Re: Online 3d contests?

Just checked,apparently there is not a new January challenge going... :( Maybe was because of all the recent holidays so maybe the January challenge is coming soon,anyway there is any way to receive a notification when it starts,or a thread here on polycount that keep track of all this events? :poly122: Because I… -
Re: Portfolio Update - Looking for crits
Maybe consider dropping the "Monthly noob challenge 6" title from your opening portfolio page. This name is fine on the forum and gets the idea of the challenge across really well but you want to impress potential employers within seconds of opening your page. Also the shot of the scene looks really nice, putting "noob" on… -
Re: Guedin's sketchbook
Awww man I know, at first i tried to do the hair with the fur feature in houdini, but I had some much trouble with that that I changed for solid hair. I should have tried to rig the hair with a jiggle bone but, well, ran out of time :) But I'm glad you liked it anyway. This challenge was really ... well ... challenging for… -
Re: Can anyone Reccomend some 3d environment artists to look at/ input needed
Matthew, thank you very much. I have decided to take your and everyone elses advice and do the challenge. Just out of curiosity, in principal am I approaching my blockouts in a fundamentally sound way? As when I do the challenge I am going to approach my blocking out in a method similar to this overly ambitious environment… -
Re: Looking for ideas on how I can improve environment art
You could also participate in the bi-monthly environment art challenges. You can follow along with other people and pick their brains while working on different interpretations of the same concept art. Working with others can help with motivation and finding inspiration/direction.… -
Re: 3Daily - CrazyYuan
Dear lord you are getting good fast! Makes me want to take up this challenge myself. Maybe you can challenge yourself further yet at some point, and make 1 item a day for the purposes of creating a full scene in a room? I know you have basic scenes here, but a complex one will really polish an art portfolio :) -
Re: Portfolio Critique
That's not true at all when it comes to learning 3d art. You will learn much more by taking something relatively simple and pushing it to a professional (or at least near-professional) level than you will trying and failing to do something grandiose. That go-kart scene would present plenty of new challenges. There's no… -
Re: The Monthly HANDPAINT ArtJam | June 2015
@Atticus I'm completely with Darkmag on this, don't let anything stop you from participating... in fact any tournaments, challenges, competitions etc you find on this forum is open to all levels of artists so by all means just use them for your interests :) I'll hopefully start my challenge this weekend... I'm planning on… -
Re: Tron PSP Pimp
Awesome work dude! Looks great on the PSP. The designs look really slick with the semi-transparent platforms and such. Very sleek and sexy. The grid vehicles zipping by is also awesome - I think I'm going to steal that for my challenge entry :P fearian - yeah dude, 1024 tris for a whole environment is WAY lower spec than… -
Re: What's my next step?
Don't be afraid to try stuff out on your own. I'd suggest finding concept art and trying to replicate it. Polycount has both a character and environment challenge every 2 months which I'd highly suggest joining; they're in the 3D Showcase section. If you've done a ton of tutorials, it might be time to step out of the…
