Hey Camrat, I saw that you posted on my thread asking about lighting. :) With your scene in particular, my eye has a bit of trouble being guided through the composition. You've got all these great little details with your bridge geo, but you need to help my eye out by guiding it a bit with lighting. It's reading a bit…
I have some questions/suggestions for OP, and some of these might help everyone else too: First, where are you now currently and where are your from? (apologies if I missed this) I ask because that can change your situation, like if you're in the US now and are on Visa, I think leaving school means you have to leave the…
Hey! Good start! Welcome to the world of organic topology. This is going to sound a bit harsh but I would suggest starting over at this point. This model has lots of weird topology and your edge loops are not going to deform properly. When the shoulders move for example there should be a flow of edges... almost like a…
Thanks for the input! I actually didn't rig the arms in this example I just happened to add all the bones when I added the skin modifier and so the envelopes created happened to catch those vertices and the animation on the bones already included the arms moving. Believe it or not I don't really have any trouble rigging a…
Meh I have meet to many people with money that don't buy games because you can get them for free. I think the problem with games as a consumer, is when you buy the freaking thing take it home and it doesn't work. My ex son spend almost over one hundred dollars trying to mod his xbox to get pirated games to play on and…
Think about what all this would mean. You want the government to pony up the money to pay for R&D, but where does the government get that money? You and me. I for one don't want my taxes spent on creating new technologies when all the profits from those efforts go to the car companies and not back in my pocket. Second,…
[ QUOTE ] In fact, a sci-fi or fantasy genre *could* have product placement so-long as that product is recreated in a way workable for that environment: If Coke were to want some real estate in a certain sci-fi game their Coke product would have to be redesigned to fit the sci-fi theme. An example would be to redesign the…
Hey everyone! Welcome to the 92nd edition of the Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge for the months of September and October! This challenge is a way for real-time 3D artists to test their skills and create a piece of work based on concepts provided. It's open to those of all skill levels and we do our best to provide…
Edit2* I've received lots of offers! I'm reviewing them and will decide within the next week. Thank you everybody for your messages! Edit* I've gotten a lot of messages, I'll respond to each one but it'll take some time! Thank you! I'm hiring a 3D artist for an unannounced Unity sci-fi game and looking to hire a 3d modeler…
Do you have an example? Objects (especially ones that can be broken down into primitive shapes) have perspective/vanishing points too. Else you have to eyeball. I think when translating 2D designs into 3D, one should focus on capturing the "essence", so the 3D model stands on its own and doesn't fall apart from certain…
