Re: Making sense of hard edges, uvs, normal maps and vertex counts
Short blanket statements without understanding the theory behind them is always a bad idea. Its why we have people posting "Just use 1 SG" in response to other users bake problems, often to the detriment of the user seeking help(IE: with a non synced system its terrible advice).

Re: Anatomy Critique
Hello ! First of all, I'm kinda new on this stuff too, so don't take all I will said for truth. In fact the best I can do is suggest you to find anatomy reference from art books or free resources on the net, there is a lot :) First impression is that the proportions seems rather nice, so good job on that. My second most… -
Re: Portfolio curation and content discussion
part of the problem is that the precedent set by the most influential developers seems to have poisoned the entire water supply in a way.

I felt this project was the one that needs the most critique considering its the first time in a while I'm using my own concept/idea. The idea is as follows, this will be a small diorama of a world in decay. However the Archway is the last gateway… -
Re: Early-Late 2000s CGI/Game textures
Hi there, I'd say you are thinking about this backwards. You are assuming things about the past based on what you know of game art and 3D software of today, which I suppose is an intuitive thing to do ... but this leads you to imagine things about previous tech and workflows that just don't apply at all. - First off,… -

Re: is 'texture painting' going to be rendered obsolete in the next while?
Nothing can replace taste like Earthquake said. You still need to make the base textures and believe it or not outsourcing does a horrible job at this idea of base textures. Teaching them to do this is like asking a mechanic to be a dentist. You end up getting junk back.... very basic stuff that just does not work well.…
