WIP Small Works Art Thread

Not here to compete... here to inspire... and this is coming along... keep on practising...

 

Great work Neptune !
But why so dark ? Be proud of your work !

Here's my current game-res mesh. More of an artwork but anyway...

HigherRes


DING DONG !
"I would like to talk to you about God"

 

Super work Florian, imagine how could it would be if you would create more races like that and make whole space scene similar to Mass Effect.

 

Creeeeepy!! Definitely beyond the G-Man creepyy

 

Ivanzu, that is one fantastic book, thanks for sharing.

 

Here's my wip model. It's missing a few buttons and maybe a specular map for the skin part. And the shader is just the bumped specular that comes with unity, I might change that later.





Does he look from the 70s? He's supposed to! it's for my stealth espionage project

edit: Did I mention the project could use an extra hand? yes! "we" are "hiring" (as in "I need help from other hobbyists") The thread is here.

 

Epic

 

Looks like a creepy pedophile, I like the model, looks oldish styled.

 

He definitely has that feel of a creepy man like a kidnapper... Love this

 

I just made a note to self here: "don't make him one of the good guys" lol
Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad you like it.

 

@mcunha98

love the style, amazing work!!!!

 

Damn great, the last tower looks excellent, thats gonna be one great looking IOS game.

 

@mcuncha9e Those are some great looking assets. I love the texturing style.

Do you know of any good tutorials I could check out to learn to texture better?

 

That shark on the hook would be 100x better if you tapered the nose and it wasnt so much of a cube. Just bring the corner verts in and backward a bit so it rounds off to more of a point and itll be awesome. Textures need a little more love in the hand painted department but its really coming along and looking nice!

 

Lovely art style!
What platform is this project aimed for? mobile? I ask because it seems very low poly and the shader looks very simple (still loooks great! not a criticism at all if this is intended)

 

Guys,

Thanks for the comments, here some objects in the game:

 

More wonderful work! Is that lightmapped?

 

This is looking very impressive... Are you going to work on the lighting as well

 

Here is some more work on the my model... (been working on my novel so been taking breaks from 3D) these are rendered in xNormal, so a lot of of the specular maps that I have working in Unity, are virtually null in this program... will further optimise this model...

 

Nice model, but I just realized he is wearing a shirt. Take a look at some references of muscled men wearing tight shirts:


See how the fabric stretches mostly horizontally? this makes all features of the underlying object that aren't cylindrically symmetric disappear (that's hard to put in words, but just looking at the picture should make it clear

Always have references! keep modeling

 

Yeah, that was just a quick photoshop mockup using a blender render.

 

Already fixing it... looking at some Under Armour shirts for reference...

 

I randomly made this earlier in the week to practice on improving my low poly modeling skills and mostly texturing.
I call it the Strange Rhino

He roams freely in dessert areas dressed in battle armor.

 

Is meant to be cartoony so needs some more work.

 

Not bad man... keep on improving...

 

Some fun with the post effects... I am still working on my model's textures and wanted a better scene to test my model in... and this particular level is one of few lighting scenarios the characters will be in... textures still WIP

EDIT: I can't seem to get rid of the artifacts that I am getting with Megagrab...

 

Badass!

 

Dinos put together for first pack release on Asset store.

 

Been working away on a new Typhon class Archer for Steel Archers. (With the normal sized mechs for comparison) I'm leaning towards giving the player more massive mechs to use in assaults on enemy facilities (with the player being constantly harried by smaller units).

 

Damn, look at those T-Rex models... I would be S***ting myself right now if i were the other dinos lol...such great work Janpec... question, what are you using to preview your models...

 

The model is vastly improved with the small tweaks you made and the lighting, scenario and post effects are FANTASTIC.

 

Thanks man... I am hoping with an editor for cutscenes, I will be able to animate all of these effects cleanly... still working on the model lol...

 

Thanks Neptune, i am usually using Unity, Mudbox or Marmoset toolbag to preview models, since those are all realtime engines and there arent much difference in visual results. On that image Marmoset toolbag was used (great for previewing models in several provided lighting setups, and it even includes DX11 detail tessellation, sadly i cant test it on dinos becouse my card is on DX11 minus 1 )

And also shaders that you use on your character are so damn unique and especially metal and glasses are looking really interesting.

 

This is quite painful lol... since I can't get glossy reflections, I will have to settle with low res reflections, which is all running in realtime... I have also implemented (inadvertently) fresnel gloss and specular, which is great for doing stuff like sweat on boxers... the textures you see are the clean one... later on I am going to design blood and damage on the fighter... kinda debating keeping the damage on the face...

 

Meet Captain Delta everyone.



My Texturing skills have improved. this is one my favorite low poly models I have created.

Its the finished version of this:

 

Just wanted to share a few pieces of character art!

I don't have too many plans for these. But I did want them to see at least a little bit of exposure.

 

You are really improving : )

 

Wow! This right here is awesome!

 

Thank you Virror

 

Okay, I made this GUI awhile ago for someones game, they never went with it, well it could easily be used for someones slenderman game, I just hope i can find the PSD.

 

UI needs a bit of work, very obvious that its just photoshop filters at the moment. Bevel and emboss, lighting, and gradient overlay. I dont see how anyone can use it since its copyright of the Slender Life. Unless whoever these people are give the ok, technically the work is theirs even if unused

 

I would keep working on the UI... it takes WAY more than photoshop to make a great UI... keep going with the work...

 

Hey guys... finally finished up the texture work on this guy... I am cool with the colours and appearance of the model... Just gotta to shrink down the texture and sharpen it a bit (A trick I learned on polycount), and do a detail pass... any thoughts?

 

No copyright, I just put that in if they were going to make the game, they never did, I made this 2 years almost ago, did little work as you can see, I have no need to work on it further, just thought someone could use it if I found the psd files. otherwise its scrap.

 

I did the lightmap in Unity with Unity's Bake.
The models I'm using AO maps.

 

The next project I'll probably never finish (but I'm actually trying to do): A spacefighter space fighting game in space. To name just a few of the main features: Spaceships, Lasers and a breakthrough technology utilized real-time Darth Vader Bobblehead inside the Cockpit.

 

Messing around with my new portable sound recorder and audacity led to this abomination (40MB Windows build in Unity4 Beta). Started as such an innocent sound! Interesting project, but not sure what I'll do with it.

 

Some pretty good scenes, models and games in this thread, thought I would show what I am creating and what I've done so far.

Basically I am creating an pit lane/ garage with possibly transferring it all over into Unity and you are able to navigate your way around the pit garage, also I may make one of the cars interactive (able to drive it out of the garage, change camera views). The image below is what I have done so far, there is a slight issue with the lighting (shadows in the garage) but I am mostly using the lighting to see how things look, there is one major thing missing from the car ... that is the steering wheel, I may add/ create that at a later date, I missed this out on purpose due to being a complex piece of geometry/ mesh/ object.

Nothing has material/ texture apart from the cars and the spare front wing, all the rest is Maya's default Lambert material.
