Tutorial: Creating Realistic Skin for Characters

Hey Everyone!

Tutorial: Creating Realistic Skin for Characters

So I have finally done it, it has been up for a few days now so some of you may have already come across it but my skin tutorial is finally done.

It is split up into 2 parts, One is on the Texturing process the other is on the Look Dev process.
You can find out all about the series in this short intro video I put together: Link

And I also posted one of the chapters on my Youtube channel as a taste test: Link

So here are some close up renders I did to show the final result I will be achieving in these tutorials. I go through every part of the process and none of it is sped up or time lapsed.

Tutorial: Xgen Hair for Characters

Hey everyone.

I know I have been meaning to finish my skin tutorial, but to wrap up the character I wanted to give him some hair and I decided to dive right into Xgen for Maya. I came up with a pretty solid workflow and thus thought I would put out a tutorial while it was still fresh in my mind.

Here is the link to the tutorial: https://gumroad.com/l/avAxQ

Watch the youtube video for some more info on the tutorial.

Rock Pile Tutorial: Instancing in MASH

I recorded a free tutorial which you can find on my Youtube channel where I go through the process of generating a rock pile through instancing, using the new feature in Maya Ext 2, MASH. I have also provided the scene file for a small cost which contains the lighting I used as well as the rock assets and all of their textures.

Rock Pile Tutorial

Hey guys

Here is a look at my latest tutorial.

This is another tutorial on how to create a believable pile of rocks.

I have been dealing with a lot of rocky environments at work lately and have come up with a good technique for creating big piles of detailed rocks with very little effort.

Apologies for the quality of the video and audio, I will paste the script below for you to use because it isn't really readable in the video.

SCRIPT:

float $scaleX = rand(1,2);

float $scaleY = rand(1,2);
float $scaleZ = rand(1,2);
scalePP = <<$scaleX,$scaleY,$scaleZ>>;

float $rotX = rand(1,2);
float $rotY = rand(1,2);
float $rotZ = rand(1,2);
rotPP = <<$rotX,$rotY,$rotZ>>;

objid = floor(rand(0.99));
