Re: Salary of a 3d artist?
depends on experience, company and where you are (US?). It's kinda like Engineering. There's engineers who build kitchen blenders and there's Engineers who build rocket engines. It's similar in games - totally depends. I know people who work on low end browser games and I know people who work on AAA games. Neither of them… -
Re: Artstation "job" offers (rant warning)
You will get those anywhere, If there is a good place to connect with artists then both serious and not so serious companies will gather around. I have gotten many serious AAA offers as well as a lot of spam, and I also use artstation to recruit artists, so there is a lot of recruiting going on, other factors decide who… -
Re: Microsoft Creative Director on Always Online: 'Deal With It'
It's been a while since you can't resell most PC games anymore and the PC market has probably never been in such a good shape. Resell value is not what is important. A large choice of quality games in a large range of prices is. If the next gen consoles kill the second hand market, all they need to do is to open their… -
Re: what is the difference between game and film for an 3D Artist?
@dustinbrown got it right. In addition you have higher specialization. E.g. people who just do shaders, people who just do textures, people who just model heads, etc. Models are also more complex - similar to your high poly meshes in AAA, with the exception that those have to animate. Basically, the further you're at the… -
Re: RAGE
Hehe Spark, it's kind of ironic that Matt is so outspoken about id being the least wanted place he'd ever consider working for as if he's an industry giant and AAA studios are foaming at the mouth to get his talents. I'd hate to break it to you Matt, but I wouldn't aim that high yet :) And now you probably guaranteed… -
Re: [Maya] [Viewport 2.0] Is there a way to create 2D post-process ?
Thanks for your answers guys ! both looks very interesting, but - yebis need licensing, and the japan only store is not very mainstream enough for me. it's what they used in painter for post-process, so that looks definitly AAA. - reshade looks to be quite experimental at the moment… -
Re: Our Lady of Hyrule [Work in Progress]
@Ged Yeah I agree, I noticed these things too but I really need to improve on other things that are way worse down in the pipeline. I don't know how to retopologize well, and I have little to no experience with texturing and UV mapping skills are really bad. I'm going to take this model as it is because it doesn't need to… -
Re: Red Dead Redemption
After GUN was released, I assumed there would never be a AAA quality game set in the Old West. This game is going to prove me wrong. I'm only hearing good reviews about, except from those that own a PS3. And all the videos for it are amazing. I will be getting it soon. I'm tempted to see it looks to be a better game than… -
Re: What do you want to start seeing in games?
I don't know about that - any female gamers around here with a view on the way men are portrayed in games? True for some types of games more than others. Certainly of the AAA action titles with muscle-bound manly men - COD, Gears of war etc. but then I don't think people play those games looking for depth of story and… -
Re: Seeking Feedback: Am I on Track? Portfolio Review and Project Time Estimates
Hi! My first impression on your portfolio reel is that all of your models and environments are extremely simple as far as modelling, texturing, and lighting/presentation. Imo its perfectly fine to spend more time on a personal project if that means that you are making it better, adding more elements (like props) , or just…
