I don't have enough for all the 3d software and hardware I want to sub to. I just don't earn enough. Fucking sucks man. I'll never be like one of you guys with xx80 or xx90 series gpus with 4k monitors and every software. I'm poor as fuck.

🧵 How do you make good mats in Blender?

Anonymous No. 966532

I feel like everything provided by Blender is PURELY for realism,
I can't figure out for the life of me how to make picrel look any better, I've already improved and optimized the mesh as much as I could

How exactly are you supposed to improve materials? I've tried looking for preset and shit on marketplaces but I really don't fucking know
Could also be bc I need to use another render engine but I'm even more clueless about that

>Phong/PN Triangle Tessellation.
http://www.klayge.org/material/4_0/PhongTess/PhongTessellation.pdf

is there any implementation/plugin for this on any modern dcc software? btw, this is NOT the same as subdivision surface. with subd, you'll lose volume as it would 'carve' the surface inwards. with this method however, the tessellated surface it generates will still pinned to the source vertices while adding more poly that follows the normals.

the only implementation that ive found is in Unity but as a shader. it would be great if we can use this for authoring 3d model inside Blender/Maya/3dsmax.

https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/SL-SurfaceShaderTessellation.html#:~:text=uses%20phong%20tessellation%20

there's also a talk by Mihoyo at GDC about experiementing with this method to make their future anime cg model's silhouette looks perfectly smooth and not jagged (imagine the booba closeup). but ive lost the link to the talk.

Anyone got good reference files they can share for 3d printing? Mostly looking for male/female planar faces, but a full body models would be nice too.

The vast majority of you people don't even use the animation side of 3D Animation Software. You just make poor static models.

Think about that.

🧵 Some ideas why 3D models cant never look like 2D anime.

Anonymous No. 966400

I'm starting to think 8-12 FPS with no interpolation, keyframing every frame and then simply using grease pencil to 2D animate some stuff like hands, face, hair, skirt.

To be a much superior method to animate HD anime girls, over doing it completelly with 3D techniques like Arcsys.

Anime girl faces are just too vital and crucial to get the 2D perfectly done.
That is just a waste of time to attempt to make a convoluted facial rig, over a 2D grease pencil face.

Same for their haircut.
Hands are also another key component to sell the illustion of 2D.

Skirts, simply because of their nature, require deformations that are unnatural to do with 3D techniques.

The rest of the anime girl body, such as her limbs, and shirt and shoes, are usually things that are of lower priority, and can easily be made as 3D toon shading smoth meshes.

But the previously mentioned areas, are usually stuff that the brain very easily picks as clue is a 3D model.

This is obviously a retarded statement, but if so many professional artists repeat it everywhere, there must be *something* they're getting from traditional media.
