Re: Substance going subscription only
I don't doubt for the time being you guys are going to be doing some great things. I'm always rather impressed with your updates and the features y'all implement. What i don't trust, adobe. I don't trust the monopolization of tools like this. Same thing with autodesk. They own too much and now they just whirl around and… -
Re: Focusing on Blizzard's hand painted style?
If you learn the fundamentals of painting, you basically can paint anything. It's sort of like the difference between memorizing what two numbers add up to versus actually learning how to add two numbers together. If you understand how to paint light, it's fundamentally the same if you're painting a realistic brick texture… -
Re: FINISHED : Durga, Hindu Goddess
Well that wasn't quite that with Durga. I did a pass over all the textures as they felt a bit flat. A lot of dodge/burn mostly. Redid the blouse entirely. Also started getting a bit more serious about the lighting as I wanted to go ahead and put this on artstation. Tomorrow I'll start the chakram, then we'll have some… -
Re: Orca Helicopter
The tail needs to be angles downard to avoid blade collisions and/or main rotor assembly needs to be pushed upwards a bit. I just noticed that you don't have a tail rotor...And that tail doesn't look it could function as a NOTAR either. It's obviously not a coaxial design, so yeah...no way this design would ever fly… -
Re: Borderlands - Jakobs Weapon Locker
The color scheme overall feels a bit too desaturated and toned down (with the exception of the lamps that is) in my opinion. I don't think the green lights work well with the rest of the color scheme at all to be honest. I think it'd look good with some copper/brass parts as that is a pretty integral part to the more… -
Re: How to take my Character further (with images!)
You can subdivide in zbrush without it changing the shape. Turn off smooth and it'll add extra verts but the shape will be the same. An alternative is to just lengthen the sections that are getting cut off. The highpoly doesn't have to have sensible geometry so long as the normals and other maps bake well. For your current… -
Re: Should I get a degree in Game Art?
imo that's a good idea, as you will only be a better game artist with strong traditional skills! My two cents about school - I go to a private art college and I actually think I learned tons in the first two years. But maybe that's just cuz I knew absolutely nothing about game art when I first got in ("What's a wacom… -
Re: Anyone ever work a crappy job to focus on 3D?
I worked for a year and a half as a graphic designer too! It got stale, but we did a little 3D on the side sometimes, so as work experience it was useful. In the end I quit in order to build my portfolio (I thought I wasn't motivated enough to work on it after the job) after I saved for a bit and kept expenses to a… -
Re: dual monitor setups
I take it you sent this to EVGA only? I'm not sure the problem is with the card or the drivers EVGA has on thier site which looks like a mirror for the latest 8194 drivers from nvidia. In case they do change the drivers somehow try installing the drivers from Nvidia's site. I doubt anything will change since even the… -
Re: What did you think of Pirates ?? (( Spoilers )) ?
I would not rank this film with the first one. The first Pirates movie was an unexpected surprise with really solid acting and writing. The chemistry in the first film, the constant back-and-forth between the different characters, was near flawless. The pacing in the first film was also far better to the two sequels. That…
