Advice for a newbie!
Hi All, I'm in my first year of college on my journey to become a 3D Game Artist. I am currently going to Full Sail University to get my Bachelor's in Game Art and they even introduced forums like polycount and ZbrushCentral to join a community where I can grow. So here I am! I'm such a newbie I don't even have a picture… -
Path to becoming proficient in character concepts?
Hello! I'm sorry if this isn't the best forum for this but I'm hoping you guys can help me, I'm currently stuck in a loop of not knowing exactly how to practice so I'm feeling like I'm in a bit of a stasis.

Re: Improving my 3D modeling
All good tips. As for the triangle fans at the corners (as opposed to the cylinders), they are fine like that in my book. The alternative would be very long thin triangles. Not that it matters a lot either way these days, just good practice. You can use these kind of bevels with face weighted normals (that you seem to be… -

Re: How to start being a technical artist
I'm a TA and I'm studying software engineering, simply because when you move beyond workflow tools into actual pipeline development, understanding good software architecture and design becomes really important. You want to think about re-use, organization of your studio tools and the code base behind it. How to keep it… -
Re: Realistic female game mesh project - feedback much appreciated
Honestly, before sss tutorials or even texturing, i'd suggest you to improve your sculpting and modeling skills, making characters is much more complex than just taking a reference image and making a model over it following the silohouette. Learn everything about anatomy, fat, bones, skin, compression zones, muscles,… -
