low poly thread

[D-Chap]

All this stuff looks incredible, really impressive man! The normal mapping on the gun is great.

Looks pretty cool man! Lets see some progress on this though! I want to see some textures! lol Nice use of those geospheres man :P
And you know... Phillip is being stubborn and doesn't want to use the geospheres. :/ don't tell him I said anything and then when you see his lowpoly on his gun tell him to use a geosphere for the butt of the gun. I already suggested it to him and he kinda dodged it.

thanx JJ, i was sitting behind him when he was modeling it. I think i said something, but i dont remember.....ill let him know...

Well, im doing my low poly's at once. So textures will need to wait till i am able to get a new machine. Marmoset wont run on the piece of crap machine im using right now.

[Oniram]

going back a bit. Could you post up a texture sheet for your diver helmet. im interested in seeing your maps.

[Raul]

well of course!

Also, here is a breakdown that i wanted to post a long time ago, but never got around

[chunkymunky]

You rock with those textures, just beautiful

[Raul]

@munky - dude, what happened to the old avatar. I liked that one better. Tho, thanx!

Anyway, here is the final lp barber chair. be texturing sometime this weekend.



lp breakdown.

i'm guessing you're the go to guy when i have questions about low poly modeling and marmoset render engine

nice chair, has a very nice feel of materials

[chunkymunky]

That barbar's chair is incredible! The avatar changed because Psycho Mantis ruined it and used it for his own avatar lol, and I fancied a change but liked it too so have revamped it

[Raul]

@rocnesta - i know very little about lp. but give me a shot!

@ chunkymunky - lol, i saw that.

[Bigley]

Raul asked me to take a look at his lowpoly and see if there was anything I thought that I would change and it was hard to tell through the pictures. And the guy was nice enough to send me his obj of this badass model to look over. So I did a little paintover of the things that I found and he said I could post it on here.
Here you go man. Thanks for letting me work on your awesome model. it was fun. And I really hope this helps

[Raul]

thank you JJ for taking the time to ruin..i mean, point out things on my chair! :P Most of JJ's tips were pretty awesome, tho, instead of reducing it more, i just added more where it needed more silhoutte values.

moving on...textures for the chair are on the works. here is a rough pass. Thinking of making 2 versions one that looks like the photop, and one with my own twist.



im currently using marmoset to preview my textures as i work, but it is pissing me off. So i started using the new 3point studios shader. Which is ****ing awesome!! I dont have screenshots of that yet...

Any feedback or suggestions are welcome!

[TekNeek]

Vey very nice!

Pretty awesome stuff, Raul! I really like how that diver helmet came out, nicely done!

[chunkymunky]

Awesome colouring, very natural and vibrant, looking excellent
