I've made a first attempt at fitting the Mixamo control rig to the Makehuman model. It failed (for now) because I've deleted the fingers. I though it would work anyway, but it requires all the joints to be present. With some more effort I think I can make it work.

add a tiny bit of fill to the right, just to lift the perfect blacks up a little.
don't think of it as adding another light source - irl you would just get a white piece of card to bounce some light into that area. you could actually do that here, but it's cheaper to just add a very dim light.
i would also add one more light, very narrow spread cutting diagonally across the elements you want to highlight (going forwards, maybe start with this sort of thing. narrow light that focuses on what you want, then build outwards).
but you're getting better, good work.

[Anonymous No.944645]

>>944641
face proportions are fucked, eyes are too far apart, the space between the nose and mouth is too tall, the lips are all fucked lacking in shape, nose is really long, I'd say for the face the yes are too small, blinking is probably your smallest problem but the main issue is that you move the lower eyelid up too much, look at a picture of someones eyes closed, the top eyelid does most of the work.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQTa9UlZNUk
Also don't be such a pussy, remove the clothes and post her naked censored you little bitch, or else how can we critique her body?
Clothes need a lot of work, but I really can't help that much, I still have not figure out an effective workflow for making clothes in Blender, I can make very detailed ones, but they would be stupidly high poly, and Blender mesh to mesh normal baking works like shit 100% of the time, so clothes with stiching and seams is something I just can't do well.
Materials is a big one you need to work on too, I can see you are using lookdev, she looks as flat as workbench.

selecting the verts on the eye area + the eyelashes was scuffed and annoying, also the proportional editing was weird and the circle appeared not where my mouse was. Also this is windows 10

its my first actual face I've made in blender so yeah fully expected, and she doesnt have any holes or nips or anything so I hope I dont get banned. also have no clue what lookdev is

(also think the tutorial kinda sucked in many aspects, this is like my 4th tutorial ever and for what its worth im somewhat happy with the result even if its bad in many ways)

It's useful to have technical knowledge, so completing this until the end is good, but don't worry too much about how it looks in that case, you want to understand from the beginning how to sculpt, model, texture, rig, animate, it's all useful
Breasts and butt are way out of shape, well everything is way out of shape and could be improved significantly
After you complete the course don't polish your model leave it and start on a new project, consider practicing faces/anatomy.

they can catch you if you use a pirated copy along with a legit one. that's how they can get your email. Even then, unless you're from UK I really doubt they can do anything and would do anything to individual. They will go after companies tho, as will most software companies.
other than that, I'm willing to bet a lot of those horror stories are scammers. Get a copy with a crack from a shitty source, install it then get a message in your mail : dude, totally real Foundry here, you pirated Nuke, give us $3k or we'll pursue legal action"

[Anonymous No.944735]

>>944649
From my understanding actual artistic skill will always be infinitely more valuable than your understanding of a tool, essentially just the software, anybody can learn any software in a couple of weeks, basically like learning how to use a pen or a camera, but doing art with your tools I think is way more difficult, if anything I'd focus more on the fundamental artistic side of things, you can get a lot of mileage out of a decently put together model even if your textures are simplistic.

Imo in terms of more important to less important:
Model(shapes, volumes, anatomy) > Lighting > Textures

What a sperg, I even said that they should make their next project a practice for anatomy, did you even read? yes it is good to learn how to do everything so you can understand how they interact, learn some rigging to see how the mesh deforms so you can be better at topology, learn to sculpt because that's the foundation for a good model, it's always good to have an idea of how things are, and most concepts are independant of tools.
My god, get off your high horse.

[Anonymous No.944821]

>>944790
Yes. While I can understand staying in one software to do everything, Maya does a better job fixing meshes because you have better control of adding deleting single edges without ruining the model unlike in zmodeler, collapsing edges is a buggy piece of shit. Not only that, it does a piss poor job welding verts in radial symmetry

Just some stuff I'm working on

[Anonymous No.944849]

I'll be working on ACTUALLY finishing my stuff and posting it here.

Starting with V2 of one of my lion models:
* The idea is to convey more aggression through the facial expression.
* Bigger eyes for a more ferocious look.
* Separated several facial elements (tongue, fangs, eyes) into sub-tools for additional detail.
* Added additional secondary shapes.
* Added more pronounced cheek bones to convey expression better.
* Sculpting is rougher to emphasize certain shapes better.
* Added some poly-paint for better visualization.

Currently redoing hair and body almost from scratch, Current deadline May 15th to fully implement in unreal engine hopefully getting it approved for the market place.
I'll be making this model a statue prop since I don't have the time to turn it into a fully fledged
organic model.

You can break most complex things down into smaller shapes that are easier to model on their own. Then you can just do a rough blockout to see if the dimensions and proportions work out and model the parts one by one.

There are very few parts on that tank that would present a challenge to someone familiar with basic poly modeling techniques. Planning it all out and having it fit together in the end is the hardest part.

[Anonymous No.946021]

>>945968
>having everything nice and atlased on a single texture map is now considered a "dark age" workflow
That's not really what I meant. I didn't mean atlased textures are a relic of a bygone era, because they're not.
I mean that generally when doing retro styled stuff, a lot of people limit themselves to what's possible with the tech and workflows that were available at the time and make concessions (like texel density in this example), when you don't need to with modern day workflows. In some cases those concessions add to the charm, I'll admit, but if something like texel density is an issue and fixing it would mean a better end-product, I don't see a problem in being a little anachronistic.

>>946014
>sounds like UDIMs are a bit resource heavy?
If you're using small textures (I'm assuming since it's PSX stuff), I doubt the performance impact would be all that large. You probably won't be using some of the modern stuff like bump/normal maps and would just be using diffuse, so really it'd probably be like loading those textures in the first place. Not to mention that really you'd probably only need to use 2 tiles, it should give you plenty of room to work with and keep the texel size consistient. I can't imagine having 2 tiles would be any heavier than loading 2 textures.

I bought auto-rig pro, and I must say that it's one shitty add-on for its price. I don't see how it improves anything over rigify, and it has nothing on manually built rigs. The default reference bone positions are all wrong enough so that the user must position them manually anyway. The default weight painting sucks ass, so the user must paint it manually too. Hips and shoulders have no helper bones whatsoever, so they're completely and utterly fucked.

There's a thing with creating 'real' environments that people often forget, which is that lighting for everything is never an extreme sharp angle, like wha'ts on that cigarette tray there. everything has a SLIGHT bevel to it, even if it's barely there, aside from things like knives and such.

Another issue is that there's just really any serious variance in the textures, they just kinda tile alot and there's no signs of weathering, water damage, edge scraping, etc.

It also doesn't help that there's not really any secondary refraction, which makes it feel like a 90s POVray videogame render.

secondary refraction really is annoying to do PROPERLY, alot of the time the easiest thing is to just have really subtle seconday lights to fake it. If you need to do it properly, you're gonna need to do some raytracing and bounce light stuff that's honestly... not that great to set up.

As for texture? I'm not exactly the best to ask for this as I don't do alot of environment work. It's gonna be something where you'll wanna set up some node masks and vertex color or something to add secondary textures and decals to what you have. weathering is always kinda monotonous no matter how you look at it.

The extra brightness is helping alot there, it feels nicer already without looking blown out.

- blue you can still see tiling, better than before but still a bit of an issue
- orange: would like to see edge damage - geometry and texture
- pink: this detail should be geometry imo. you're not making a videogame.

blue box should have more geometric detail
air conditioners and their stands should have more geo. the underside of the air con esp needs work

the plastic pipes should have more grunge in between the corrugations(?, you know what i mean, the foldy bits, it's in your reference >>946348)

foreground wall should be brightened up - similarish to how it's lifted in pic-related

yeah - more geo in general, less reliance on textures to fake detail. you're not very polycount constrained

Been working on a weapon mod. I've been obsessed with keeping topo clean without blowing the tri count out of the water. Think I've done okay with that, gonna be working on the hi poly soon.

Pretty new and after doing some basic household items I figured I should try to polymodel a human at some point. Started doing basic random body parts and I just want to get the topology right, so I do not have to relearn everything at a later point.

This is the first thing that I am confident in. Took me literally forever, and it is very basic, but it is a start and I hope that I can at some point join it to other bodyparts, so I will have an easily adjustable basemesh at the end, that I can combine. Like human legos.

You know the anatomy but you don't "feel" the form, the anatomical key points might be placed correctly but they don't connect in a cohesive way

The hips bones are helpers for hips duh, they move along with the leg bones at the half of their speed
Knee bones are essential, it's not hard to implement them and they help a lot in making natural looking movement

Thing is I’m not sure how I should be grinding anatomy for something as simple as anime. There are some very good artists like lesly and Sakuramochi that take them to the next level but I guess it’s really just putting the time in over a long period. Kek I just want to make cel shaded anime girls like in genshin but studying anatomy is a plus to me.

looks good but keep an eye on the layering of the front left side of the hair, any reason they dont end be pointy maibe is a mix of a hime cut?

as a base mesh looks good, maybe adjust proportions and silhouette?? just select a character u like and try to make a finished piece

reposting from /ic/ (second begging source)

its hard because the character I'm making isnt muscular, and I'm trying to create a balancing area of defining the muscles and deflating them because he's thin. I'm looking at touken ranbu and Free! figures to see how pros sculpt anatomy onto anime bishounens. It seems like they just smooth it out though

I wanna get this down to 30k tris also which area should I focus all my polygons on????

[Anonymous No.947067]

>>946590
things to improve imo
-the mane looks over the top
-ribcage looks weird, more bulbous rather then resembling ribs, needs refining
-a lot of places where you can make up the stroke of the brushes, needs of refinement
-skin in between the jaws is to smooth, shows no signs of stretching
-his claws are retracted, but a screaming lion would probably also have his claws out, if only to add more dynamism to the sculpt. Unless he's yawning, then nvm
-i think the claws are a bit too high off from the ground
-the contact of the paws with the ground is weird and too straight, cats have toe beans
-eye shape is a bit wrong and if he's contracting the upper brow muscles, then the eyes would be partially closed and less perfectly round(pic related)
-the whisker holes should lose depth as they approach the nose
-the upper teeth between the canines look weird are too close apart
-maybe it's the angle, but the skin at the lower jaw should sag down a bit at the middle point, it just looks straight in your sculpt

[Anonymous No.947070]

>>947033
>area should I focus all my polygons on
1. places that you are important for animation: elbows, shoulders, knees, mouth/face. etc
2.things that are round and you want them to keep their roundness: tits, ass, etc

[Anonymous No.947129]

>>947067
Checked, thanks for your feedback.
Some of the brush strokes I'm keeping rather rough for the style of sculpting I'm going for, but i appreciate the rest of your feedback since I have zero knowledge on lion anatomy and I'm mostly relaying on observation.
