Maybe even replicating the scene entirely.

I intend to push this further though, bringing the details of the darker border bricks and the black and white trim bricks eventually. I also used the same technique for the rock ore post in using specular that was generated from crazy bump to help push the colour map. Then finding source images with similar colour tones and making them tileable I just blended them together. Because of the workflow I took, I had to crop the normal map and use the offset filter to check for seams. I essentially just started out in Max, creating the high poly pattern itself. I really digged the brick pattern on the ceiling so i quickly whipped this texture up for the main section. I really liked this image of an abandoned subway station in America. I'm sure there cheaper and better stylus's out there. I really don't like using my finger to draw on the iPad for the obvious reasons, hence the stylus purchase. I thought that the stylus should have come with a lid to protect the soft nib.Īll that is minor when it comes to actually using it on the iPad because in all honesty, I can see myself using my iPad even more now, especially for artsy stuff like drawing.

I really don't know why they didn't design it like a normal tablet pen, the grip is uncomfortable as its metal and not a non-slip material.įor some idiotic reason there's a bloody metal clip on it which will get in the way and does not come off. The grip is whack though, it doesn't feel like tablet pen. The stylus itself is pretty neat as a stylus, the nib is soft and spongey and relatively small too, which is nice i guess. I keep thinking I could just use a sketch pad though.

Came in the post today which is great considering its a bank holiday! On my morning travels to work on the train I come across a wide variety of looking people that i'd love to sketch for something to do, so i thought I'd make more use out of my iPad, sure I cold use pen and paper but when I want functionality, brushes and other great things that come with photoshop.sketchbook pro is a great alternative for when I am away from the pc.
