Not hard.

Yeah, I only noticed (besides the obvious visor/color changes) some changes to the bumps.

Uh, that is polygonal geometry dude.

Well yeah, but I don't know what I'm talking about, so it sounds right from here.

To try and hide bad spots on the render

Not all of it is modeled, Veegie. See: hand ridges / neck / upper middle chest ridges and indentations / upper abdomen.

Why is the blur focused on his foot?

I agree with Veegie, the blur is kinda pointless.

...what the FUCK?

Tank is floating.

The visor is auto-adjusting in regards to brightness.
Material looks horrible too.

The tank isn't floating, he's just using the Shadow Map shadow type on his omni. It doesn't implement transparency withing shadows; it makes them a flat shade. Looks like he used my Halo Rendering Tools preset for that; if he did, he needs to lower the skylight amount to 0.65.

The Chief has the normal diffuse applied to the emblem mesh, instead of the emblem, and the vertices need welding.

Here are some updated materials on one render I did earlier.

Clean version with custom diffuse and alpha channel

Material tests do not belong here.

Welcome to the world or proper image compression.

Its not a material test, theres a difference between that and update. I submitted two versions because I felt like it, it wasnt a test. I had made some improvements since my last one, and felt I would submit it. If it was a test I would have clearly stated that, and I wouldnt have posted it here. If I wanted to put it in halo art showcase, I would have. I posted it here for a reason.

Veegie[Temp] · Post by **Veegie[Temp]** » Thu May 11, 2006 12:59 pm

In that case, please refrain from posting all together in this topic.
I'd prefer to have the progress to the 100th page, that of a sensible one.

Veegie, he submitted something because he wanted and felt like it should go in the gallery. It's odd that you ask people to submit images that they want in the gallery, then chew them out when they do. He already said it was not a material test, but a submission.

It's not up to you to decide who posts in this topic.

Kirk said/says otherwise.

I find that unfair, you can make a topic and choose who can post in it. That's discrimination.
