Stealing this idea from SomethingAwful, but I think it's pretty cool to hear about peoples upbringing. My dad is so cool. Sometimes I wish he'd given me more life instructions, but he gave me so much emotional support I can't really fault him. Some of my fond memories: He would put me in a wheelbarrow full of leaves as a…
While I do think that improving quality of work will always help every artist, I think right now something that could help with your website is just organization. Maybe just organize your work into Web & UI, Games, Illustration, & 3d? There's just a good amount happening here and it feels a bit overwhelming honestly. And…
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…
Yeah Building from the base looks like a good way to begin. It's not necessarily the way to start. If time is your limiting factor then it really isn't possible to give you a fail safe rule because no one can judge what works best for you. All anyone can do is give you guidelines as to what works for them. Would it be…

I started learning blender and such in order to make my own custom maps. For starters i want to at least import some Final Fantasy models into the Workshop Tools. It was released fairly recent, and so even the Valve wiki is blank, on how to import models. I have a smd file + 3 texture pngs + rda (animation) file. I…
Great progress guys! It's nice to see others sticking more to the reference! I felt asymmetry could have definitely helped making the result more interesting, but I got lazy. I have so many questions about your work :) @PaulJChris How do you manage many objects in a scene? I feel overwhelmed when using blender and decided…
It's a very good sart, I'd say. It's mostly accurate, except for some details. Here are some of the things I think should be revised: 1. Rear sight base. It's a bit weirdly modeled - mainly, the sight elevation slope doesn't look right. Also, you are missing the gas tube locking lever. Here are some ref pictures that…
