Sounds like you just want to be with like minded people. Check out local meetsups. Not sure where you live but Check and see if you have any local community colleges in the area and attend a class that is relevant to the industry, you'll make friends etc.. I thought I really wanted to go to a college for this stuff but…
I think even an AK-47 is overreaching at this point, mate. Your main concern this early should be to learn how to recognize and make different shapes, how subdivision works and modern textures are made. As you go along you'll learn the tools and tricks needed to advance. This takes a lot of effort and time, so I'd suggest…
Quite a few new additions to polycount lately, it's kind of exciting :) and welcome to the states! I'm going to say it straight out, your portfolio doesn't have anywhere near what it takes to make it in the industry, you'll learn why when you keep at it. But you're on the right path posting on polycount. You show some raw…
Dude, get off your high horse. If one person on these boards tells me they have never used pirated media then they are lying. Is it theft? yes it is. do I know it? yes I do. Do I care? No I bloody well don't. Why? Because unlike the millions of people out there that play pirated games with no intention of buying, I DO…
I'd say in most cases, it's you having to stay late to get work done in a short amount of time. Having to stay late and show face should be the a sign of trouble. Crunch is a normal part of any scheduled project. Despite what an amazing schedule may suggest... no one is a machine and something is bound to go wrong. Even…

I've been doing 3d art as a hobby for over twenty years - I started at the age of 12 or so making weapons for Quake, then levels for Half LIfe... I experimented over the years with doing film-oriented…

This hobby Steam game project would be something different that could boost your portfolio for potential future contracts in the industry. We see thousands of new players join…

Even with a Greenlit steam kind of system it would end up like the same problem they have, clan greenlit each other no matter how crappy the game is. I think one of the big problem is that we are starting to have a lot of "Here's my finished scene" thread. And people don't care much about them.. I mean if you wanna…
Its time you relied on yourself (and google) like the rest of the world. It's so incredibly easy now it's almost idiot proof (even without google). If he's so blinded by XP love and so horrifically ill-informed about something as basic as to which OS to use, then he's a horrible guy to turn to for tech help, you should be…
