Well, first off I think that having pixeled anti-aliasing next to the edge of a polygon looks bad, but that just IMO. Everything else looks fine though.

How did you create the texture? Did you paint on the model or export UVs?

Export UVs and then pixel in Photoshop. I used a 32px square brush. There might be a way to work on 1:1 pixels and then scale the map, but since I'm still figuring out how things work I went for this instead, the end result looks like what I had in mind. I still need to figure out the best topology for these kinds of textures, though.

Aw jeez thanks DF! I'll let you know when I get to that point for sure. Your robot lady's cool, she reminds me a lot of Crescens from Xenogears. Today I did some Nihei inspired architecture. Gotta texture it and add in all the detail-y bits now. It took a lot less time than I imagined it would have to make something like this.

Super satisfying, Azure. @Armageddon oh jeez. I was gonna post something like "More to the point:" and link the first bridge from Blame! but then I went to get it and found it to be totally different. Just goes to show that Naissancee really nailed the Nihei aesthetic and that I didn't do my homework. Time to redesign, there's a difference between homage and plagiarism and I don't wanna cross it.

I have been learning 3dsmax a bit / making a low poly house. I'm finding UV mapping and texturing to be bit of a fiddle and very time consuming. Not that I work quickly in 3D. @Letsap, your architecture stuff is rad as all heck.

I think after more practice you might find it enjoyable. I know it gives an inexplicable satisfaction for me now and I really struggled with it at first. Textures are hard work though. No way around it.

I hope so, I think I just need to get familiar with/know about all the useful buttons and gizmos so that I'm spending less time chasing menu screens. I disagree about the texturing though, that's the most funnest part, dude. It would be better however if only I could get viewport canvas to work properly. Textured boiler thing.

Here, have some shiny bells! They spin! And to letsap, awesome architecture. I can't wait to see it when it's finished and you've added lighting to the scene. It's going to look wicked!

Hey guys I'm quite new to the TIG forums,
I've been meaning to start 3-D modeling for games for a while but i have no clue where to start.
Any help?

Download Blender, follow online tutorials to get used to the interface, and then start modeling!

Of course I know, I used to toy around blender as a kiddo. I never got far into my projects, but I know the basics of modeling, uv mapping, seams, textures, materials and stuff like that. I used to make robots and I would dream of making games with those models. Alas, it never happened, but maybe in the future as I learn.

Nice gears there, Azure; what methods did you use to figure out how many teeth you needed? I've done some gears myself in the past and that was a huge pain. I promise that this redesign was necessary: http://imgur.com/a/Qlle8Finally decided on her using a "gun" to channel her magic; her face needed updating anyway, as well. I also recently realized that I was doing a specific thing with most everyone's color scheme; They have a mostly monochromatic scheme with any amount of neutral browns, but then I do one or two elements in a different color entirely, which ends up adding a bit of visual interest. Gil's mostly oranges and browns with a red cape, and Van's mosly blues with a red sash, for example.
