Very interesting thread - ranging from chemical brain imbalances to the subject of good work ethics! I have always been puzzled by ADD and ADHD. I am not saying that I don't believe they exist (I am pretty sure that they do, just like chronic depression and other strong brain imbalances causing behavioral shifts) but I…
I treat my freelancing (been at it for 6 years) as a regular full-time job, with the caveat that I need at times to work late, or conform my schedule to the client if they're living in an opposite time zone. I make myself available if the client needs to communicate after hours. If I don't have a paying gig I force myself…
HM, actually i cant see any difference , what does the normalizing do ? Maybe because i have a constant 3 with 1 in blue instead of a normal map? Will be using it for the hobby game I'm working on, Many of the level assets are metallic. I'm mainly looking for all kinds of Lighting model shaders to bring a little more…
Hello there! I'm new to the forums but I was told this would be a good place to come for feedback, criticism and general advice/tips for sculpting. I started using ZBrush last Sunday and set myself the task of modelling a character (originally just a head, but I decided to make the full character), I'd recently watched The…

I was planning to use a pretty limited color pallet, mostly in undersaturated browns and greys with relatively few pops of color to give it plenty of "visual rest". Any other…

I was inspired to start this after reading WETA's Hobbit Art-of books which contains a variety of styles one of which is using photo source (example, using actor's face who's non-dwarf in height photoshopped to a costumed…
Hi Polycount, After spending the past 9 years working as an artist in the film industry on titles such as Interstellar, Avatar and The Hobbit, I have decided to put my skills to use someplace else and make a game! It is to this end I have decided to enlist (hopefully) some fellow artists to make it happen! The game will…
Sounded to me like Kate and Charlie were the only single ones on the show, so it had to happen right . Plus Charlie used to be a hobbit! **spoiler** Now we know about the payment that Jun had to give for learning english. When Sayid and Jin were on the island waiting, why go so far inwards. I would of hid behind the docks…
Gee exactly what I said, they updated the fighting all stars engine. Capcom needs to get it through they're thick assed armor plating made of 'ignorance and ghey', that streetfighter was not meant to be 3D. For the love of Shakira, we have so many talented 2d animation studios, doubly so in japan. Why in gods name could…
