Re: Generic male
Yeah, go with 8 if you're making a superhero. I think the current height is fine though depending on what you're doing. 7 heads would probably be an ideal person, around 6 (this guy seems to be about 6 or 6 1/2) would be about normal maybe a little short. Nothing wrong with that. The arms are definitely long. if you cut… -
Re: Maya to Isometric - Check my work?
Did a little maxscript for both dimetric and isometric "squashed" (30° and 35.264) from OP mel script. Then adjusting the camera FOV seems to be the easiest way to get the sprite size you want. It's kinda tricky to get the perfect 2.1 tiled shape tho.--isometric--settings for 118*60 sprites( --create cam myCam = Freecamera… -
Re: Negative feedback
Yep, and the person giving the crit needs to be able to deal with having their critique rejected just like the original poster has to deal with their art being rejected. A person who gets all butt-hurt over their critique being ignored is just as snobbish as the person who gets all butt-hurt over getting a critique. It's… -
Re: Couple of big questions
To be perfectly honest, I almost replied to MagicSugar about that comment, but decided against it. There's a lot of perceived ageism in this industry. However, this isn't usually down to a numerical factor e.g. you're 28, so there's no way you could possibly handle the duties of an entry-level artist. When most people talk… -
Re: [Portfolio] Sean "NyneDown" Smith, Character Artist
I'd say it looks like you know what you are doing, just need to kick it up a notch. 1. Finish some more characters all the way to low poly in engine, no more Zbrush busts. 2. Larger images grabbed from Marmoset or UDK. 3. Rig em all and get them into some more dynamic poses. 4. Need more polished texture work. EDIT2: Seems… -
Re: What made you become an indie? And if you didn't yet, why not?
My recommendation would be to stay away from existing IPs as much as possible. IP license holders are usually in the difficult place of sending out cease and desists to every derivative project they hear about (even ones they like), because not doing so could set a dangerous legal precedent for them. What's more, you may… -
Re: Zeitgeist: Addendum
Thanks for the link Adam, I actually found that one to be more... intellectual. I mean of course you always watch these videos with a big handful of salt, but the fact still remains that it does get you thinking, and may introduce new ideas or opinions that hopefully sparks your interests into learning more. The whole part… -
Re: Fighting scene need feedback
Hexify (and anyone else that commented) did a great job. Just thought I'd throw a few other things your way. I do want to echo the camera though, that's important to fix up, perhaps the most important thing that you want to fix. Other than that: - The punch at frame 12 needs some follow through. It stops abruptly which… -
Re: Speaking of Crunch. A question.
I spend slow time learning new tools & techniques. Or editing our help docs. Or demoing new engine features. Or taking some of the workload off another artist. There's always something constructive to do. Definitely can't bank slow hours against crunch ones. Although I have seen an incentive that kinda worked... crunch… -
Re: SG127 Tank
It's not that you grabbed actual reference. It's the fact that the metals aren't appropriate for the tank. Look at the reference I sent you. That metal is not the same metal you used on the tank itself. Look at the grunge and how inappropriate it is. No tank looks like it's been constructed from the same materials as a…
