Advanced Hardsurfaces

Hi guys, for those who, like me, appreciate the beauty and simplicity of low-poly and/or sharp edges, 3d coat's retopo room can work like Zbrush's Zmodeler. Just watch this awesome video (it's translated) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w268-Kdv20E&feature=youtu.be Once you've finished your model ,you can click Bake- Retopo->per pixel and start painting it and rendering etc.. Just tried it with a -yes shitty I know- very simple geometry. Works like a charm.

Scfi Helmet!

Some plane sketches that i did these days

For this lesson, I did a entire space mission design, first the space rocket gettin out of the earth, then, the spatial station, then the rover (who found something) and then the rocket to comeback. 3d coat, Keyshot, and Photoshop final overpainting.

Another one

Hi. I decided to start with a simple one, however it took a lot of time.

Hi guys!
I had lots of fun drawing in 3d. I defined basic shapes and silhouette first and only then have started to work on hard edges and surfaces. Great lesson as always.
Moving to week 4 :)

Could resist and rendered this one.

Doing some studies before I commit to designing something. Trying to figure out Keyshot better to sell my 3d models.

I still have some trouble with paintover a 3D model, reallly not used to do it :)

Hi guys, I have issues with my resolutions here. I'm following step by step what Jama does in the first video of this course but my resolution is looking really bad. When I transform my geometry, I do click on global space so my cylinder edges should look good like in the video. And I don't understand why my cut offs aren't sharp and look at my radial extrusion here.... so frustrating. My cylinder isn't very big (69180 polycount X1), should I turn my density modulation factor to X2 or X3? If so, aren't we supposed to stay at X1? Thank you for your help guys :)

This was before I watched the 3rd week tutorial when I couldn't figure out the 2d paint tool and tried to plot the planes to the surface:)
Thanks Jama- you're a great teacher!

Hey,

Got caught up in some noodling for this one. And I spent a bit too much time on the non-modelling part. But anyways, learned a ton from this week. Hard surface feels very manageable now :)

Onto week 4!
