Re: Swade's Dota 2 Workshop (Merchandise)
Thanks! The idea with those last year was to make the wallpapers as a kind of marketing for the workshop designs. Months after TI4 it occurred to me that there was potential to do loading screens with them; though the majority of loading screens are either valve-made or paired with a specific set. Really I'm not sure if… -
Re: Completed 3D Spiked Bat
Pixel density and UV usage aside... Is this a first person weapon? You could use a lot more polys and actually model the barbwire, unless this is for mobile which then there is a lot of waste. Even TF2 has higher triangle counts and those weapons are stylistically overly simplified. For a FPS weapon 10k polys is not too… -
Re: [UE4] Portfolio scene+meshes - WiP
First off: Cool scene to work on.. DA + Awakenings were great! It's very early work but I'll list everything that comes to mind right now, some of these you will probably have seen yourself already. -If you're going to make static flags then model in a slight bend or crookedness because perfectly flat banners look too… -
Re: UDK - Huge Sci-Fi Foundry [WIP]
I agree with the fog, its really important, also I wasn't saying it was bad, I was asking if the change in color is from the fog in the tunnel. As far as what you like, I understand that, but there are color rules that people naturally are drawn too, in this case you'd want to use complimentary colors. I'd at the very… -
Re: Books?
Isolation/Knightly/Space stuff... His Majesty's Starship ("The Ark" in the US) by Ben Jeapes - Really aimed at "teens" but it's got some cool ideas on space tech, combat and aliens. I guess it kind of deals with isolation and knightly behavour a bit, too. Excession by Iain M Banks - Some very cool space related stuff.… -
Re: A game that impacts peoples lives
@Ysalex: I personally don't feel the action-reaction scheme is the same as it is in media. A book might move between quiet and action moments, but it's all text. A piece of music has softer and more bombastic parts, but it's all music. In games, the action is handled by means of game, but the reflective parts are handled… -
Re: Talkative = Attractive (?)
yea this industry is a pretty communal social type of job. I think everyone pretty much nailed it on the head, the badass artist who is super quite, never talks never goes for a drink after work and is pretty much forgettable while having amazing art skills will probably be passed over for promotion in favor of someone who… -
Re: First 3D Portfolio (Student)
Congrats on getting a portfolio put together. First, you should decide where you want to focus. Right now you have characters, vehicles, and an environment..do you want to sell yourself as a generalist? or are you looking towards environment art? Whatever you shoot for, you should focus your portfolio mostly on that.… -

Re: Flakk Cannon - WIP
There are a couple practical reasons for the uv layout. 1. Hard edges. Pretty much anywhere I had to put a hard edge to fix shading issues, I had to split the uv shells. It was a balancing act deciding where I wanted to split the shells and where I wanted to keep the seam for texturing. As you know, if you have a softened…
