Re: Shadow of the Colossus
Man i've been preaching about this game at VOLITION forever! This is the type of game that inspired me to get a job in the industry. It's so creative and unique, I feel so proud for these guys to be getting great reviews and attention... maybe it'll stir up the industry a bit. Hopfully it'll show studios they don't have to… -

Re: Boo! PR hyped designers get all the glory
I know what you mean, but it's just a result of a general lack of understanding amongst most gamers as to how exactly games are made. It hasn't been that long since those "game college" commercials with the kids making games by smashing PS2 buttons to tighten up the graphics. Some people really think that's how it is and… -
Re: texture tag!
Yeah, I think it helped a lot on the face, the body however ... not so much, as i am trying to map portions of his face and hands to texture the chub. However, the texture works sort've like a concept as well, gives me direction and some creativity on what this character's background might be, how to approach the… -
Re: Max 2010 Modeling tools - any early impressions?
For us the official decision comes from the our Art Director & Creative Director. It's not a done deal yet, they're still going over everything. We've had 2010 installed for a while (on sub) but we're holding off until this project wraps up in August. Its like a 60% chance we will upgrade. The biggest deal breaker so far… -

Re: Support Immigration even if you hate hispanics.
They're not South Americans. This country was founded on many ideas that no longer apply. Not really land of the free as much as other nations. Plus, the term freedom had a different meaning in those days. Kinda scary I didn't know about the green card soldiers. And worse we don't count the casualties. Lots of great… -
Re: Grad school online - yes, no, maybe?
This is just an opinion, but I wouldn't get any sort of creative degree via an online program. The most valuable aspect of getting an art or design degree is the critique process: in class, face-to-face and with your work on display along with everyone else's. You stand to learn so much more that way than you do learning… -
Re: Zuu Bots
These look awesome, really cool concepts here, I love the creativity. I will say that you might want to think about changing the face screen for each animal to make them look a bit different personality-wise. Another thing I noticed is that there are some areas that look more complex than the rest of the models, for…
