[GALLERY] Saggy's Stuff

[Joshflighter]

By "directing eye movement", do you mean something along the lines of creating a focal point, so the viewer's eyes are automatically brought to where the artist intend them to look?

Its about making the intended viewers eyes to follow the cover in mostly a certain directional flow. This allows the user to see all the content but also not think its cluttered. Some people use patterns or other such forms of art to do this. At Least this is my opinion, and that's what I learned from art class. :P

Started working on some cliffs:





Right now, all that right there is 334 polys/692 tris which isn't too bad. I have a lot too fix though. I can see lots of places where I need to make some cuts and fix up some verts/edges.

Also note that this is my first real attempt at trying to achieve decent looking cliffs.

E: Added some more cliffage:



Up to 507 polys/1050 tris now. Definitely want to cut that down...

Looks good.
Wireframe?

[SnaFuBAR]

Too jagged, it looks like crumpled paper.

Won't it look different smoothed tho? Or is it like that? D:

[Roostervier]

Give it more detail in the shape. You don't have to make it look like pure noise, give it some large features.

Different rock type?

[Roostervier]

No rock looks like the cliffs he made. Point is they need more shape and less of the fractal noise.

I guess I should have waited to do the render once I finished making the cuts in the mesh to acutally give it some actual shape.

Sadly, it is smoothed

Definately.

Also, I just felt like putting a quick texture on it, just to see what it would look like. I smoothed out the roughness of the cliffs as well.





MC in there to show scale.

I've seen chalk cliffs in cornwall look rather simular before so i don't know about that...
