Re: The Paying To Work For Free VFX Business Model
I think you confuse this with something someone else said :) Westerners are an exception here and they earn far more than the average Chinese employee because otherwise you just don't get people from the outside with production xp to come to China - they would just stay in the US/EU. Our studio, close to 1000 employees is… -

Re: Painting skin weights in Maya
Some tips: Only use the tool in "replace" or "smooth" mode. Subtracting weights doesn't work well, since it doesn't know where to assign the remainder. Sometimes smooth assigns a tiny bit of weight to every joint. I can't remember if Maya has a prune weights tool yet or not, but I wrote one a long time ago. Either have an… -
Re: When will we learn?
"Why are there no game sappealing to women?" Yeah, why is it that The fucking Sims doesn't exist? Why are MMORPGs just an illusion created by drugs? Why didn't Nintendo announce they're bringing Nintendogs over here? "You're playing Solitaire at work because you don't want to wait through the startup times" No, because you… -
Re: I need advice on how to proceed with this stone wall technique (Blender/Quixel Mixer/UE4).
Alright, I think I'm 95% done with this! It's starting to look great and I'm proud of it so far. I have decided since I was unhappy with what I found for the angel and devil glass texture, I have decided to just go the extra mile and repaint it from scratch completely in Photoshop with my Wacom tablet. I can say I am very… -

Re: Future of 3D modeling
quality comes from the artist! lets also start like this. The biggest problem that I see currently with asset creation is that the "artists" need to know a shitload of abstract 3d knowledge and other abstract 2d tricks to get something down that ends up being an asset in a game. On top of that this knowledge for the… -
How would YOU design the perfect drawing/painting curriculum?
I need Polycounts help for good curriculums youve thought of or heard about to learn drawing and digital painting for games. At my college I got an independent study class with one of my professors for a drawing credit. I've been doing graphic design and 3D work for games for a while, but I'd really like to improve my… -
