Joa's thread of Suff, Work I have done and what not Options

Excellent texture work, howabout replace the gun with a nice old fashioned telescope?

[Snuffles]

Good progress.

I think the bump is too uniform and exaggerated on some metals, mainly the front of the train's body, which throws the scale off completely. The train feels like a toy train rather than a full scale train with normal metal.

I agree with Martin, a telescope would be great.
Definitely take the bump down a little bit, and watch that fringe in your alpha,
might be you're using tgas and the alpha channel isn't antialiased ?

Ill pay a bit with the bump.

I am not using any alphas. Just a simple diffuse, Specular and bump map. But I'll look in to what I think you are talking about. I think it is 1 evil layer in the photoshop file. That and the bump and specular maps needs updating.

Thanks for all the comments!

[Groen-mier]

Thought ill put an update up.

After playing with a few ideas, I eventually put nothing in the characters hands. Could not get objects to really sell it for me.

Ok, now why not switch to a 21st century resolution/aspect ratio, fix your focal point and do some proper lighting? After you've got the lighting properly laid out, work on your shaders, as they'll look totally different.

[Snuffles]

Nicely modelled but there is no focal point in the image, it is just a large area of brownness. Definitely change up the angle, ratio and lighting ^ to be the parrot.

Thanks Kaya. I agree mostly with what you said. Except I am unclear about the aspect ratio. In a nutshell what is wrong with it?
