Re: Self portrait WIP
Hey EmAr, nice start! Maybe you'll want to tone down the specularity. The profile of your nose is very distinctive, and this appears lost in the model. You've made the brow appear very prominent on the contrary, but it doesn't seem to push out quite that far. Not sure if you did already, but you might consider doing some… -
Re: 3D Art - Whats your story?
Jurassic Park and Toy Story blew my mind as a kid back in the early 90s. They sort of sat in the back of my head for the next decade or so until about 2001-02 when my sister's boyfriend showed me a pirated copy of Bryce 3D. I immediately got to work making chrome flying saucers and shitty landscapes. From there, I found… -
Re: Question to those with shipped titles?
Coleco = Initially, no copies. Then only copies of games you actually worked on. Had to buy my own ColecoVision. Freelance = usually got a couple copies of the PC game and half a dozen copies of any paper and pencil RPG game products I worked on. TSR (RPG product) = got one copy of every stinking product the company… -
Re: It seems to be impossible to find a job as a Modeler in this industry
I'm not quite sure that is accurate Fuse. I know this sounds lame but Arnold Schwarzenegger is a prime example of someone who has pushed to be a great athlete, and then a great actor, and now a great politician. Maybe he is just genetically wired for it, but I believe it's more a case of hard work and passion. Without… -
Re: Seek Professional Opinion for Environment Artist Career Decision
Sigmafie: Thank you for your reply. My son has some natural pencil art talent. He also has dabbled in digital art (even teaching me a thing or two about Photoshop). I have done some project managing for a few board game and toy companies so I am aware of the difficulties in landing a job in the industry and have discussed… -
Re: State of the Industry: Why you should or should not give up.
Fair enough mate, but I did say know when to stop, you dont need to go full hermit style, sitting with paper and pencil, tumbleweeds blowing past in your room. Though michaelangelo, and most of the other great artists of legend pretty much did lock themselves away from everyone and everything and became cooky pricks haha!… -
Re: When do u need an art test?
Like said above, it really depends on the studio and what you want to do. A friend of mine who just graduated in December had an interview with a game studio here in Dallas. He was going for an animator position, and before his 'formal' interview, he was given a Maya file and his test was to clean up some Motion Capture… -
Re: Sketchbook: Ilja Japhir Kocken
hey good to see your determined to improve. These images have some character but there is alot of room for improvement. Particularly the way youve used your pencil, things just arent flowing(looks scratchy) and it looks like youve gone over the same areas over and over like you werent sure how to draw them the first time.… -
Re: Drawing & practice
We're hating on tracing cause what you're doing is not tracing :P Tracing means following the lines. By noting and drawing things like the line of action, some perspective, and porportion, you're actively thinking about what you're doing and learning from it. Tracing is just mindless tracing :p IMO, the best way to learn… -
Re: Choosing a University for Game Design - HELP!
To echo what everyone else has been saying, if you feel that your drawing skills are sub-par, then traditional art should be your immediate focus. When I started computer animation classes at the college I went to it was -very- easy to distinguish between who had a solid traditional background and the guys who didn't.…
