Re: Anyone still using 3dsmax 2009?
I'm still using Max 2012. All further versions have no improvements for game art related stuff afaik. Far more scripts and plugins work for 2012 and under than the newer versions. I do use some of the graphite tools but only as hotkeys instead of having the entire ribbon destroying my screenspace. In terms of UI… -
Re: Hopeless/loss
So we are approximately in same situation right now. This give me some morale so to speak :D I put a goal for myself today, after reading all these. My aim was to completely renovate my 3 year old portfolio with six different 3D characters, all rendered real time and which I could present to people without doubting that I… -

Re: Apprenticeships/job in London
Sorry, I completely disagree. I was working QA for ages and worked on my folio in my free time - now I'm freelancing, (its tough because the last thing you want to do when you get home is look at another screen after spending 8 hours or more in front of one) but if you want work in the industry badly enough, you'll do it.… -

Re: Attempting to produce a student short within Unreal 4; we need your advices !
I wouldn't underestimate the time and energy needed for a crowdfunding campaign. Sure, a big part of that will go into your project anyway, but you'll basically have to prepare a pitch in a time when you probably should concentrate on university and big parts of your project aren't necessarily ready for presentation yet,… -
Re: Sketchbook: Tony Sladky
After a summer of shameful procrastination and projects started without being finished, I feel like I should at least post some of what I've been working on: First, an old LeMat Revolver WIP. My first attempt at modeling a weapon: http://www.tonysladky.com/2011/05/23/lemat-revolver-process/ Next, the progress I've made on… -
Re: Question for Character Artists
THE MANTRA for freelance... Good and fast isn't cheap Cheap and good isn't fast Fast and cheap isn't good Or something to that effect. As for the original question, the character without the head I'd say 4-6 weeks factoring in feedback loops, for the head/hair/beard etc... 2-4 weeks depending on complexity and if it needs… -
Re: What scripts/plugins have you bought?
When I was freelancing plugins became very important in fleshing out the tool set that I felt were missing in the native program and specifically reducing production time in repetitive tasks. I had to use 3D Max so I ended up buying: - XrayUnwrap 2.0 - for better hard surface & organic unwrapping control, I had a lot of… -
Re: Do Mermaids Have Bellybuttons??
Heyyoooooo! I'm back! and freshly unemployed thanks to the financial mess that Rhythm is in! So what better time to update this thread!
