Isn't the main selling point of IPS panels not so much color accuracy (which you should be able to achieve with a good quality, properly calibrated TN panel), but rather consistent contrast/color regardless of viewing angle (a lack of color shifting)?

Being a 3d game artist without technical know-how is always a little bit strange. In a game studio you're not just making art. You're making art that's going to run in real-time for a game.

Random thoughts Fur: I'm still coming to terms with the fur painting and I keep going back to the reference images I've collected from GW2. The problem I'm running into is that it seems that the fur is done differently on different models. I'm guessing there could be a number of reasons behind this - differences in texel…

Since the tech used shadow casting geometry that was used for dynamic lights, if the level was modified…
This looks really top notch! Really nice to see level headed approach to 3D software, no right click is the new left click Blenderisms or Zbrushisms, which is really relaxing thought, plain pragmatic approach. Didn't read all the comments, but here are some thoughts based on watching OP video; 1. Is there any kind of…

The neon glow of city streets shimmered on the slick pavement of District 43. Ashe walked briskly through weaves of dark side-alleys as the rain drizzled on around her.
