I'm not familiar with UAT or it's students, but it sounds alot like my university: students with unrealistic expectations and mediocre to subpar portfolios, lax grading, and a 'send-em-on-through" attitude of the faculty. I think it would be safe to assume there are a lot of people in a lot of fields with the same…
I think DVDs should do the trick. They won't last forever, but I bet they'll last maybe 10-15 years at the very least if you treat them alright. Chances are you won't even need the stuff you're backing up in that time, and if you do, you could copy them, or put them on whatever magical storing device we'll have by then.…
I love the idea - kinda like 70's Blaxploitation meets Barbarella - but the exoskeleton really does look like something you'd need after being in a serious accident. It's well-executed, but it doesn't look very sci-fi. On top of that, it looks really uncomfortable, and doesn't fit with the sleek lines and curves of your…
A 1 day student pass or an expo pass are not going to be anywhere near as valuable as the full deal, but if you've got a good portfolio to show (Have a physical hard copy, with business cards/CDs! Nobody is going to pull up your website while talking to you - most people don't even have in front of them at the booth) it…

That's what I was trying to do before you suggested to put color! I'll probably do about 2-5 more tile sets:* 1x4 * ... and then I'll think about color. Would the brightness of the tiles (Black, White, Gray) be around 15-20% difference? For example, say the gray was 50%, the dark tile would be 30-35% brightness while white…
Set a goal for yourself and make assets that allow you to reach that goal. My personal goal is $40 per hour. So, if I work eight hours on something I need to make $320 to reach my goal. I keep 70% of the $20, or $14. $320/$14 = 23 copies sold, or about 2 copies a month spread over a year. This is a very easy goal to…
The research contradicts a lot of that plus it wouldn't match the characters its not James Bond. I think its inaccurate to compare it to an old folks retirement home because they are about comfort, big chairs and house hold furniture and don't have tech equipment everywhere. When you look at the decor of the 70's brown is…
those legs wouldnt work mechanically...or at least appear that way... there are no working hinges and they are too thin a we bulk up maybe three spars inm the lower part and four in the top would immediatly help.. personally i would get rid of most of the paint, maybe keep the yellow areas but change it to a nice orange…
I know many well known concept artists that openly admit to using Vitaly Bulgarovs kit bashing sets in their work. It's like using someone else's brushes in photoshop. That said, concept art isn't about how well you can model something and Bulgarov sells the parts to be used however people see fit. Never try and take…
