Good luck. Starting with no experience, unless your a super star, is more like 30k. At least over here on the East Coast. 50-70 is mid to senior. At 70-80 your tapped out unless you're a tech artist, Art Director or making title bonus's.
by the sound of it your teacher neither inspires much confidence nor does seem to be really teaching all that effectively... but that's just the impression i'm getting first off, the lizard-riding concepts: i like the original color one the best, but i think that's because it's the most 'together' and conceptually…
I will absolutely look into doing clear-coat when I try to optimize this down. Thanks for the replies! I am back with an update. I spent most of yesterday refactoring my previous result, with a refocus on pushing PBR and trusting it over curating a certain look. I also dug an old reflector out of the garage and studied it,…

I completely redesigned the window opening model from scratch, so now it doesn't look as distorted as the first prototype, which I'll post below for comparison. When it comes to creating stylized textures, I chose to make them in Material Maker rather than Blender. As a beginner, Blender feels a bit too complicated for…

This challenge is a way for real-time 3D artists to test their skills and create a piece of work based on concepts provided. It's open to those of all skill levels and we do our best to provide meaningful feedback along…
In the end, I received the best grade and work since three years as a professional carpenter. I'm really happy with how the table turned out, and I even received a few promotions from the devs of Dishonored 2, which was a great honor. So enjoy the following pictures
