Re: Help me become a better Artist.
Practice practice practice. Books and tutorials are helpful but only get you so far, and has been debated here and elsewhere that they hinder you more than help you. I am currently a student learning game art and I constantly feel like I need to improve and come to these forums when I can to get input. I find that the more… -
Re: Portfolio Critique request.
Looks good, but this site is broken up too much, hiding your art and reducing visibility. Remove "GALLERY" as a choice. It's fine as a start page, but is redundant to the other 3 sections being there Normally, I'd suggest all portfolio content on a single page, but this tri-split is "ok". I didn't notice the image… -

Quick And Dirty Tutorial - Random Star Technique to Hide Seams
In another thread http://polycount.com/discussion/comment/2530533/#Comment_2530533 I mentioned that I use a different technique to remove seams from textures. This technique uses random star patterns cut out from the texture and moved over the seams to hide them. The eye can spot strong horizontal and vertical lines. So,… -
of Streaming and Streaming sites
Recently alot more people have been streaming their work, and it's fantastic. being able to see others as they work is always a great learning experience. I thought we might do with a centralised thread for streaming discussion and to share channels. I figure also if people post in the same thread when they start… -
Re: Interior Tavern Environment WIP
Ok, so with the bricks on the walls I am guessing are a texture atm? Best way to approach them would be to sculpt a few bricks in Zbrush. Lets say 3 or 4 bricks and make each side different so you pretty much tipple the usage out of them. Then you can use the 2.5D mode in Zbrush to create a tiled texture. Bake out you… -
Re: Brutal Legend
People will disagree with this, but it's my personal opinion, so there's not much to argue. But totally this is my game of the year. I bought a ps3 finally so I picked it up for that just cause and it's pretty great. Here's a brief list of things I liked. Liked: The World: Exploration is by far my most favorite part of… -
Re: How about them Wikileaks, eh?
You effin' said it. They change meanings constantly. Not to long ago how people perceive "republicans" were actually the "democrats". They just switch to the winning side. Its just a matter of what scum is chosen for "X" corporation. Its no different than it was during the days of the railroad tycoons its just corporations… -
Re: Celtic/Norse Environment in UDK (remake) WIP
Consistent ≠ perfect. And it doesn't need to look perfect, on the contrary - the hard rectangles for the colours currently make the banner look fake. If it's woven in or sowed on, it'll not be 100% straight. But all the stuff will have roughly the same thickness and amount of 'wobble'. In the wolf banner, some stuff… -
Re: M1911 (Critique Wanted!)
Bek: My main reason for not mirroring the sides was for the different AO from the thumb safety and the slide catch. Now that I think about it, it's probably better to save on texture space rather than have barely noticeable AO in that area. What do you think? I'm not using a gloss map. The 2047^2 must be an error in the…
