Re: Moving to California - Working in the industry
Moving somewhere expensive to get a job in the industry is a bad move. Getting the job then shipping out is a much better one. You job hunt where it's cheap and follow the money. I've lived in Cali for 18 years its rough regardless of job. You can't really expect just your job to carry you out there. Software engineers and… -
Re: Will I be able to continue developing my 3d skillset and having a job non-related to this field?
back before I broke into the industry and was working on my portfolio, I had just moved out on my own at 18, and was working at......a fucking baby store lol (i needed a job after my savings ran out and they were hiring :P) and also doing a night job 3 nights a week for an online dating company where I was basically… -
Re: Please sign this petition
I think part of the issue is your 18 and your looking to go to school and you see this awesome game design school whispering sweet nothings in your ear and suddenly the cost is irrelevant because your so pumped/naive. Its not really until the end of the program when you realize holy shit its a lot harder to get a job doing… -
Re: MMORPG'S- What would you look for?
Ive never been a fan of levels. Passive skills based on the players own ability and character's experiences, not "xp" but experiences. I could never stand a game where a player would 1 hit kill me just coz there was a numerical difference in character level all else being equal. An ideal mmo would have complexity enough… -
Re: Need Critiques for improve my website and Work
Your website is not very viewer friendly. I have said it before and I will again here, you are not a web designer. Do not design or attempt to build a website. Use a site that is meant to display your work as easily as possible for you and a prospective Art Lead/HR. I recommend Artstation, an example is my portfolio in my… -
Re: EVE Online
Yes CCP spent a lot of time developing that system for the game, however, what happened was the player base became very vocal against CCP spending so much time on this rather unnecessary component to the game, rather than spending that same time either adding new meaningful content or fixing content that had been having… -
Re: Daily Sculpt Grind
Ah I see. Definitely take a look a few other sources like Zygote Body when doing your study. I feel as though his outfit needs more work. The overall design feels kind of like a cop-out. If you look at the DBZ art style especially rarely are the cloths super tight to their body like that; if they do have super tight… -

I'm just going to write a few notes down here so when I can face starting my texture again I remember the thoughts I'm having.

Re: The Gaming Industry: How did you get in?
I was pretty fortunate. I wanted to do 3d art ever since we'd used CAD at school, and I was fascinated by games. So after school finished I managed to get accepted on to a decent Computer Games Modelling and Animation course at Derby Uni. When I was there the course was led by a pro who used to be an Art Manager at Sony… -
Re: game art college graduate success rate....
Where I went to school, they boasted about their 80% graduate success rate, to everyone who was remotely interested in spending $15'000. Being completely in the dark about the industry as a whole at the time, I signed up, got accepted (Obviously, because I was willing to pay). I was in a class of about 18 people, and I,…
