Post cool low poly models or just your own work.
Do you think the dithering on this one is excessive? It's not the gif compression.

Anonymous Wed Jul 3 20:28:50 2019 No.688092

>>688090
UV mappings are texture-size agnostic. If you want pixel-perfect alignment, you need to tell your DCC software that the map is intended to be used with a 64x64 texture, for example. Ideally it wouldn't then let you put vertices out of alignment with pixels.

If your software can't do that, just load a 64x64 grid texture and use it as a guide for vertex placement.

>>688439
What do you mean, be more precise.
You want a low resolution render with aliased edges? Use a tiny render resolution. Turn down the width value for the filter type. (Film tab in render settings)
If you want shitty looking textures change the interpolation to nearest directly on the image texture node (node editor).

I have made a few models as commissions for a guy who does that, but I feel it looks a bit washed out and "wrong". Guess it just feel it's strange because it doesn't look exactly like old games used to.
I think it can look a bit interesting with bloom (and no light sources), though:

You're doing okay but these all feel very similar as their bodies look almost identical. You mentioned using a base and I see what you mean. Bases might seem like good ideas, but only in the short run, like tracing drawings. If you learn how to actually create things from scratch, you'll eventually learn how to make whatever type of body you want. If you like how these bodies look then that's fine, but you having your models look a certain way should be a choice, not something that you're forced to do because you don't have the skills to do anything different. :)

Texturing straight onto the UVs is usally pretty difficult and time consuming unless you're doing something like a box (which even then you can't intuitively tell rotation and what not). I personally only import the whole texture into an image editing program for touch ups. Texture painting onto the model through Photoshop, Blender, or even Substance is far more intuitive. Although note Blender's texture painting is one layer only, so if you want to so much as change a color, you'll have to import that crap back into Photoshop and do it by hand.

Pretty much learn how to UV map good or bad (unintuitive at first but becomes crap you can do in your sleep after you get a hold of it), then you can choose whether to paint onto the model in 3D or do it in 2D.

The problem is that the vertex color data doesn't interact with the diffuse like it's supposed to. White is supposed to just let everything in the diffuse through, like alpha, but instead it just adds white to the surface.

Double check that your vertex colors are importing correctly, should be able to visualize them in the editor.

Depending on the result your programmer is searching for you'll need to do some color space conversions. Chances are your shader nodes of choice convert inputs to linear space but to get the proper oldschool shading you'll need all inputs back to srgb color space (for example by applying a gamma correction of 0.47, which isn't quite the right way but good enough an approximation) before the multiplication, and then shift the result back to linear space (with a gamma of 2.2) right before the output node.

Good for you anon.
If you would like feedback, I'm not an expert or anything... but to me, some of the scales look a bit too small compared to everything else.
The scales on the feet look about the size I'd expect, as do the scales on the back of the neck, but other scales look very small and that with the high color contrast and animation makes them feel distracting, especially on the tale where I can see the very small scales directly next to the larger tail-underbelly texture. I hope this helps.
(I'm actually trying to learn UVing and texturing myself, atm.)

yea, I think I see what you mean. there is no logic to dictate the size of a scale relative to the others. Since I am going for a "cartoon" appearance, I am considering not having each scale drawn as a detail, and rather, using the scales as an optional texture where shadows/highlights are prevalent. thank you, anon. feedback always appreciated.

To be fair, cel shading pretty much means "shader that takes inspiration from 2D". So I'd say unlit but meant to look 2D counts. JSR is pretty much the same thing but with one darker tone.

I wouldn't call him a "moron" because these days cel shading as a definition doesn't mean much.

not him but designers typically made their models this way back in the day. the reality coprocessor on the n64 was exceptional at rendering high amounts of vertices on the screen at once. The bandwidth of these processors were so high that it hardly mattered even then

Anonymous Wed Aug 14 16:00:23 2019 No.694204

>>694202
Hey just wanted to jump in and add a small correction. they actually did this because the n64 had problems displacing textures correctly as animations deformed the model. with the vertices there in those random positions, texture displacement was smoothed out. the whole model jitters and createes lots of visual artifacts if this was not done. The effects of not using this kind of geometry can be seen in ogre battle 64

It’s a blender add-on (currently only 2.79 I believe) that either lets you model in set square sizes (e.g. create a 16x16 textured face) or paint pixel perfect textures onto a uv.

that's, what, a 3d scan of a print? You can literally see the original polys under all that garbage. Also, even if that was a legit wireframe, that model only shows up at the very beginning and very end of the game, at worst there are only three other models on screen with it at the same time not counting the environment. Mario's wireframe would be much more indicative of the level of detail used for gameplay.

There you go. It's a skill gap.
I'll give you that there aren't too many "straight up" texture painting software without the procedural PBR fluff, and Blender is a pain at locking you to one layer. But even so, a bunch of it literally is just getting good at 2D art and getting used to working with low poly and its compromises.

Like, you can look at the image, and it's pretty direct. Low poly, stuff is separated into different sections, and it more or less respects the artificial limits imposed. What do you want me to say more than that which doesn't extend to just "how to color well" and "how to shade well".

It depends I'm not very good at 2D art, and just know my way around 3D art, but I think I can pull off that style *decently". The modelling part, low poly is about putting up with gotcha's all the time. You end up forming your own tricks how to speed things up, and you should be conscious of compromising rather than maximizing detail. Anything you can't fit in the mesh goes in the texture. It's so simple, but it's a bad habit for me and I waste hours on that crap.

As far as 2D art goes, we aren't talking *super pro level* being required to get something to look good. Just train both skills and make stuff, that's honestly the best I can give outside of specifics. Even if you don't turn into Capcom circa late 90s in a year, you can still make stuff that looks pretty darn good, and that's valuable.

Looks nice. UV mapping is annoying as he*k when starting out as it's unintuitive busy work. But once you get a handle of it, it's just mildly annoying busy work. And once you get fast it kind of becomes an afterthought on really simple models.
