What he meant is, the more you learn the more you realise there isnt one way to achieve certain things, since there's so many different materials. If you go ahead and exclusively learn with these tutorials only, instead of studying materials and coming out with ways to do things yourself, you'll never get better. Problems… -

Re: Sketchbook: Havok
Hmm. Well, I suppose first I'll just say this. A drawing tablet is not a pencil, and using it as such won't help you improve very much. Secondly, I recommend getting to know your brushes. The basic round brush has an infinite number of possibilities if you use it right, but I'd definately scope out the presets and learn… -

Re: We should not get paid for making games, it's art after all...
Look you're not wrong, and I'm not saying it's ok, it's something I just expect because as far as i know this is the accepted reality. I remember articles and people suggesting getting into game dev or CG is the kind of work you get into while you're young, cause you'll work long hours, more than likely travel and have to… -
Re: Crunch/Overtime
What do your studios do for crunch/overtime? Do you normally death march? Do you have 'scheduled crunch' where you schedule for a week every few a year or so out? When you crunch, are you required to stay or can you go when you finish your stuff or don't have something to do? We've certainly had our share of death marches,…
