Re: super epic art tests
There are three main reasons I can think of why they don't send out rejection letters. 1) They don't want to close doors they might want to open later. 2) The unwritten rule of "don't call us, we'll call you" IF we have work for you, not IF we plan on rejecting you. 3) They have a lot of people they're dealing with at all… -

Re: Rock man Zero
too true, too true. I'm a student myself going for my BA in game art design and I can tell you that in the 3 years I've been there, I've learned a lot... of the basics. Since getting here on polycount and checking out tutorials outside of class I've furthered my knowledge more here in a couple weeks that I usually do all… -
Re: Creating ropes in maya?
True. This is one of those things that are better off faked than accurate. Here's an attempt at it (in Blender :( but I'm sure you can translate the steps to Maya), still not fine tuned though. It's actually two separate strips crisscrossing on top of each other. I could adjust the edges so they weave over each other in… -

Re: How do maek modal?
That's some really great work there. My only point of critique is the showcasing. You can use some "Radial Blur" to suggest some movement in your scene. I've written a small tutorial for you on how to achieve this. 1) Start up "PhotoShop". 2) Click the left button of your mouse on the word "File" on the top left side of… -
Re: Normal Mapping Alignment
In order, here is what I did: 1. Rebuilt the highpoly model. 2. Made a normal map from the high poly model. This got rid of the black mark. I'm still not pleased with it. I'm not using sub-d on the highpoly model because whenever I turn it on it completely crushes my model. 3. Rendered with the normal map and everything… -
Re: Backstreet Environment - C&C for portfolio piece.
looking good. A few crits: 1. There seems to be a mix of hand painted and photoreferenced textures. The bricks and whatnot look like its a direct photo texture where things like your pipes and props look very hand painted. You might look for some consistancy there. 2. I think the decal of the grafitti would work well, but… -
Re: Get a move on!
Fuse: I was never paid. So according to contract, this work is mine. Which is better then money for me atm. After a few weeks of quiet time I asked brc what was happening. He basically said the idea is being scrapped while he continues to code, and will approach something similar again later. I couldn't just leave these… -
