Re: Any developers here dealt with NoGravity/Fat Dog Games?
also, @PixelMasher , thousands of free keys? we sent out maybe a hundred... would you say that's waaaay too few? I suppose it kind of depends on the game. In our case, its a linear turn-based strategy game. Very niche, and a more antiquated game design in that it's one-and-done experience. -
Re: What problems do new 3d artists from India face while applying for jobs.
@PixelMasher @EarthQuake Thank you very much for going out of your ways to write these detailed comments.....really appreciate it. Route#1 seems to be the better option after a bit of research, guess I will join a masters degree programme for fine arts or design (1 year to go) and use that time to improve myself as an… -
Re: Got Experience in 3D Characters (7 Years) But no Portfolio, Want to Freelance, Any Help Please?
Pixelmasher is spot on. It's going to be tough for you to get a gig with ur current folio and announcing your computer is going to die doesn't help in the slightest.

For just a stone or brick wall that didnt have plaster or anything I was out of ideas pretty quick.

Re: Are 3D character artists less in demand than environment artists?
Yeah, I am turned off by companies that ghost applicants. I don't care if recruiter is busy. I am busy too. Everybody is fucking busy. It takes a lot of time to fill out applications, not to mention the time you spend researching and finding companies to apply to in the first place. If company doesn't make the effort to be… -

Re: Does this sound like a legitimate school to go to?
I would continue your own personal studies using more inexpensive sites like 3DMotive and Gnomon while building up to a class like CGMA as Pixelmasher mentioned. Based on your one showcase post, you're right at the beginning of your journey and there's no better time to learn the best practices from people who know what… -
