Fuck i haven't made anything new in ages. I recycled some space station thing i posted here a few months ago into something more appealing.
I've been meaning to learn substance painter but haven't got around to it. Would it be hard to create a material library with substance and apply it to something like this? Most of the pieces on this are merged into large segments; i don't know if that would make it difficult.

Also, is marmoset still (one of) the best real time renderers? Maya viewport still has shit point lights that can't cast shadows, and can't do post effects like glow.

One more for today.
I actually do think he's too black.

>>530741
It's okay anon, don't worry,
I love /3/ because there's no restraint.
If anon thinks that a minor detail is subpar, they'll ruthlessly go at it like wolves to a lamb.

Sure, they could make more constructive critiques, but at the very least, they're honest. Too bad it has been only racebaiting so far.

>>530713
Are you getting simlar results?
I mean, it's obviously a great engine wich gives fast results, and it's pretty impressive what the VFX artists were able to do with it in Gravity, but I wonder how much of it was fixed in post vs. how much was actually rendered.

>>530743
Would you mind being more specific, anon?
I'm not even being sarcastic, I really would like to know how I can make it better, objetively.

>>530753
Hey bro, Would you mind if I give you a tip?
Try blocking main volumes first. Check out how Bammes did his stuff, it's pretty straightforward and great to sculpting.

>>530784
Could you possibly make it more offensive ?

>>530787
It's extremely common for black people to have black, curly hair, brown skin, large noses, and large lips. So what part of this character offends your delicate sensibilities?
Or is it that a black person is using a blue lightsaber that is upsetting you?

>>530790
> exaggerating the black guy stereotype
>>>/pol/

>>530784
I think your character looks nice and cute.
The only thing i somehow dislike is the choice of proportion. Too short limbs imho (or too small head?). I would either increase the size of the head so that it resembles japanese chibi style more, or make him taller. But thats just my taste.
Skin material looks good, leather jacket is ok maybe too glossy, pant material is too dull and boring, shoe material is just wrong, the sole looks like half metal and the shoe like plastic/styrofoam.
Shirt and pants could be more lighter and have more color saturation and variation.
Sculpt him some cloth creases, maybe change the collar of the jacket (looks too stiff).
Give him some fingernails, hands look strange without it.
With the exception of 3 little details, everything is symmetrical, you might want to put more asymmetrical details in there. Could be mostly texture variations.
I don't know how much you want to keep a cleaner more stylized Pixar look or if you want to get more realistic.
I would make him look more dirty/scratched/scruffy even bloody, like he is coming straight from a Stormtrooper massacre.

>>530784
I think what he >>530743
meant to say is that the shading and color of the jacket in this image >>530697
objectively looks like fecal matter.

Fix your proportions like everyone else said.

I legitimately want to make it better, but I don't understand whats wrong with the anatomy. Please elaborate

>>531088
Put a lowpoly basemesh of a male in there and fix the disproportional parts.

>>531094

yeah this is a good idea, it's always best to model clothing around a character.

If you just start making clothes it's hard to figure out the proper proportions.

>>531093
When a person has their arms down and relaxed, the fingertips should be a little above the knees. The arms on this should be longer, or the legs should be shorter.

This guy also has an 8/1 body to head ratio, so he's going to look really tall. That's fine if you want that, but just try to get things proportioned right.

>>531161
>>531164
Time well spent. Looks good.
Saber is still WIP i guess. Scratches look unnatural. (too thick, too deep)
I think you should model some more details on that saber.
Do you use something like Substance/Quixel or 3D Coat for texturing?

>>531161
Good progress!

The shader on the shoe upper looks too obviously procedural. It needs logical scuffing and wear.
The lightsaber's scratches seem half assed. Like why would there be those little scratches in the area where he'd hold the saber? Spend some more time thinking about that.
Stylized toy-looking sculpts like this tend to benefit with pushed SSS so try increasing it in areas like the nose and eyelids.
Lips feel like they could do with slightly more sharpness in the specularity/bump. Since they're a similar shade to his skin it could make them pop better.
You should work on the way the eyebrow hairs flow and taper off, it's somewhat unnatural and very obvious where the cg hair roots are.
His hair density needs to have more variation in the hairline, especially on the sides, as this will allow the transition to feel more natural.
Jacket and t shirt are looking good, but the tee looks a bit washed out.

In addition to what he >>531169 said.

I am not a pro when it comes to such subtle details on characters, but couldn't he put some details on the skin texture right below the brows to make it blend together better?

Same with the Hair - darken the skin below the hair to simulate hairshadow and make it look more dense?

>>531142
is it fallout 4 super hammer and you attached fusion cores to hitting part?

>>531161
>>531161
the only criticism I have is that he does not look like that SW(forgot his name) guy as caricature goes, besides of that he's black, his jacket and saber.. he looks more to boondocks kid 3d model. but maan, textures and overall look is amazing !!! i hope I'll get to your level in the future

I'm working on assets for a game with a low poly/pixel art style.
On some of the more complicated models, most a lot of the faces share the same area of the texture file, for example all the spindles on the stair have the same texture on all 4 sides.
Is there some quick way to select all those faces and just assign them to one 'island' in the UV editor in blender?

>>531161

why does a jedi knight wear a stormtrooper t-shirt ? ever think about that ?

>>531170
That's what I said on the last wip thread when everyone was praising the hair.

Thank you very much for the tips on the scratches.
Yeah, but I ran out of time. Can't keep dragging projects like this, I have to put an end to this one so I can begin another.
Right now I'll only get diminishing returns if I don't go to something new.

Used some reference pics of a character to make a base mesh. Biceps are huge as fuck, but I blame the reference in that.

Gave him some boots, but didn't add any edge creasing so it looks like garbage at the moment. Using OpenSubDiv.

Have a bit of pinching near his ass. Will fix that.

Reference images were of Captain Falcon. Yeah, I could just grab his model from Smash4, but it feels better to make my own stuff.

Will start detaching as clone and making accessories soon. Anything off? The forearms have been bothering me, but I'm not sure what to do.

Boots need straight up editing, need to look at some soles and see where I fucked up during extrusions

If you're not doing fingers you could try thinner arms and bulkier fists. It's fine as is though.

Is the blue thing a face or an eye? Would it work rounder? Can you make it glow?

The rocks look very organic. I don't think you would get that sort of edge in real life. I don't mind it though. It looks a bit like coral.

The overall colour of the rock is quite consistent. Would you be able to add some large-scale variety, like making it's legs and body gradually get darker downwards or something?

triangles are a no no my friend. Also treat it like a pair of pants. The woven threads are always in line with each other. Here at the heel you change the direction from horizontal to vertical. The lines should stay mostly horizontal

Ahh, right. I did miss that tri. As well, I did intend to keep it all going in one direction, but that became an issue with trying to round off the heel. I ought to take another crack at it, I know how much that'll mess with the completed model.

Is it just me or is symmetry painting with normals in the 3DO window broken?

I also noticed when I exported this model as an FBX from blender I wouldn't see my masking strokes appear in 3DO or be able to apply them either. This Obj seems to work well though and has proper smoothing information. DDO hasn't given me nearly as many problems when I've fooled around with it.

Model is for a game I'm working on in Unreal by the way.

Look at pictures of Zeros and trace out the panel lines. Learn where the oil/exhaust fumes would accumulate PR streak and emulate that on your skin. Add a bit of noise, wear and tear (paint chipping) and you're pretty much good to go.

>>531642
Eye texture needs a LOT of work. And ears looks absolutely fucked.

Looks uncanny because you haven't really decided on how old the person is. The face generally looks rather young, except for around the eyes. The throat has the general shape of an old man but the skin seems too tight to be all that old.

Then again, it might just be my bias since that's how all the people around me age, you might have different references.

Just my two cents

>>531648
Those eyes are actually placeholders until I work on them.

What about the ears is fucked?

>>531629
At different times in the process I used mirror, I applied the modifier when it came time to rig but used mirror again when I had to tweak some of the geometry.

The NDO symmetry weirdness in particular seems to be with brush rotation (which is a problem with irregular shaped decal type brushes) and when using the shift key to try and make straight lines. Free hand lines with circle brushes always seem fine... which is too bad I'm not good at doing those straight by hand otherwise panel lines would be easy.

It will look decent for a phone game. For a simulator or something else, you'll need to go in depth. Panels should be about 1px and not completely opaque, I would do a dark brown color for the fuselage and wings with and completely black for the engine cowling, and set the opacity to about 50%.
Add soot, oil streaks, exhaust stains, paint chipping etc. Remember that these planes were mass produced and not exactly perfect like today's jet fighters. Vibrations caused oil and fuel to leak a little, and the paint wasn't exactly high grade.
Look at Simmer's Paint Shop. Although they've died out a bit, they still have some useful tutorials still on the site.

I started using it doing a Raichu, I found pokemons to be simple and easy to practice, not experienced enough to being giving tips but I find inflat brush usefull sometimes, working with hiding polygroups makes it easier to focus on specific parts without the whole model showing up and the layers system is something you should totally check, same with zspheres

>>531500
This is adorable, but arent there waaay too many polygons for the art style? you could probably have a fraction as many, which would make everything else easier too

Slightly confused how I should approach the scarf, but I'm satisfied with how the rest is going. Still lost as to how I can use opensubdiv and edge creasing to make the heel of the boot have a hard edge, though. Is it even worth using OpenSubDiv as opposed to Turbosmooth and smoothing groups?

Will start on adding the outer flap of the jacket, the end of the scarf hanging out, and the shoulder pad.

Beginner here. This is my second model made out of multiple objects. Here's the first one:
>>530084
Critique needed.

Is there a paint bucket feature for just dumping an alpha texture on a surface rather than painting the whole dang thing? zbrush by the way

>>531932

surface noise.

>>531934
I'll check it out, I have a leaf pattern I want to dump brush on to the object but I'll figure it out thanks.

my mistake there
I cut out some parts before using the modifier and now I'm having a shit time optimizing

how?

I started to learn 3 hours ago. Making the To Be Continued Arrow.

I figured out how to make the arrow, now I need to learn how to make textures.

Made the jacket flap, fold, scarf, and some hands. Not worried about it being extremely anatomically correct as it'll never be seen terribly up-close. I'll probably re-model the glove flaps when I take a look at some artwork of the guy.

Biggest things left are the right shoulder pad, shoulder pad spikes, kneepad spikes, helmet, and head.

Then it's off to ZBrush.

Like you break out of every stupid habit....
Stop thinking about it, and DON'T FUCKING DO IT.

Use your brain. You don't know shit thats why you produce shit. Whats the solution?

Instead of wastig time, learn how to do it right.
Its not THAT difficult.
Here, go through that list and learn and understand:

Make sure the knobs can be rendered with a metal look, if you're going to texture it.

Anyone know any simple computational-fluid-dynamics / areodynamics simulation software?

Very very new to modeling, just picked up Wings3D, love the simplicity, just need to arrange new hotkeys thats all! First UV map job too.

It is my first ever sculpt.
I feel like I have talent for this,
it is basically done but can someone give me advice on the eyes or something else you see

>>532084
do the eyes separately
or if you don't care just use bubble/inflate brush to create eyes.
when finalizing the sculpt you might want to give it fake hair via some light strokes using the clay strip brush
i never liked dynamic topology i always use base meshes for sculpting

>>532085
thanks for the help. what do you mean with maek the eyes seperately ?
When use sculpt in blender you usally mirror it by default

>>532086
no i mean only if your model is for animation.
if its just a sculpt you can sculpt the eyes ontop of the head.
nah i don't mirror it at first, i usually start with a mirrored object or a sphere and then i enable/keep symmetry on.
its not crucial to keep symmetry on certain objects. a tree for example would need individual strokes because the branches pull out to many different sides so symmetry is not needed

>>531825
>>531861
No stay away from VUE. Its shit, it has a terrible UI, it is buggy and unstable also a memory hog and renders as fast as a glacier moves.
Use Speedtree for Vegetation and Worldmachine for Landscape, Arnold for rendering. Or if you feel adventurous take a look at Isotropix Clarisse (for rendering).

>>532087
makes sense, the eyeballs are seperated, tho
I am going to upload it on turbosquid as my first thing

trying to make an autobot head, think im doing alright guys

>>532117
why not sculpt, and retopo it ?

>>532119
ice onbly just started 3D modelling from my tutorials and lessons I thought retopo comes at the end?

Im using maya and just blocking out the forms right now

>>532119
This is what im trying to do

thought it would be best to start on something easy for my own project without help, otherwise might get too complex plus ill be able to practise geometry

New and (hopefully) improved. Tried to get as much detail in as i could in the texture, as its not very large (1024x1024).

Is the weathered paint/dirt too over the top?

>>532117
Don't pull around vertices like that, creating large polygons in the process. What happens later is you will go back and start trying to knife/cut edges in to fix these later and it will just eat up time trying to get nice, clean quads out of it.

I'm not really sure how you managed to do that with the nose anyway... You should've just extruded it out from the edge flow you already had going there as shown at the bottom.

>>532145
why did you deleted the rust? that was a nice detail

>>532147
Other guy pointed out rust wouldnt happen for decades, so i traded it in for good ol dirt

Honest thoughts?

>>532171
It's alright for a WIP.

Don't overdo with mesh details (all the redundant piercings) - better add different types of scales for details (normal texture).

Also consider using 2-3 differnt types of teeth (bigger for canini, for instance). Copy-pasted Elements tend to bore the Viewer quickly.

looks a bit low poly,
at least make it smooth shading and optionally subdivide it
Texture looks ok but visually unfinished

the eyes do not fit to the model. make them an minimalistic version of the pic I give

>>532199
btw the model is low poly )) I've posted some days ago model that I created in fuse then reshaped etc.. that's this model, and geometry is not smoothed either, just messing with textures, nothing more

hey thanks for the advice ive given up, thought a simple geometry head like an autobot would be easy.

I found some head tutorial on youtube there is this one SICK guy but he's way too fast and I have no idea what he's using I think it's the Vertex Merge Tool but it's not in Maya 2017 so i just gave up I dont know what the fuck to do! I really want to master this!

This was my last attempt, after pressing 3 to smooth shade. I couldnt add edge loops around the eyes, it just always stayed circular no matter how many times I tried to fucking do it. Just wanted that hexagonal slit for the eyes! FFS!

you can see the edgeloops here from the digital tutors stuff i was learning but its not working.

>>532233
>>532233
>>532234

So basically I'm going back to do some homework and learn how to model a head properly.

I tried to move vertices from a cube into the right place but it's not working so maybe if i learn to do a human head a couple of times it'll be better experience before jumping into this?

Im not giving up though I've only been using Maya for 4 days think I've made big progress. So you'll see me back trying to attempt this soon.

>>532235

So my 5th day learning, I decided to focus on head, seeing as I tried to jump in so hard straight away this is what I've done so far! Cant wait to continue tomorrow and progress further.

I'm quite happy with myself because there is not 1 N-gon, and I've been told to avoid 5 edges and more polys.
