Re: Bernie Sanders ideas is to make Wall Street pay for free education
@FULGORE - How would the fastest growing sector in the U.S. economy grow if you don't train new industry talent? and preferably debt free talent? do you not think it would cause the industry to rely on more outsourcing and growing talent elsewhere, maybe in a country with free education so the work force is able to put… -
Re: I want your bodies
That's usually set up in tiers, there's the GBA/DS tier and the current gen tier. Usually the main team will make only one version (the home console version that is aimed at the weakest system included and given some additional effects for the bigger systems) and the portable version is outsourced. For the Splintercell… -
Re: [Portfolio] Justin Dinges, Environment Artist
Nice stuff man, love the Singularity work, the game looks awesome. I got a quick question though, I notice on your site it says you're a Senior Env Artist, but you note on the XMen / Singularity stuff that you did level dressing / blocking. I am yet to get my first job in the industry so I have no idea the way studios work… -
Re: Have you ever been disappointed in CGI industry?
There is more demand than you might realise. A lot of it comes in the form of outsource or external development studios. These tend to be less advertised and I suppose less prestigious than the big name studios. But really, they do so much of the heavy lifting that they deserve more recognition. The industry is small,… -
Re: What would this cost roughly?
Have to second what Earthquake said. The question is how much is your budget and how close to AAA quality is good enough? If you can afford somewhere between $1,000-2,000 you might be able to get close enough for a hobby project. There's a new outsourcing site / studio called CG Hero and they have a large number of… -
Re: BMW suing Turbosquid over car models
Not surprising at all. As an Outsource Manager and artist, I've had to deal with this sort of issue many many times. In particular, it seems that vehicle and weapon companies get can very picky about someone using a design too close to the actual product designs. And they pretty much have to do it. In order to keep a… -
Re: Is there a protest going on right now at Artstation?
I think for now it's best to judge this on a case by case basis. Use the Flag:Report button, and give us details on exactly how the piece is infringement. Include screenshots of original art side-by-side with the new one. If it's an un-attributed steal, we'll take it down, and warn the offender. We've done this recently,… -

Re: IGDA article about trouble filling jobs
Just wondering whether potential candidates for these roles are actually tested for their ability or if recruiters are more focused on poaching talent which is why it's difficult. Does this differ between roles such as between character and environment art. A lot of specialized work such as hair, cloth, heads.etc is… -
Re: Character Artist Portfolio Critique
wow thank you for the critique, satoshi. I'm a fan of your work and the content you've put out to help other artists. That gives me a lot to go on and i will definitely rework those 3 characters. It sounds like overall my texturing and hair skills are still noticeably lacking. I was actually just looking into taking some…
