Is it a bad thing that I don’t focus too much on making realistic/highly detailed stuff? It’s getting annoying figuring out texture stuff or needing to find a new software to bake better or do some other little thing I’m going to hate the process of. I’m still improving, but here’s a cel shaded thing I’ve done to show where I’m at with this so far

Long hair always looks like a floating block (pic related). Faces look awesome today, but hair is still a huge problem to get right. Why?
🧵 Fear of AI making any learning pointless
Anonymous at Sat, 23 Sep 2023 03:40:09 UTC No. 959267
To preface, I want to clarify that I don't oppose AI development, and I recognize the inevitability of technological progress. However, I'm grappling with the uncertainty surrounding how long it will take for AI to perform 3DCG tasks I've dedicated time and effort to learning, but at a fraction of the cost it would take to employ me. If I decide to go to animation school, I'd like to ensure that my skills remain relevant for a reasonable span, ideally a couple of decades. Unfortunately, I'm unsure if I'll have that much time left in this career after completing my education. How do you all reconcile this concern?
🧵 Tutorial for character renders with good lighting?
Anonymous at Sat, 23 Sep 2023 02:47:16 UTC No. 959261
I want to do poses of characters with a background with good lighting. I figured out how to pose characters, but I don't know how lighting works, or compositing. Anyone know a good tutorial for someone who plans on doing character renders? A course would be even better, cause I don't want to watch a 3 minute video that only tells me 2% of what I need to know. I want something comprehensive that goes over everything about compositing lighting and character renders to make the best render possible

Can somebody redpill me on sculpting/retop over box modeling with subdivisions? To me, sculpting and then retoping is just a whole extra step. You're basically creating the model twice and just tracing over it. If you were to just box model from the start then you wouldn't have this issue, right?

🧵 solids with wraping contour lines
Anonymous at Fri, 22 Sep 2023 00:52:00 UTC No. 959145
Hi I'm a total newbie in this right now I'm working on a personal project in which I need some basic assets but with set contraints:
- I have to use Blender
- all elements are either ellipsoids or organic shapes (image related)
- All elements, most of them, have wrapping contour lines.
- The end result needs to be smooth, the wrap lines need to look like they have been painted, not plastered over the main blob.
- The contour lines must be a different color to the main blob.
- GLB Binary
- The elements will be displayed on a web viewer in a 500px by 500px area, so the smaller the file size the better.
- It would be nice to have the option to make only the blob transparent.
I've found some howtos on most things except wrapping contours on solids, also read the sticky but I'm still lost. Anyway, what would be the most competent way to achieve this? At least adding the wrap lines on a sphere would be appreciated.

Continuing off from >>957433
I am making a music video in Blender with Hatsune Miku (character model also made by me, shown in previous thread),
singing about not making minecraft. The song is here

I am starting on the actual animation portion of the music video finally now.
this shot compared with the length of the entire song, i am 1% complete at this point.

Going to be using A*obe PS for masking and comp but ran across this on their new generative AI tool and got put off. Is it pozzed? I read the regular terms of service too and they are also anti everything, like
>6.9 Share any Content or engage in behavior that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, obscene, violent, abusive, tortious, defamatory, libelous, vulgar, lewd, invasive of another’s privacy, hateful, or otherwise objectionable;
what should I do? My renewal is almost here. Didnt use it much last year. But, this coming year I will need to comp and mask, but I don't want to become pozzed, too

This is Bengugu's style which I love and I'm looking to make it in Unreal Engine 5. Any and all details and tips on how to get it as close as possible to Bengugu's style are appreciated.

Any tips or tuts before I get started would be appreciated.
