Re: Vokyo - Futuristic Courier
Some more work I did from last night. Worked on the exo-pack on his back. The concept was a bit vague in this area so I decided to flesh it oud and give it some small story purpose. It functions as a small easy to use physical enhancer for couriers so they can lift a bit more weight and tire less easily after long days of… -
Re: Sketchbook: Camille Meehan
I'm taking the Intro to Maya course at CGMA which involves modeling and animating a robot in Autodesk Maya. Usually that bot will look something like this when finally rendered. Image from the CGMA course page. While that's a super cute bot, it isn't my style so I decided to sketch out my own concept and model. David Mooy… -
Re: Portfolio curation and content discussion
The field isn't brutal, it's the massive mismanagement the games industry has been through. For instance I'd be perfectly happy staying as & working as a 3d artist if I were at a theoretical company that paid a fair & normal salary with regular raises, vacations and benefits that every other industry gets, and that didn't… -
Re: Retopology / high res / baking workflow for rookie? Bad Mesh + Many Softwares + Game Engines
No, that was something I made when I was first learning how to using sculpting tools in Zbrush. I doubt I still have that model. But I'll be making some similar animal models in the near future, which I'm really amped about. EDIT -- sorry, somehow I thought your questions were for somebody else. I am not sure what your… -
Re: DISCUSSION: Is game art enough for a videogame to be "timeless"?
I'm going to sidestep the issue of timelessness of games as a whole, and art's contribution to that, and focus specifically on the issue of timeless art in an environment where graphical capabilities are continually and rapidly increasing. I think the requirement for visuals to be timeless is that you can look back on it… -
Re: I'm not sure what to do now.
i will be brutally honesty here... looking at your work it seems you have not studied anatomy that much if at all. all of your works look like stylized, but to be semi-decent at stylized you need to be decent in anatomy first. the typical stylization in game art is simplification of realism and often with exaggeration. so… -
Re: Vertex color BlendMasked cgfx maya shader
Thanks for the feedback Jeff. I've completely synced the maya shader with the one in CE3 which means that the blend factor and blend falloff values used in maya will look exactly the same in CE3. Download link : https://dl.dropbox.com/u/53969153/Shaders/vertex_blend_03_colors_CE3.zip Thats weird because it working in all… -
Re: Interesting Talk on the Death Of Consoles
I think I may have a miscommunicated the term "tablet" what I mean by tablets are ipads and android tablets, not pen enabled tablet PCs (is that what you are talking about? are those still being made?). From the Applestore cheapest macbook air is starting at $999 the new ipad $499, Googles upcoming Nexus tablet is rumored… -
Re: [Portfolio] - Michael Barnes, 3d Artist
Cholden - Thanks for the feedback, I shall continue down the sculpting route. Would you suggest the speed sculpt route to produce lots of likeness sculpts or to focus on full body sculpts? I just checked out your sketchbook thread and dammmmmm! Your sketch a day's are amazing. I really want to improve my 2d painting but I… -
Re: Nearly 50% of GameStops profits come from pre-owned sales (College Paper)
While I do agree that something drastic (though not necessarily bad) may happen in the near future, I wouldn't expect a shift to purely on-line games. There's still a large group of people who don't appreciate MMO's (including me :poly142:) and there will always be a market for single-player games just like there is a…
