[Texture] GPBO

CTRifle · 2012-12-18, 00:02

Hey guys, did this texture for ddeo for the GPBO nade launcher still WIP but close to done I think, havent done normal maps or any of that yet. Still have to add the scratches on some edges. Also does anyone know where I can get the markings for the scope for distance?

We are working on it CTRifle. Bagno actually send an email with question about photo of GPBO's ironsight to our friendly polish unit.

Waiting for response, in the meanwhile lets fix what we can. These a photo references we have from web (without the ironsights of course):

(NGO-N, NGD-N)

and small gallery:

I think you will have to fix the grenades head (different color) and add some more details to the grenade launcher itself (not only scratches) - there are little holes missing I think. Also not whole barrel is darker, take a closer look.

Should look into using Marmoset Toolbag to help see you're textures. From the looks of it, looks kinda flat, probably due to no proper way of rendering the normals and specular maps. There definitly needs some more "color" in the greys. Take a read/watch Racer445's tutorial on texturing along with Millenia's texturing video. Definitely some good pointers in there.

Yea its not my model and he hasn't done any normal maps and such. Ill take a look at the video as well and what do you mean more color? As in more shades or gray on it?

Well when dealing with textures for metal, usually there's hints of blue, or red. They're are very lightly done but can be seen and will give off a better detail. Next would be brushes, or use image sources from cgtextures.com to give it more detail. To do that just layer on top of layer, erase and change opacity to give more detail. I could go in better detail but I guess I can show you what I mean.

Oh alright I see it, and for the brushes/things from CG are the scratches and extra details your talking about?

EDIT: So I need a color texture, normal map and specular right?

Adriaan · 2012-12-19, 17:03

Normal isn't needed if there's nothing you want to put in there, other than that yeah colour/diffuse and spec.
