Description So i made the dumpster and the texture on the dumpster and composited it into the alleyway.

have i mentioned how much work even the simpliest stuff is in 3d?
this was done for homework in my texture class. we use Maya. i had a bit of fun and am still working on getting the color/contrast balance right in this image. ^_^

it was requested that i post my 3d homeworks, but i am not nearly as proud of them, so please, only constructive criticism. ^_^

/hug!

Looking good, the only thing I can see is that a bit more film grain and a bump to contrast might help it fit in a bit better; a post render filter would probably be the best bet for it, since it'd only effect the dumpster itself with a similar contrast boost to the rest of the photo. Compositing is such a terrible pain to do.

I hate texturing.
well, i need to get over that, but i really don't like it.
not that it's hard. i just never have had an eye for color and all that.

which is why i loooooove that you're critiquing. you can see what i can't.
if ever i make a new thingy, i am having you look at it! O_O

Heh - I hate doing textures too, which is ironic, because it's where I've done most of my work for game mods and the like. What I really hate, though, is doing UV maps. They are seriously the bane of my existance.

Anyhoo, I'd be more than happy to critique anything you send my way - just drop me a line on Otakubooty or an email if you upload something, because I always forget that I have a deviantart account, so I'm rarely here unless I'm told to come here by someone. ^_^

i will try to post some more digital stuff for you. i can't wait to get to work on my ZBrush class next term. o man i am excited.

Nice! I originally thought it was a straight photo too. Good job with the rust spots. Your dents look a little unnatural though. Most metal dents I've seen are pretty smooth. Not rough like those.
Still great work though

JessicaDru In reply to Codename-46 [2007-12-02 00:18:08 +0000 UTC]

The dents are a basic displacement with a black and white alpha. not very natural... but easy to produce ^_~
i can edit the bump map, thanks for pointing that out. i have to go over all my homework so i can turn in a great reel.

I like it.

from your comment, it seems like you only made the dumpster and everything else came from an image... is that right? only I am confused as to why the writing on the box is backwards :S

JessicaDru In reply to Solpyro [2007-11-20 23:04:52 +0000 UTC]

i flipped the image itself to make things more balanced... so that makes the words all backwards >_< totally didn't notice til now!

This might have been said, but the lack of a shadow on the ground under the dumpster was the biggest sign of composite for me.

The clean top rim also. (that was said)

Still an awesome job, I think at first glance this would pass as a picture.

so blizzard uses maya? I'm...so disheartened...I think I'm gonna cry *sniff*

great texture though, it looks awesome. Unfortunately for me I never got the hang of texturing...I'm a pretty good animator though XD

JessicaDru In reply to sycolution [2007-11-07 21:15:16 +0000 UTC]

blizzard uses a lot of programs, maya is one of them. they also use 3d studio max.

Perhaps its best not to actually tell what programs Blizzard uses?

hehhhee, totally. but because that texture map was projected, it's more of a pain in the ass to get proper displacement/bump etc...
