Thanks for sharing. Your Mari tutorials are helpful too. I'm actually watching Justin Holt's Gnomon tutorials now. Awesome to know he was one of your mentors. Quick Mari process question, how did you do your spec and gloss channels. Did you start by duplicating spec channel, renamed it, and add something like a highpass…
If you can address those two areas, even just having a toggle between normal projection painting with symmetry (mudbox, 3d coat, modo..ect) and the traditional approach Mari takes... as well as multi-channel painting, then Mari would start to look very appealing. The New Mari UI scheme shown during the Modo event was a…
This is the best kind of advice and the one I use to most when talking to people. I've always been a believer of understanding and learning some of the artistic foundation skills, together with a 3D software, as (imo) the software will only be as good as the person operating it. One of the main things to remember is that…
While I do agree with this, it must be said that this isn't easy. When we've often talked about the kind of staff we think should work at these schools we have images in our heads of the very people who work in the industry. Probably some guy we get along with and has years of experience to turn into valuable wisdom for…
First you had to get red, green, and blue pigments. I usually used grass or local berries found around my yard. During the winter it had to be blood. So for something like a barn, you'd shove some toothpicks and blood into your floppy disc drive and MS Paint would do the rest. A lot of texture artists went to jail after…
Hey Polycount! It's been a while since I posted on here - the last project I worked on was a KOTOR Star Wars apartment that I abandoned after having burned out on 3D. However, I'm back at the poly-grind now, and currently studying my Masters to refine my skills and to get me back into the flow of things. I actually meant…

Wow, thanks for the feedback guys. @doeseph - Yeah the multiple iterations I think was a big contributer to how odd she looks. I was torn between so many variations, I just muddled them all together. I'm going to aim for a specific style and try and hit it. @Scyfon - I would agree about the ankles, I'll fix em.…
It's not up to the "industry 3" to innovate, they are console developers first and foremost. The metroidvania genre has been done and improved on ever since super metroid, mario 64 was a great game when it came out, but we've had many fantastic 3d platformers since then, including psychonauts. People are also quick to hate…
