Re: Online Applications & Connections
If it encourages you, I've gotten all of my jobs from cold calling, not a single one by referral. You just gotta keep pushing! One question though - Do you follow up on those applications or just send them and forget? If you send a follow up a week or so later, politely asking if they had the chance to evaluate your… -
Re: Tropes in Videogames
Yeah I got to agree that he's not always been very refined - as a matter of fact when he moved over to the Escapist I was a bit "meh" to say the least ! But even since he's been hosted there, his videos have been constantly great and, most of the time, using subtle sarcasm (cleverly wrapped in seemingly crude humour) to… -
Re: Mini Environment - Tropical Island
I'm using two normal maps with paners on them and them adding them together to get the normal and the distort information. Unfortunately they don't seem to be doing much. I kinda followed this set up for the water: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=70509 http://forums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?t=733910… -
Re: BLIZZARD Styled Environment Art WIP
Hey looks really good, well done for learning the hand painting style from the tutorial, might have to pick it up to understand it a bit more.

Re: Photoshop tips
I discovered nearly all of these by pure accidental clicking dragging and hitting keys on the keyboard.. lol, I should take it a bit easy.

Re: Where to start in Zbrush (Max user)
Once you start to get your head around the basic introduction it's more about knowing what's possible. Best thing I ever did was to join pinterest and follow boards for zbrush techniques, collecting single images that explain 1 technique as well as videos. Even if you don't really study them they stay in your folder (and… -
Re: Question to experienced Environment Artists: What should I learn?
Since I'm a student I would probably do all of the steps myself when it comes to the environment creation. The things I have gather so far is that I would start with Preproduction following the guide from the book Preproduction blueprint: How to Plan Your Game Environments and Level Designs Tutorial that is available at… -
Re: Marchwarden's Portfolio Work Thread
Hey guys it's been a while. Here is a quick scene I did for school: And here is what I started working on last week: I'm doing a Darksiders homage over the break, I'll see where it takes me. I'm following the concepts Jonathon Kirtz has over at cghub. I really like the style and the sculpting workflow, so it's been fun to… -
Re: Package for hard work
Nice work but your store page is kind of broken. It says "type your email". Got a link to my email which goes back to the store and requires a password - which you can't specify anywhere. So I tried to recover a password "If you want to reset your password, follow the link below." Followed the link back to the store again…
