I was in an accident last November that required my head stapled shut. I fell on some concrete in an old barn in Pennsylvania and I had to be rushed to the hospital. I blacked out for nearly five hours. My concussion was very severe, to the point where my driving privileges were revoked and I was essentially bedridden. In…
Welcome one and all to the 98th edition of the Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge for the months of September and October! This challenge is a way for real-time 3D artists to test their skills and create a piece of work based on concepts provided. It's open to those of all skill levels and we do our best to provide…
Typically you select your artists by interviewing the ones you think will artistically and personally fit best. So you're throw a bit of a curve having people haphazardly grouped together. It does happen, its pretty crappy when it does tho... Don't be afraid to let the harsh crits fly, if they really want to make in this…
Well this is stressful for sure. As of recently the UE Marketplace hasn't been quite as healthy as it used to be, as it has no more human moderation from Epic on flagged comments and reviews - meaning that harassement and some shady practices happen. So migrating to a new platform could mean either further…
Wow I finally create a big wave of spam... sorry... X_X @ Master_v12 : I'm in Japan now, life is not easy... I don't have pay job... I have job but... But I'm happy... Finally time is rare, to have a familly life add stress for any reason, end of free time, etc... But I really like my new life with my familly. This…
I dont think spending 44k ( and some ), 2 years of your life and moving to Dallas is going to help you too much in your goal of getting into the industry. I also think JK might have a good point about age gap. That could be stressful in itself. As long as you have a modicom of talent and brains, all aspects of CG can be…

Thanks for that! The most problematic matcaps have been attached. I have found that framing a subtool with the matcap several times causes a crash; multiple movements (zoom, rotate mostly). My only solution has been to have a ZBrush inclusive matcap on the subtools, do my posing/positioning (not much posing with skulls)…
If it's an emergency then it's probably freaking way too late already. It's not like you had to type a cv in a night for the next morning or get a haircut because you look messy. You're supposed to produce art, no one does great and beautiful thing in "emergency". No one does beautiful thing nor impress people because they…
Bbob, teriyaki, thanks a ton for the replies. I probably will revisit that piece -- but actually because, personally, I don't really like anything about it. I've been trying to stick to only updating this thread when I have (a lot of) art to show. But just this once I'm going to give in and make this useless blog style…
