Im super frustrated with my current project, so I figure it was time to start something different. So I haven;t really done a full environment, just more or less props. I really haven't finished anything to completion, so that what the goal is for this. I am sure that my break down is not optimal, but here we are. So I…
My two cents as someone who just finished a degree in Architecture and was enrolled on Animation Mentor right up until the last minute when I had a change of heart (and lack of funds!) and dropped out. My advice is this. Follow your heart. Dont think about job opportunities, don't think about how much time you may need to…

Ok Nitewalkr... let me clear it up for you. Absolute crap. 2D Art is all over gaming still. Concept Art... Texturing... Flash Games... also, ever visited the App Store? Not necessarily true. Firstly, I know a lot of tattoo artists who couldn't put a portfolio worth shit together. Just because they draw on people's skin,…

Quick background on me so you know where I have been and my experience: 17 years working in games and Discovery Channel documentary work. 10 years as 3D instructor- trained over 100 students worldwide in Denmark,…
Read your post. Then I read this: "Networking: None really." To quote Adam Savage, "Well there's your problem!" It made your entire rant seem for nothing. I know that's not the case, but I'm a huge believer in networking being something thats key for a lot of people to land jobs. I haven't gotten a single one of the jobs…
1. Build your own desktop. 2. Mid range GPUs are fine, newer is better because they are more likely to be supported by newer APIs like DX12.
