Minor update on the fins and shells furballs. It's likely the last one before I wrap up the hair cards system because I'm getting way too sidetracked. They're so fun! I really like the look of the fur, it's so fluffy I want to pet it. I managed to further improve their look, but they still have the obvious fins and shells…
Hey guys, I've been lurking the polycount boards since 2001, trying to gather more information than make myself look stupid. I'm finally out of High School and am really looking for advice on the next step in being a successful CG artist. I'm currently self taught, and have been doing 3D for a couple years on and off. I…
I don't know enough about the persons skill set or the job he/she was looking to jump into, to say it was a natural transition that was bricked by the company, even if I want to strongly sympathize with that point of view.

Speculators betting on movie success http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/10317873.stm Now I can't help given our global income exceeding the movie…
Maths wise, the low end is really the only thing that matters for diffuse . ( And metallics shouldn't ever be fully saturated ) sooo.. I'd make my own node Anyway.. Assuming this node isn't crap... If black looks wrong in game and you don't want to eyeball it, you need a rendering pipeline that can be set up properly -and…
wellll.. you could still get around that WMP 10 verification. You also only needed to set Windows update to manual download, and not choose the Windows verification downloads. I neither confirm nor deny my innocence with the above. I can say I have a full Windows 7 Ultimate box retail here that I got for the M$ discount…
I think first and foremost you should check http://www.gamedevmap.com/ to see what studios are around you and if there are studios near you, check your work and see if that's a place you'd wanna work for.
