I am doing the same, best tip I can provide is don't go insane, keep lists, stay focused and on track. some things you will think will be hard and be easy, and sometimes its the reverse of that. my biggest worries are having to deal with legal stuff forming my company into a LTD (cause if you do a kickstarter for instance…
Thats the problem, no they absolutely did not say that or even the slightest of hint of there plans for new consoles. The "they will be out next Christmas" is just another one of the many, many RUMORS people float out there from various "inside" sources who all are saying different things. With the PS3 and 360 doing so…
I see harsh shadows on the grass turning blades of grass into tubes of grass. The harsh light/shadows also do not exists in the rest of the world, which makes for a much more fake world. You're using a normal map to create tonal changes in the grass diffuse, which can easily be done when painting the texture. Once again,…

Probably some guy we get along with and has years of experience to turn into valuable wisdom for…
Hey guys/gals, I know this is already an old post but I thought I would respond with some information. I know my response will come off as bias but I want to give you a quick breakdown of what we are doing at the Dave School for teaching video game art. Warning: Wall of text below. :) My name is Angel Gonzalez and I am the…
Is that an AI-watermark on your marketing graphic. If so, I wonder what else is AI generated :lol: On Superhive it says the creator of this addon is 'Anvil Interactive Solutions', which reminds me of @anvilinteractive, who recently promoted addons by that creator too. Do you know each other?
Ged, I agree it has to be group effort. It is why I have been asking for directors or those under directors who did such. Not sure how it was interpreted to lone wolves? Fwiw I got suckered into being the art director on the current game my company is working on. Hence why I was seeking people who could testify from…
