This thing
this guy
>>516174
but for what purpose??
>>516177
the teacher made our character sculpure final the people of wallmart armed by the products of wallmart in the apocalypse
>>516177
His purpose is to stand on the wall so that you and the other Johnny six packs out there can sleep sound in your soft beds with your fluffy pillows never once giving a thought to the hard machines that are out there paying for your soft, complacent, comfortable little world with their sweat, their tears, and their blood.
So show a little god damned appreciation and RESPECT and call him SIR.
>>516174
His hands.... his hands were small. Like a child's hands. They seemed so delicate. So fragile. But... but when it happened, when it finally happened and the world crumbled like raw clay left in the sun, crumbled into dust and blew away like all the illusions we've lived, believed. When that day came I saw those small hands crush the windpipe of a 300 pound woman in the housewares aisle. Her flesh oozing from between those petite, delicate fingers. And I gazed upon him, silent and awestruck. Not in fear. I looked upon him and knew this man was my savior. This man was our savior.
>>516181
>>516180
you made me laugh, ill have to tell that shit to my teacher lol
>>516167
not enough post
Getting ready to start on recreating this, I'm going to try and make it as simple as possible since I want to try and texture it this time.
>>516199
Alright fiddling with this while I do something else, would this be considered efficient?
I'm created one pillar, then duplicated it, moved it over and then merged the edges on the top and made one mesh, I plan to do this till I have 8 pillars and then move on from there.
Would this be easy to texture? Going to be my first attempt at texturing in the Maya.
>>516216
instance them, and don't connect them, then when you UV unwrap one later they will all be the same.
Or just merge now, and when it's time to texture just delete all but one segment, and texture, then duplicate/merge again.
>>516217
What do you mean instance them? Like just duplicate and slide it over? I thought people made things like this one giant model, not a bunch of little models/meshes
I was shit on hard because I had a model like that before.
>>516216
Well I'll say learning the merge edge tool was actually very nice to learn.
>>516218

I'm trying to do characters again. But, it just that all I can produce is garbage. I even understand anatomy better and I produce garbage. Going to be working on a female face for a week.
was working on this and decided to dump it for whatever reason
>>516228
>put in more effort then copy paste
Why do people do this? You aren't being clever, it's no different then correcting someone who made a simple grammatical error.
>>516254
Its far more efficient to inform yourself about concepts that are suggested to you, instead of pressing post again to wait to be spoonfed.
For you, and me.
>>516250
Look up Scott Spencer (Now Madelaine Spencer) and follow a video tutorial.
There is no secret to getting good, learn from the best and apply yourself. I also recommend Rafael Grassetti.
>>516258
I'm following Steve Lord tutorial at the moment. I've spent the last two days trying to do something he did in 30 minutes.
I tried to do Rafael Grassetti tutorial but it just went over my head.
some sculpts i did testing out my new tablet
>>516257
Its better for me to ask and work on it, because the last few times I've asked for help the person who suggsted things ended up using the wrong tool names which ended up with me googling crap for several hours finding stuff on outdated techniques for a tool I didn't even need.
ive been slacking a lot lately
>>516282
It was the first search result.
I'm doing this for you buddy.
So I'm done with the overpass animation loop.
I completely re-did the city, and it looks better.
Because of the file size, I can't post it here, but here's a link.
http://webmshare.com/play/R57nd
(Hopefully it embeds)
Let me know what you think, but as of now I'm done working with it and nothing is changing.
I'm not meaning to seem rude by not changing it, I'm just done with it. Too much work to re do it all over again.
If anything, it's my first animation, and I can only get better from here. I learned a shit ton of new things in terms of videos and I've got some kind of a pipeline that I can use for future animations.
>>516346
much much better, but the buildings seem to be coming out of a dark abyss.
maybe some rain or lightning effects would be neat
>>516346
Looking a lot better, I think adding the aura of light a city gives off at night would make the sky look less barren
>>516354
Thanks a lot.
> the buildings seem to be coming out of a dark abyss
That's kind of the intention. I really had no idea of what to do with the ground. So I just defaulted to adding a shit ton of fog effects towards the bottom of the buildings in post.
Not the best solution, but it's better than a bunch of floating buildings (webm is what I mean)
I did it all in different layers, so theoretically I could go back and add to it if need be.
>>516357
I think adding the aura could help a bit too. I was fighting with the mountains in the background though. No matter what I did they had a harsh white outline despite my rendering settings. So that's more or less why the sky is like that.
Thanks for the help and comments though. I appreciate it. I'll do some more animations sometime, they'll be better hopefully.
>>516381
hmm maybe just adding a bunch more buildings so the ground isnt seen would do.
keep up the good work man.

>>516381
night shots look amazing because of the light scattering. your scene can only look good ift hose building lights create a decent GI
>>516392
Since the light is coming mostly from the buildings itself and the street lights you can easely fake it without having to use GI.
I made an animation of a human female trying to get the last portion of barbecue sauce out of it's container.
>>516396
How would I fake it?
>>516402
try adding a bit of glare
>>516401
>mfw when already nutted but she keep sucken
>>516404
Like more bloom?
I thought I hammered on the bloom too much, shit was looking like Oblivion levels of bloom (to me anyway).
Or do you mean like lens glare?
>>516406
hmm an ungodly amount of bloom might be good
>>516401

>>516401
A futa female on her first time jerking off her own meat.
That's what i see from my screen.
>>516381
The city doesn't rotate fast enough.
Also, floating geometry buildings.
>>516401
what's with the horse face?
I'm just making televisions go for a stroll
>>516504
So you're thinking "gallop like a horse" rather than "scuttle like a crab"?
Good thought on the jiggly antennae though, I'll give them some bones.
>>516401
whats up with her fingers ? also that smile is really creepy. the shoulders seem fucked with the pointy edges instead of a smooth drop down.
fix the manface as well
>>516514
>fix the manface as well
aka make it like every other face
Iray render out of SP2.
M2 and M1919 Browning are next.
After that i am done with Weapons and start doing some more vehicles.
>>516558
The wood bits are way more detailed compared to the metal bits
>>516558
You seriously need edge wear on these guns before you can call them 'done'.
>>516558
there is something wrong with the normals
>>516558
You're wasting a lot of polys and the edgeloops on tommys stock cause some issues with normals.
Show the wireframe.
Also if it is what I suspect, you have the front grip flat with the groove painted in. This is very dumb. What's the poly limit as well?
These guns are not meant for closeups. In the final animation they will be much smaller, and i will decrease the texture resolution.
>>516561
I hope some of the details in the wood are then still visible.
>>516566
I will probably make some texture variations of the weapons with different states of wear.
>>516578
Was a problem in painter.
>>516585
I am probably wasting some polys but this isn't planned for realtime. I still try to keep weapons under 1K, Characters under 3K, because i will have a lot of them.
I figured out how to import basic models into my opengl android app and render them with shaders.
I realize now how hard it will be to get my app running 60fps on relatively slow phones/tablets.
This is gingerbread man blender tutorial.
I'm still learning how to model and make shaders for materials/lighting...
>>516606
what do you working on?
>>516250
Did some more work. I think it looks more human now.
What I learnt is the head is five eye width in width, the eyeline is in the middle of the face. 1.5 eye width from eyeline to bottom of nose. 2 eye width from bottom of nose to eye.
That you should measure using the zbrush move tool
>>516635
I plan to do some short WW2 battlescenes with vehicles and exploding stuff and lots of ragdoll animation and destruction.
Letting the inner Michael Bay out, you know?
Its something i always wanted to do. Ragdolls and physics with fluid simulations and cloth, volumetric smoke and fire and godrays with millions of particles all in slomotion. Yeah!
>>516283
don't post 5 mins of work if it amounted to nothing. nobody cares whether you've been slacking. nobody cares about your shitty bridge made up of a bunch of simple primitives. come back when you have something actually worth showing.
I can't really tell what I'm missing, something feels off though
>>516661
Maybe those TOTALLY RANDOM scratches and blotches
>>516662
Was trying to recreate being worn down heavily with sand build up
>>516661
maybe so edge wear, handle looks way off imo.
>>516661
the fact that it looks like a museum prop?
>>516662
I tried to push them more towards the edges now
>>516669
Yeah I was trying to get around having some big obvious blobs on it and I think I got around it
>>516670
Honestly don't know what you mean by this but it definitely couldn't fire in this condition so thanks
better, worse, the same?
>>516671
grip got better metal got worse maybe some less blob stuff in this area
Im currently recreating the rabbit from Nintendos Badge Arcade game. I want to animate him too
here is a better quality image
(Last render so I don't clog up the thread)
Thanks for taking a look, I'll continue tweaking in the morning, maybe restart the damage on the levers
>>516672
>>516675
wow, it looks like a rip from the game itself, good job.
>I've never seen his legs either
>>516677
That grip is shit, so is the design. But damn that old worn out metal look is very good. I'm glad it doesnt look like a fresh out-of-factory metal piece. Even though you used a cheap image from bumpmap to make that effect.
>>516661
Your missing a side, front, top and bottom shots.
A very warped perspective is hard to tell if you've model it correctly.
An early block-out of this kitty warrior
>>516663
Wear and tear doesn't work like that. Have you looked at any photos?
>>516681
Thanks, that's how the grip is though, every review on the gun complains about it as well
>>516683
Not looking for model critique, this thing needs to be done by tonight so it's far too late for fixing any of that
>>516685
Not really, just been talking to some guy who was in the military and had to deal with desert conditions.
Been trying to texture this model i made of young Alethrion.
>>516684
Looks clean, post wires?
>>516675
That's spot on, good job.
Frog Thor
>>516862
>>516863
why?
>>516869
I need reasons??? I wanted something to test in substance painter. He was the first thing I came across.
>>516872
you dont. i justed wanted to know why you would make frog thor
>>516647
You're going for detail too soon.
When sculpting, always start with large forms, then work towards small once the large forms are !PERFECT!
Autism is a major plus, here.

Finally starting to look like what I want!
>>516401
Holy shit! It's great to see you back here, mang.
>>516752
Hah that's so cool. I guess the Tales of Alethrion style lends itself really well to low poly cause he looks great.

oh my god that's wonderful. i have never really been interested in comics.
>>516661
Have you looked at photos of a revolver? The bulletbarrel is usually over the trigger. Your gun looks way off becuase of this imo. You need to add a "cock" at the back aswell.

Updating shader, new vs old
>>516970
This spec gloss? Metal Rough? or shader shenanigans
>>516972
It's Unlit so the specular effect is fed straight into emissive, we aren't using the standard gloss/roughness stuff. It's a basic Phong highlight with a strength map, capped opacity and put through a ramp, plus a very mild cubemap adding to the look on the darker bits. It's also lit by a single point fixed to the camera, part of the shader material so that we can bypass UE4's lighting.
So shader shenanigans, I guess?
>>516974
Thanks man!
>>516970
So is the outline looking rim shadow due to the camera locked point light?
>>516931
lol
first attempt at modeling. just go ahead and rip me a new asshole, guys.
>>516985 it almost looks real
>>516760
updated
>>516996
not bad,keep going
>>517003
Thanks, I also like yours by the way, what are you making it for? Do you have any tips for extremely low poly stuff like this?
>>517005
just for myself, im using blender and substance painter, its not color only like most lowpoly
if you wanna invest in lowpoly keep modeling 10% and texturing 90%. i just haven't got there yet. it takes lots of time to get good at doing it
>>517009
this gun is odd, what rounds does it fire?

Happy Easter Anon!
I made new hair and such
Happy easter

shes got a bit of a moonface issue going on. also the why the low energy tits ?
is it your OC or someone famous ?

Just got into 3D and I'll try turning this thing into a Chibi Ornstein

>>516970
How's the project going so far, anon ?
>>517023
You are the cancer of 3D.
>>516935
>Thinking the rapier blends that much
This is stupid.
>>517056
I've posted one without the stars on /ic/
yeah I don't like the face and the pose either but it is all considered training anyway.
>>517061
looks like she skinned a dead animal and tried to make a wig with its fur
>>516981
It's standard UE4 fresnel, doesn't use a light source like the shadow and it's just masked based on normals to only be on the left side of the mesh.
>>517026
Yes. She's sensitive about it so please be respectful.
>>517049
Pretty good, little slow right now. Doing a lot of cleanup to make things nice and smooth going forward since our scope kinda grew. All the blueprint is being converted to C++ and I'm remaking my shitty babby's first rig to learn how to rig/animate properly.
Once all that's out of the way we can just keep on trucking.
>>517062
Blender has a nice particle hair making tool-set, but it requires many hours of exercise. Also it is not perfect. For example I still can't find out how to use curves as hair-guides. There is one tutorial on youtube but it is rather rediculous.
>>516199
this looks like the training hall in the secret world.

>>517064
I'm really upset by the blender hair particle system these days. It's pretty awful and broken. I seem to recall that we had the ability to add interpolated children hair particles. This made hair management a lot easier. You could use way less hair particles with better results. Maybe it works again now but I went back to poly hair and am pretty happy with it. At least with that I can export to other software without too much hassle.
>>516401
nigger what the fuck. please tell me this isnt a self insert.
finished this marketing image that we're using for PAX
>>517068
>I seem to recall that we had the ability to add interpolated children hair particles
we still have that ability, but their set-up appears to be a deep mysterious mystery (means endless-slider-tweaking-pure-hit-and-miss)
You're pulling out your own hair while you try to put hair on your model.
>>517054
What do you mean?
Is it the low poly that annoys you or the chibi thing?
>>517085
simplistic scenes with simple models with the DOF turned to eleven. people eat it up
>>517018
yeah spend some time on the clothes, and look into composition.
>>517044
>>517114
Messing about now inside marmoset with the maps and stuff. Kinda wrote myself into a corner with his pose as it only looks decent from that angle haha. Ignore the crazy look of the forked lightning, 1 min in photoshop cleaning up a google image.
It is a bit over the top, but I like the cartoony aspect of it.
>>516996
updated, hows it lookin m8ies
First basic figure I'm somewhat happy with. Still trying to get the fundamentals down before moving on. Any tips/guides/suggestions?
And yes, the waist is super thin, but that's because of the reference used.
>>517116
>>517115
>>517114
How does this look?
>>517133
Hammer looks like a plastic toy, no variation in roughness or anything
>>517133
He lacks 'character'
He needs muscles, and some face expression that would make him an intelligent personality not just a normal frog pulled out of the nearby lake and pushed into clothes and pose.
Is he good or is he evil? You can't say because his face is expressionless. The clothes say that he is a sort of knight and his pose says that he's trying to catch his hammer that he had just lost, but his body and face say that he is just a simple stupid frog. If someone would make a snapshot of you trying to catch a hammer in flight, believe me you would make a face like if there would be a cactus in your butt, but this frogs face is just like 'I have a frog brain so I don't give a single shit'
Also the materials need some sort of structure. Just plug the diffuse textures into the bump channel, that would be enough. And why is there light coming out of his mouth? Just turn on the fucking shadows man
>>516167

That's just dumb.
Tales don't get you the right looking results, always look at photos. Always. Even when doing the most arbitary/obvious shit
>>517129
There are better ways to do a crotch, pic related.
>>517158
Been looking for something like this for ages. Thanks.
Character art seems impossible. So I'm trying to break it down so I can learn it without being burnout.
I'm going to try and sculpt single features on a cube. Starting with Vipplu Face plane model on newmasteracademy.
I hope to get good through it seems impossible. I also cannot afford to quit my job and get atelier training in sculpting.
This should make sense. If I try and sculpt the whole face it would take too long and I couldn't correct mistakes, but if I spend a month or three months just getting specific features down to perfection I should be able to do the same when I attempt a whole face.
>>517171
sounds like a solid plan
that nose is shit though
>>517171
It's a good strategy. I find when you go to make an entire face its more about how all the features fit together, like can I make beautiful features uniformly across the face.
>>517172
Eh. I dunno. That nose may not fit most faces but it's not the worst thing I'm sure it could fit something fine.
>>517158
Thanks, yeah still obviously not done with a lot of areas. Any pics like this for armpits/knees/elbows??
>>517171
>i dont know man. I just cant really separate one feature from the rest. every feature bleeds and blends into the next.
Besides its not like every nose you do is going to be the exact same one.
I find it much more helpful to get a load of reference images and sculpt many MANY different faces from real people.
Doing those separate studies help you understand the underlining topology but it is only when faced when the incredible variety in real life that you realize the books and separate studies were just holding you back. Instead you now have a huge library of features in your head.
>>517185
forgot pic
>>517176
>That nose may not fit most faces
you are kiddin me right?
>>517136
Did you even read any of the posts leading up to that?
It's Frog Thor.
Like nearly all that work you just typed trying to figure out the character was for nothing. Had you just scrolled up.
The point about the muscles and face expression is good, as well as some of the texture advice, but fuck man. Pay attention next time.
Working on this thing; don't know what I'd use it for.
Using smoothing groups and might sculpt, but dunno.
Might use him as an enemy in a small game proof of concept at work but probably just add to portfolio.
>>517129
So, with something low-poly like this, is it a viable option to just quickly make some edits to get a female look?
Just whipped this up real quick, I'll refine it a little more, but basically does it look ok in comparison to the male?
>>517192
It's not a generic nose, it wouldn't look right on evey face or the majority of faces but I'm sure there's a face it would look fine on. Calm your tits dude
>>517252
>It's not a generic nose
you are seriously yanking my chain right now right?
>>516909
Yeah! You get it ;)
>>516922
God damn feet! Ugh I should just have her wear boots all the time cause I can't get the feet right.
>>516939
Thanks! And your woman looks like she just entered nightmare mode!
>>516935
Sorry but taffy man is right. It's a warp sword that bends and stretches. Thought I'd give her a more interesting weapon.
>>517171
Every part of the nose looks like too definitive, like waaaay too definitive which is bad imo. If you're looking for critique there goes my part.
Also try to collect some references from any possible angle before you proceed to hone your skill, couldn't rely on brain power alone.
Working on this absolute meme machine :^)

DOF is a photographic effect. Why would you (over)use it when you are not doing something photorealistic?
Typical Beginner Error. Why not drop some lensflare, chromatic aberation, vignette and lens distortion on top?
Learn the basics!
Learn the basics of photography, compositing, lighting etc. THEN you can think about using this stuff.
>simple is great. I wish everything was simplified.
Is that because you can't do complex things?
If you don't know why to use an effect, then maybe you shouldn't use it.

first real attempt at sculting a head/bust. i never had much luck modeling heads or humans in general in a modeling program but i've been trying out sculpting w/ sculptgl and i'm having so much more fun than i've had with anything 3d related in years. i need to figure out a way to retopo before i can keep going

i'll take that into account! thanks for the genuine input; it's annoying to me when people think "learn anatomy your everything is wrong" is appropriate or useful critique. i'm working on retopologizing the sculpt in lower detail so changes should be easier to make.
i'm really wishing i'd more seriously tried sculpting soon because i'm actually having a lot of fun with the process and learning a lot of new things that were harder to approach through poly manipulation exclusively

You are a poet and a scholar.

Why does this remind me of the 90s.
>>517263
I made some changes. I think I was making too many manual measurements and not looking correctly. I'm using a 3D model of an abstraction of planes of face.
I'm having a ton of trouble with the mouth. Everything I do seems to end up garbage.
The nose has definite landmarks, but the lips don't and they curve.
>>517621
>>517679
All his measurements are wrong.
Reminds me of 2D artist who draw in symbols.
>>517831
Nose looks good.
You need the cupids bow of the mouth and need to give the lower lip more volume. Also work on a curved foundation not a flat one.

Makin' clothes and shit for the chibi figure I made the other week.

Ears are too small, especially for his gaunt, English Butler face. That's it.
>>517956
This is cringe as fuck. That face is 12-year-old-deviant-art-tier weeb. Blob body of a 10 year old, wearing a slutty outfit. polka dot detached rave pants?
>>517966
10 year old? Aw c'mon man. It's gotta be at least 14.

Light streaks don't work like that. The car isn't moving in relation to the camera.
What you've rendered there would suggest that some substance is physically spraying out of the back of the car.

Looks like it's being spearheaded by the Theiser guy.

Sculpting a human or animal in a "pose" is generally a bad idea. Sculpt him in a T-pose or just standing naturally, then rig and pose him.
>>518004
What a faggy window color. Also anyone know if I need patch 3 of 4r7 what's it fix.
>>518015
Yeah I Usually do but I wanted to really forced the fucked up proportions in the Original
>>518015
It's not if you don't need it animated or in different poses, by sculpting it like that you can even get more accurate anatomy.

>>518016
the color goes well with my vaporwave wallpaper
>>518012
I know how light streaks work. I do photography as well.
I'm not going for realism. I do Synthwave inspired art/wallpapers, so I'm going for an exaggerated neon style look.
The light trails are a reoccurring aspect of the work I do, and I like to incorporate it in my designs (pic related).
Although the whole product isn't very reminiscent of what I usually do in terms of how the whole thing looks. I'm still working on it off and on (more off than on).
>What you've rendered there would suggest that some substance is physically spraying out of the back of the car.
The idea actually was for the neon to spray out the back of the car though, I had animated a cloud texture to vary the intensity to make it look like a sort of plasma, but it's not very noticeable at that resolution.
Working on this city for a robot fighting game.
Here's the concept as well https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3225495/BladeBallet/bitsburgh_static_3.jpg

not bad but is the blue circles and rectangle water?
>>518055
Yeah its supposed to be water. Have a crit?
Concept attatched, I posted a link to a 3D render in the previous post.
>>518080
ponds don't flow like rivers, so I thought it was a plasma thing or something.
>>518086
yeah, i guess ill make a new shader
Question, how would you put in those ridge bumps? Ive tried several times and I get pinching everywhere and the whole curved shape gets ruined. I tried beveling out some bumps but whenever I try to clean up the topology it gets worse.
>>518094
Subdivide it a couple times so that the the sides have the width you want, then just extrude them.
>>518094
some bump maps
>>518094
Keep that turbosmoothed mesh on the right, and subdivide your low poly mesh one more time so it has 16 sides.
Add the necessary geometry on 8 of the lines to get the ridge bumps, and then adjust the cage so it matches the turbosmoothed mesh you saved earlier.
Also remove those really tiny support loops and use smoothing groups. You can add then back later on, but all those will do is make editing the cage a nightmare.

While scrolling up I liked what I saw, then I got to the face

You're free to draw a better one if you want.

Really curious about your texture workflow anon, it looks great. I want to be able to make work like yours I love it.
Colors are a bit all over the place and I think the ground is too bright but other than that I like how it ended up.
Curious as to how you guys go about texturing, Im still learning and I like Sub painter but I feel like I'm not really getting any learning out of it by simply using premade textures.
how does it it look?
>>518236
not/bad
