you keep referencing "girly" looks, but Eyvind Earl sppears more influential than Mary Blair, and Eyvind is a dude. Your crutch of sexism doesnt' exactly hold up here. Men and women both equally use the cutesy Earl/Blair style. As to why? Because they're very simplified, graphic styles, and the art world as a whole has…
I am a max user at the base, but got hired recently in a XSI studio. I think xsi is a kickass app for pretty much everything. And although I feel I am getting used pretty fast... I 'll agree with Pior about the modifier stack in max, that simply rocks. But at the end of the day yeah an app is an app. Same thing happened to…
I suggested marmoset because he dosnt seem to comfortable with light setups and Rendering in 3DS Max is a mess to get right and I strongly doubt he would get good results out of that, while zBrush dosnt really allow anything that is particulary impressive if I remember right.They certainly don't need to be rendered…
@hile Awesome work on it! Really love the colors you were able to achieve and it's very crisp overall. Really awesome to see so many people doing progress gifs, too! 😀 Some tiny nitpicks to consider for your next project: I'd expect more edge wear. Not necessarily everywhere but down near the water where it's more likely…
Hey bud, I broke into the industry without having gone to school, and by just following tutorials. Its definitely doable. Its all about the portfolio and portfolio direction. Right now, your portfolio says "product rendering", which you could lean into. I'm not 100% sure but I'd assume someone who is good at producing…
I've been using substance painter for awhile now but mostly depending on premade materials and smart materials, and alpha stamping. I'm really looking to improve and get into hand texturing my own assets and not depending on drag and drop with heavy filter and generator usage and masks. What steps would I need to be able…
IMHO you're still skipping on the most basic step of troubleshooting which is to provide a practical case of what you're having an issue with, for people to have a look. And as the person having the issue, there's no way for you to know that a certain solution (in this case, buying some other lens) is actually worth…
I'm confused accualy. Why would he reply to such emails in the firstplace? It doesn't make sense. If they are real he is absolutely retarted. It's just amazing how many people want to point the finger at so many other things than parents not paying any attention to their kids anymore. Sure, if you dont teach your child…
Thank you for this! some of these are really helpful 1 - yes, some areas, such as the square bumps in the middle of the head, i left unchamfered purely out of haste. should the high poly have any hard edges at all? is it only the low poly in-game mesh that needs hard/soft setup? are there benefits to hard/softing the high…
Hmmmmm interesting read here.. As always LOST is at the top of my TV viewing list each week, in fact, its about the only hour of TV a watch per week.. I see lots of theories and "guesses" as to whats going on, many of which have already been disproved or shot down by the shows producers.. (For example the purgatory…
