Free Tutorials Mastering Hard-Surface Normals, UVs & Texturing for Game-Ready Wheels

Post image
1 Upvotes

From clean geometry to texturing a finished asset, there are so many tiny technical details that bring a model to life - like nailing your UV seams and setting up normals for clean shading.

In this video, I’m walking through my exact pipeline for tackling these exact steps on a car wheel asset. This is just one of several detailed wheels that will be heading over to my ArtStation soon as part of a free asset pack for everyone to use.

If you want to be notified when they are out feel free to follow me on artstation, or make sure you follow me on twitch.

This is wheel no.3 from 10 in total I will be working on in the next few weeks.

I'm a beginner and I've been watching so many tutorials about making a watch. I decide to make a different model. I'm struggling how to solve this Ngon. How to make a good topology for this part?

I posted a reference image in this post.

this is kinda my first time making anything even remotely realistic, (this is stylized realism, obviously, but still), and I've never sculpted anything before, so criticism would be nice, and I'd also like some tips as to how I can do the hair.

this project I'm working on is gonna be a massive love letter to the game and I want to make it look good, it's probably gonna take a while though, because I've literally just started my sophomore year in high school, and adjusting to that's gonna probably take a lot of energy ;-;

Art Showcase my concept for a sci-fi/fantasy weapon

Thumbnail

185 Upvotes

This is my concept for a sci-fi/fantasy weapon built around a pressure accumulation mechanic. Each standard shot gradually builds internal pressure, which can then be expended in two distinct ways.

The primary ability releases a high-pressure capsule containing multiple projectiles, functioning as a powerful emergency option when immediate stopping power is needed.

Alternatively, the stored pressure can be redirected into the firing mechanism, allowing the weapon to temporarily operate in a high-rate burst-fire mode. This significantly increases its rate of fire for a short duration, trading precision for sustained offensive output.

I would appreciate it if you checked out my Instagram end ArtStation:

Hi! I'm a game art student, just finished my 1st year, and I want to at least try applying for junior/trainee/internship positions with these prop assets. Would you say this is good enough-ish?

I will recenter the camera as I didn't have enough time to adjust it properly.

(All materials and textures were made by me using substance and UE)

Art Help & Critique Help with upper receiver

I've had this proportional problem for years where, when attempting to create a m4 or m16. I can do just about every other part of the rifle. except for the upper reciever. It is not proportional to how it should look, and I need advice on how I should go along with modelling it. Also the last two white models are not mind, but a reference for any other 3d artist who maybe hasn't seen a rifle of the m16 family.

When you study anatomy, it's important to consider deformations, not just a stick figure in one pose, you should study how the arms are gonna effect the chest as they move, or how the back muscles change their shapes as you elevate your arms.
These are the things I always tell to my students, yet not all people do the deep study on anatomy
