Re: 33 yo. Too late? Best learning path?
Echoing the same sentiment. I'm 35, and have been working in the industry since I was 21. This is not a very great industry to be in for someone wanting a modicum of stability. YES there are small pockets of stability to be found in this industry, but they are the rare exception and not the norm. Read this:… -
Re: Final Major Project Dystopian Slums [CE3]
Hey, I think you've managed to produce a very lively feeling slum city! I loved the clothes, monorail, posters/holograms, graffiti and litter. All these together convey the highly populated but decayed favela atmosphere really nicely. Lighting is proper moody as well! The sheer amount of ships flying overhead felt too much… -
Re: Volcanic activity in Yellowstone rising, along with other volcanoes
You overstate American arrogance and under estimate the impact a super volcano would have on the world... If it was located in Europe I would still be worried about my survival in the US. The hotspot in yellowstone extends nearly halfway to the center of the earth, or so they suspect... It would make the recent Icelandic… -
Re: Couple of big questions
25 and gonna take 3 yr program, so you'll be close to turning 30 and apply for an ENTRY LEVEL position??? My opinion for your age group is the self-study path. If you can't learn from a $35, $15, $6 or free video tutorial, a career as a game artist is probably not optimal for you. I don't mean to insult. Think about it,… -
Re: Splash Damage art test, too
I'll try to get a paintover done a little later, for now just think of it like this: Every time you have an intersection, you're forcing there to be an ugly, hard-edged pixelated seam. Every time you merge two meshes together into one chunk, you have the opportunity to have a nice, clean and seamless result. This goes a… -
Re: University of Hertfordshire (BA & MA Games Art, 2D & 3D Animation & VFX, Comics & Concept Art)
Hello Mossbros To get onto the BA Games Art course drawing skills is very important and also trying your best at 3D Maya/Max/Zbrush/Mudbox... some kind of games engine helps, Source, UDK, Crysis and so on and anything else artistic will help you, photography, sculpture, painting, drawing, life drawing, location drawing,… -
Re: Alien vs Predator demo comes out tomorrow!
I always find it peculiar that it's the people that dislike things that make up the majority of the posts. People that love it don't post because they're too busy playing than complaining ;) I, on the other hand, am happy with the full version of the game. Movement should not be sluggish. Turn off V-sync and enable Remove… -
Re: Don't make any Long Term Plans...
I think it's great that fusion power is a potential and viable alternative to fossil and fission but there's a key detail in there: the test reactor project is for 35 years on a reactor costing billions of euros with a 500MW output. One point of "The Long Emergency" is that most people don't even know about or aren't… -
Re: Car guys (and gals)
I'm in to the modified scene as the other half has a Ford mk2 Mondeo (Contour over in the US) which has an aftermarket body kit and a few extra bits under the bonnet too (lots of shiny bling... mmmmmm shiny). I'm slowly getting there when doing stuff on cars, going to look around for courses to learn how to mig weld seeing… -
Looking for improvements - 3D game character anim loops
Hey there, first time posting, long time lurker here. I've been working on animations for a game character and would like to get feedback or ideas for improvements. I feel like it is a little bland and want to make this bot have more character. Right now I'm just supplying the walk cycle, run cycle and a forward dodge…
