I don't know if I would put in those life drawings-- from my experience (unless you've got some really amazing ones) having those just relegates you to amateur/hobbyist territory because they're just studies. In fact I'd just get rid of your 2d section entirely until you have a stronger body of work there; right now it's…
Hey N4UJ, Thanks for the compliments, though they need plenty of tweaking at the moment :p For my workflow and the mirror stuff, I'm mostly working in Max using kitbash parts like curly fronds etcetera to whip up a collection of different shapes quickly. Here's an example with the leaves; use Path Deform modifiers in Max…
Here's my messy paintover. The wooden structural pieces won't necessarily be the same as the paintover, it's all very rough. I'll more than likely make the wall sections modular, and of equal size. Some goals: -Make multiple tileable materials, I was pretty slow last month but I have a better understanding of how to make…
Had a good year in 2017 i think. Positive: - Was offered 2 interviews for games companies in the UK - was offered an interview for an outsourcing company in Spain - Was offered 2 freelancing jobs - Had some paying work - Got to work on my portfolio a lot and did my longest project yet , 5 months. - Played with MIDI and…
I cant see anything better than Max for modeling (my opinion). As far as rigging and animation of course Maya is very powerful in this department no wonder its used so much. But Houdini...what can I say its such a beautiful software that I wish got more love and exposure because it is the most powerful overall in terms of…
It's fine - but has a few weird glitches that I recall annoying me when I last tried it (things like stuff importing back from Photoshop oddly). Overall it's a pretty robust package - but 3dcoat is generally better. It's link with Photoshop is good, it's easy to pull in textures and the development of it is still fairly…
You can find out how to configure your router on the manufacturer's website. They almost all have web interfaces so you can usually just go to http://192.168.1.0 or whatever your router's IP is, login and figure it out from there. You can find out your router's IP by going to start->run, type "cmd" and hit enter, this will…
Speaking as a multimedia designer and not as a game developer, I think some of these words of wisdom need a bit of tempering If it's *just* a game art portfolio site, yeah, the fancy stuff should take a backseat to content delivery. But dimissing Flash, animated graphics and similar tools in general would be throwing the…
thanks for the in depth code review- I know it is sluggish at some spots as in most cases it will do for me as long as it works. I will try to improve it with what you have written,- thx a lot for that I once had this idea of creating a website with maxscirp snippets where people could compose their own panels without…
[ QUOTE ] The answer here is to drop Vista. Vista is not good. Vista is like unto the "Windows ME" of yore. Roll back to XP, and enjoy improved performance in basically every app. [/ QUOTE ] ^^^^ What he said ^^^^^ Sooooo true, Vista IS the new Windows Millennium. Its a unnecessary resource hog, too much big corporate…
