Re: i am thinking of getting a motorcycle eventually
I've been riding bikes since I was 16. Im now officially very old according to Poop. So, in my significant experience you're missing some stuff: down sides: you have no weather protection. I dont know where you live but riding in the rain is never fun. Neither is riding across a high bridge in high wind. Neither is riding… -
Re: Sketchbook: Jackwhat
The trick I've learned in making perspective that looks good is to work on a small size, take some time to figure out the actual perspective, and then draw in a lot of straight lines that'll besically fill all blank areas. Start with horizon, vanishing point(s), and any other key lines. To make a nice, easy on the eyes… -
Re: "The Secret"
I would say that quote from Bill Hicks is really more part of a rant, than a joke...its just a rant thats also funny, but it also makes a very good point. That the news shapes peoples perception of things, and that in particular people are fed alot of crap in support of the "war on drugs." If you do nothing but tell people… -
Re: Art Institute grads/students
You know, threads like this are really helpful to people like me. 19 years old, been out of high school for a couple years now. As with most high school kids, growing up everyone in the world would shit on me and tell me to go to college - my parents specifically wanted something like AI. I was never against college, but I… -
Re: Explosions in London !!!

Basically he was saying that after something happens all the increased security, the patriot act here in the US, all these reactions that occur that are… -
Re: Normal map to vertex normals?
Yes, my baldycap mesh has identical placement of vertices, and matching normals at each point. Their head normal map isn't very flat there, and leads up to a large bump for the cowl. This isn't final low poly or normal map, I want to get the seam solved first, since that area won't change from here on. (and make a real ear… -
Re: About Pixel Art
This sort of thing kinda goes into why people still really love how certain early 3D games look. Einhander, Megaman Legends 1 and 2, that one Wile E. Coyote game for the playstation. All these games use a lot of managed color tones, and in the case of the latter 2 examples, flat shading to achieve a style that goes beyond… -
Re: Africa and South America are ignored...
Yeah, but it's not just that. In african history you can find some of the most extreme examples of ethnic hatred and xenophobia that aren't really a result of foreign influence. It also shows power and wealth can corrupt people who previously lived in poverty. I've recently read some books by Ryszard Kapuściński. I can't… -
Re: Sketchbook: Yuri
Today I decided to give myself some time to grow slowly. I decided to do a small test of my level by doing a test using blender and zbrush. I took some reference photos I wanted to sculpt from scratch but without following a tutorial... Wow x) It was fun and interesting but from a perspective of an artist, a true disaster… -
Re: Uddebo's WIP
Half-Life 2: Lost Coast - Church Remake in UE4 Ok, instead of basically posting the finished product and ask for feedback, I'm actually going to start posting right from the get-go! I am currently knees-deep in my thesis work right now, but that couldn't stop me from doing some portfolio work on the side! I recently…
