**I know an MMA T-Shirt design is not really related to this forum but I have been a long time member here and I know you guys/girls can draw** Hello Polycount :) My name is Andrew Castro I am the CEO of Ability Fight Wear. I am in need of some T-Shirt designs for my brand. Below I will link to one design I already have…
Okay, so I know the real problem here is that my computer is four years old (which is about 110 in computer years), but I don't have the money to replace it right now. It's been acting weird lately. A few days ago, it started to not recognize the soundcard, and almost every time I booted up I would have to reinstall the…
I'm currently modelling lots of buildings for the background objects on race tracks for real-time rendering. But I've been struggling with buildings a little, especially getting nice glass windows. I'm trying to do the building fronts as just a flat surface with one PBR type shader/texture. So no actual interiors, just…

However, what it can help you with is prepare for post-artist positions (e.g., management) or help you set-up in the meantime before you get in-industry. Just something…
To start of, here are the things I did in 5 months I worked on Age of Wonders 3. I made some time this week to wrap everything up, get screenshots of units I didn't have yet etc. The bigger creatures(like the dragons or the beholder) were made in around 7 workdays. Most of them are 7-11k tris, but the tricount for bigger…
Reference and practice. Model this stuff a bunch! Start small and level up. Think about it like an RPG game. Low level to high level stuff. Do the hard surface challenge stuff like: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=129938 As far your direct questions: It took me 2 years after school to get a job as an…
