I want one of you to show me how to make low poly model like this. Please show me. Please, please. Please. I want someone to stream and show me. Please. Why the fuck do I have to learn on my own. Please show me.
>>973764your link doesn't work. Let me guess, it's that dota 2 link that doesn't even apply in this scenario.
>>973768it works now, yep it's the dota 2 link. You been posting this link for like 3 years now. You post it regardless of context. Regardless of what question is asked. >h-how do I sculpt? >*links dota link that doesn't talk about that. >h-how do I use substance painter? >*links dota link that doesn't talk about that. Do you even do 3D?
>>973770Does he seriously spend 30 hours sculpting that pirate?
>>973770The OP picture does not use sculpt or baking. There's no reason to sculpt a high poly model. Look at the face, look at the outfit. That's not a high poly model baked onto a low poly model. That's hand painted directly. You are retarded if you think someone has to waste 30 hours sculpting for a low poly model like this. Also links you gave are ugly higher poly characters. You clearly don't have much experience doing 3D if you can't see that the OP picture is entirely texture painted.
>>973783The fake ambient occlusion looks like it was very quickly added with a soft brush. I think you could replicate those results in about five minutesI also suspect you could get decent results by texturing the low-poly directly in substance painter. Making an entire sculpt+retopo for that level of detail just seems completely unnecessary

>>973787this sub is so fucking disingenuous, one guy is advertising his udemy course that has nothing to do with topic. >>973783It's faster to texture paint the shadow. If you are telling someone to spend 30 hours sculpting just to convert the high poly to low poly. ALL for the sake of shadows, you clearly are either retarded or don't have any experience at all with making a character. The fact that you been linking the dota shit for 6 years, and you didn't even know you could just paint the shadow is depressing. to think you were the guy who posted a spoonfeed picture, when you literally have dunning kruger. I'm laughing my ass off that I tried asking for advice from people who don't even do 3D. And you clowns are the ones with god complexes.
>>973795You're retarded man. I put a picture for reference, there's no situation where baking or high poly sculpting is preferable here. How is 30 hours sculpting then retopo to bake. Easier than 5 minutes of texture painting. You literally have never touched 3D once in your life. Linking shit from 7 years ago. Alzheimers retard who can only repeat the same things regardless of context.
>>973796>there's no situation where baking or high poly sculpting is preferable hereBaking AO from 3d information (including painted or noise-driven height/normal details) can give you nice results and it's very easy in Blender. Doesn't require any sculpting, just paint on some bump details (if you want) and bake.For the style of the OP, it's probably overkill, but for something even slightly less low-fi and stylized it would probably give nicer results.
tutorials are slow because youre learning. once you understand it, it will take half the time, maybe less.Be patient.
>>973789>this subGo back.
>>973813once you get how modeling works you can just skim through a tutorial in a few seconds
You liked my thread OP?>>973631Slightly off-topic but does anyone have more models (or textures and images of them) made by shrapnelsoup? He used to frequent this board and I'm sure someone must've saved his stuff.
>>973763Whoa those are some bad tits
>>973763You sound insufferable. Go look up tutorials on YouTube
>>973771he is streaming it, so mostly a lot of teaching/talking, hell I skimmed it, and he was going on about making a playdough finger to have a scorpion attack it to extract poison. but in skimming... its like holy shit, he is barely using the program to sculpt, at that point he in all honestly would have been better off getting a base model and then moving over to blender or any other poly modeling program rather than trying to poly model in z brush.
>>973781its far FAR easier to sculpt an organic thing and then scale back with a remesh than it is to make it ground up from pollies unless you specifically draw it to be modeled.
>>978073for a model as lowpoly as the one in the op image you definitely do not need to sculpt and remesh and bake etc its very clearly handpainted texturesto remesh it you would be losing so much detail theres literally zero benefit to sculpting and remeshing it all for a baked texture you wont need because op is handpaintedyour method would require so much correcting and polymodeling you might as well have just polymodeled it to begin with, massive waste of time
>>973763I just go here>https://www.models-resource.com/and download a model I like and study it, it's topology, it's textures. No fucking industry big wig is going to teach you how to make texture convey form to keep poly counts down, all they know is pixar shit.
>>978075oh, i'm not saying bake anything, I mean its far easier to shape the body with a sculpt and remesh it, nothing to the level of baking, just enough to get a low poly out of it.especially if you suck or if you are going into it with no model reference images, moving around some 'clay' is far easier than unfucking low poly mesh. then you build up the mesh from the sculpt correctly.
>>973763Learn To DRAW
>>973763Download PS1/N64 model rips and study their topology and texturework
>>973763Shit man low poly like that you can just import a drawing as an image plane and trace the contours with your verts. Easy stuff.
>>973763looks pretty simple to me, and texturing on it would just be dithering & posterization. shadows & highlights are painted in, but there is rimlight and bearly any shadows being cast so its not 100% flat-ly lit.unironically just try and recreate the model you posted, fuck off this website, and see what you can do with your eyes. get stuck? look it up on youtubeI would recommend picrel for more reference in that type of style but beware, HE is a troonanybody have an archive of shrapnelsoup's work? seems he deleted everything
>>979106That's more PS2/3DS-tier than PS1.
What shape are her thighs and arms?
>>980350probs wrong, but close from what i can tell
>>973763Better get in on the ground floor before low poly gooning takes off.
>>973763Show us what you've managed to get on your own.
>>980384Ive been waiting for people to make games like this for a decade now, still pretty much nothing outside of Froggun and Psuedoregalia
>>973763I've seen a couple of this guys works on his tumblr before it disappeared. He usually sculpted the models first in Zbrush before making low poly versions of them.
>>973763>That handLook at real low poly from videogames, simple as
>>980384Now THIS, how do I make models like this? This is way better than OP's image. MML art style is SOUL
>>981137Here's your learning material, now get to work.https://www.models-resource.com/playstation/megamanlegends/https://www.models-resource.com/playstation/megamanlegends2/
>>981182not that anon, but just looking at the models only goes so far. a lot of these old school models make heavy use of triangles over quads, and it's hard to wrap my brain around em compared to quadshair is definitely being done differently in that gif compared to the MML models too, since vast majority of MML models build the hair off the head
>>981183I'm sure whatever software you use has a feature to turn pairs of triangles back into quads without ruining the models, or you could do it by hand. I don't think the artist who made that GIF ever released his models or posted wireframes IIRC, sorry.
>>981183>model the rest of the fucking owl
>>981137just learn 256 poly modelling, it's really no different from OP's example. the only thing that makes it distinct is the use of pixel art for the texturing.
>>981182>No Yuna or naked Sera modelsGoddamnit it's been over two decades why haven't all the models from these games been ripped yet?
>>981383The games make heavy use of overlay binaries, and not only slap code into overlay files, but data too, including raw model formats that use raw pointers, iirc.Source: I tried decompiling MML1 once.
