well, i stopped bothering to keep this within a reasonable poly count. I need to stick something on the bottom spire and make the top less boring, and then cover some of the more featureless surfaces with man-sized details since i haven't really been working off any kind of scale.

Isn't texturing straight out of the UV map a thing of the past ?

There many dedicated software that allow projection painting, and most sculpting programs as well.

>>511395

If you want a challenge, declare war on the polycount and replicate your render with normal / transparency maps.

Projection painting and painting directly on a cult are nice, but they still don’t have the flexibility that UV based texture painting can give you. I would say no. That being said, that UV map is next to useless because of the overlapping geometry.

There's not much to pulling verts and extruding edges around.

Right looks more natural to me, but that's just my two cents.
I know jack shit about anatomy.

>>511591
Both would actually be alright, depending. The collarbone becomes more visible when you are thinner- so its all going to depend on the build you are going for.

>>511584
>extruding Edges
Thats when you select a line and use the E tool and it basicly extends it and keeps the line from where you started right?

there are only 3 things you need to know how to do in order to model
move verts
cut edges
and extrude faces.

Extruding pulls components out and leaves behind more components. You know those play-doh push pumps? You put a star on it and you can make it push out a tube with a star profile. That's literally extruding.

I thought it was a kitchen. Not enough clues about scaling. The column sits oddly in the corner and doesn't look like it touches the left wall. And I know it's space/future but if those are supposed to be supposed servers then you should look up enclosed server spaces for ideas on design. They typically are either in areas with plenty of room for cooling or are connected to cool looking pipes and air/water cooling.

This. Now, if you has said ‘what’s an easy to use UV tool’ I could say Headus UVLayout is pretty easy, or Pelting Tools for Maya, or UV Master in zBrush…there are lots of choices but realize that all of them are going to require you to learn a process. Especially if you want to paint textures (without painting directly on the model), you’re going to have to learn the best ways to split and unwrap a given object, and realistically everyone has a slightly different way of unwrapping, say, a character head, or a car, or a house. See image- I use Headus UV Layout, this is how I unwrapped a series of misc. outdoor props for an environment, other people would do it differently based on the methods they are comfortable with and the intended use of the models.

>Where does the mesh come from ?
What do you mean?
>Does it look decent from an angle or is it just made to be looked at straight on ?
The mesh looks fine at an angle, but the animation will be mostly looked at from the front
>The mouth seems to be deforming pretty oddly. I'm pretty sure lips can't turn into a jagged sine wave.
Yeah, I was going for a wavy_mouth effect like pic. Did I overdo it?

>>512792

I meant when she cringes. It looks okay when she's doing the wavy_mouth pic you posted. Doesn't look there's enough mesh resolution to support it.

I was just curious whether you made the mesh or it was a premade one.

>>511463
Why bother making it "watertight" (manifold)?
The engines I have worked with doesn't care if you have intersecting parts. The GPU doesn't care. For example, the roof could be just two big quads.

There might be good technical reasons in some engines (like transparent objects and such), so please correct me if I'm wrong. I mean, surely noone is using vertex lighting or some such nowdays (and if they did, these ugly triangles you are forced to keep will ruin it anyway)

For sharp corners (as the 90 degrees you have here for environment assets) Z-ordering will not be an issue either.

>>512800
Mostly it’s out of habit- I come from making Quake 1 maps, where non-manifold environments were a big no-no. It doesn’t slow my workflow down any, as I have done it this way for decades now. There is in fact a fair bit of intersecting geometry (all the trim work, for example), but those objects are separate from the main ‘exterior’ object primarily because Unity does not like objects that intersect themselves, it causes rendering issues with things like shadow/fog volumes. That being said, it’s not watertight at all- there are plenty of openings (like the windows/doorways) that other objects intersect at.

>>512820
In addition to this, intersecting geometry can cause light leaks on the edges of the intersections when you are doing things like baking ambient occlusion which I then would have to fix in PS after the fact- something that takes more time for me than just modeling a component like an exterior without intersections in the first place.

I'm no expert on anatomy or everything so take this with a grain of salt, but IMO the ears are a bit too forward (or the back of the head is too far back), the lips look a bit off (maybe less of a point in the middle?) and the cheeks look a bit flat, maybe try to define the cheekbones a bit more? Pretty good though, certainly much better than anything I could ever do

I believe you have to unwrap so you can bake an AO map, diffuse and normals? a I going about it wrong?

>>512934
pbr has nothing to do with AO/diffuse/normal maps. if anything you're less likely to need to UV unwrap when using pbr workflows because you'll be painting / creating procedural textures and can get away with automatic unwrap/packing.

Why are you not using the advantage of UE4 like the best ambient occlusion system ever ? Every decent 3d hentai I saw had a bit of shadowplay going on with the models to give them some depth.

Also, why is she not nude ?

She has hard shadows but you can't really tell from the screenshot. Ambient occlusion looks shit on anime model faces. And hey, this is a Christian board. There are nudes, just not here.

>>513002
not on the face but like seperating the hairline from the head AOS does a pretty good job. Also you can crush the contrast and make the AOS look like seperate layers of hard edged solid shadow shading. And this is not a christian board, this is a wapanese weaboo board. post nudes. now.

I am not really an expert on mesh based game environments. (I know some source/hammer editor though)

Do you make a whole seperate texture for the house or do you select certain faces of the house and asign it a material(already inside your modeling software) so you can use the same material for multible buildings/objects.

File: Exterior.jpg (1MB, 2048x2048px) Image search: [Google]

1MB, 2048x2048px

>>513149
It really depends. A lot of games use tiled textures for a surface (say brick wall)- the advantage there is less texture memory used, disadvantage being every brick wall will have a ‘same’ look to it. I personally care more about unique detail, so for example I will use a 2048x2048 for the main walls of the exterior, and a 2048x2048 for the trims, so I can have unique detail. The disadvantage there is that I will lose texture resolution and use more VRAM. It’s all a balancing act based on your artistic needs. See image- this is the exterior walls for another building I did. If I had not gone this route, I wouldn’t have been able to have say the unique areas of regrouted brick, for example.

>>513150

Oh okay. I like that, looks very much like silent hill.

I personally prefer more "modular" because if you want to change something a little bit you might have to do the whole UV Layout and texture anew and that would just be too frustrating for me. I think you can do some nice looking levels just with box geometry + models (Like hammer editor) if you know how to use it but you will probably never get the unique look like the ps2 silent hill games had.

>>513154
I started out many many years ago with Quake maps, much the same sort of work as you would do in Hammer, with the same kind of texturing techniques. You are right about making changes after the fact requiring retexturing with my method- I had to do it once with the schoolhouse after realizing I had some scaling issues and it was super frustrating, but am glad I did because my texture game had gotten a lot better between the first texturing job and the second. It also taught me to be absolutely sure of the geometry before I bothered to UV/texture anything. I would agree that you can easily so some great work with modular pieces and tiled texture work- and with multi texturing and decals you can to a degree get around the repetition but as you said you will not be a bee to get that constant uniqueness you get with single maps for a whole object or group of objects. The game is going to be a survival horror joint, so SH was kind of he look I was going for to an extent, so thanks for the compliment.

What i meant was - is the way that light is being reflected (i.e looking like a hand-painted matte texture) the result of the way it's sculpted / a normal map, or is it using a reflection map, or is that a baked texture / paint-over?
The wood pieces really look like matte paintings (in a good way).

Aside from the low res textures, your lighting is coming purely from the candles, it has no bounce (real light would) and since each light is an identical color, there is no interesting variation where the light overlaps- even if you shifted each candle very slightly it would make the scene more interesting.

Breaking in a new tablet.

Pretty happy considering I've never done any female anatomy, and it's been years since I've done any sculpting at all.

Simple and probably stupid question, but I'm trying to learn how to model for Unreal engine, and I'm wondering if everything on my model has to be a single mesh or if I can have multiple intersecting parts. I read that you should try mimic reality as much as possible and only attach parts that logically would be part of a single object, but I don't know if that's true or not

Wanted to make something reeeally simple for my first scene. Trying to make it photo realistic. Here's the base model and a quick rend. No textures yet. A few questions:

1. In a scene like this what would you recommend for the lighting. I only have the sun lamp atm.
2. Any tips to make glass look more like glass.
3. The background is currently only an unwrapped plane. Recommend something better please.

And everything you can think of. Thanks.

Step 1, just make the scene first but dont set up any rendering stuff for it
Step 2, take it into unreal engine
Step 3, use its documentation to make its photorealistic materials
Step 4, prophet

why would you use unreal when you can use an actual rendererereer

The hair was meant to be simple and "girl next door" but I get what you mean about it looking creepy, almost like a pelt rather than delicate hair.

I have worked on a new hair style that is more in keeping with her dress and reduced the size of her brests to make her look more anatomacally more correct.

Now the rocks have dirt and grass under them. I fiddled with an alpha map in Photoshop and Maya's layered texture node to make it do the thing.
