yo! ya can google out some decent modeling references/concepts,but can someone please tell me where I can find the MOST ACCURATE references,i need th complete a demoreel and get me job lol:poly142:
The MOST ACCURATE references for environments? As in made-up environments? I'm not too sure if you'll find that sorta stuff... architecture/building plans? I'm sure you can find those... but to be honest you need to be able to look at a piece of concept and work out how it should be in 3D space anyway.
So basically, you can't be bothered to search yourself? Reference is NOT hard to find, if you spend more than 5 minutes at it. Gathering reference is one of the most important aspects of building an asset. It makes everything go smoother.
Stop being lazy and look for reference. If it's an extremely difficult piece to find reference on, then ask.
Start a reference folder. I have a folder that has about 100 sub folders in it. I just search google images for anything I might be interested in modeling. Conceptart.org, conceptroot.com and many more like these sites r good for inspiration. Just don't rip people's art off without permission, but they are good for reference. If u end up collecting a lot I recommend keeping it organized. It helps me

Most accurate references are where the wild things are.
