Re: [Portfolio] - Anthony Joseph, Prop & Environment Artist
I don't know if anyone has said this but I dunno if its a good idea to have the Eat 3D tutorial (the pillar) in your portfolio, its a tutorial its meant for you to learn from an apply your technique to your own projects, the only thing this shows to other people is that you know how to follow directions step by step.

Re: [UE4] Landscape Environment W.I.P. - Unreal Engine 4
If you have the £$£$ this tutorial is really freaking good http://www.thegnomonworkshop.com/store/product/1149/#.VrPVPLKLSHs If not I learnt the basics really well off following these tutorials. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2Ei9ZEC2SE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mcQmYQOqbk http://kazperstan.co.uk/tutorials-2/… -
Re: Lightmaps: tech pros and cons
I'm going to bump this thread as I've stumbled across some tutorials on making directional lightmaps and a tool for generating Self Shadowed Bump(normal) maps. SSbump Generator, a free GUI based program that can be used to generate Self-Shadowed Bump Maps. Also this thread on the Unity forums has links to example files,… -

Re: HK 416
Not sure how good they are, but SimplyMaya has a Pulse Rifle Tutorial. Gnomonology has a Next-Gen Colt 45 tutorial with Zbrush detailing and such.

Re: Books for learning 3DS Max?
Yeah, I have to second that. I tried the book thing way back when I was learning, and I honestly got a lot more mileage out of F1 and the Internet. Autodesk has their Area site that hosts a bunch of free video tutorials. If you hunt around for a few minutes, and set your search terms for Max-Beginner, you'll probably find… -
Re: Totally new. Completely lost.
Welcome to polycount! For learning 3dsmax the best help I've seen are the tutorials that are included (Main Menu > Help > Tutorials) and for more button/tool specific explanations the 3dsmax help file (F1) is really good. I know in other apps most of the tutorials and help files are garbage but they put a ton of work into… -
Re: PBR Texturing Workflows and Industry Standards
It's worth mentioning that Quixel is a company, not a tool. Our Facebook page encompasses everything Quixel develops, including the Suite (NDO, DDO, 3DO), and the Megascans service with its accompanying programs Bridge and Studio. :) If you're using DDO or NDO, I've written up a pair of comprehensive tutorials that cover…
