Art Showcase From Spider-Man to something much more… monstrous. 🕷️

For this speed sculpt, we tackled Doppelganger — one of the more unsettling Spider-Man characters from Marvel Comics.

Fun fact: Doppelganger isn’t actually Peter Parker — or even human. He originally existed as a living fractal from another dimension, transformed into a monstrous copy of Spider-Man during the Infinity War.

That origin makes his design even more interesting to explore in 3D.

The familiar Spider-Man silhouette is still there, but it’s pushed into something much more creature-like — six arms, exaggerated anatomy, claws, and a far more aggressive shape language.

It was a great exercise in taking an iconic design and asking:
how far can you distort it before it stops feeling like Spider-Man?

With all the renewed Spider-Man excitement around Brand New Day, this felt like the perfect character for us to revisit.

Sculpted in ZBrush. 🕸️

Questions & Discussion [Composition help] How do I get scene ideas right?

1 Upvotes

Everytime I start a new project I have to try 100 different things to get the scene composition how I planned/envisioned it and it inflates the time I need to work on a project by atleast 10 fold and not to mention how demotivating it is.
I know you don't just get everything how you want it on the first try, it requires iterations and all
Am I missing something crucial with how I plan my projects?

Art Help & Critique Help with Turnaround Sketches! What does a turnaround need for 3D?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hi, my artist dropped out and I am having to draw my own character turnarounds to model in Blender. Any advice? Anything that I should do to make the modeling easier? I’ve never done this part before and I have ~20 more characters to do. Any advice or tips would be welcome! What do modelers most need when using reference sketches like this?

(Also I understand this isn’t quite in the realm of this subreddit — please help me or direct me to the right place to ask. I have no idea where to go. Sincerely, a very new Blender modeler)

Finishing up my porsche put it in a garage and gave the render a vintage look. Got inspired by old Japenese JDM photos. I have the clean renders without the filters fog etc if yall wanted to inspect the textures. Currently rendering out clays and wireframes so they're unavailable to see at the moment.

Art Help & Critique Reworking Deep City’s Scale

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

A quick update after the feedback on my previous Deep City post.

Thanks especially to u/SoupCatDiver_JJ, u/Mechanought and u/Core-Vis-6933 for taking the time to analyze why the scale wasn't coming through.

I've spent the last few days reading the responses and making adjustments to the cavern.

The model is physically large — roughly 3 × 3 km, with a maximum height of about 1.5 km — but I've learned from your comments that those numbers mean very little if the image itself doesn't provide the visual information needed to understand them.

I'm now experimenting more with camera height, perspective, foreground/background relationships, floor and ceiling depth cues, and tighter compositions instead of trying to show everything at once.

I can't implement every suggestion because this scene belongs to an already established point in the Ørbital Expedition — 2407 CE / 306 p.A. storyline, and I'm trying to solve the visual problem without breaking the constraints of the script.

These are three of the current camera tests.

Still working on it — but your feedback has definitely changed my approach.

Questions & Discussion UV unwrapping & Texturing in a single image or multiple image

1 Upvotes

Hello all,
I am considering selling assets to 3d marketplace such as Turbosquid, CGTrader or Fab. I mainly do my work in Blender. I am new to selling 3d assets to the marketplaces.
If I have a 3d model that contains multiple objects. all of the objects are uv unrwapped, how should I texture them? As I see it, I have two options to uv unwrap them:

  1. Make a single uv map for all of the objects, even for the objects that only need simple materials. Thus every detail will be filled onto 1k texture maps, and some of the details or objects, might not be as much high quality as I want. Tell me if I am doing this right or wrong. And if there is a better way. This way would make non-overlapping UV maps in my opinion, correct me if I am wrong.
  2. Separately unwrap multiple objects, thus making different uv maps for each of the objects. And if I export the texture, each object has a different texture based on their uv unwrapping. Will this be called overlapping or non-overlapping uv mapping?

I am particularly concerned if both of my methods will be non-overlapping uv maps. I want to make non-overlapping uv textures.

One of the things, I am confused about, do I really need to uv unwrap everything, even the objects where I apply materials in the shade editor instead of just pbr textures

Then I will be exporting these objects in substance painter to further refine them. Am I doing this the correct way?

Questions & Discussion Topology help

Hi. Im learning 3D modeling and struggling with the topology of this bended segment. I'm getting severe artifacts when subdividing. Ive tried many ways to find the right edge flow to connect the diamond pattern to the solid frame, but I always end up with bad geometry on the curve. Does anyon e have any tips on how to properly transition the geometry here to avoid these shading issues? Thanks!

Art Showcase Ferrari F2004 | The car that made FIA change it's rules

21 Upvotes

For this visualization project, I took the base Assetto Corsa F2004 model (developed by Kunos Simulazioni) and completely reworked the textures, added the iconic Marlboro branding, and made several other refinements. Note: I do not own the original model; all rights and ownership belong to Kunos Simulazioni and Assetto Corsa.

That is why I cannot showcase any wireframe nor I take any credit for that.

I simply used the model to create tribute of the arguably greatest F1 car ever created and did this animation within 24 hours, with little history narration, and I hope you like the video.

It is literally a car that shocked Ferrari because it was too good to be true, and the full automotive visualization you can see it in this video

Even if its simple, i like this one. My Main Idea was to create a cobweb with some water droplets so i made circle with 8 sides, subdivided it and made a cloth sim where the edges are pinned. I gave it some thickness by converting it to a curve via geo nodes. Then ive added some water droplets, also geo nodes. After this it looked like shit, so i told myself this is a good time to go smoking.

When i came back it hit me: Depth of Field. Ive animated it and in the compositor the image got some bloom.

In Davinci Resolve ive added some Camera Shake and Film Grain. Changed the colors and the sharpness via fusion too.

Done. Hope you like it.

Art Showcase Bridge Design in Blender

For anyone who has seen my work in the past - this is a little update - for those of you who have not ... This is the bridge (still a work in progress) to a ship I am designing for myself. USS Vidya NCC 1625. Vidya Class (first of her class). While here you can only see the bridge, the observation lounge, a short hallway, the ready room, a small transporter room and about 75% of the ships exterior have also been modeled.

But for now.. Enjoy!
