Re: Need some feedback on a character
Thank you ever so much for the info, it would see you hit the nail on the head with regards to me not having a targeted platform, gee whiz that was stupid. Okay, I am going to take a bit of time to re unwrap the head and place the hair, her eyebrows and eyelid hair on a seperate map to increase performance, that seems like… -
Re: Mask_Salesman's 'Last of Us' Inspired Sumd00d & Tuts!
Heh Thanks guys glad to hear their actually useful haha! El Scorcho that sounds hard lool, perhaps using curves or a gradient map on an AO to create a selection for them? I dunno o_0? Scythe I'd probably just be repeating google for the most part lol but I can go over some of the finer tricks within UDK in a later one of… -
Re: The downward slope for artists salaries.
I completely agree. Personally I see the industry as reverting back to what should be normal as the publishers more or less step out of the way. They had a lot of money and did some great things but they also set the bar for "success" really high. Making a few million over the cost of development was a failure in some… -
Re: A gameart desktop
I will just answer each question and hopefully guide you in the right direction. Which OS would be best for this? Windows 7 or 8? Huge bonus if there is a sleep mode like windows 7 for inactive periods. I hate Windows 8 interface for desktops, it takes more steps to do nearly every basic function. Moving around files and… -
Re: Softimage 2011 is now available for FREE for students
Nitewalkr... I highly recommend Digital Tutors. I must admit I haven't seen their XSI stuff but I used them when I was starting out with Max and Maya and their course are amazing. I gotta be honest their new stuff hasn't been as good, but I bought a couple of their DVD's back before they offered the subscription model and… -

Re: Possible Collab? Evolution!
I didn't want to consume the entire page with drawings so here's a link to a slideshow. It's not all of my drawings, and unfortunately I've only actually drawn on paper a fraction of what's in my head. Most of this stuff is inspired from weird dreams. You should be able to right click and "view" the images to be able to… -
Re: RL Photoshop Tutorial
Yeah man, from my experience make sure YOU save very often. It's incredibly embarrasing to have photoshop crash on you and have to start over in front of everyone because you didn't save. Also, I just taught some lectures on PS - I went over some very basic things that would be useful: Shortcuts + hotkeys How to PROPERLY… -
Re: Student portfolio help & advice
Just woke up. Bluntness incoming. - Your character isn't even baked and LP. Don't show it (though you shouldn't anyway because environment artist). - "Concepts" is spelled incorrectly on your environment concept piece-- and that's clearly basic photo-bashing. I wouldn't show that. - 2D art doesn't need to be there, it just… -
Re: In-GamePort Zone Test for GameLoft
oh, now the images r better to see... Dunno if its because u changed their alignment or if it was a browser error :P Well, nevertheless. @Ged - actually those limitations are even lower that what could be done. That is dated from the times of iphone 1 i guess. The iPhone memory is large. Even on past gen (iphone 2 and 3)…
