Ornatrix Features #4 - Parting Brush(Maya)

Image
  In this episode - you'll see the brush settings in Ornatrix for Maya to get a quick Parting. I recorded such a video - at the request for subscribers in Discord chat. Mikhail showed how it works in Houdini and asked - is it possible in Ornatrix? In this video I showed working with guides, but you can use this trick for hair as well.  I used to record videos like this with "link access," but now I thought they would be useful for everyone and decided to slowly open them up on the channel. The goal of the series is to quickly show something interesting and useful related to this plugin.  My time is not wasted on the voiceover, because there are already basic lessons - which also need to do =) But as - I do not load them very often, I need to do something else to promote the channel.  --- PREVIOUS SERIES: ➡️1 series - https://youtu.be/x16TlHsahTU   ➡️2 series - https://youtu.be/IPd4-XKP7Kg   ➡️3 series - https://youtu.be/nZXXG7ZE9Vg   --- CONTENTS: 0:06...

GIGABYTE AERO 15 OLED YD: V-Ray 5 Benchmark. Part 1/NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop(16Gb)

Image
  This is the fifth episode about my GIGABYTE AERO 15 OLED YD( https://bit.ly/3dK8gB7 ) laptop and in this episode I test V-Ray 5 Benchmark in different modes and also do a render test of the first two scenes with RTX ON/OFF on the GPU - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop with 16GB of video memory/CPU - i9-11980HK. The speed gain on these scenes is 30%-56%, which saves enough animation rendering time. In V-Ray 5 Benchmark - there are 3 options: ➡️Just V-Ray - testing the CPU ➡️V-Ray GPU CUDA is RTX OFF on the GPU ➡️V-Ray GPU RTX - RTX ON In this video, I tested a scene I'm currently working on for Samir Mir's character - https://www.artstation.com/artwork/682lBw   Its WIPS can be seen here - https://www.artstation.com/artofcharly/albums/3447046   And the second scene is the already well-known dog, which I did back in 2019.  https://www.artstation.com/artwork/yb35w5   Of course this is only the head, since I'm still preparing a full body to render, since the final sc...

How to export a scene with Ornatrix hair in Vray .vrscene from Maya and render it in 3ds Max?

Image
  In this video I show you how to export the created hairstyle Ornatrix Maya/V-Ray Renderer in .vrscene format and render it without Ornatrix - in 3ds Max or Cinema 4D.   Very often - I was asked for such a possibility, because not always clients in the same Cinema4D or 3ds Max - want to buy Ornatrix, and it is necessary to render in it. In Cinema4D - did not show, because I do not have a V-Ray license for it. But =) The principle is the same. You just select the V-Ray Scene object and load the scene. By the way, this method allows you to render scenes faster and saves GPU memory. And if you render via Batch, as I showed here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZgt_lAsv8g   it will be even faster =)  Information about this format - https://docs.chaos.com/display/VMAYA/VRayScene   --- PATREON: If you want to get all the lessons with my voiceover as soon as possible, not wait years for each episode to come out, and also dive into the friendly groomers community on ...

Alfred Hitchcock – Vertigo | My 3D Groom Concepts: Ornatrix/Maya | Microids & Pendulo Studios

Image
  In this video I talk about the game Alfred Hitchcock - Vertigo by Microids & Pendulo Studios, which was released on December 16, 2021 and in its creation - I also participated as an R&D Concept Groomer. For the game I did 3d Hair Concept Art. That is, my task was - to create a 3d groom concept hairstyles for Ed, Nick, Ed Young and Julia, as well as - offer a workflow that can be used for the game. That is, HairCards for the Unity engine. But since I don't work in it, I showed all the workflow in Marmoset Toolbag. My work was used as a reference for further integration into the game. This has already been done in the team by other 3D-Artists.   Specifically: ➡️Javi Muñoz González https://www.artstation.com/javier_mgonzalez   - Ed, Julia, Nick ➡️Samuel Ortiz https://www.artstation.com/samikx   - EdKid First I show my 3D-Groom concepts, and then I demonstrate how it looks in the game.  --- PATREON: If you want to get all the lessons with my voiceover as s...
