Presents Dear Polycount Community, Wreckage is currently looking for skilled concept artists who will help us achieve the look and style for this sci-fi dinosaur shooter. Since this is my first time leading a game project I'm going to be realistic and start leading a team to help me make a demo for "Wreckage" to see if I…
It started when I responded to a similar post of his here in the freelance section back in April. Initially things went well as he hired me to do some textures (and a few snapped on low poly pieces) on a male and female versions of a character. I followed his guidelines and put in about 12 hours for the generous price of…
Loop stuff I don't fully get Not sure exactly what you mean by "support edge loops" but I guess its some split loop or loop shift thing- I get stuff easier with pictures. If its very specific but you do it all the time, maybe take the time to either write a script or ask people here in the tech talk section to either do it…
Darksiders styled art tends to be heavily diffuse-powered. Id say if you want to use a photo to get the gritty details, I'd get rid of a lot of the noise and focus on getting large, readable shapes. What your wall is missing is the "I'M A FUCKING WALL" that is present in darksiders walls. Your sculpt seems like it had very…
Just to be clear I wasn't making a case that oil played into the decision the US made, it's largely following Europe's lead... That doesn't mean Europe won't back out leaving the US holding the bag when things get hot or ugly... they seem to like to do that... BUT Europe sort of backed our war on terror. I was explaining…
I wrote an article about being a positive art lead in my blog late last year http://willkowach.blogspot.com/2011/12/stunted-growth-being-positive-art-lead.html But in terms of the qualities and characteristics of a lead role, some folks are different and I really think it's about their approach to solidifying that role as…
http://www.coroflot.com/cracked After working retail for a couple months here trying to save up some money, I have decided that I can't be waiting around any longer to try to get my career in art moving. As such, I decided what I love doing is concept art and 3D modeling. Not sure how many concept artists get to take their…
There are a couple routes you could go here. I agree with @EarthQuake , if you want a hope of getting a US/Canada visa, then an actual degree is going to be essential. it might be annoying and seem like a waste of 4 years if you feel you can teach yourself online, but them's be the breaks. I am a big fan of knowing the…
Hey! I like what you've got here; you have some cool ideas. Also, you are super productive pumping out these paintings so quickly! I have a couple of suggestions for you. 1. Double-check perspective in your environments. Some of the pieces you have here look a little off. You can always use perspective grids to help with…
Yes businesses are built to make money - but WE are not businesses. We as artists should feel at least partially responsible for the influence our work has on the greater culture. Especially considering the added influence that games in particular have on those still developing their own world-view. I would personally like…
