Lets see this after texturing

first sculpt ever

I love the attention to subtle details. For example how the surface changes dependent upon damage, it all follows a realistic and logical pattern. I have marked it here on a picture:

Spoiler below!

1: Melted part, where the residues have formed a crust shape on it. The surface is very smooth as expected - a liquid forms a very smooth layer when returning to a solid.
2: The "regular" surface of the anvil, quite smooth but not 100% so. Not as smooth as Nr. 1 - which is to be expected.
3. Part where a chunk has been chipped away. Least smooth part of the three, as expected.

The question marked surface is what I'm wondering about. I looked at some concept art of anvils and they seem to have one square hole and one round hole. The placement of your round hole however seems a bit random, and I first thought it was some sort of damage to the anvil. Even if it is damage - that's hell of a strong blacksmith :>

I'm also wondering what sort of tool made the scratches at the edges of the anvil?

Hopefully you'll find the feedback useful :>

It's a very nice model!

@the hole on the back, I guess it's on the wrong side, and too far out though haha.

As for the scratches on the legs and whatnot, I had intended to make it appear to be very old and have seen a lot of love, chances are being moved around a lot, and since those legs stick out, they'd also be more likely to get bumped by things the blacksmith was carrying by.

Sculpting is a lot easier than I thought it would be, so I might just go back and do some details on those drawers, and hopefully this will be easier to texture, since I can't get anything I like on those drawers ;____;

200 Tris, looks like spending the last two months trying to figure out texturing has finally yielded something that isn't totally atrocious. That's nice.

more texturing practice

Looking good man.

So how do you seam that thing? It looks like you did each piece individually but the texture wraps around nicely.


I can do the texturing if I spend some effort into it, but the seaming always gets on my nerves.

I mirrored the texture in PS near the end of the geometry so it could tile, and then I added details to the texture on one side so it didn't look like it was just mirrored.

If I knew how to edit textures to tile I could do that too, but I don't ;___;

Sel is gettin' pretty bossmode at modeling, just saiyan.

Then again this is coming from someone who was impressed when he made a letter 3D in c4d - but still great work!

[flamez3]

just saiyan.
