Ad Lib- A Self Improvement Blog
Greetings to all artists, modelers, and hobbyists! I have been very intrigued with game dev for a long while and find myself playing around with programming and digital art in my spare time while studying my first year of music college. I took it upon myself (after a good deal of thought) to get a bit more serious about my… -
Re: [FINISHED] Real-Time Character - Pigeon - Marmoset Toolbag 5
This is great critique @Noren, thanks a lot for taking your time to type it out. You are right, as the beauty shots were the parts I struggled with the most, with many iterations being made. It really was hard to pose and light the model while maintaining a consistent and natural look across all materials. I did use the… -
Re: How do you become a games writer
I wish I could, but my time is limited. My day is spent with my 11 month old - chasing her around, making sure she doesn't die. Her advanced motor skills and ability to run and now climb furniture, mixed with an innate curiosity, make this a difficult task. I could tie her down I suppose. I get about 5-6 hours a day to… -
Re: Abandon the career?
Have you thrown your hat into any remote game artist jobs? I know a handful of people that haven't worked from home while the studios on the other side of the planet. And from how it sounds you're much more interested in fantasy or non-realism stuff, which I definitely understand. So I think you should focus your stuff on… -
Re: "It's time we stopped encouraging indies" - John Warner, 'The Fall'
I don't think he's telling people to not make indie games at all. The title seems kind of misleading. The article definitely seems to be addressing generalist courses at schools, with titles like "indie game development". At the school I went to, I wanted to study games art, but the first year was a generalist games… -
Re: UK Universities
Surely the fact that you had to even say you don't want a 'self-taught vs uni' debate indicates the 'self taught' route is a very real contender for a uni course. Why exactly do you want to go to university to study game art? Just take a look at 99% of studio websites and you'll see that most specifically state their… -
Re: Who's married, and how long?

Re: Help - Too many unfinished drawings!
Seconding not throwing money into anything from CA.org. MagicSugar's advice is also sound, resonates with me anyway. Regarding your issue, I don't think putting money into any classes or tutorials is going to be your answer. Not that it can't be part of the answer, most knowledge can be valuable, but it sounds to me like… -
Re: NEWBIE! learning anatomy, uploading daily progress.
In my opinion the ecorche study isnt really benefiting you the way some other studies might. ecorches are great for understanding muscle deformation and developing very deep understanding but what youre losing is the artistic approach to structure and form. Like i said previously at this stage you are in serious danger of…
