[Anonymous No.726993]

It's a /3/ tradition that's now dying because people are using an unrelated thread to post their wip projects.
It was some anon's project way back when, and it just stuck as the go-to for work in progress threads.
So not really a meme in the "lol so randum" sense, but in the traditional definition of the word it definitely is.

Damn anon, that looks good, like game/video ready good. Are you working on a game?; iirc I have seen you post this wip in '18 or mid '19 when i was lurking. Nice to see you progress this good. I am really digging the concept of halo-horn and body-mod. If I had to critique, i'd say her areolas/nips or skin crease/folds look a bit thick. Looks balanced though.
Now I am also working on a character model, i'd really like to know some tips from you. I am complete noob.

[Anonymous No.727687]

>>727682

Thank you so much anon, yea this model took quite a lot of time. I had to take a break because I just didn’t have the time because uni. A good tip I could give you is to first skulpt your model and then do retopo on it. The thick creases etc are typical for my style, The collar bones especially. I plan to use her for a game but I think she is just to heavy for a game. However I will still try it. I am sure I can also animate her since she’s fully rigged

If you wanna capture feet correctly your goal should not be to keep it too simple.

Feet have a very complex shape with curves that changes the silhouette of the foot for the full rotation.
Their geometry is arguably the most difficult to capture on the entire body seeing how they're entirely made up of asymmetric compound curves.

You can't capture them by simply get them right from the top bottom, left, right.
You kinda need to go around them very carefully in at least 45 degree increments to get in the ballpark of the correct shape.

They also look way different depending on the lifestyle and fitness of the specimen.
Your current foot looks like it belongs to a person who doesn't use shoes, have gotten flat and splayed toes,
and for some reason spends a lot of time supporting their bodyweight on their toenails, why they've gone flat.
Missing anatomy and swolleness makes it sorta look like the shape of the foot of someone in the process of recovering from a sprain injury.

But don't be discouraged anon, everyone start out making feet like that.

This paintover suggests some things to look for, can't be assed to fix the alignment and overlap of all them toes but you prob get the idea.

>>728105
I have nothing to add to anon's list except that your feet look gender neutral. Are you aware of the differences between male and female feet?

And the nails are weird - yours are exerting too much pressure down. There should be a slight depression from the base where the nail comes but an otherwise seamless transition, and at the sides where the nail meets side toe there should be a pinching and flesh moves out of the way a bit. At the tip of the toenail, generally there's no depression, unless you're modelling a fat fuck.

I’m actually modelling with Rhino 3D
I split the surfaces with curves and then cut and pasted the lines into a new layer. They’re rendered in key shot with a matte paint. Towards the end of the process I’ll actually cut out the flaps entirely so they have visible gaps between panels.

[Anonymous No.729416]

>>729397
>>729398
I don't know what they/you were thinking with your unwrap to be honest, but here's how I would have done it. N-gons or not.
The main structure can be unwrapped straight up without any seams. Just look at it from the front, and project from view. You won't have any seams, or stretching that way. I don't know if there's a back side or not, but in the same case, it's fine to have them overlap if they're going to be the same texture/material or if you won't see it.
The posts or whatever can just be unwrapped like a basic cylinder. Seam around the top face, then one down the side. I'd just unwrap the tops of them separately and have them as they come out (pic related), so they get textures on the inside side faces without any extra work. Blender is a little weird unwrapping cylinders though, so make sure to be in front or side view (in orthographic) before you unwrap it.
Overall it's a super simple shape to unwrap. Even to make. I don't know what's up with that geometry to begin with. Shouldn't need N-gons at all, and even if it did, it wouldn't make much difference when unwrapping. UVs don't care about that. And if it's not gonna deform like a limb, or be subsurfed, n-gons don't really matter. Especially on flat objects.

As far as learning UVs goes, I go through how I conceptualize it here >>728288
Basically, imagine you can cut up the object with magic scissors to make it lay flat on a table. The seams are where you would cut it. If a part can lay flat on its own, don't cut it up. There's a bit more advanced concepts that go along with it, but it's enough to get started on. You'll pick up when and where to cut things with practice and it'll come naturally.
Hope it helps.

[Anonymous No.729417]

>>729416
>>729397
I should also mention, that the seam around the edge of the big thing doesn't really need to be there. It's just there in the case that you'd want to have a separate UV island for the back. Really though a front project would take care of the whole thing (minus the screw things) no problem.

this was one of my first attempts at an anatomy study when I started off on blender.

I'm trying to make something female with less muscle definition this time. still haven't figured out how to properly delineate the ribcage from the abdominal muscles.

>I'd like specific input on how i can improve it.
There's no improving it. Stop working on it and move onto the next sculpt. Polishing a turd won't help you improve. Doing many sculpts will.

>Still haven't got a digital pad either.
Get a fucking pad. They're $60 for the smaller sizes and you dont need a huge one. You're not doing yourself any favors sculpting with a mouse, and you're not going to impress anyone either. Get a pad, and start learning. If you want to take sculpting seriously and improve, start building that muscle memory and coordination now instead of putting it off.

>probably took my 2 weeks just to get the fucking proportions right on this model
Stop wasting time on single models. Do a single sculpt a day. Focus on getting proportions right first. Then when you can knock out proportions in minutes, do the next step of detail. When you get that into muscle memory work on more detail. If it takes you 2 weeks to make a half assed torso, you're doing it wrong. Even if you're doing it in 1hr intervals. Instead of using that time to work on a single shitty sculpt, use that hour each day to do a different shitty sculpt each day. Eventually they'll get less shit. Less shit, way faster than if you had spent 2 weeks on a single shit model. Who knows, after a few months you might git gud. Definitely more likely than spending a few months on 1 or 2 sculpts.

K, you go some fair point. I know I can bust out a better looking torso a lot quicker though because of how long I was messing around with this thing.

>>729755
I smoothed them out to rework them. It doesn't matter where or how I place them if the underlying torso isn't shaped correctly. most of them won't even be expressed with the fat% this sculpt is supposed to have anyway.

I've seen plenty of sculpts out there with those land marks on a shitty foundation. it just looks like crap.

Niyazi Selimoglu is the best example of the kind of work I want to produce in the future.

I'm trying to do too much at once I guess. I'll be back in a month, lets see what i can produce on a digital pad by then.

Everything you're doing looks like shit. My first sculpt ever would probably look like pro shit to you. In 2 weeks I was sculpting stuff that would blow your mind. It's all because I had the anatomical foundation beforehand because I know how to draw people.

I have zero artistic background, I've been doing this on and off for the past 6 months. I'm not as consistent as I should be.

Hes right though, its the same advice i give to people who ask me how i do my anatomy. Use real life refs, dont study other artists, study studies. Best thing from other artist you can get is anatomy breakdowns, shit like this, stuff like anatomy and forms breakdowns should be open on your second screen when you sculpt and if you dont have one alt tab and burn it into your mind
https://www.artstation.com/artwork/A9bnA5

Niyazi is extremely good, but even he makes mistakes and sloppy unpolished forms.
His style is realism, he makes fantastic humanoids with very realistic proportions, its hard to match unless you are decent ad anatomy, unless you mean his 3 light setup sss renders?

Also get a proper tablet, and stop doing full body sculpts, that art station has few body parts broken down, find other similar shit and make a nose, an ear, an eye, hand, feet etc. For full body sculpt try making sloppy pose and form studies, limit it to 50k polies so you dont get tempted to do detail.

[Anonymous No.730124]

>>730118
I made a little basic tutorial for you. I'm not a professional yet and i'm still following tutorials/learning the workflow for hair since this is my second realistic character. But I can feel myself getting better/quicker with each day.

1. generate hair strands in maya (xgen). You can find information on how to do that in Johan Lithvall's CGMA hair creation course. Or elsewhere on youtube. The process works for both hair and beards. Gen guides in xgen and tweak>export geom to zbrush to taper and cap holes>create hair ID groups in choice of software>export for bake

2. Bake in xgen. Baked out alpha map, a couple of height maps to best match the different densities of hairs, a colour ID map and a couple of alpha ramp maps. Combine alpha and ramp maps in Photoshop so the roots and tips are more transparent. Combine height maps for best results. Combine colour ID and Height map then colour for temporary albedo/diffuse. Tweak levels ecs to get best result.

3. Generate hair cards in zbrush (for beard only) using resources and method from this tutorial:
youtu.be/8c7QYYr9KFc
Don't forget to set the polycount per strip you want.
(I know my hair meshes are dense, i'll sort this out later. I'm just looking for a rough base to work from)
Pro tip: Make sure you are working from your full head model. Trying to work with just the area you want to generate your cards on will result in tiny hair cards.

4. Groom hair card guides using brushes from previous tut.

5. Confirm geo>unwrap in ZBrush using fiber mesh unwrap>Export to Max/Maya and pick a hair card texture you'd like to use. You can quickly add some simple variation using a random element selection script. Then tweak by hand. A LOT. Tweaking and polishing will take up A LOT of time.

6. Export to Substance to work on textures then to engine to see what it will look like and go back and forth with all the other steps to get the result you want.

PRO TIP. Make your character bald. Hair sucks.

I still need to add some more definition if possible but also clean it up a bit so im expecting anywhere from 2500-3500 total when finished. would this be too much for mobile platforms? most advice i see on the internet talks about keeping models 1000-2000, but that all from forum posts like 4+ years old. a lot of mobile games i see now use assets that probably have even more detail modeled in, comparatively WoT blitz look like they use some pretty high def stuff almost on par with the PC version + large maps with tons of scenery and buildings + 12 tanks in play

Delaying on the eyebrows but i'm trying to make the hair not look like hot garbage. I made the hair chunk textures too dense and its super obvious. So I'm improvising and using the hair ID texture to just mask out some of the alpha map so give the hair strands some room to breathe. Getting some better results but I need to paint in a hair texture on the head of the character so you don't see right down to the bald scalp. :/

Which gender is that supposed to be? You have mixed markers. In any case, the nose is not wide enough, eyelids need some thickness and there is a weird fold between eyebrow and eyelid at the outside of your eyes. Also, the top eyelid goes over the bottom eyelid, they don't meet and vanish like in your sculpt. Ears could be a bit higher, but that varies a lot from person to person so it doesn't matter.

Anyone have any advice on titty physics in Blender 2.8? This is a cloth sim, which, with better settings, would probably work well -- but I can't seem to get good settings, and taking around 5+ minutes to test each setup is a bit draining.

[Anonymous No.733122]

Usually making ugly people is easier because the hardest part of anatomy isn't making a nose, for example, but rather making a well balanced nose with proper scale all over. In the case of your character, your skull shape, cheekbones, nose and laugh lines look okay, but the eyes, mouth and ears aren't 'ugly people' eyes, mouth and ears, but just barely register as said organs.

That being said, if this is your first sculpt, it looks pretty good. Just keep it up anon

That's right, and she is indeed a female(female).

After getting the body worked on a bit more, I feel like her face is a bit too... forward.

Thanks for the tips so far, anons.

you a need to focus on main shapes, your tits are still tooo high and your entire pelvis region lacks definition
neck is too thin towards top, laughing lines are too defines, cheeks are too big compared to the eyebrows and hands look akward as hell
what ress you sculping at? it looks too dense

I don't sculpt at the resolution it's rendered. The whole body is at about 100k when I sculpt.

Still, thanks a lot for the in-depth comment anon.

Textured the original model a bit for reference too.

[Anonymous No.733688]

Alright some actual progress and a bit more re-worked than the initial concept. Now it's using a proper real-world scale (where I can).
Added the first lighting pass, and I'm still messing around with it, but I like the concept of having the traffic lights being large LED panels that bathe the scene in light.

Most of the scene is still pretty basic and I haven't textured anything. Mainly been working on the elevated train for the most part. I think it's at a good place for right now, but gonna do some more detail passes after everything else is caught up; so up next will be modelling the videophone booths.

Just in case you're thinking about keeping that texture for the asphalt: asphalt roads are generally made to be higher in the middle so water trickles down to the sides. Water shouldn't puddle around like that.

[Anonymous No.733703]

>>733697
Oh I know that roads are slightly humped so that the water doesn't sit. The texture is really just there to get a sense of the mood for right now (it's literally just an append of the road material from the Runoff project). I'm not using it for the final. Though in the final it will be raining.
But yeah, just hadn't gotten to detailing the roads and stuff just yet. Road detail and sidewalks will be after I do the Vidphones. So sewers, gutter drains, puddles, potholes, chips and stuff in the curbs, the works.

This is bullshit. You can change the vertex weights in the vertex menu. Whenever you add an armature each bone gets a vertex group where you can set it.

[Anonymous No.734193]

>>733984
Did you touch other parts?
Other than general idea of main muscles there seems to be no care for volumes or propotions which make anatomy, not defining individual muscles nobody even knows where are exactly.

I mean physical weight you dork

[Anonymous No.734225]

>>734203
>I mean physical weight you dork
Right, because in 3d, physical weight is the go-to definition when talking about weight and vertexes.
If you're using a cloth sim, the reason you can't is because it's for cloth, not boobies or volumes. Fabrics don't suddenly change weight halfway through. Can't even do that shit with MD.
You can try using softbodies.
>but it just collapses in on itself
Use an icosphere as the driving object, and extrude all the faces inside the object to give it structure.
Check out this video for a good starting point. The physics aren't quite there yet, but it should be a better way to get softbodies working which is closer to what you should be using over cloth. In either case, they're just bruteforcing something that's not really supported for some reason (why Blender doesn't have jiggle/wiggle bones is beyond me).

For what it's worth, it might not lead you anywhere useful. This is something that's been notoriously "hard" to do properly in Blender since forever, and why there isn't a solution for it is baffling.
Jiggle physics are used for more than just boobies. Like it'd be awesome to have some kind of jiggle bone or something to control something like the suspension of a car; instead of the ass-backwards way of parenting each wheel to a separate bone that's driven by hooked verts running a cloth sim. It's so fucking retarded it's no wonder why Blender is the butt end of so many jokes in the 3d world. It's always 3 steps behind in terms of tech.

[Anonymous No.734235]

>>734232
i think the biggest mistake people make about blender is that it's not a commercial product and so most of the actual development is driven by the community
for example, take a look at pablo dobarro and the insane stuff he's putting out
all it takes is a person like that to really focus in on a feature
it'd look a lot less hacky if you could just run a cloth/soft body/rigid body sim on an armature directly

Poses are stiff, and the stormtrooper's armor is way too clean. The scene would also benefit from way more contrast the dust looks more like a mist than actual dust particles that cast harsher shadows and such.

Struggling to find a nice lighting setup in engine. The actual character isn't 100% ready for it yet. Textures still have more tweaking. I'd just like to see it under better lighting conditions. Any suggestions on nice lighting setups?

[Anonymous No.734438]

I do actually have a few lights in the scene at the minute. I think i'm going to go back and start the lighting from scratch. Really think about where I want the character to be in the world.

[Anonymous No.734451]

>>734441
yeah, you should decide whether you want grounded lighting that invokes a setting or more abstract lighting that serves to show the asset off
i reccomend starting off with very high and hard contrast lighting to get the striking elements of the lighting down
might be obvious but marmoset's posts on lighting are actually very helpful and make good starting points
