Re: Dota 2 workshop monthly competition
I think you're looking at this the wrong way. These polycount monthly contests are to build practice, skill and a sense of community. Everyone may be having the same issues so everyone can help each other. If the contestants are lucky, they might even get their items into the game but with no guarantee. The more you… -
Re: Filling out my Portfolio.
Coming along. I'm outta practice... wait was i ever in practice :S. I'm also posting faceted models as smoothing looks gross on something low poly (imo) it'll look far better when i get all the textures going. Fighting with myself to keep her full clothed. Making near naked ladies for finished work isn't something i… -
Re: Industrial Design / How much creative freedom do 3D prop/environment artist have?
Yeah man, I am planning to develop my "visual library" in this remaining year and a half, also going to practice my 2d as much as I can to present a good portfolio. Practically I will develop my 3D with the uni program at a decent level, then comes the FZD part :) . Yeah it seems living is expensive, I will have to make… -
Re: [Substance Painter] Fire Extinguisher
Thank you very much! There is no baked normal map indeed, as I created this model mainly for texturing practice, so there is no hipoly. While working on the extinguisher I learned that weathering effects are pretty hard to control. I thought that small but controlled amount of dust, scratches and effects now is better… -

Re: Thoughts on "DirectX 11"
The DX10 / DX9 comparison screens are quite significative of what can't do the old DX9... DX10 code is practically new, a friend learned DX9 years ago, and when DX10 appeared he needed to learn all again "practically". He said me that it was like to learn a new API. That's an added effort programmers need to do gradually… -
Seivo's Learning Journal
Hi guys, I decided to post some of my practice work and looking for critique. I am looking forward to having more critique and first I decided to post my previous practice to start my journal first. This post will record down my journal and critiques & comments are always welcome! I resize the image to 1000px wide. Feel… -
Re: Criticise my UVs! - 3Ds max 16
Hi Paquette, it's still good practice to keep the texel density consistant between all your faces (whether they have normal detail or not) because you'll be applying additional textures (diffuse/albedo, spec, gloss,etc.) and that detail will need to hold up across the entire model. There are some super good basic tutorials… -
Re: Monthly Environment Art Challenge - July & August 2018 (55)
Very tempting to go for either one of the Hard Surface concepts. The dish looks like a great practice in pushing beyond primitive modeling. I've also been learning Marvelous Designer recently, so the environment concept is a great chance to put those skills into practice specifically for environment work rather than… -
Re: Red Dead Redemption
Someone seriously needs to explain how dueling works, as well as cheating at cards. The menus pop on screen so fast and there is no way to "practice" either of these that I have failed every attempt, or at dueling I just mash buttons. I know there are tricks to doing duels, but I really wish they had let you do some…
