Re: How Many AAA Character Artist Positions Are There in our Industry?
I also agree with this. People get magnetized by the shiny bright objects of the huge studios when they are forgoing thousands of other character art jobs that could be just as fulfilling pay wise, less stress, hours, etc. I'm actually trying to get out of AAA game work as I get paid pretty mediocre and I've been worked to… -

Re: Building a Game - Pirate/Lost Civilization Adventure
