Here is the multicultural one!

the lack of any hard edges is really off putting. he looks like he's made out of clay. also the hair being nondescript blob is very gross looking. either way here's your (you)

sorry m8, look at some cartoon references before moving forward with your project, I don't wanna be an asshole here but I highly doubt anyone will ever take any interest in something looking like this. Practice much needed.

You shouldn't be using it at all because it's inaccurate.

and yet sanic exists

I wish they would deprecate features more often in 3D.
There's too much shit in the average 3D modeling package that you apparently shouldn't be using but wouldn't know otherwise unless you were actively keeping up with the times.

tell us how you modeled the head

kys maybe

show us the model

pull off the grip pattern and the engravings.
other than that, not bad

>>578829
The shape of the grip looks fucky but it could just be the FoV + angle. If you based it off a side view of the real thing it should probably be fine.

5 hours seems on par to get this much stuff done, assuming you're doing it with subd modeling (control loops everywhere) and are actually trying to get clean geo and all your details. It might be a bit slow to get to that point but you'll pick up speed with experience.

Good assets take a lot of time to complete. Two weeks would be a rough estimate of time to fully make a detailed first person weapon, or complex hero prop in a game (from initial high poly to final textures). Most of the time will be spent on your HP and texturing, with a smaller (but almost equivalent) amount of time to make the LP, UV it and bake.

>not rigging manually
I bet you also eat pineapple pizza.

if you have IK its best you to make the controllers yourself

>>578746
And that's a fair comparison how? I despise Hawaiian pizza (and Hawaii and pineapples in general). I'm just fucking shit at rigging.

>>577453
It will never happen. Please fuck off.
Unless you want to talk about AI that is smart enough to do this on its own, in which case >>>/g/

Probably like 100-200 years minimum.

>>577510
lol no

10-20 tops

most 3d objects, including characters etc will be created just using neural networks using photos and keywords as guides

you can probably already automate every /3/ process in theory, it's just gonna take a while for the infrastructure to get aligned

also applies to rigging, animating and what not

blender noob here but ill at least bump you and give u a suggestion.

it would be easier to assess your problem if we could see it, but im pretty sure blender wouldnt make you redo the whole damn thing, maybe just something small. i think the "stitch" function might do what you want it to do after unwrapped the part of the mesh you just remodeled, but if its something that stretches out like a bear hide it might be a little dificil

>>526260
you already made this thread. Yes you have to Unwrap the UV for the polygons that you change, but you can keep the unchanged ones by pinning the vertices in the image window with P. Check the Blender documentation for further info.

is this a thing now? will this thread be around for years to come?

I too tried recently to render a character with the inverted normal hull method in Cycles, but i failed.
Might be my lack of knowledge of Cycles, or it isn't possible.
It works however flawless in Blenders old Internal render.

>>578671
i want to avoid using blenders internal render since i already have shaders set up for the cartoon-like shading im going for

pic related, old render but all of the shader settings are in place

if nothing else works, what I could do is render the outlines as an alpha layer in Blender internal (white outline mesh, black duplicated makoto mesh, black background) and then superimpose that over the outline-less cycles render, I just want to know if theres a way that requires less work

>>578674
Lets just hope somebody with more knowledge comes around and tells us.
I am really interested in an NPR anime like style, but if all fails i just render in C4d's sketch and toon or Mental Ray.

>>577981
>no glitches or anything

don't worry, they'll come.

also try Zbrush's automatic projection

it's still bad but better than maya's or whatever you're using for organic meshes

>>577982

>don't worry, they'll come.


Like what? Genuinely curious

>2017
>still not using PTEX
its like you want to fail

>>577102
you fucked up somewhere.
google a "face topology" picture and rip it off.

>>577137
It's a very low poly head, the topology is more or less correct. Just fix that damn nose.

>>577772
Also the cheeks looks like they're sucking on something

Lots of people in my hometown don't know shit about 3D yet everyone and their grandma wants it. So local commercials, churches, music videos for people. I also am a filmmaker and musician so I composite little things for my shorts and I use 3D live with my music.

I tried to get into the unreal marketplace but I didn't stick with it. No matter what, you are spending time on something that may be worth nothing. So keep that in mind not to be discouraged through marketplaces and stuff online but I've had way more success with people/groups in real life.

Everyone wants 3D but they either don't know what they want, demand months of work and expect it in a week, or become fucking cheapskates when you bill them for your time.

But it's decent money. Branch out to what you feel comfortable doing and gather experience from there. Practice every fucking day as well.

>>578366
Cool thanks for the advice

I work a real job.

>>577090

You have to do that by yourself retard, combine both meshes, Snap each border side vertex to each other, go to edit mesh and merge them(0.05). (Obviously all of this after dup special with instance)

>>578486
>You have to do that by yourself retard,
Is that a joke? Is Maya really THIS far behind? Autodesk fags on suicide watch.

>>578547
