'Where did the tips go?'

A few people over the last few months have been asking if I'm going to be adding more tips to this blog. Short answer, not really, but the good news is I've decided to continue elsewhere. I'm now doing it over at gamasutra, to be honest most of the stuff I have there now is reworks of tips I've shared here before but I hope to be creating new content for it in the future. So if you missed the texture art tips head over there and bookmark it,

First Vehicle (and life) - Update

I did start the texture some time ago but since then so much has happened with getting a new job and getting ready to move. Also, I've recently purchased a powerful PC at long last. Tragically, I won't be able to even build it until I've found somewhere to live. Also am getting a new monitor, one that doesn't change colour/lightness depending how you view it resulting in images that are too dark/light such as this...

First Vehicle - Update

Going quite well, need to do some zbrush and a few extra normals here and there and I'm done.

First Vehicle

Working on a old fashioned Hearse. Right now am adding a few little extra bits and bobs before getting it ready for high poly baking and zbrushing.

Zbrush Practice

Generic damaged pillar. Trying to use methods learned from tutorials such as using Surface Noise Feature, new LazyMouse tools and various polycut tools.

Random : no20 'More painting'

Made variation of the previous painting and tweaked it some more.

Random : no19 'Random Quick Painting'

Working with a tiny A6 tablet here where every stroke needs a few seconds to register, I really need a new tablet. I'm still painting away, miss this style of painting (similar to Overlord).
