I'd do topology different but let's not even pretend like mine doesn't hhave problems. I get weird edges on otherwise flat normals.

Looks like you missed the bit on the ruderrion(?) where the top piece merges into the flat wing surface.

I appreciate the walkaround offer, but googling "x walkaround" gives plenty of high res photos thankfully.

>>526073

topology should be even as possible

Does anybody here have a good reason for good quad topology for hard surface models?

You cant use normals to make up for topology when modeling just about anything for simulator games since skinners need to be able to modify or even redo the whole thing using height maps to add rivets and shit.

Bruv, you dont seem to get this. When you even think about sculpting a human form, you're using your knowledge of anatomy. If you have no knowledge of anatomy, you're going to create a form that doesn't even look close to a human's form. This has been pointed out to you by different posters as well. You're confusing detail with anatomy. I've really tried to help you understand but your unwillingness to get this makes me think that you're comfortable with your own ignorance.

>>526142
>>526141

mods ban when?

>>526141

the importance of form and gesture is taught in every single medium of sculpting in the first sentence of every book relating to art and sculpture.

There's no shame in not knowing, but how are you going to improve as an artist if you refuse to learn?

Bye bye, kiddo.

Enjoy poly modeling your rockets and taking screen caps of the view port.

Your form is great dude. You're right about anatomy though. Maybe you could add more form to compensate?

All this chatter about form has got me curious. I always just tried to do anatomy and never actually studied anything about form to my knowledge. If I wanted to know more about sculpting form where would I start?

>>526221
at your pecs and deltoids, cuz that there is not how they connect.

>>526224
OP's a retard, dont mind him. your form is based on anatomy. Keep practicing your anatomy and your form will improve.

>>526221

imagine you had a side view and you hit V on your keyboard.

It would just be the silhoutte. If you took a fucking pen and outlined the fucking model, that is form.

YOU START WITH THAT CONCEPT AND PUT EVERYTHING ELSE ON TOP OF IT.

This is fucking debatable you fucking autistic retards.

download

any

single

fucking

book that references anything related to art

The first chapter is going to mention gesture and form.

If you're sculpting an arm, you need to have primitive shapes that ARE THE FUCKING FORM.

End of debate.

There is no fucking argument for this you fucking retard.s

>>526221

>I don't know what form is.

Anatomy is bad. Here we have it, folks. I think we have a winner in this form maymay.

>>526230
why dont you do us all a favor and scupt the form of a human arm with no knowledge of human anatomy.

You'd shut everyone up with this simple feat.

>>526226

Mods, if you are reading this. I will give you $400 dollars to permanently ban this person. Half upfront, and half when you deliver.

I'm not joking. I am serious.

Please.

There is a person unironically spewing this shit.

>primitive shapes are based on anatomy xD
>I don't know what form is
>I box model shape ships
>I know what I'm talking about.

>>526232

yes, but the people telling you that you're wrong are sculptors.

You have yet to post anything besides a poly modeled space ship.

blown
the
fuck
out, faggot.

>>526233
Even a stick figure is anatomy just as much as a primitive is. If you want to create a human in either medium, you need a very base level of anatomical understanding. You cant ask an alien to sculpt a human form or draw a stick figure with no anatomy reference or knowledge

>>526235
I didnt post the space ship. I posted the blob above that person. You're shitting on that dude for no reason. What I post is irrelevant though. We're arguing about the meaning of the word "anatomy", not your wips.

>>526236

Last time I'm ever going to say this shit to you. Good luck on your future space ship box modeling.

If you want to sculpt a face, you start with sphere, and a cylinder.
-Primary form.
If you want to take it to the next level, you put it in a little oblong cube 2/3 up the face to get a cheek bone. You would need anatomical understanding of the face to do that, but you what you're preaching isn't that. You LITERALLY said you don't start with form and add anatomy to it.

Every single sculptor that is worth anything is triggered by this statement.

>you don't start with form and add anatomy to you.

This has statement ruins my fucking day, dude.

It is so wrong that it makes me question how fucking stupid people can be, because you haven't even done a moment of research, but you're giving people advice on how to sculpt.

By the way, are you box modeling any new space ships? I'd like to see your work.

>>526237
grammar, but this place is a cesspool. It's anonymous, and there's no good sculptors that visit these threads.
ur gonna encounter people like this person you're arguing with.
there is no one defending him.
stop with this shit

>>526236

and btw, kiddo. I didnt make the thread xD

>>526237
I didn't even write that much and you still chose not to read anything. Its no wonder you dont understand this.

Take five seconds and do this >>526232. You lose as soon as you start using anatomy. Even from step one when you're planning on what primitives to use, you're already using your anatomy skills. Your choice of the sphere and cylinder is based on your basic understanding of human head anatomy. If you get triggered by this, you don't understand the English language.

>>526239
Never said that was the case. Only one talking about samefagging is the anon who wants an easy out from their logical fallacy.

>>526247

does any body else anatomy before form?

Then you're an idiot. A stick figure is the most basic form of human anatomy. Its the study of the structure of an animal, no matter how simplistic the representation.

Holy shit, this is still going on..
Still people with no argumentation other than "You're wrong"

And about those vids about sculpting, since nobody seemed to have looked on it.
https://youtu.be/2uhOEFNSMW8?t=29m30s

"What gives the form is the skull". @30:35

He pretty much explains that anatomy gives the proportions, measurement, form.. of the sculpt.

"Glauco Longhi, a Character Artist at Naughty Dog, explores how traditional sculpting foundations can set you in good stead for better digital models, and how to apply your skills from one medium to another."


Also, some guy made a thread on polycount apparently: http://polycount.com/discussion/171756/can-anyone-shed-light-on-this-discussion-on-3-form-vs-anatomy
Cherry picked comment :
"Form is a 2d shape represented in 3D.
A circles 3d form is a sphere, square is a cube, etc.
As far as anatomy is concerned, most parts can be broken down into simple forms for easier understanding/learning.
Thats really about it, there's no real "VS"."

Another one : "'Forms' and 'shapes' are just the visual simplification of anatomy."

Form is primitives, anatomy is application of those primitive to make your sculpt. If your anatomy is wrong, your overall form is most likely wrong since the form is based on your knowledge of what you're depicting (literrally the anatomy). This is same as 2D, except it's shape in 2D and form in 3D.

Stop getting butthurt and try to learn from your mistakes.

Polycount of the whole scope and edge density on the main tube is fairly consistent with the first person model of existing assets in the game.

Plus, it'll have plenty of LODs, so perf shouldn't be too much of an issue.

very neat, but have you considered a better/less stylized skin texture? The shirt and pants have obvious material to them and it looks good, and then you get to the shiny, hotdogs-fresh-out-of-the-package skin.

you forgot his belt, very unfashionable

>>526480
When you decided to reduce the number of edges on the tube, did you realize that it would make it more difficult to smooth? I think even Maya's edge creases might have trouble with that, if the edge wasn't 100% creased.

>>526655
I'm sure that's no the version he smoothed. I would model this with proper low poly topology first then duplicate it. Smooth the one with nice topology then optimize the other. then bake normals

As you can see, the edgeflow is more consistent

>>526638
This. It doesn't look bad, but there is too much contrast between the "huge" amount of detail of the clothes, and the plain, smooth material of the hair and skin.

This doesn't mean that you should add lots of detail on the skin and hair though, but at least try to balance it a little more.

>>526839
for maya it's crazy easy, go to the UV tab of options and select cylinder. Unless you're modelling like a madman it's going to perfectly line up with what you've got. Then you can adjust the cylinder by moving its manipulator boxes around or you can click on the little right hand angle and that'll let you rotate on the y axis if you need to for some reason.

Just google a video or mess around with it, that'll be a lot easier than me trying to explain it.

You should define the underlying bone structures better before adding more detail. The jaw bone should be smooth and straight. Skin taught over the cheek ridge. Make the chin/beak/nose thing smooth. Give it well defined edges and shape. Same for the forehead.

>>527156
It totally does look as you said and it's possible it might have been skewed when I rotated it for the render. I checked to make sure and my last save is fine.

polydensity could use some changes, I see you have 20 sided cylinder for a small detail yet the big cylinders which could use more sides don't get any. Try and keep the polydensity consistent, hide lowpoly shit where it's harder to see.

Also soften dem edges unless that's your plan.

Is this a smart way of going about it?

No, but seriously, form comes first to imitate basic anatomy, and only more form comes to imitate more complex anatomy. Though anatomy comes to mind first, but you technically start with form or else all you're playing with is empty space.

people parrot anatomy and form all the time when there is clearly no such thing as perfect anatomy in a model, the best we can do is scan stuff and study it and hope for the best possible results.
if your model looks like shit work until it resembles a creature/human.

>>527365
Aircraft panels are incredibly small, I'd add them in the way skinners do it. After modeling everything, unwrapping on a 4k texture file and draw the panels in with a black 1px brush on a 50% gray canvas. That's basically your height map. Use a plugin in Photoshop or GIMP to convert it into a normal map and use that. If you already baked normals on it, just overlay the panel lines normals onto your bake.

>>527410
Yeah, i'm not that new to modeling, i'm just doing my first aircraft, and i haven't modeled in a long time since not enough time.
I have thought of drawing the panel lines in, but i'd like to see how a normal map comes out when the panels are 3d especially since some panels go on top of other ones and such.

>I'll check it out, fampie. Still new to modeling and I have really shit topology atm.

The game has a model viewer but currently looking at the wireframe in it seems to be glitchy, i'd recommend ripping them with ninjaripper, even though with DCS the model will come out completely messed up with the pilots head being 1000s of kilometers big, while the plane is tiny in comparison, with a bit of selecting you can easily have the main shapes and take a look at each part.

Absolutely hate these questions... There literally is no real answer. It's like asking "how long is a piece of string?".

If you are a programmer, then you know how many polygons are acceptable, if you are not a programmer, TALK TO YOUR PROGRAMMER.

If you are just doing it for practice don't even worry about the polycount, just make it look good. Polycount can be scaled down easily, so rather use more than less.

Such a dumb question and yet it comes up every other day it seems.

>>527596

No don't touch it. Keep it like this.

>>527600
>If you are just doing it for practice don't even worry about the polycount, just make it look good. Polycount can be scaled down easily, so rather use more than less.

I'm sure you mean well, but that is the worst advice you could possibly give him. For any real time art, less is best. You should always aim to use as few triangles and verts as possible. Most new 3d artists make the mistake of adding more loops and rings than they need instead of focusing on silhouettes and topology.

Its actually very easy to scale up if you make the base correctly, and very hard to scale down if you don't plan accordingly.

Congrats on finishing the head. I think you should sculpt heads instead because it looks like you are thinking about topology rather than anatomy. It's prominent in the middle area above the eyes and the way the ear connects to the side of the head. The nose has no nostrils, the ear helix is too small and the jawline is non existent.

select your three verts and switch to scale. scale them along whichever axis you want the straight line on; ie, grab the red block and swipe towards the verts for a vertical line.

>>527950
I don't want the endpoints to change. I want the vertex in the between the endpoints to align to the line that exists between the two endpoints.

>>527952
unless you've been modeling to a grid i don't know if you could snap it.

if you wanted to ask me, making it exact would be a waste of time. you can eyeball it enough to where any difference on the y-axis would be hundredths of a decimal. it would take awhile no matter what you do, but consider that trying to get all of the y values precisely uniform with one another isn't really working smart.

leaving verts within x.x0 to x.x9 on an axis is still a straight line without a magnifying glass. it would look essentially the same and not involve all of the unnecessary work.

it was more of an exercise in learning 3ds rather than sculpting, but in terms of workflow is character modelling always done in Zbrush? am i just wasting time by putting off learning Zbrush until i feel comfortable with 3ds/maya?

Surely...bottom left is photoshoped in, right?

>>527972 Makes sense, looks like a satellite image as a texture. Interesting.

>>527970 That is the most realistic grass I've seen in a game engine, if it IS ingame. There's no way this scene would be playable realtime I'm guessing?

Thumb looks fucked though, and belt looks like clay.

Playing Doom a lot lately and was inspired to make my own version of the Doom Knight. Combined it with a turtle.

>>528031
fingers are still very much a work in progress.

Do you know how i can improve the belt? Im trying to make it look like shit worn out leather, i have a feeling it will help once i get a texture on it.

the eyes look great. the nose and mouth part is a bit too racist tho.

Thanks senpai.
I'm testing some displacement there. It's my first time trying to make fine detailing and shading, desu

My textures look like shit

>>528169
blender ?

>>528168
Yes because lets white wash all Blacks in 3D right? He got the lips perfect and the nose is stylized. Fuck off retard.

Thats a very offensive way to stereotype a black person and borderline racist. You need to go back to /pol/

>>528174
(You)

>>528174
He has a big nose and lips stop being a faggot. He didn't exaggerate it in a racist way that's just what he looks like. There is nothing wrong with having those features stop ignoring reality.

I dare you to tell me that he doesn't have those features in real life, go ahead

>>528176
If you exaggerate those features to such levels, then you're dumbing down a black person to the stereotypical black guy look. Is that really all your ass sees when you look at a black guy ? I'm honestly offended that every black cartoonish character is portrayed this way.

>>528177
but the actor looks like this I don't understand what you want him to do. Should he make him not look like himself?

>offended

Never post on 4chan again

>>528179
I want you to stop being a fucking racist and stop portraying black people in such a ridiculing stereotype. Is that so hard to comprehend ?

>>528179
stop taking the bait

>>528180
and dont you have better things to do?

>>528180
alright that fine but this particular black person has DNA that dictates his facial features. His lips are thicker than average and his nose is wider than average. There is nothing wrong with having these features you are in fact the racist if you thing this mans natural looks are racist.

Look at finn's actor. Look at him. Look

>>528173
I think he may be just a bit too light.
Not a joke or anything, it just seems like the actor has a darker skin shade than what you have now.

>>528173
this came out pretty good, you got more stuff?

>>528180
Youre seeing his stylized representation as similar to a monkey. No one has made that connection. No one but you is the racist here.

>>528208
Whoever did it intentionally emphasized the nose and mouth features in a ridiculing way just like how racists used to depict black people to make them look like monkeys. I'm not the one who modelled it I just want him to remove the racist element out of it.

>>528227
You're the only one being racist here by projecting your own views on how a person SHOULD look as opposed to how they actually do.

Thanks, anon.
I'm still working on this one.

I'm using this to study stuff.
As stated before, I'm still learning shading and texturing, so i'l trying out the development of maps in Mari and the creation of shaders in vray.

I'll show my progress in the next thread, thanks for the encouragement
