I have a degree but I don't think it helped. They said they liked me because of my unity / udk experience so best advice is get to know these programs :)
For our Unity game we are using https://www.assembla.com/home for repository with TortoiseSVN. It is not the perfect solution, but it works. A lot better than dropbox copy paste latest files :)
A lot of exciting things have happened with software, just not the main 3d packages. Substance Designer, Substance Painter, UE4, Unity, Marmoset, Houdini, photogrammetry in general, etc.
when someone has done it with unity for android (as beeing talked about in another thread just recently) this can easily be compiled for iphone as well, just has to be done ;)
Just search for ripped 3d models, i am sure Albion online also has a few on sketchfab and other sources. Also Albion online is Unity based, so chances are you might be able to 3d rip content for yourself :)
Curious if you're a traditional artist transitioning or dabbling in digital art? was browsing this board's new entries amongst those requesting critique earlier and noticed a side profile among your images (now missing?) where a 'painterly' style/depiction applied too these studies, for me at least was quite noticeable…
