Re: Resistence: Fall of Man
[ QUOTE ] I think the lack of shadows is what is killing it. Shadows in areas you would expect to see shadows and not just the harshly sharp shadows under players. It really helps games if artists bake some shadows into their textures. Some artists and AD's get fooled into thinking the defuse needs to be devoid of all… -
Re: Turret from Homeworld2
as Simon said, it could use a little more saturation. I also feel the wear you have on your edges is a little unnatural, kind of a videogamey generic white fade. the nuclear symbol clashes with homeworlds simplified aesthetic, and looks like an unnecessary detail out of place. take that all with a grain of salt, still a… -
Re: Student showreel
Some thoughts in no particular order: * Put your contact details at the very first page somewhere unobtrusive, minor gripe, * ("The Survivor" and "Cartoon Warrior") Skip the characters.

I'm kind of in the same boat: I started off thinking I wanted to be a 2D artist (an illustrator, in my case, not necessarily a concept artist), but then waffled between wanting to do that vs. going into 3D for videogames, on and off for years, never really getting anywhere with either. Recently I've doubled down on… -

Re: Put your money where your mouth is
It's an interesting read Ben and is most definitely sound advice for the most part. I do feel it could use a little 'optimization' though. It's just a little on the fat side. Also I think it's written slightly too much from your personal perspective with your experiences woven in there as If it were fact. For example I… -
Re: Help me remember this old awesome game!
