3dsmax : cracks between the bricks


Post reply

Vertex Master
I'm making a house of lego bricks, and the cracks between the bricks are not visible. I tried to make it piece by piece.. but still the cracks are not visible.. any ideas?
Murat
All you need is to put yer texture in photoshop and draw a thin line of darker color at the bottom of the texture, then align your texture bottom with brick bottom same for sides
Vertex Master
sure but thats cheating it's like fakeing the cracks
Murat
What's cheating? isn't all 3d cheating?
Vertex Master
modeling is allways better than texturing

But what about scrapes and rust on metal. That's not modeled. :P How would you model scratches and all that anyway?
Vertex Master
By using zbrush, with displacement map dumped to max..as 1
kinoman

Vertex Master
