Michael vicente - Orb

Finally centralized all my “next-gen” pixel art experiments into one ArtStation post (at last xD). These learnings will definitely come in handy for this new side project I just started with my friend. #pixelart #unity #gamedev artstation.com/artwork/x3xagr

@mochasucks Unless you're purely talking about selecting things or it's a joke I don't understand, I disagree about the shape and I'm pretty sure most people would. Left is a thousand times more pleasing and more round looking imo.

The aseprite ellipse tool by default makes bad circles (left) and I have to manually make them good (right) we are born to suffer

@Kivicom_games I'm not full time, this is still a side project ^^

@orb_3d So I am not the only one ex-Zbrusher now full time indie dev? The art is looking insane

Still working on my game xD. Sorry I’ve been quiet lately, so here are 4 screenshots as a peace offering.

@100PercentRobot In this case, it’s clearly using my work as the main 2D input while pretending it was prompted with “fantasy axe.” But all of my art was still used in training for 2D, which ultimately also feeds into 3D generation. They do not rely only on meshes, it’s all completely intertwined

@orb_3d Your models were published on the internet? 3D training isnt like image training. Usually need a mesh

I mean I knew I was trained on, but now they're not even hiding it xD...

@SoDotReckless @jakub_nedza thank you! yeah it's pretty much using a lot of the learnings from the zombie prototype. There's a lot of new things as well, like the way we handle metal, sand glitter, toon shader on rounder objects etc, I'm glad people like it ^^

@orb_3d @jakub_nedza This is utilizing that new next gen method of pixel art creation that you demoed with the zombie apartment project you did some time ago? Cause i loved how you merged both new school and old school techniques looks fantastic!

@web3h3nry sorry I don’t, i’m trying to make a game with it.

@orb_3d do you sell the assets ?

@AcheUnderscore_ 5 ans d’études pour faire autant de raccourcis… faut te mettre au speedrun..

Salut. Ca fait cinq ans que j'étudie comment le nationalisme et le colonialisme ont des échos dans le jeu vidéo. J'ai rarement vu un jeu aussi misogyne, orientaliste et inconsciemment droitard qu'Expedition 33. 🥖💀 youtu.be/Z8M8q80bTKg 💀🥖

New TUTORIAL : Semi-Realistic Stylized Asset Creation WorkflowMaya, ZBrush & Substance Painter 🥳 artstation.com/artwork/RKRV2y #3D #Tutorial #Maya #Stylized #Zbrush #SubstancePainter

@scottpetrovic I like the animals, it's a nice addition, having templates for the most common ones, like a spider, a quadruped mamal (fox already), a fish, etc

Update 6 Released for Mesh2Motion! 🎉 ✨ Explore page to view all animations ✨ Added a few animations for bird and fox ✨ Better control rigs for animators Full release notes: mesh2motion.org/news Try it out: app.mesh2motion.org Would love feedback

So far it only offers handmade animations, which aren’t always very smooth. It’ll probably need a mocap option to compete with Mixamo’s quality. Also, adjustable arm spread was a nice feature. I'd love to be able to snap the camera in 45 degree angles as well, like isometric.

This could become a strong contender to replace Mixamo, which remains widely used despite being completely neglected by Adobe.

@slayzillaa Steal a video, ignore the original artist (death_render), and get 8,000 retweets. Some people really embody the word parasite.

I'm obsessed with @BALLxPIT ost. It's a real vibe. youtube.com/playlist?list=…

@RelicAbyss let's go xD

Why the heck are these things back? It's pretty annoying.

@Mgn_nikey yeah I saw that it might be the issue, I'd be surprised if it is, but who knows, my kitchen isn't far :(

@orb_3d I heard that could be humidity problem, when liquid condensates inside cintiq

My 2017 Cintiq 27QHD, is showing strange vertical smudges... Now their 27" is twice the price I paid (not including their ridiculous stand at 600 dollars). I think it's time to try other brands and stop giving money to wacom.. Huion any good?

@1NightVision1 I'm not sure I can..I think it's the screen itself, not just the glass, might be humidity buildup etc. :/

@orb_3d Could it be that you can replace the front part? If the monitor is ok, then if a replacement is available, it should be possible to fix this :)

@Joefy200 hmmm, second person to say the colors are off.. That might be a deal breaker for me... I do paint a lot

@orb_3d I’ve been using a Huion for a couple of years now and I think it’s great! Sure the colors aren’t perfect but I mostly use it for sculpting so it’s not that important for me

@dgrebenkov agh, that's concerning.. tho I had a lot of color issues with wacom as well lol

@orb_3d If you have a chance - test it. I was using huion for some time now moved back to Wacom . Main bad thing is colors. Pale and inaccurate. As for rest of tablet stuff - they are perfectly fine. I’m on MacBook Pro with wonderful screen and that color difference is killing me.

@WokkisDraw xp-pen looks promising, but they don't have 27 inch, which is a deal breaker for me. I'm too used to this size now, all my custom UIs are using 27 haha.

@orb_3d been using XP-Pen Gen2 and it's served me wonderfully, but i've tested a classmate's huion and it was really good too
