiskul-I like the design reminds me of Fullmetal Alchemist, but something see,s a alot off structurally with his body. I can't quite put my finger on it.

Been working on a car, little over 5k in polys. textures are still in progress. Also found a use for the married to the sea post setting in marmo.

I ended up picking up my sculpt from yesterday and put some ears and a symbol on him. But hey, it doesnt even begin to compare to yours afisher! Kick ass job mate. :)

http://i.imgur.com/hH8A8.png

I also did another quick sketch. I am trying to force myself to do one sculpt a day with an hour and a half as a deadline. That way I force myself to finish something as fast as possible and try to improve as I go along. Im not so happy about mine today but a deal is a deal so here it is:

http://i.imgur.com/LXpwk.png

Anybody has any good tips on how to improve speed and precision while sculpting? Since its my first two days in my sculpting challenge, any tip is more than welcome. Also, what are your opinions regarding the new scultris (alpha 6) I used it for both sculpts and I am quite enjoying it. :) So it would be nice to hear the opinion of more experienced members here. :poly136:

[Sandro]

Dat is a sexy batman!

@biofrost - Not really, just carefully tweaked/colored curvature map to help edges pop more.

@MrHobo - Thank you. Initially I was going to follow concept art more closely (which is pretty much analogous red color scheme for this location) but after your comment thought I'd experiment with complimentary colors a bit more. Think it works better.

[HitmonInfinity]

Great work Adam! I like that you went with "reasonable" proportions on his musculature. If there really was a Batman, he would't get much use out of a body builder physique. Good luck!

Wow that batman is incredible! You've got a great shot at winning I think.

What was your texturing process like? Looks like he's ready for Arkham.

Never realized how useful colored spec maps were. Here's to hoping Valve adds that to source sometime.

[scotthomer]

@fewes, You shouldnt really use coloured spec maps, their only real use is for materials such as gold that have coloured highlights, generally most materials dont. The being said, the axe looks quite nice, a little flimsy perhaps, and the wood looks very much like its been literally torn off a tree, but the head looks great.

[Farfarer]

please, tell me you are joking.
Well, from a physical standpoint, it's true. Only metals (and some crystals?) have coloured specular reflections in reality.

But it's not a hard and fast rule for artwork that's not aiming to be physically correct.

[Neox]

Well, from a physical standpoint, it's true. Only metals (and some crystals?) have coloured specular reflections in reality.

But it's not a hard and fast rule for artwork that's not aiming to be physically correct.

well and its obviously also a technical question, can your engine create the shading you want to create or not?

If not, fake it and coloured spec is a great way to do so

[LRoy]

Mongrel thats looking awesome. That's the new wax render in R2?

[scotthomer]

Well, from a physical standpoint, it's true. Only metals (and some crystals?) have coloured specular reflections in reality.

But it's not a hard and fast rule for artwork that's not aiming to be physically correct.

Yeah, exactly. Ive used them before (incorrectly) So I thought id give a heads up to the OP. Although as Neox said, if you need to them to do what you want to do, fair enough. It was a general comment really.

[EarthQuake]

Yeah, exactly. Ive used them before (incorrectly) So I thought id give a heads up to the OP. Although as Neox said, if you need to them to do what you want to do, fair enough. It was a general comment really.

As a general comment, this is simply really bad advice. Unless you have a physically accurate renderer, and material system... Then you can start worrying about how realistic or correct colored spec is. This is *generally* not the case in games, though.

[Joshua Stubbles]

Was working on some more BSG stuff. Textures on the Valkyrie. They're about 90% done or so. I want to repaint parts of the diffuse and redo the spec/bump entirely since I'm not happy with them.

[AlecMoody]

please, tell me you are joking.

+1 to colored spec being important. Especially if you don't have gamma corrected specular. Regardless, there are lots of different highlight properties/colors you can only get with colored spec.

Also, aside from any discussion about physical accuracy- Colored spec gives you the ability to add color variation that is reactive to the light. There are times when you don't want that color variation splattered all over your model and having it only in your highlights is preferable.

[Swizzle]

Colored spec is extremely useful for things like fabric and neutralizing the color of highlights on skin. That's why you see people doing blue-green spec maps for skin.

"Skiffy the junkyard monster is confused..."

[Growgor]

Awesome sculpt dii (http://www.polycount.com/forum/member.php?u=45291) is that zbrush or mud? and how did you manage to close the mouth?
Did you just go down in sublevels, and did it with a posing tool?

[dii]

Thanks man, it's zbrush, the closed mouth version actually has no subdiv levels because I had to collapse the entire model into one tool in order to pose (unless I wanted to spend a week rotating every subtool, which I didn't want to do) and it killed the levels, tried using subtool master first but it didn't like it.

I just masked off the top/bottom portions of the head and rotated them into position around the same anchor point using the rotate tool.

Run cycle:

Very nice! Quick question bud, how did you go about making teeth for it (and horns too)? Did you sculpt them in or were they each a separate object?

[Mr.Wednesday]

Very nice! Quick question bud, how did you go about making teeth for it (and horns too)? Did you sculpt them in or were they each a separate object?

Thanks man. :) No problem, I just press ctrl+n to add new spheres to the scene. After I placed, scaled and sculpted them, I just pressed ctrl-c, ctrl-v to copy the teeth and since it was all mirrored, it added to both sides. The problem with this method is that after I am sort of done with it and I take away the mask, seems like I cant mask that object anymore and it now part of the mesh. I dont know if that is the best way of doing things in Sculptris since I am quite the noob at it. Maybe there is a better way I might not know about. If you happen to find it Kot_Leopold, please let me know! :)

Yeah, exactly. Ive used them before (incorrectly) So I thought id give a heads up to the OP. Although as Neox said, if you need to them to do what you want to do, fair enough. It was a general comment really.
Nah, I'd go for coloured spec unless you're working with a physically correct shader that's aiming for photorealism.

There is much win in this sector :) The dragon, nice sculpt, the axe, nice texture, and the swashbuckler chick is hawt. I dig it!

[marq4porsche]

Randomind: Great axe and awesome model. Maybe the gold is too yellow but that's down to taste.

I've got some more practice doing painterly textures. Tree bark texture. Leaves are to come. I had fun with this, it feels more artistic to paint textures instead of going for realism.

Bort game dev

At this point i'm not really sure how we'll be animating and rendering Bort in the game. 3D model, baked animation or 2D sprites. Either way I'll be needing a fully animated 3D model to work from. And as its been ages since I animated anything I made a very quick rig and roughed out this animation as a test. I'll need to go back and do a proper rig at some point.

On the back view, you have the upper body overlapping into the lower body instead of the other way around. Sorry, I'm bad with muscle names and am too lazy to look up the proper terminology, but maybe this (slightly NSFW) image will help:

Trying to level up my sky work since inFAMOUS 2 has shipped.

Matte painting plate for a final environment matte painting. I usually paint skies, but this was about 20 different photos and painting layers using techniques from my Matte Painting class over at CG society. Trying to get more photo-real but still captivating and colourful.

I took most of the photos from my house in Seattle over the last year, with the except of 1 or 2 of them. The whole plate took me about 4 or so hours, and the final one is a pretty big res!

Damn, Ben... the combination of your photographic, and baking skills makes every treat there look absolutely delicious! Did you go to school to learn bakery, or is it a skill you just picked up?

[poopinmymouth]

Damn, Ben... the combination of your photographic, and baking skills makes every treat there look absolutely delicious! Did you go to school to learn bakery, or is it a skill you just picked up?

Self taught (like 3d and photography) I learn well when I can see/taste immediate feedback. I think that's why I like baking more than cooking, because you can taste the batter and know mostly how it's gonna come out.

I find my recipes from two main websites, if I know what I want to cook, and just need an excellent recipe of it, I go to www.allrecipes.com and sort the search results by rating. If I just have a vague idea based on a keyword, or have no idea, I use www.tastespotting.com

Once a recipe really strikes me, I bake it once verbatim, and then think about what I would change the next time, and keep refining it till I feel it's excellent. When you start to cook a lot of similar things, the "rules" start to become apparent and you become better at improvising without ruining the chemical reaction.

My favorite was when I HAD to have cornbread muffins, and you cannot buy Jiffy cornbread mix in Iceland. So I bought a can of corn, slow microwaved it on low for 30 minutes till they were dry and brownish, and then used my coffee grinder to turn it into a vaguely flourlike substance. It wasn't the best cornbread I've ever had, but it was tasty!

@d1ver I'm not a fan of the composition or detail in that one, it reads okay, but I dunno it just needs more little focal points and interest.

[fonfa]

@d1ver: what zac said, it feels like it's lacking a boat or something in the middle!

[Stinger88]

@d1ver: Yep. Composition feels odd. The image is being cut in half by the lakes edge. The foreground and background is split. The eye is being pulled straight across the middle to the right side but then it has no where to go. The right side of the lake looks odd as well. The small hill doesn't balance the image and the perspective feels off, maybe its the way the lake cuts into the bottom of the hill. Liking the style though. Keep at it.

G2000: that is awesome. Great stuf man, making me want to finish my Cpt America girl now!

[jocz]

g2000, nice job :) , but it feels like you could push the spec/gloss more to define the different materials.

Well I was taking a whack at the arena net thing until 3Dmax corrupted my file, It's probably for the better though, don't want the first thing on my portfolio to be something that's going to be so commonly seen

orb: thx man!
meshiah: Sick sculpt
g2000: well done, gratz! it deserves a better material definition.


Update on my dwarf orc. (head based on Paul Richards sketch)
Started as a bust doodle, but I'm having fun with him and probably will push further.
