Bench Texturing in Progress

Diffuse Map









Speaking to Nigel on Thursday, made me realise that if I truly wanted a weather worn bench then it needed to be far more grey and desaturated such as the new map below;



 Specular Map


Below is my painted specular map from Mudbox. You can see the details of matte areas of the model in black; I have paid particular attention to the cracked areas, and scratched areas on my texture.
 Below is an adjusted Specular map showing less contrast between the two - though I am thinking of putting a pale gray base colour to the map to try and reduce the areas of shiney-ness on my model as a whole.

Below is a screenshot showing my specular map applied to the model;

I am a Second Year Games Art and Design student at Norwich University of the Arts. After exploration of a number of roles in my first year, I am now looking to graduate as a 3D Artist with applicable skills in Maya, Mudbox, ZBrush and Photoshop. I understand that my skills in this field are not there yet - but I aim to achieve this goal through consistently working through the programs in my University and Personal Projects. I love to be busy - I have always had a lot of things on my plate since the age of 7 where I successfully balanced school with Ballet, Tap, Horse-Riding, French, Piano and Singing Lessons! In the same fashion, my university schedule is just as hectic and varied; I am a Peer Mentor to first year students, Student Rep for Second Year, and President of the Enterprise Society. Like I said, I love to be busy! I am a Games Hippie - so to speak - I believe that Games if designed and harnessed in the right way, will be able to help solve many of the global issues we have today - even if it starts off in a small way. Just look at the positive effects that Facebook and Twitter have already had... When navigating my blog;
  • Works in Progress - This section is a constantly running account of all my current projects - personal and for university. It will contain reference images and website links and sometimes less than coherent posts, so be prepared!
  • Finished Pieces - This is where you will find my more polished artwork. Looking for help with Maya? Check out the posts tagged "Maya How-To's"
