Not sure if this has been posted here. He explains himself here and apologizes for his harsh one liner. http://www.gametrailers.com/side-mission/7458/the-indie-dev-who-claimed-modern-japanese-games-just-suck-explains-himself I do not follow him regularly and I have seen some questionable commentary from his side. Abuse is…
You have some good stuff in the portfolio overall. Here's a couple of general things though: - You could push the presentation a bit on most pieces. A lot of them are the regular basic sculpting pose without any pedestal or anything. Take the time to present things well. Also, that pedestal on the second 3DPrinting (the…
Epic while you may say is a one trick pony as per their games Gears of War and Unreal I don't think this is true, I believe there is a clear reason behind this. Gears seems imo to have been used to test out their new tech, it had been in development for quite some time and I believe I read at some point that a geforce 7…
Hello, I'm new to UScript and a friend of mine pointed me to a tutorial on the UDN that shows how to get the mouse cursor to show up and interact with a level in UDK. I'm slowly going through this tutorial, but I seem to be having a couple of issues. I'm getting 3 errors that I'm not sure how to fix. I don't want to open…
Hmm, i really don't want to over-sell my abilities, I really want to fit into an entry position and without any pressure from misplaced expectations so i think i should go through and re-evaluate how this is presented. I initially wanted to be ONLY a texture artist, thus using the models, but i don't see any positions for…
...At building PCs, but not quite so much at art. :poly142: I've been stuck with an [ame="https://www.amazon.com/R503U-RH21-Laptop-Computer-Memory-Windows/dp/B009AF6DHU#productDetails"]old Asus laptop[/ame] (maybe not that exact model, but the same specs) + this silly pink TV monitor with one pixel out for the past few…

We just launched version 0.93 and it is now polished enough that we are looking for feedback on usability and suggestions for features to add. Handplane baker is free and you can download it from gumroad…
Or how about the assasins creed franchise? UBI already said it started development on assasins creed 3 about 3 years ago, so long before brotherhood and revelations were released. so they had 2 assasins teams making the games. each one of about 2-300 people. should they just pile 600 people on each assassins game and then…
Interesting thread. To answer the posed questions first, Yes I consider myself an artist first and foremost because I do not limit myself to design documents and briefs. I do "work" for pay but I also work on my own for the personal satisfaction of creation/expression of my mood/emotion/perspective... so many things can go…
yea this industry is a pretty communal social type of job. I think everyone pretty much nailed it on the head, the badass artist who is super quite, never talks never goes for a drink after work and is pretty much forgettable while having amazing art skills will probably be passed over for promotion in favor of someone who…
