Glock-19 Project 1 Summer - Week 3

This week was a very short week as I had a personal commitment out of state that I needed to attend to. 

Goal: Lighting set up, AO bakes

I have been learning how to use Marmoset, these renders are in there

AO Bake

Glock-19 (Clean Up) Project 1 Summer

 GOAL: Clean up and get beautiful renders. This will allow me to start applying to jobs with a piece worth looking at. 

Week 1: Clean up Topology and UVs

 

Before

After

I took it from 27k tris to 10k tris. I can go lower but I want this piece to be for a portfolio render and then go all the way down to 1-5k. 

I am using 3 UV Maps, I just want the portfolio/beauty shots to look super good.

UV_1 Frame, UV_2 Slide, UV_3 Mag and Misc

Week 2: Get a clean Bake and add Decals

I am having a problem when opening Substance Painter; the mesh gets chopped and it looks like the decals and bake don't work, but if you get close it looks fine. I'm guessing it's a processing problem and not a texture/bake problem, I am doing 4k textures and 3 UV maps 

The rest of my Schedule looks like this.

Week 3: Lighting set up, Marmoset AO bakes, and beginning of texturing.

Week 4: Texturing and Renders. 

I will be missing 5 days due to a personal trip from 5/29 to 6/2. This cuts down my timeline to texture and render.
