Hey, I'll do my best to answer your questions. I'll keep things simple but if you want me to go further into detail on certain points let me know. 1) That is one workflow, there is nothing stopping you from making something in ZBrush, retopologizing (making it low poly) in ZBrush also too. My general workflow really just…
Start applying for jobs now, see how things work, get a feel for how long it takes to get contacted by companies and which types of companies contact you. As you actively seek employment while in school start tailoring your portfolio for what you've having the most luck with. Even not hearing back from companies will be…
I think you need to take a step back, a deep breath, and slow down a bit. Seems like you are finding yourself in the same position a lot of people get into with having a lot of ideas and trying to rush through the "OMG I HAVE TO LEARN FUCKING EVERYTHING NOW!" phase. Try to focus on the scuplting for moment, since that is…
It has definitely helped to work on something that is a little less stressful, asset-wise. Even this project has been crazy though and without our awesome artist carl, and other guys who have helped, we wouldn't have been able to get as far as we have. I am hoping to pull together the basic functionality of the editor and…
Snowfly has some really good advice there. The more you know, the more diverse shapes, forms, ideas, etc you're exposed to the more creative you'll be.

But we're talking about such subtle differences you'll never know which one is a weak one until…
Nope your not... I love it too. I personally couldn't give a shit about this mentality of 'oh it's so over complex, all this shit everywhere, just let me play music I don't need it to make coffee etc'... it's a music player for goodness sake. We play music to make ourselves happy, to enjoy it. God forbid they actually make…
Of course people are going to have different views on how 'cut' they like their men to be MoP, but the point is, he looks better and is healthier and fitter than before he started. I for one think what he's achieved is commendable and impressive. Pak: Sure. I have a personal trainer for an hour on mondays, wednesdays and…
I agree that I'm not entirelly thrilled with the visual quality - as I mentioned earlier, I'm personally disappointed in the texture resolution being so low. Looking at a similar game in terms of style, I think Max Payne 2 had crisper 2D work. However... I don't assume this is necessarily a flaw of the Source engine, or…
Thanks guys! Yeah this wasn't supposed to get out until next week. That's what I get for telling a ruskie. I have accepted an Art Lead role with Green Monster Games. What that means is still to be determined as the company is literally forming now and roles will be better defined once we get more personnel in. At the very…
