download blender and do some basic tutorials

what's the problem? What you need is a circumference with a 45 degree inclination in isometric angle. Shouldn't be hard to do. Use descriptive geometry methods if you want it to be perfect.

dropped example pic

sweet, thanks for responding
there's only 1 problem: how do I go about following your example pic?
if you don't wanna waste your time explaining, please refer to a site or whatever where i can read up or something

>>554232
Make the other two edges coming from that corner beveled as well. It'll still be flat but it'll continue the edge loops made by the bevels

Thanks for answering so soon, also ckecked.

I tried that before, but somethimes it gives smoothing / subdiv errors (pic related); less ugly than before, but still not optimal...

anyone else feeling that way?
I don't follow any 3D artist but I do with literally hundreds of 2D artists.
modeling is fun to me while drawing is nothing but a chore. I'm ok at it but it's no joy at all.

>>552534
Look up some NPR (Non-Photorealistic Rendering) and you can make your 3d models and art look 2d.

If I'd want just that, I wouldn't be posting here. Besides, I've already seen them. I need something, that'll say about exchanging entire parts of vehicle. The closest example of what I mean was in game Space Rangers 2, where you decided about the type of chassis, weapons, modules etc.

>>554122
For a vidya? I have a similar thing in my head, but I think I'm just going to make every object have a different set of hitboxes/attach points. Have a mecha class that accepts chassis/turret etc. as parts and have it handle the hitboxes/attach points associated with those parts

*but obviously

This is with texture and a light source.
I know, the the texture is shit, I draw them myself and I have 0 experience with drawn art. I'm going low budget. (If you have any tips about textures too, I wouldn't complain)

>>552449
Thanks for any feedback or help.
Please don't be unnecessarily mean or harsh.
And keep the blender discussions somewhere else.

When Creating depth to a background Image Does it count as 3d if the background elements are 3d even tho it's made up of many layers of 2d?

trying to make 2d background but I want the 3d touch in the background just wondering Thx

like this

the buildings are 3d and the birds

but particals and the HUD is in 2d?
still 3d system or a 2d with perspective?

Correct me if I'm wrong:
Bump map simulates a more complex surface but is actually flat.
Displacement map actually deforms the surface (even if it's just a simple plane)

If so, why not exclusively use one or the other?

Clothes such as complex dresses eith multiple layers seem so realistic. Is Marvelous Designer used? Or is it sculpted in something like zbrush? If so, are there sotes which teach how to create the items realistically, i.e. like a real dress, with thickness and hollow inside?

In the same vein, how do people "simulate" hair? Do they sculpt and shape it? Or is there some way pf simulating?

Do a better job next time

Also lighting seems very shiny

Thanks ! I'll make it nice

Too much noise.

>Unity

lmao

wow this is a really COOl post my man really good post I'm reading it I read it 5 times by now oops I read it 7 now hahaha I can't stop reading your post I want to marry this post now that I think about it really GOOD post I'm just kind of not even sure how to proceed from here ahaha I'm a little nervous sorry

>>553448

Are you upset no one plays your Unity trash?

>>551574
PS has a built in tool to make normal maps or you could use crazybump.

>>551574
that honestly seems to be more of a lighting fault than anything, have you tried playing with lighting in your scene? Notice how the MindTex preview has a few strong light sources (with varied colors and positions), while your marmoset scene has some really uniform diffuse lighting and nothing else.

>>551574

I know crazybump adds a displacement map in the viewer, dont know about the other program. Try importing the displacement map as well to see if it's the same as the other viewers.

if these panels are solar arrays, it's kind of a bad design though. half of them would always point away form the sun.

honestly i can't answer this.

if a student comes to me and says he want to make cartoon characters and the other wants to make realistic ones. there is an entirely different set of techniques and rules those two must follow.
so i can't really give any begginer or advanced student an advice.
trust me i wasted alot of time on rendering and lightning and i end up eventually doing realtime graphics, this effort could have been concentrated somewhere else.

5 years of 3-8 hours a day learning,
including watching tuts for the first 3 years
It is possible to get into a low job like <4 man mobile game studio or so, after 2-3 years .
Honestly make a good knowledge of videos ( youtube isnt the only source for good tutns, go to cgpeers.com for ex.)

-Polymodeling

-Subd modeling (basics, at least understanding how it works)

-Basic hard-surface techniques

-Basic sculpting

-UV unwrapping

-Textures and materials (PBR material properties)

-Basic lighting (how to present a model)

-Real life material details/studies (understanding how objects are made, proper use of screws/details/etc, adding wear)

-High->low poly baking

-Videogame modeling/texturing (if going into vidya)

-Anatomy basics

-Advanced organic modeling (sculpting humans, maybe animals)

-Rigging

-Animation (really vast topic, can be learned earlier or separately, and should probably start by using others' rigs)

-Cloth sims/sculpting for characters

-Design theory (composition, colors, balance, story, etc.)

-Advanced lighting (environment)

In that particular order, won't make you a master without practice but should cover all the important fields. There's obviously some stuff you can skip if you don't need it, say character modeling if you want to do environments, but on the other side being remotely proficient at modeling and texturing props is very helpful towards making good character models.

Also learning anatomy is kind of a bitch, it's a big investment and takes significantly more time and effort than a lot of the other steps.

Learning design should come last, so you have practical skills you can immediately apply your knowledge to, and not first like they teach at my retarded school, so you know all the intricacies of 1980s russian cinema but can't bake a normal map.

4chan really isn't the place for this kind of stuff. There's no insurance on good conduct or safeguards against theft and fraud.
You're better off finding people irl at game dev conventions.

>>553707
you paid in game codes, what did you expect?

>>553709
I understand. Like I said, just warning people because he posts on many different sub boards of 4chan about various things. He's a scammer. I wish there was something I could do but it's too late
