Re: Successful 3D artist without drawing skill?
This is a bit of an odd question really. Let's say that the majority says "no". Then what are you going to do - not even try to see if gaining solid drawing skills would help you ? There is an assumption going on about things like artistic anatomy being possible to be learned just fine directly in 3D, especially since… -
Re: What's your work flow?
Yeah Chilliskinner! hehehe! Yeah Anuxinamoon I do that as well sometimes. Sometimes I get a really complex mesh and I prefer to break it up and lay it in flat planes. I enjoy unwrapping as well. Something cool about the texture layout and how it wraps around the 3D model in creative ways. I'm still getting better and… -
Re: Need advice: building level design / lighting artist portfolio from scratch.
The way to get into level design as a profession is to just get right in there and do a lot of level design. Share your levels with others, get critique, and get exposure. We have some resources here http://wiki.polycount.net/CategoryLevelDesign Usually level designers are managed by the design department in a studio, not… -

Re: concept artist vs. comic-book artist
As a concept artist, I can tell you to listen to Per. Once you're good enough to be a pro in any artistic area the actual mechanics of your job aren't generally going to be the hard part. For a concept artist, it's gonna be getting ideas that are original, practical within your technical limitations, that look good and fit… -
Re: portfolio review
I replied to the thread you made in GD and just saw this so I'll copy what I posted there. Some of what I said echoes what others here have already said but that's ok ;) If your goal is to find a job as hard surface/environment artist, straight up - focus on that. Show me more assets and environments at the quality of your… -
Re: Film Noir Scene (UDK)
Out of the two designs i prefer the second one, i feel like this could have a sort of alan wake style to it in a noir theme a man/woman just trying to find the answers he/she is looking for. What these answers are i dont know? But i just like the way it ends at the well, maybe he leavers up the bucket from the well when… -
Re: My first Female!
K, I've got a week left, maybe plus a couple days. I'm finding it difficult to retopologize the mesh for game rez (9-10,000 tris), for a couple reasons: 1) the retopo tool in ZB doesn't maintain UVs, so I've found that I'm retopologizing a little too late. Instead I'll have to go delete edges and move verts manually in… -
