![]() ![]() Take your time to get use to the perspective confusion, once you got a hang of it, everything will progress smoothly like a T-rex running on butter. I came back and forth between both software countless time to ensure the 360 illusion is perfect. SOME MORE TIPS: During the sketching stage, I exported the artwork into Equirectangular Image ( which I am sharing how in the next step ) and preview it in 360 VR mode with Cinema 4D by adding the Equirectangular Image as texture to a sky object. Here is a simple gif that helps you to understand what I meant: Always sees every Individual Cubemap as a new single-point-perspective-grid. Every time you draw something across an individual Cubemap, re-imagine your perpective into a new single point perspective. SOME TIPS: Create a guide at the edge of each cube. Now you have a proper grid that are painting friendly, you may now begin to work on your magic! Unfortunately Flexify 2 is not made for this purpose, upon conversion you will find these empty white spaces on both sides of your image, these white spaces may create a lot of troubles in future steps, so get rid of them by trimming the spaces. Prepare yourself an Equirectangular Grid like one below and begin converting it into Cubemap.īegin converting the Equirectangular image using Flexify. Step 1: Convert an Equirectangular Image to a Cubemap If you wish to preview your 360 degree artwork during the production, you may try or simply upload your artwork to Facebook. I often used it for my 3D production in Cinema 4D. This software can do variety of panoramic conversion, but for our case we only need Equirectangular to Horizontal Grid.ģ60 Preview – As a Motion Graphic designer, I am no stranger to Equirectangular Images. Painting Software – I will be using Adobe Photoshop CC in this demo, I believe the same idea can apply to any version of Photoshop.Įquirectangular Conversion -The best plugin (that I’ve tried far) for these conversion is Flexify 2. Once you master the concept, you can create your very own Virtual Reality concept art! Preparation: We are not learning to paint our artwork on a curvature template, instead we are going to convert the curvature image into proper perspective image for easy painting. ![]() Algorithm in these platform process your Equirectangular Image and unwarp it into virtual sphere for 360 degree effect. There are more platform than ever in displaying 360 art now. However, the method I am sharing today is using Equirectangular Image which looks something like this:Įntering 2016, I realised that Equirectangular Image is now a common format for Youtube or Facebook to recognise as a 360 degree image. This method was widely used for Game Development in the early days. One of the most common method to create a 360 degree environment is by using Skymap or Cubemap and map it on a 3D cube. This tutorial is meant for Artists and Designers with basic knowledge of illustration, if you are new to digital painting or concept art this demo might not be as helpful. So I am humbly sharing my approach on attempting the 360 degree art. EDIT: This is our outdated method, we wrote a better modern tutorial here: Creating VR Illustration with Photohop CC 17 & 18 See ya on the other side! EDITED 2019įor months, I’ve been researching a perfect way to create 360 virtual reality illustration, and I realised that there not much of decent tutorial out there. ![]()

![]() The archaea that live in extreme environments can cope with conditions that would quickly kill eukaryotic organisms. If not for the DNA evidence, this would be hard to believe. So although archaea physically resemble bacteria, they are actually more closely related to us! Millions of years after the development of archaea and bacteria, the ancestors of today’s eukaryotes split off from the archaea. Many scientists now suspect that those two groups diverged from a common ancestor relatively soon after life began. ![]() Archaea and some bacteria evolved in these conditions, and are able to live in similar harsh conditions today. There was little if any oxygen in the atmosphere. The early Earth was hot, with a lot of extremely active volcanoes and an atmosphere composed mostly of nitrogen, methane, ammonia, carbon dioxide, and water. The ability of some archaea to live in environmental conditions similar to the early Earth gives an indication of the ancient heritage of the domain. But archaeans also share genes with eukaryotes, as well as having many genes that are completely unique.Īrchaea are so named because they are believed to be the least evolved forms of life on Earth (‘archae’ meaning ‘ancient’). Archaea and bacteria also share certain genes, so they function similarly in some ways. This difference led microbiologist Carl Woese of the University of Illinois to propose reorganizing the Tree of Life into three separate Domains: Eukarya, Eubacteria (true bacteria), and Archaea.Īrchaea look like bacteria – that’s why they were classified as bacteria in the first place: the unicellular organisms have the same sort of rod, spiral, and marble-like shapes as bacteria. A type of prokaryotic organism that had long been categorized as bacteria turned out to have DNA that is very different from bacterial DNA. However, new insight into molecular biology changed this view of life. Instead, the DNA is part of a protein-nucleic acid structure called the nucleoid. The cells of prokaryotes, on the other hand, lack this nuclear membrane. ![]() Animals, plants, protists and fungi are all eukaryotes because they all have a DNA-holding nuclear membrane within their cells. Eukaryotes are organisms whose cells have a nucleus - a sort of sack that holds the cell’s DNA. Eukaryotes represent four of the five Kingdoms (animals, plants, fungi and protists). The five Kingdoms were generally grouped into two categories called Eukarya and Prokarya. ![]() There eventually came to be five Kingdoms in all – Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, and Bacteria. But as new forms of life were discovered and our knowledge of life on Earth grew, new categories, called ‘Kingdoms,’ were added. When scientists first started to classify life, everything was designated as either an animal or a plant. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() See if the mouse or keyboard has power: Press the pairing button on your mouse or keyboard for 5-7 seconds, then let the button go.

While this also prevents the Seraphim from shooting in the first turn, this can be advantageous as if the Seraphim doesn't damage/destroy any enemy unit it is less likely that the enemy will pay attention oto her. Another way would be to use Awaken, a very powerful ability that, in exchange of 100 Energy and the loss of 75 HP, gives the Seraphim a buff of 100% accuracy and power (effectively doubling them) for the next two turns. Due to its power the Seraphim is often prioritized by enemy attacks, thus it's recommended that you upgrade its hp so that it can withstand at least a turn of attacks, or find some other way to protect it. ![]() The Seraphim has extremely low starting HP at 375, but makes up for it with its powerful kinetic rifle capable of dealing massive damage at extremely long ranges, even against enemy ships. It's unlocked after completing the battle at the Ryuvian's ships graveyard. The fact that despite it it's still able to fight equally to other customized Ryders shows the true might of the Holy Ryuvian Empire. Despite it, while it has a number of incredibly advanced systems, it's combat prowess is limited relative to other pieces of Lost Technology, the reason being that for the Ryuvian empire the Seraphim was merely designated as a scout and emergency machine (and it went 2000 years without maintenance). A model dating from the golden times of the Holy Ryuvian Empire, it's a piece of Lost Technology. ![]() |
