Re: Ghetto Blaster
You've chosen something that's actually tough to practice texturing on, in that you're not really expressing a material so much as a group of decals. So while it's good practice for something like getting comfortable in photoshop, it doesn't do much in the way of getting a better understanding of material expression. That… -
Re: (Character) art test submission - Playing the waiting game
In my experience, the reply to art tests is either pretty swift (couple days to a couple of weeks) or never. More often then not it's never, which in my opinion is really shitty. But then I think the practice of art tests is a pretty shitty practice in general, let alone not even sending a copy-paste decline e-mail. -
Re: Final Fantasy X remake for PS Vita - and PS3
Same, well, at least Tidus. The others weren't as bad, but my friends and I still had a good time making fun of them. I mean, why does Sqeenix keep making me play whiny bitch characters? Vaan is practically this guy's kid, and then there's practically everyone from FFXIII (especially Hope). -
Re: Scotland SDK!!!
So many impressive skins! Nice work everyone! Been busy with school and Oblivion, but I'm finally losing interest in the latter. That means more ugly textures for you to look at! The only real advice I've gotten on texturing is "Practice! Practice!" so I guess that's what I'm going to do. More on the way. -

First of all, sorry for my shitty English, if you guys don't understand a certain sentence just quote that sentence and tell me that you didn't understand what I'm trying to say and I'll do my best in order to phrase it better. Hello Polycount, I'm posting it here because I didn't found any other sub-forum that suits it… -
Re: FUI/HUD Design
I'm not a user interface designer, but did once have an interest in going that route and did research into it, so I'll give my 2c. On the programming side: You'll probably want to start out by learning how to create animated HTML5 webpages, as it's become somewhat common to use web languages for games user interfaces these… -
Re: tips and techniques for PBR metal
Metal is actually pretty easy to do with PBR. Since metals generally reflect almost 100% of light that hits them, you simply need to make your specular color the final color of reflections you'd like to see. For example, you'd want a light pinkish color for clean copper, or a bright desaturated yellow for most types of… -
Re: Horned Demon
good to see you are trying something like this, it isn't easy to get muscles to look right and requires a lot of practice/research and again practice. try not to focus on all those individual muscles just yet but try to get the overall blocks of form to read right. i did a quick overpaint for you, hope it helps -
Re: Material math recommendation!
nice read definitely yes on shaderFX I found the best way to get in to it was to just practice and practice, after a while I got a feel for what operations were needed. I can't do the crazy, math orientated tech artist stuff but I like to think I can hold my own with it. -
