Taros 374 Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Nice. Is the cat 3d too? Looks like a 2d element in this image. Quote Link to comment
Member altix 10 Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Dear Taros, I model the cat in 3D Coat and made several retopology layers depending on colors of the fur. Say if my layer was intended for black fur, I delete from it all polygons that should be of different color. The fur was simulated in 3d Max. And after transfer it into mesh I hide the fur layers. The main body layer I painted in 3D Coat and then backed its color map. This color map I slightly tweaked in Photoshop using the textures of real cat fur. On the final stages I add the white contours on the cat in Photoshop. So I used 2D elements on some stages of my work, but I think this is Ok and many do this during map preparation and post-processing. I added some pictures to this album to illustrate this.

Taros 374 Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Thank you for the infos. Looks good. The only thing I don't like is the clean elements on the stairs. I miss some dirt oveall. Dirt and natural decay would give your scene much more reality and atmosphere. 1 Quote Link to comment

Member altix 10 Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Dear Taros and Michaelgdrs, I added a new picture with some texture of dirt. I have a feeling that I exaggerated with dirt a little bit. I remember the astonishing white pavements in small Greek towns. But I think now it looks anyway much more realistic )) Thank you for a tip! 1 Quote Link to comment
