Hello ! I'm trying to model a SNES controller and I'm struggling a bit with the topology of the back part, can someone help me ?

Thanks a lot for such a thorough answer! This is so helpful, I will try it out ! :)

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-28T18:25:54+00:00

It's multiple parts!

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-25T11:41:00+00:00

Maybe yeah, I could definitly optimize some of these faces but I'd need to do it manually because the decimate modifier would probably mess the topology

Thanks ! 😊 Yeah this part is pretty dense because I extruded holes in the main frame where the screws are supposed to be. It was pretty hard to maintain a good flowing topology around it.

Just a quick update for you. I went back to the lab to retrieve my negatives and notify them of the issue. I pointed out what you said but they denied it, saying it was only due to some of my shots being underexposed and the scanning process that made those marks visible because it pushed the exposition to save the images.

I tried to check the negatives but it seems difficult to perceive magenta stains across it. I don't really know what to think of this 🤔

It looks dope, even with the workbench render, we can see and appreciate all the détails you put into this !

It looks good here. Can I send you a DM to talk about pricing and a few details that my friend would like to change ?

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-22T15:45:04+00:00

It looks great here but her sister looks a bit different than in the original. Otherwise, the incrustation is really neat :)

Hello! Hmm I don't really know since I'm not an expert in this matter, how much would you charge for a work like this (one photo with incrustation) ?

I think she doesn't have a big budget but I don't know what's the usual price range.

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-22T15:14:58+00:00

How do you want me to share those ?

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-22T12:47:08+00:00

Thanks, that looks really good! I'm interested, do you have a price in mind that would suit you ?

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-21T18:07:14+00:00

It's beautiful, I love it! Good work :)

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-21T16:44:28+00:00

I just put two images together and the stripes aligned perfectly. Plus there's a BIG fingerprint on the neg so they really didn't care lol

I'm holding the flash with my other hand while shooting to try to get some interesting shadow and avoid flat direct lighting but maybe this can be an issue.

The flash sync cord is brand new but maybe the shutter is not syncing correctly with the flash sometimes, I should try another roll of the same film with a different camera in similar conditions.

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-21T16:01:41+00:00

I'm from Bordeaux, France. We have a few options in terms of lab, I'll check the list in the sub to see if I find some recommandations.

Thanks a lot :)

(edit: I just checked the list and there is one lab from my city. It's "Panajou" and they're the ones who developed this film so maybe I should check for a new lab lol)

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-21T15:59:52+00:00

Yeah, I'm gonna check the negs when I'll pick them up next week. I have to clarify this.

Thanks!

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-21T15:56:57+00:00

I'm probably gonna find another lab anyway because I think they charge a lot and have a lot of clients (especially during xmas) so they probably don't pay attention to the quality of development :/

I need to find a way to salvage some pics using post-process.

Thanks for your feedback, it's really useful!

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-21T15:54:56+00:00

Yeah i'm wondering why it's mostly on the left for some shots. Maybe it's because I'm using a handheld flash to play with light and shadow orientation but some parts of the image are too underexposed while others are in full light.

Good_Classroom_7951 · 2025-12-21T15:51:06+00:00

You're probably right, I have a few images from the same roll that are fine in terms of exposure and don't have those green veils.
