A lot of students simply don't know to post their work on places like polycount and this builds that connection… -

Re: Smooth group import plugin for Zbrush
@AlbertS : but that's the thing though : Zbrush doesn't have any way to store or display hard or smooth eges since *everything* is hard facetted in it.

Re: Portfolio review - losing interest in 3d
Meloncov covered a good bit of it for industry realities, so I'll respond to your last paragraph. I personally think the best advice anyone can give you is to take a step back and clear your head.
