Re: Any fans of TF2 or Half-life on these boards?

Re: Modelling a Car as Environment Artist
Unless you're applying for a hard surface or vehicle artist position, which may/may not require several examples, a decent enough environment that shows that you have a good command of the pipeline should ideally be sufficient.
