Hey everyone, I'm looking for people's stories, basically the struggles you faced in perfecting your skills. just a little bit of background on my current sitch. I come from a 3D modelling background, graduating from a 3D game art degree in 2014. Due to some circumstances I faced at the time I didn't put everything in to…
It's about time I share with you a small piece of my personal project I'm working on. I'm a huge fun of Dark Souls series which is impossible not to fall in love with as you play. I was tremendously impressed with the work From Software has done and I was inspired by both the art and the game itself so that I decided to…
Hey guys, I've been working with Maya (I'm a native 3ds Max user), and I've decided I'm ready to get my feet dirty with a non-tutorial project. I also figure this is a great time to get critiques to stop bad habits before they form. I will be modeling the sword Blood Orchid from Lineage II Concept Art: How I Plan to Tackle…
i did something that was pretty different, back in the day ... when i started uni in 94 i signed on for english and classics. Due to the nature of the place (keele), a lot of students did a four year course, the first year being a foundation year - it was during this year that i learned of a new course starting up, a…

Im thinking they did this to make if feel as if you are tossed in with a bunch of people you dont know and thrown into war, learning about them as the…
Hey, Thankyou for the comment! I am glad you liked the project! About the red nose, i tried to stay true to the concept that nico did! here is the concept I totally agree to your pointer about a fuzz map and fresnel! I was keen on doin that but I wanted to post this before we approached the holidays so I woulda missed the…
yeah I took what you said from last time and relayed out my city to feel a bit more like "your in it" or really small and made they eye follow to the center more..had a few people look over and give me some 2 cents on it as well. I also adjusted the lights overall for the day to night (took into account what your saying…
Exactly. There's so much attention to detail and micro-managing going on, it feels like our bodies are being overworked more than they should be. I was thinking to myself the other day, why was I able to take on so many projects around 2015-2016 but without actually feeling tired from doing it? Even when I was working a…
