Don't be too down on it. I got that bad boy in the Goblin hoard. And I *think* it's also the gun being used in the drive-by.
As for advice, I guess it depends on what you want to accomplish with it. If I were you, I'd maybe plug your texture into a bump node, with a color ramp in between, to make the engravings have some surface detail. It's a quick and dirty thing, but still. I'd also pay attention to the texture on your barrel, it definitely looks stretched in places.
The unlit look isn't doing your model or textures any favors either.

With all that great free real-estate on the machine's screen though, why not put it to good use? Even left some room for some more heads.
But yeah, generally I have to come up with creative places to put heads without bodies. I'm kind of partial to the 3 heads on the fleshy pedestals. Don't know if anyone got it, but it was kind of a nod to those singing busts on the Haunted Mansion at Disney. It's a stretch, I know, but that's what I was going for.

Self depreciation and mid life crisis aside i've learned how to make anime hairs but i still stuck at painting. And this model has been WIP for a month now. I should pick myself up and actually finish it. I've stopped talking to the client too and he was a nice person. Man this sucks.

Blender n00b here, how can I add detail (crevices, bumps) on this wee little tankard I made? The image texture came with no other maps, no normal, no bump, no AO. Also how do I make the metal more shiny and only it? I have both the wood and metal image textures on a single image, I'd like to make this a game-ready object (306 faces are within acceptable parameters for a prop like this, I hope)

That really made by one person? Different parts all look like they're made by completely different artists.

Head is full on cartoon weeb with dimensions associated with spindly stick bodies ala evangelion/sailor moon.
The body is curvy but stocky looking like a fitness model in some areas and like a middle age beach goer that had a few kids in others.

It's strange to me how anyone with the skill to make any part of that would have a weird enough taste to combine features like that.
I would have guessed that was a frankenmesh made out of haphazardly combining different peoples work.

If I made a weeb character I'd look at resin figures and match the bodytype and detail to those to go with the 'grey alien' style manga head.

When the body all of a sudden has realistic details and build to it it looks so stylistically disjointed.

ofc I don't blame you for thinking that but you'd be amazed what the coomer brain can do when you start ignoring standards. If you look at Qi sheng Luo, he has a few sculpts like this. I guess you can call it I'm going for that style?

The goal is mostly to practice anatomy which obviously animu weebers lack. Nothing more.

That Qi sheng Luo guy was very skilled indeed googled him, not a coomer at all but a complete top-tier do anything kinda artist.
His anime looking works are more in the style of Blade of the Immortal or Berserk.

You can combine realistic bodies with those looks since they're not full on cartoon but more like this mangaesque realism.
Those characters have realistic features like eyelids, nostrils, full lips, eyeballs are more pingpong sized than tennis sized and their jawlines doesn't terminate in wedges.
With that level of facial realism you can have a full anatomy without it clashing.

>it looks so stylistically disjointed.
True, but this is obviously because you went for the extreme 'grey alien' style. If you make the face more realistic in its proportions, the disjointed effect goes away. IMHO grey alien style doesn't match realistic shading at all, I would only use it if I intended to imitate a 2D look with diffuse painting only and without realistic lighting.

How shit are we looking so far bros?
Some things I know are wrong and some things I don't know how to fix.
For example.

I know none of it makes sense. I was just wanting to try out using the correct scale for things instead of doing it by eye. I made the coffin and then thought "yeah, I know I'll turn it into a kind of hidden room inside of a cave with ice on the walls and all of this cool shit" (hence the New Swabia map), but then I quickly remembered I don't actually know what I'm doing and I was being too ambitious. So I changed it to just Hitler's coffin chilling out in a generic room that seems to double as both a research area and a security office of sorts (that's what those grey box things are on the table, I'll get to those).

The grey box things on the table are supposed to be like camera monitors. I have images on the screens as if they're a feed, but they don't show in the render (they do in Eevee) and I'm not sure why exactly.

The little red warning light thing has a cage around it because I wanted to try something with the wireframe modifier, which was a big waste of time because you can't even see it.

I can't do chairs so every table or desk I do never has any kind of seating. Everyone has to stand in my world, it's good for your posture anyway.

My biggest issue is that on the coffin I used a boolean to add a cutaway(?) and it looks absolutely fine in Eevee, but all fucked up in Cycles to the point where you can't even tell what it is. Again I don't know how to fix this or what I've done wrong, I've tried everything.

I really didn't want to post it after someone posted something great, but I guess there's no time like the present.
So to reiterate, and ignoring all of those issues I've mentioned as well as obvious things with the settings because it's not a final render, how shit are we looking so far bros?

>Your last piece was a crate, right?

Yeah that was the one. It's not bait and it's not meant to be edgy or anything. I just seem to gravitate towards that kind of thing because it makes generic things less generic (although you could argue there's nothing more generic than hidden Nazi treasure, like the other one I posted).
I know it looks like some kind of shrine, but I suppose that's what it was supposed to be when I decided on doing it as more than just a coffin. Just to explain why it came about that way

>Want to do something Halloween related
>Do a coffin, maybe turn it into a graveyard or something
>Don't want it to be too generic
>Turn it into a Hitler coffin because there never was a Hitler coffin
>But at the same time Hitler's coffin wouldn't just be out in a graveyard
>What if Hitler had escaped to the Antarctic and died years later? What would they do when they can't bury the coffin?
>Probably have to keep it around somewhere
>Likely in a cavern because they're underground and staying out of sight
>Probably have a couple of other things there related to him, sort of like a "celebration"
>Can't do a cavern because I don't have the ability
>Have to turn it into a generic room instead
>Ironically after the whole thing was done to avoid genericism

That's why the concept doesn't really make sense, but would make more sense if it had been more like a cave (not an abundance of space, have to make do with what is available, that kind of thing).

I did try something completely different. It was a comfy little diner in the desert. I never finished it because it was making my PC run like shit, I couldn't dress the character, and I was having big issues with some of the mesh on the car. So I fucked it off. Pic related obviously.

Listen, you need to be more self confident and stop beating yourself up for everything. I unironically look forward to your posts in these threads. You're one of my favs (no homo). You improve with every new project. I'm excited to see what happens next in your Neuschwabenland/aryan adam & eve/secret treasure thing you got going on here. Were you thinking of making a movie or something out of this in the future, or is this strictly just practice?

1 critique:
The granite base of (Hitlers?) coffin there seems to be reflecting trees from the hdri so maybe put a ceiling and some more walls in your scene. I'm new though so I might be embarrassingly wrong on that.

Thanks fren I really appreciate that, it makes me feel less shit. I'd love to do some kind of animation or film or something in the future, but I think that's a long way off. As it stands right now it's just for practice.

>granite
It's supposed to be marble kek, I wanted it to be a bit more grandiose than usual. The front has that tilt to it because I was going to use a boolean to put a carving into it, but my computer runs like a cripple if I try to do too much. Even rendering that one image called for me to have to restart my computer afterwards. It's a nightmare.
I didn't even notice the tree reflections until you pointed them out so thanks for that. I remember reading a little while ago that it was possible to use the light from the HDRI, but without the reflections (sort of like when you turn it transparent in the viewport). I've looked for how to do it since and couldn't find it so I might have misremembered or misread it.

Like I say though, thanks a lot.

It looks like you know what you are doing on a technical side. But I can't help to hate the base model you are rigging. It just looks so uncanny/unappealing.
Are you setting up all the rig from scratch? It looks like the body rig has some nice corrections going on, and the face blendshapes seem to work, so it you are doing it all from scratch i would suggest tweaking the face before you get too far.

It is definitely off putting, but rather because of a uncanny valley feel. It kind of reminds me of Shrek, but without the appeal that made Shrek likable (probably eyes are too small for it to look cartoony, so it feels to realistic and falls into a weird in-between)

Sometimes I like to do a diffuse pass first like back in the good ol' days by just treating a texture like a regular painting/photoedit not worrying
about matching anything to pre-existing surface geometry, It's a more fun and liberating workflow for certain things.

It's then a lot easier to match a normal map to the existing image by painting it in 'pixel perfect' rather than attempt to go and sculpt in those details.

the textures for the window slats(?) need a bit of work though. they look cartoony and stretched.

you're probably still overdoing it on the tile/brick variation (slope angle) but it's less of a problem with the new shading. imagine if you hired someone to do that work and they starting doing that shit - you'd fire them and have it redone.

Yes i'm going to rework them
By the slope angle you don't mean the tesselation ? I find the bricks looks fine on the top left image, maybe a bit less displacement. For the picture on the right, especially the bricks on the left, the displacement doesn't have enough details because it's on low. Or maybe you mean the tiles have different angle ?

>What's the painting program you're using on the left?

Just standard photoshop.

>how do you personally go about mirroring your hand paints in the painting program?

You mirror it over by copying and just flipping/mirroring, for example horizontally:
You now have a copy where your normals points in the wrong direction horizontally so you need to open up the channel
holding your X-component vector and flip it. To do this you just open up the red channel and invert it so black is now white and white is black.
Now it's mirrored correctly.

mirroring vertical? Same but you then need to flip the Y-component so you invert the green channel.


>>855841
>Whats your process? It seems you start shading it with gray?

I drop down a falloff type shading in black in the area that is to curve away from the true normal.
To get a smooth falloff I use various techniques but the main one is marking off an area and shade it with the edge of a soft big brush.
Essentially the digital equivalent of airbrush masking, pic related gives you the idea how that works.

Then I lock transparency and sample the correct tangent colors by grabbing it off the a normal map sphere with a color picker.
Just paint them in and perhaps blend them a bit with some gaussian blur.

so versus painting, I've painted since I was young and I like it still- but I see more power in photographs and images when I'm applying texture to my cg- Often I'll end up using very small portions of an image- 16 pixels of a color gradient that happened to be in the shot behind the subject or something- there is a free form interpretive headspace that comes from squeezing what I need out of the image. Whereas painting textures is really meditated- you need to go in with the plan- Keeping the UV blueprint in mind during the creative process takes a lot of the fun out for me
>>855819
Yes- I work happily toward my cg goals, But it feels like not a lot to show- Because I've been learning a lot at the same time. Its been a lot of pre production, planning, designing, and model monkey mode to get things in place for what I have embarked on. I always need to 1-up myself which can be good but also makes 1 feel bad sometimes (i can't keep up! i can't keep up! out of step with the world)
>>855892
my smears are almost always a single keyframed local scale on a locked axis, for the bone of the limb I need to stretch from A to B. I don't like much overhead while I animate, so this is luckily very simple. I don't use volume preservation and only use stretchto constraints on the arm and feet IK usually. A lot of the trick to a 3d smear is a real sharp eye for where in the 3d space to put that single warped pose. A few years ago I really tried to understand x-sheets the language of timing in motion- I don't think I have a baptised eyeof god grasp on it all like the animation old guys do, but the studies helped me to time things without thinking too hard and that's pretty major lifehack because animating in 3dimension is a lot to chew on as it is

Hey anyone remember a short from the early 2000's, I think it was called The Relic or The Artifact?

It had a really unique intro with like powerlines weaving together for the opening credits. Then it cut to the characters who were all pretty unique. It was post apocalyptic. One the characters was in like a block building and crunched down a pill.

The short culminated in a train robbery against robots.

I think it won a some awards, but I can't find it anywhere. I wanted to sculpt one of the characters from it but I need ref.

looks chinese cause eyes are too far in the front and cheekbones not far out enough. Has some more anatomy issues going on. Best bet for you is to load up a skull model next to it and compare. Skin stretches over the skull and muscles, your model is missing that concept, looks like a hull. Goes for stylized too.

If that happens regularly in your day to day workflow I'd suggest you switch to Max (or Maya even).
I know learning a new software to do the same shit is a pain, and Autoshit brings their own problems, but from my own experience its always more efficient to have the ability to balance strengths and weaknesses of several programs.
I am using Blender as my main modelling software, but whenever Blender starts to fail me I use Maya for modelling and compiling/grouping bigger objects together.
Software wars and all that bullshit asides, you don't really have lots of options here.
Stay as you are and eat the pain, or grow and become more flexible to be able to choose your pain.
I have tested the performance of Blender, Maya and Max on my machine - my impression is that Maya is like 3 times more efficient as Blender and Max is 5+ times more efficient (pure mesh performance, everything else varies even more).

Anonymous at Fri, 15 Oct 2021 13:36:33 UTC No. 856740

>>856735
It doesn't happen regularly, it's just the one add on I'm using (and I think because the model is so big). Plus I get a bit retarded with adding things that won't even be noticeable in the final render.
I've been trying to use the correct measurements lately instead of just doing it by eye and the current one is massive (something like 200ft by 80ft) so when I use the add on it really slows things down and sometimes crashes Blender. What I've been doing to try and combat it is to select everything and shrink it down. This works a lot better, but I have the feeling it's bad practice and shouldn't really be done.

I'd be more than happy to try something like Maya or Max, the more tools at your disposal the better, but the prices are the main sticking point. I know I could probably find pirated copies, but I'm going to concentrate on upgrading my computer first. My GPU is definitely not great (but again prices) and there's a couple of other things I could do with upgrading.
I think if I was making money from modeling, or if I was ever good enough to do that, then I probably would be much more inclined to take a look at something like Maya or Max.
Thanks though, maybe I will have to check them out regardless.

>but the prices are the main sticking point.
seriously, disregard the prices issue and pirate that shit, now!
If you are an hobbyist, it doesn't matter, they never really expect you to become a customer.
If you are not and have aspirations to go pro, then you shouldn't care either, because you should focus on efficient workflows and ability to get a job/income first.
Learning another program will have a positive effect on your brain, it'll be rewired and work better than before - you'll might see trickle down effects and cross effects that will change your mind in an positive way and subsequently your workflow.
If you ever turn pro successfully, you'll probably be easily able to afford an indie license.
But even as a pro you could pretend to only use Blender, and continuously proceed to rip Autoshit off. (you have my blessing and that of most struggling 3D artists)
There is no real downside to being a pirate of these tools, except the time you invest in them, but you'll get that time back, sooner or later.
Especially with an older PC I would recommend it even more as you can get more performance out of it at no additional cost.
For me personally, having the option of balancing the weaknesses and strengths of both Blender and Maya has brought a ton of fun back to 3D and I certainly don't want to miss it. My productivity has skyrocketed since doing it. Its like 1+1=3.
Whatever you do, Godspeed Anon.

>Learning another program will have a positive effect on your brain, it'll be rewired and work better than before - you'll might see trickle down effects and cross effects that will change your mind in an positive way and subsequently your workflow
That's the way I see it too. I remember when I was first learning a foreign language and when I read things in that language it was like you were seeing things from a totally different point of view. Like something was lost in translation when you were reading it in English.
I think I will pirate both Maya and Max at some point. All I really need to upgrade is my GPU and drive. The drive I bought as "temporary measure" until I could be bothered to buy something better. But I never got around to it so I've been stuck with a 1TB HDD for the last 3 or 4 years. Once I at least get the new drive then I'll likely get Maya and Max. I've taken everything you've said onboard.

I know it's not to everyone's taste (although one anon does seem to like them, and I hope he's not a glowie trying to trick me). It's the snow that really slows things down, but that's only because I'm using quite a bit of it atm and I'm still getting used to it.
I think with a few mountains or something in the background, a couple of people in front of it for scale, a few more of those like carvings in the stone (which admittedly I've been struggling with), and maybe a few other little bits and bobs it might come out alright. I'm not sure if the temple part at the top being a different kind of stone seems jarring or not, it seems off I think.
Still a /wip/ obviously atm but I'm happy enough with how it's coming along.

Proceduralism in Substance Painter and the ability to retain all the brush strokes, layers and bakes while changing UVs and tweaking the model topology is absolutely godlike.

I fucked up and miscalculated so many times with my current model that I'd probably waste weeks if I wasn't able to tweak things this easily.

Not that anon,
but what I do is duplicate the mesh, select faces by normal (top facing, and ones where snow would be), delete everything else, throw a solidify modifier on top to give it some thickness, then displace it.

It's quick and dirty, and there's better ways to do it, but it works in most cases. You wouldn't get the snow that hangs off edges like in the pic though.

since the 'lens cursor' and the regular mouse on the previous picture has this weird thumb thing for scrolling, and '2d mouse' apparently has a proper mouse wheel, I bet the 4d just has 2 wheels.

this is really clean anon, what res textures are you using?

>>856304
i know you post a lot here, but forreal why do you always choose those tones for the skin?

The wrinkles on the left-sleeve look strange you might want to redo them. You've also got some severe clipping (tho you probably know that)

>>856019
this is crisp af, i love it. very hl2/fallout nv vibes. i know you're going for a certain chique with this, but have you adding some bits of distinct debris to the rubble piles/ maybe doing some bump/disp/normal mapping on them? maybe it would ruin the look tho i dunno.

The wings seem kinda small, but I like the shapes.

Texture WIP, but I'm still working out the kinks.

p*rno rigs are good for practicing. Do I like rigging? Yes... Would I rather be animating? Usually, yes......

Its done. Now I might as well model up an interior for her mouth, and be done with that.

nah all in blender. my workflow is: for the cloths and armour make a low poly mesh subdivide a shit load, sculp wrinkles, duplicate and un-subdivide, bake normal map. And for the helm I sculpt the the general shape to use as a sort of guide and then I retopo/poly model as I go. works well for me.

Took a few months off any art stuff and the anthro thread died. This thread's on autosage though so whatever. Any suggestions for this anthro cat head? Included the ref I'm mostly working off of.

I feel like the base of the nasal bridge + top of muzzle and nose need to be a little narrower. Looks good.

I had a popcorn shard that was stabbin my teeth it left a scar that really hurt so i couldn't sleep, so i made use of the time where i couldn't rest to make this model. I might make it animateable later this month, but I gues I'm having fun with this. (I went to the detist and am ok now.)

Good point, thanks. Need to work on the nose a bit with some dyntopo anyways, detail got lost in remeshing.

>>857286
Have you posted stuff to twitter? Think I've seen this with a different model but can't tell.

Maybe change the color of the outside light source? Make it more dramatically different so it looks less like they're just reflecting light back into the room.

Very nice anon, this pleases me. Look into using the array modifier to simulate an expansive ice field in the background, that would make it much more finished looking. Keep your chin up you're doing good.

It's because your dynamic range is kind of fucked.
Think about it like a photographer. You'd only be able to get a correct exposure on either the inside or outside, not both (not counting bracketed exposures). You can even try it right now with your cell phone. Try to take a photo looking at a daytime window, and you'll find that if you focus on the inside, the window is pretty much bright white.
Either bring up the exposure in the room and blow out the outside a bit, or bring down the room and have the outdoor area exposed properly. Obviously since you're trying to show off the interior, the former is the better option.

I'd also piggyback with what the other anon said and bring the actual effect of the environment's lighting up. Don't just blow out the outdoor exposure with level's adjustment, actually make the light contribute to the scene more dramatically.
It'll make it seem more grounded in that place, instead of a house in a void with a picture of mountains in the background.

Working on a body for her now. The reference anatomy is super weird, I'm blocking in muscle groups and then I'm going to see if I can match the smooth-but-full look the original art has. First time I've tried finishing a body sculpt to this level.
