3D Art - Week06 - Simple Crate and Barrel Part 2

 Final:

This week’s main task is to learn how to create a game-resolution model. Because of performance constraints, games usually don’t use high-poly models directly; instead, we bake high-poly detail onto a low-poly mesh to optimize performance. In Maya, we can retopologize the model using the Quad Draw tool. After retopo, we unwrap the UVs, then in Substance Painter bake the high-poly data onto the low-poly. Since bakes can introduce artifacts, I manually fixed the normal-map errors in Substance Painter.
