I agree that while the dragons are extremely cool in what they do, it's really fun to watch them fly around and kill things... they're extremely weak. Usually by the time I catch up with a dragon, a mammoth or a collection of smaller wildlife has almost killed it alreaay. That said, I'm not too worried, the mod community…
drew out a Polycount UT3 CTF map today, collecting ideas etc, seeing where all the appropriate static meshes are that i can use. Its going to start life out as bsp so I can get the gameplay flow down. I'll be posting my process with occasional map downloads for testing and feedback. I may need some models if anyone is…
Thank you Rick I really enjoyed your article and I'm happy to see that this isn't a 'forgotten' issue... I think I vaguely recall the post that you referred to I agree that the Industry needs to get their collective heads out of their asses and realize that they are missing out on one of the biggest potential niches in the…
uhm... i cant say much until now, just wanted to support you! looks promising! as far as matcaps go, they have a great collection over at pixologic: http://www.pixologic.com/zbrush/downloadcenter/library/ also you need to be cautious with the edges of the cloth, they are rounded now, but edged on your lowpoly model, so…
There is a lot of free weapon models you can find on places like turbosquid (most are crap, but some are surprisingly good). I'd collect all the freebies you can. Then, if you've got UE4, you can download the Squad modding kit and get access to all of their weapons as well. Then, you can look at all these different models…
Adam Savage has many videos on Tested showing off the multiple replicas he has spent years making as accurate as possible, as well as his collection stunt pistols from the actual film and other people's replicas. In one video he visits a collector who has Deckard's actual hero prop and compares his best version with it.…
@Guapamolee you're in luck, there's tons of reference online on how to make 3D anime characters. You just need to know where to look: SketchFab, to inspect model wireframes and textures: https://sketchfab.com/xkungwork Collectible figures, for reference on how to sculpt something that was originally 2D only:…
I have quite big artbooks collection (over 130 books) and for me the best one about character art is definitely The Art of God of War Ascension - it has 2 chapters, one with 2d concept art and second with sculpts or/and game models. The only cons are that currently it's really hard to get any and even if you find it the…
Hi D_Choi, I'm excited to follow your progress on your real-time hair. I'm currently studying hair cards as well, I'm following Adam Skutt's general workflow. What about you? Perhaps we can share our best practices (: Here is my work in progress so far, still fiddling around with "what should my collection of hair cards…
As a few have said already, you can get a property manager. We've gone with century 21 in the past. They'll do inspections, collect payments, deal with any problems the tenants might have. All for a small cut of the monthly revenue. Also, you'll be able to specify what type of tenants you'd be happy with having. *I can get…
