Major Creature 4 Perceived Pipeline

After completing the rig for creature 3 I learnt a lot about potential hiccups and snags for the process as such i will list the new process.

1. sculpt in zbrush

2. export low poly with zremesh guides from zbrush

3. fix issues in export in MAYA

4. rig and skin the topology

5. UV

6. Import low poly to zbrush and use sub-div's to generate new hi poly details.

7. Texture using normal generated from high poly sculpt.

Know how the generate the normal maps should save some time however i aim to save time with the retopology using Zbrushes zeremesher as a base.

Maya Texturing class: Substance 3

Maya Texturing class: Substance 3 In this class we went through the process of texturing this dumpster, recapping the use of fill layers and masks in Substance before being introduced to a few new tools that helped create the look of the textures. first we used the brush to paint in height information using alpha's and different brushes to create dents and parts of pressed metal. We then added anchor points to these layers allowing them to be used is functions that use the curve texture maps generated by the software. This means on the stamps we can use generators like edge ware or light as if it was modelled geometry. We then used the projection tool to project textures onto the dumpster and push onto the paint layer, this makes it easy to add images onto the texture maps for an object. This is seen with the spray can an the Graphic Graffiti on the Dumpster. Maya Render AO Pass Final Composite
