UV is fucked in a couple of spots but i made it work

[Anonymous No.532752]

>>532707
>But it needs more rust

Rust seems unlikely, since the plane was mostly made of an aluminium-copper alloy. However it was apparently vulnerable to corrosion (which seems odd for an alloy of two metals which really aren't) and the resulting oxide was a dark brown-black which would look a bit like rust.

However, that just brings us to the rather apparent flaw in weathering this thing. The Japanese were aware of how quickly the plane would corrode if left exposed to the elements, so they were pretty careful about keeping them painted. It's extremely unlikely one would be allowed to develop a significant amount of chipping.

More likely sources of weathering would be uneven paint from fresh coats being applied over chipped areas contrasted with older sun-faded parts. Also, the paint wasn't terribly consistent in colour anyway, so different batches would always be slightly different.

Another source fora bit of visual interest is soot from the engine and guns and oil or hydraulic fluid leaking from pretty much anywhere.

Not bad! do you mind if i just try to imitate? 1. id rather learn from actually doing it myself and 2. i also still have the xcf file with all the layers, so i can mess with order and opacity and whatnot

what did you do to get that grainy, grimey look? im assuming you used a filter over the whole image seeing as its, well.. over the whole image.

heres your texture over the model

[Anonymous No.532833]

>>532831
not him but if you're in photoshop you can just take a picture of "grime" off google images. Desaturate the entire layer and then set its blend style to overlay. Boom, free detail.

[Anonymous No.532834]

>>532831
huh
I didnt think itd look that good, lol. Yeah, you can try to imitate it. Although the paint chipping on the wing could use a better position
For the grunge, I literally went on google and searched up a grunge texture, did a black color selection and erased it a few times, then added a color overlay.
For the panels, I redrew them with a 1 px brush and added a black outer glow, then set the opacity of that layer to 50%
For the smoke behind the cowling and the gunsmoke, I just used the smudge tool in photoshop
And for the paint chips,I just used a 1px brush, and marked the areas I mentioned in this post >>532823 , and for the rivets, I did the same thing with brush stroke separation.

and @pic related, yes, im rendering on a potato

[Anonymous No.532836]

>>532833

and yeah the rest of your methods were basically exactly how I did the panels, paint chips, smoke, etc. i think with better positioning and the grunge overlay ill have it perfect

Also focus on the color, the original green you used was a bit dark and really saturated. Also the underside tone (the beige areas on the skin I made) was almost white. Good luck on your other stuff (assuming you'll be making the full line, hellcats, corsairs, 'stangs, etc)

alright.


Right now I'm building the administrations office for my university. They want a full representation of the business and engineering center in unity so prospective students can take a virtual tour through the building.

This building is 4 stories and all I have to go off of is the original cad floor plan. I'm the only one who can into 3d in the entire college and all they fucking pay me is $7.30 minimum wage. It will make a nice resume filler, though. I'm not even an art or arch major, I'm in CS and CIS...

This shit is taking so god damn long. I'm not a pro or anything and this screenshot took me something like a cumulative 16 hours to do. Trying to get the scale right is literally killing me.

[Anonymous No.533018]

I'm mainly going by feel. All I have to go from is the floor plan from the original cad file. In hindsight I should probably be walking around with a tape measure or something.

I wasn't actually told the resume thing when I volunteered for the project. I mainly took it because I like doing this kind of stuff, then they offered to pay me the normal student worker wage. I may have misled you. The "look good on the resume" part is my own thought on it.

I'm eventually going to implement some kind of ai system for people walking around the building and whatnot. I've also been pushing for them to buy me an htc vive so I can implement VR to the unity project. I will be allowed to use this as my senior project as well for both of my majors, so the only real thing I can complain about is the pay.

>>533013
I'm planning on finishing it up before graduation actually. I am going into my fourth year, but it'll be about 1.5 to 2 more years until I actually graduate because of the double major.
>look like anything on the right
This is only a WIP. That isn't the finished thing, mate.
It's not just going to be a model either. I'm not quite foolish enough to think moving verts will mean anything for my degree.

That anatomy is bad. If you are aiming for animation I would just not bother learning to 3d model characters.

Animation is tricky enough.

You need to focus and do one thing, not do 20 things at once and get distracted by zbrush.

The anatomy is too bad to critique. The muscles of the pec insert into your arm. The middle of the pecs do not make sense. The abs make no sense.

The face is too high res and not clean enough.

Concept 2 for the body

[slocik !!/3tH96Fh3bO No.533489]

>>533486
i mean adding some complexity to the eyes, maybe sideways eyelids, maybe not

for the neck and chest i would first simplify the forms and define the start and ends of the muscle groups better, i would round up the back of the scull and cit in the lips much more to indicate an opening better

as for body, i would go with up[per one but remove the breast or made them very tiny and instead focus on the ribccage shape

Thats fucking awful mate.
Capcom is full of incompetent retards and their art team isnt immune to this.
Before you stylize you need to understand the forms you want to exaggerate, and Seth 3d model is and amalgamation of badly understood anatomy and badly read concept art.

But im not saying you have to get it perfect the first time around, just dont ever use the "that other hack did just as bad" as an excuse, You need to understand you shortcoming. The anatomy kolagenowe will come with time if you study it, but you should never abandon it all together, better to roll out some ref material from the start.
also its just easier. It will go much faster for you if you know what you need to create next and how it should look, even if you make mistakes at lest you will have a clear picture of whats next.

nice, the procedural wear in a couple areas looks a bit shitty like on the metal above the trigger and the super scratched guard itself for instance. a little more care into the surfacing will help here and there.

>>533610
the back looks flat, anatomy around shoulderblade area is murky, collarbones look really thin and too defined throughout and the way they flow into the shoulder isn't quite accurate - look at some scans

>>533583
animate it

>>533507
everything kind of feels like undefined sludge - from the modeling itself to the surfaces. the color choices as well are not aesthetically pleasant.

>>533486
i agree with slocik. the back skull shape is odd. also the horizontal flatness of the rib region feels jarring to me designwise since everything else is flowing and v-like.

>>533476
for a first sculpt very good, however by starting out and copying what someone else has already tried to stylize, you are not going to learn anatomy well. it's like that kids game where each person tells the next person the same message until eventually the message gets distorted. you have to study anatomy from its source first.

>>533427
nice work on the wood. maybe a bit of subtle roughness variation will add realism. I think the pattern on the cushion is too low in scale, I can see it tiling. I think you could soften up the shape a bit and definitely scratch up the surface - or at least vary it. even in cleaner photos of chairs like this they are never that perfect.

>>533356
it depends what you want, if you only want to do handpainted league of legends style stuff, you will see the most benefit from learning how to draw/paint. otherwise, do what the other anon said. in general, try to pay really close attention to materials you see around you and what defines them. break down their details by map, primary secondary tertiary mentally. just like anatomy has structure, so do surfaces

I'm not skipping on anatomy entirely, or something. I've studied 10year-art school all my school years, I was going into 2 schools at the same time, because of that, I know my share in anatomy,

you are overthinking my first "sketch" or whatever it's called.

and Seth is one of the worst characters ever created in SF universe, but he was hellova fun to play and there is almost no fanarts of him that's why I'm doing him and not someone iconic.
and I'm all about stylized 3d and art in general, I never loved realism. so when I'll try to make anything I'll always stylize it somehow..

[slocik !!/3tH96Fh3bO No.533754]

>>533743
There is "knowing" and knowing anatomy, having an overall idea what muscle groups exists and where they are dosnt mean you know their shape, starting and ending points, how any muscle heads each muscle group has or even how it looks from every angle.
Seth execution can be improved on, especially by adding an unified stylization to his skin surface and fixing those 2 rings of blob anatomy in his torso.

My paint was, and still is, to use ref material, always, even f you feel confident in simplicity of a design.
But anyway, just keep working, Working every day and working quickly, by that i mena destructively and iteratively helps best to improve fast.

>I've seen a lot of people preach the importance of being a "generalist" here.

there is only 1 thing that is good about being a generalist. which is doing indie work or fill/replace positions within a studio if you are required to do so.

however if you wanna aim high, being a specialist is the best thing you can do career wise. if you live in the states there are alot of big time studious that will hire specialists over generalists

[Anonymous No.533770]

>>533762

I think you must be a generalist at some level before you start in some specialization, not only 3d but in every medium..
that's the better way to find what you are good at and what you like most of all, then you'll go spec way, I think staying generalist is kinda stopping your progress, you must choose your way at some point

>If you are aiming for animation I would just not bother learning to 3d model characters.
this is fucking dumb IMHO.

[Anonymous No.533817]

>>533762
>>533764

there's no black and white answer. I work as a generalist right now but am strong enough at animation that I got a lot of interest for that skill specifically and can apply to character animation jobs as well. If you do create a generalist portfolio realize it doesn't necessarily mean be good at EVERYTHING, most people are not freaks of nature who can do that, focus instead on being really good at 1-2 things and that will make a company see something of worth or somewhere to put you in.

it's true that at the larger studios specialization is more important usually due to how they're set up. but it's still nice to know how things work up and down the pipeline from where you stand. and not all large studios are pure specialist. ILM has generalists for example, they gave a talk at Gnomon recently where a senior generalist was there.

My advice is do what you really want to do. If you just wanna animate, do that cause you'll be best at it. If you find you can't let learning other stuff go as well, then just do that too. It can end up being a bonus.

It's a power supply. I also like how the books are the wrong way on the bookshelf and the lamp appears to be battery powered.

As awful as this looks, I know in a lot of the >#indiegamedev circles that people would be praising it. Everything about it screams autistic Finnish/German university student.

why is sculpting so hard

Also, do studios like pixar or dreamworks sculpt or poly-model their characters ?

Cartoon have such smooth and even surfaces that it might be easier to work on the vertices directly

[Anonymous No.534337]

You don't need to draw boxes or even worry about perspective that much in 3D (assuming you're not drawing at the same time) but you do need to know anatomy.

To sculpt anything organic convincingly you're going to have to exaggerate and accent certain features. To do that, you'll need a knowledge of the elements of the body, their shapes and volumes and 3d (planes of the face, muscle construction, etc). If you make humans (or anything anthropomorphic) you'll also want a good knowledge of features (what makes someone look young, old, masculine, feminine) as well as facial expressions and body language.

Without all of that your sculpts will always be mediocre. But character sculpting is a full skill in itself, of course it's hard.

Looks great, I like it. Bevel some edges like on the crane C clamps and the big frame bits and other such noticable details. Normals look horrible if they are on hard edges - breaks the illusion.Good job otherwise I like the design.

You were complaining about unwrapping earlier but this shape is not that hard. Wait till you start finding unwrapping fun(ie. git gud) then get headus. Saves you a lot of time. I unwrapped a highpoly mig21 in a few hours.

I'm pretty spooked about getting that myself. I spend 70+ hours a week working on getting gud and sometimes I can't hold my wrist up anymore.

What do

[Anonymous No.534388]

>>534387
Whatever you do don't take Corticosteroids. They can fuck you up really good.
Wear a wrist band and/or put a small cushion under your arm.
Rest well don't work too much, keep a healthy balance.

Go to an Orthopedic for treatment, do some sport to strengthen your wrist and your whole goddamn body.
Get some CBD and take it.
If you're in pain consider vaping the whole plant.
Consider taking a high dosage Vitamin diet.

don't get that. It's fucking horrible, you're looking at minimum of 3 months recovery where you can't do literally anything with your hands even if you get surgery.

Get powerball and use it. Take breaks every 30 or so minutes and do wrist excersizes.
I got carpal after doing an avarage of 12-14 hour workdays for 2 weeks straight with no breaks for anything other than toilet, sleep, shower or food. It was a really really damn fun project.

This is almost the ideal design. You have a very near perfect balance of detail, and the detail is in all the areas that move and are focused on by the viewer.
It's also different enough from the generic humanoid alien heads people post here to be interesting.

jwz had some good advice about that in his old blog. You should still be able to find it on jwz.org.

Basically, you need to see a doctor. A lot of the advice given out for wrist pain is bullshit. For now, get a keyboard timer that's set for thirty minutes or so and when it goes off, STOP. Go do something else for a while, then come back.

(jwz was an early internet celebrity - besides being partly responsible for the emacs/xemacs split, he was employee #20 at Netscape and would work 20 hour days for weeks at a time. He's one of the first "bloggers," although of course they didn't call them that then.)

Began working on 3DS max some times ago, thought I was pretty bad at modelization for characters. And followed lots of Zbrush tutorials to understand the software before getting to this model.

That's more right.

Tried a better render.
Guess I'll try to remake later the character with hard surface and more details.
