First image: For a highpoly it doesn't really matter. The square around the hole is unecessary but it's not exactly 'wrong'. There's also no need to connect those parts so completely with the rest of the mesh. Look at how n-gons behave when you've got subdivision (turbosmooth) applied. That should give you an idea of when…
Wait, did you just describe GoldenEye as an "awesome exploration in art style"? Looks pretty damn grey and bland to me... The only reason Goldeneye wasn't "ultra realistic" was because you couldn't do that on the N64... I don't really get this whole thing, it seems like you're saying "sculpting is easier than painting"?…
Duplicate your mesh. On this duplicate, make your edits. Bind this new mesh to the same skeleton. Transfer weights from old to new mesh. If there are any random verteces that cause spikes and what not, use the hammer skin tool.

I have come to a point where I simply need to suck it up and ask for help and critiques. I have to realize…

We want to take a moment and celebrate the people, studios, games and tools that we all love as a…
Hi everyone, I am primarily a 3D artist and texturer with a big interest in technical stuff that relates to art. some of you may know my dissertation on batching - I found this highly interesting and found out more stuff that was unrelated and thus not needed. this included the transform bottleneck of transform bound or…
That was kick ass watching that guy suck himself into that vortex. My only concern with this season is it feels like it's jumping between characters too much and I'm having some issues following everything now... maybe I'm just getting too old :/
