Re: Is my artwork marketable? [ 2D portfolio critique please ]
I would agree with TeriyakiStyle that your paintings do not depict materials too clearly. If you take a gander at artists who regularly hit front page on Artstation who work for game companies regardless of style (Blizzard, Netherrelms, Ubisoft) they all have a knack for materials. The second comment I would have is that… -
Re: i`m running a mentorship program
42/125 portfolios looked at for the mentorship, as you can see choosing 5 is going to be nearly impossible without having to dissapoint some people who were clearly qualified. I got some mails of people who are over-qualified too and while the notion of doing a more collaborative thing or a critique group would be awesome… -
Re: Portfolio advice: Ok to have different art styles?
It is WAY easier to get a job if your folio shows an ability to do hyper-realism. It is a lot harder to get a job when your portfolio is mainly stylized. An exercise I get my students to do, is simply name ALL of the studios in North America that make stylized games off the top of their heads. Compare that list with all of… -

This is mostly AAA studios and there is always exceptions to this rule. If its a… -
Re: Cover Letter
you don't just why you want to work with them, you describe what you can do FOR them and how much more AWESOME stuff will run when they hire you with your awesome skill set (see resume for that)! Remember, everyone wants to work for e.g. Blizzard and writes how awesome yadda yadda they are. Everyone does that. Writing… -
Re: Microsoft's Longhorn OS, now 'Vista', announced
[ QUOTE ] @Marine and Weiser_Cain: That is exactly what I ment, long time Windows user 'excuse' the faults windows has, because they got used to them, and know how to work around them (to quote: "but that's easily solvable without a reboot") . But the reality is that a modern OS should not behave like that EVER, seriously.… -
Re: Demo Reel Feedback
looking good man. The dance clip with Mercy and Tracer turned out well. The lizard crawl is a bit bland, I'd reference a more distinctive lizard like say a chameleon or a wall crawling gecko, even better to have the chicken chase after the lizard for a second or few before eating it. might be good to move the platformer… -
