Re: Sketchbook - glottis8
i did a small sketch of this one on paper which helped a lot. this took around an hr... an hr 10 mins maybe? still wanna add rocks... maybe a toad on the bottom... some more highlights on the water since the black and white values are a little even all the way across. I am not entirely thrilled about the sky... but it sets… -
Re: Freelance and Money
There are plenty of people here that can get away with charging much higher than $20/hr. That's mediocre entry-level contract in LA (don't even get me started on $10/hr). And yes, there are plenty of places with lower costs of living, but Toronto isn't exactly a rural area. Please don't confuse freelance with low-budget;… -
Re: Web Hosting Discount for Polycounters
[ QUOTE ] That's one of the options, yeah. I was thinking of Peasoup though, which is taken in .com, .net and .org. Then it's either mightypea or just my name. Then again, my last name is hardly the most memorable one, I'm afraid. [/ QUOTE ] Careful choosing something that might be misunderstood. You: "yeah i gotta run,… -

Re: Driving to a studio to apply in person - Good idea, bad idea?
I always wondered who reads those third party applications? Art directors or HR department? If HR department, do they even know what to look for art wise or are they just looking for keywords? You know, experience in 3ds max, shipped tittles, blah blah. Anyways, I also vote for not going in person. It's weird. Just keep on… -
Re: [paid] Armor modeling and texturing
Can you expand on this/put this in perspective? do you understand the number of days work this would represent in terms of modeling/texturing? probably 5-7 days. And even if you find someone willing to do this for $10/hr you would be looking at $500 minimum. The reality is closer to 20/hr so double that. and this wouldn't… -

Re: Visiting a game studio?
I can also confirm, it's not usual for game studios to allow visitors inside. If you want to leave your resume you can do it without calling in advance but it will, probably, be received by the receptionist. they will pass on your resume, but will take a bit more time. If you want to get more attention and ask questions,…
