Re: Hard Stuff (Maya & ZBrush)
You definitely have some skill and no one can deny that you arent a decent modeller but there are some serious issues that you would need to address, IMHO, before you ever considered including them in your portfolio. * Your edges are extremely sharp on your meshes (especially the laptop) to the point where having a normal… -
Re: Is it worth normal-mapping smaller props?
I think there is a pretty common misconception that if its a simple prop, its easier to do a painted bumpmap. However, if its simple, it shouldn't take very long at all to make a quick HP and do a bake, which will be much higher quality and more accurate than a painted bump ever could be(in most cases atleast). When you do… -
Re: Let He who cast the first stone
This is probably gonna end up as a rant but whatever. She showed her portfolio and I was like okay there's some decent stuff in there but she should have noticed from the very beginning that the game industry was not meant for her. I have no clue what the syllabus at AI is but there's gotta be some life drawing in there or… -
Re: On Why too much help stunts your growth
Ror that's awesome... I see myself doing the same thing with my daughter when she's a little older... I can't thank her enough for opening my eyes to the world around me the least I can do is give that back to her, and well... if it gets a laugh while driving the point home, all the better!

Re: Modeling/Rigging Hands
Fingers are a snap to rig they're just like elbows and knees, the thumb can be a little problematic and wrists are a pain in the ass but twist bones help that out a lot.

Re: Overlaying / Mixing normal maps
Haha well, if your baker and renderer are pretty much the same, and the difference between synced and pretty much the same is too small to actually notice in the final product, why would you put in extra effort? I've always been a huge proponent of using a synced pipeline, because it generally makes a huge difference in…
