As a person with 2 separate bachelors degrees (computer information science- buffalo state; and multimedia game design; UAT) and an associates degree (ecc buffalo ny), who graduated only to find the degrees were worthless, Im not a big fan of traditional college education. After my father died I received inheritance and…
Ways I have found to rack up "couple time" while still working on side projects. - Put your hobbies in the same room. My wife likes to make cards, do crafty things and watch horror movies. Putting her stuff in a separate part of the house makes her sad =( - Laptops make you mobile, you can move your ass out by the TV and…
[ QUOTE ] ... and no "Pak", not by giving cops guns. (that is another ignorat post) [/ QUOTE ] I apologize. Sorry Phil/Rick I was being silly, I was tryna take a stab Rick just for fun to tease him :P So I guess I should write a serious post now. In all seriousness, I don't really think this planet can support 6 billion…
I generally agree with both you and RyanB's point. We can't live in the past anymore. Having said that, I do think there was a warning the game industry should have taken serious, that relates to my point about risk. The PS2 era of making game art represented an equilibrium of tech and creativity. There was enough power…
Everyone visiting your portfolio and site isn't going to get a disclaimer "I'm just a young hobbyist, don't take the current quality of my work seriously because I can do better." Even still, thats a pretty lame disclaimer to have to say anywhere - especially if you're serious about making sweet art. it doesnt matter what…
It's an interesting read Ben and is most definitely sound advice for the most part. I do feel it could use a little 'optimization' though. It's just a little on the fat side. Also I think it's written slightly too much from your personal perspective with your experiences woven in there as If it were fact. For example I…
I had to read your posts and then translate them for everyone else. LOL Ok just stop... Did you seriously come here, create an account just to post of how it's ok to steal models and because you got called out from a fellow artist here? Seriously? Yep we don't need members like you... Buh Bye... Go back to DA...
So three questions I gotta know about this scene, cuz it is seriously probably the coolest thing I have ever seen on Polycount! 1. How many different unique textures do you have for this guy? 2. What resolution is your largest texture in the scene and what's it on? 3. How long did this take you? Cuz seriously holy hell man…
I really think that the article you read is just as fake as McMahon's death; the flowers, the memorial, the fan with his 3 year-old on his shoulders are all staged or don't exist at all for the sake of entertainment. Sure some people take this stuff seriously, but people also take shows like Lost seriously. I don't think…
Seriously? Crushed? So for this you need an iPad (between $500 - $700) and an AppleTV ($100). So that's $600 bare minimum, for a video game solution that doesn't include any buttons, and doesn't have any dedicated hardware for the game's themselves. Not to mention that any game that you want to play multiplayer will cost…
