Need specific advice on getting into the industry
Hi polycounters, I would really appreciate some advice on what I should focus on in my development as an artist, and I know Polycount is one of the best places to get serious feedback. Here's the situation: I'm 27, working a full time office job, and trying to get into the games industry. My long term goal is to eventually… -
Final thoughts about this place
When I first known about this place I was young, and naive. I was fascinated with detail at how amazing the models looked like. I used draw everything as detailed as a picture, but soon enough I learned that people don't care about texture resolutions or polycounts. They care about the characters look and their story. Ask… -
SKAR - The Hammer Returns
Hello Polycounters! We at newly founded Blink Studios are making a game called SKAR and would like to share a few bits and pieces from the game as the development moves forward.

[WIP] Not-a-Glock — Game Ready Asset Optimization (feedback is appreciated)
Goal To improve my understanding of non-destructive game asset optimization and topology, I'm modeling a pistol with the intent to work effectively in VR. I like this as a stress test of my current skills, as guns are perhaps the most crucial asset in a visually appealing shooter. VR is notorious for it demanding… -
Re: Baking Issue (Again)
Why use a method you know will fix one issue but introduce 2 or 3 more, even worse issues? Why do it, when the extremely easy solutions have been spelled out for you? Why continue to give people advice that its a viable option, when you know the negatives, but yet fail to present the negatives when giving the advice? Like… -
Re: Need feedback on my Showreel
Hey, welcome to Polycount, as a fellow graduate I totally understand your uncertainty. You obviously enjoy prop work so I think you should definitely continue pursuing that. Personally, I am not a fan of a show reel that is just still images. In general, I feel modelling show reels aren't necessary but if you're going to… -
Re: What's the Best website for finding a mod or gamedev team?
@ Justin, I'm sure you could contact the people in the group if you were having trouble with something or wanted someone's opinion.
