Re: I hate myself need help
What you would need is an positive LMIA (Labor market impact assessment). The LMIA process involves the company proving the they couldn't find a local (permanent resident/citizen) for the role. The employer has to apply for this and it is usually difficult to get a positive LMIA for more entry level - junior roles. If you… -
Re: Modeling a collapsed dome
Probably cut a hemisphere into 4 pieces, making 2 modules. One piece that tiles around 3 times and one unique piece that contains the damage. It should be fairly easy if you leave the objects pivot in the center, when you import your slice all you would have to do is copy and rotate it. I would start with a sphere, which… -
Re: How can I model this ruin?
Ok thanks for the links Eric. I saw this link https://gamesartist.co.uk/dest-build-kit-roman-ageev/ Did he make the broken wall in ZBrush, then retopologize it in Maya to create one big mesh and then applied his tile texture? -
Re: Normal map weired lines after baking
If there is no highpoly, what are you baking the normal map from - and why? Imo your documentation of the issue leaves could be better.

I'm a student artist and I am interested in applying for a job at your studio. Sorry to message you directly, but if you have time I'd like to ask what sort of… -

Re: Living where the jobs are?
Again, thanks for the responses. I have family living in LA and I visit pretty often so that's one of the reasons I was trying to figure out whether or not walking into the office was a good idea or not. Now in terms of applying to jobs, I've read articles talking about being proactive, and looking up names of the HR reps… -
Re: [Student] - how much do I suck?
When you apply for a job in art, you are not competing against the other applicants. Your work is being compared to that of current employees. It either has to be on the same level of quality as the work being produced at the studio, or has to show the potential to get there. Confidence is important, but if you cant…
