How do YOU give feedback?
I haven't posted anything in a while so here's something I've wondered about the way people give feedback. So you see someone's work and you comment on it.

How in the world should I do this..?
Hello, I've been working on a character from a design by Peter de Seve, the Duchess of Whimsy, and I really have no idea how I should do the plume thingy on the top of her head. I figured I would just do it in Zbrush then bring it into Maya but that was before I learnt about the need to retopologize, and considering I… -

How should I resolve this geometry?
How should I resolve this geometry to avoid pinching after smoothing? I can't seem to figiure out where should I put additional edge loops without ruining the shape of the object.

How do you guys approach concept art?
I have a question and it would be great if some senior artists in the industry could show me how they work and their opinion on this subject. For example, if you get a concept art of a control room from the 80s with many props like radio, computer, control panel, etc. Are you gonna do research and reference exactly the… -
Texture painting - How fo I change my techniques for normal maps?
Hi all. Sorry My first post is another 'asker.' Anyway I'm Snacuum and although I'd rather be in design I'm working on my art skills.
