Thanks for your input locater :D ! Gosh, this polycount community is super badass! I agree with it being to colorful and saturated. So I went ahead and did that, which I think helps pop the trees out more, but allows the cooler dirt to contrast that nicely and be a more neutral color. It will really help when I do a couple…
Ahhhh, thats super awesomely helpful thanks! Still gonna do a game works build because I love HBAO and VXGI, and epics dynamic GI is not production ready yet. Also Nvidias AA has more options to tweak. I've always wondered why things like that aren't default in the engine because they're kinda standard in games now.…
Off topic, but I wished I learned that starting to save for retirement at 25 would earn you twice as much money by retirement age as if you started saving at 35, due to compound interest. I've no doubt been saving but it'd have been wicked to have pummeled my $$$ into investments starting when I got my first job at 16 y/o.…
An overall comment, remember to include your name & contact information on each image; this is critical if you're looking for work. Also, a name/description and information (polycount, texture sizes) will be nice once you've got your portfolio site. On your first character (space pirate?), the brace of pistols should be…
He looks rather dour. Is the idea that this is the Joker who's gotten hold of Batman's cowl or has he made this gear himself? If the latter is the case, you could do some adjustment to the face mask so it looks a bit less frowny - pushing the eyebrows up. His mouth and eyes are also kind of grumpy looking, even in their…
Turn off the matcap first. Then, you should probably change the default Blender OpenGL lighting setup (In user preferences). It uses a tri-light setup with some weird color presets which makes stuff look low-contrast and bland. Make it a single light set-up with a neutral grey diffuse color of about 0.6 and a specular…
@stevston89 Wonderful work! I feel the lips could be lifted a bit more from the sides to provide a neutral expression like in the concept, and maybe pull down the eyebrows more to give a more weather-beaten feeling to him. My first post in my first ever character challenge, hope I did well for the time being. This post is…
Day 2 Update! (Images and links in OP) Didn't get much actual work done, other than a few accents. Today was mostly a planning and research day. On the bright side, I made the image links into actual links since I forgot to do that the first time around :neutral: Change Notes: * Added accents to muzzle break * Extended…
Didn't Apple just lose recently to disputes over "App Store" being used by Amazon? Think the difference there was that "App Store" is a pretty generic term. I don't want to speculate on outcomes as I'm no lawyer, but it seems a little silly to be up in arms over the world "Scrolls." As a gamer, when I hear or read…
I don't cheese....98% of the time playing random mp, but I don't mind those tactics at all. I don't think they're dirty and they actually add to the challenge. Bitter if you lose to one, funny feeling if you neutralize it especially the hard workikng probe setting up his pylon/cannon layout. These tactics show your…
