Re: I am looking for some suggestions as to how to continue my study of 3d design
Yeah, I'm with Brian on this one fer sure. You've gotta show some of your art, especially since you've been studying since 2013. 4 years is essentially the amount of time people spend at a University. I know there's the saying that "practice makes perfect", but you can spend years practicing. But if you're not practicing,… -
Re: Joo Son Rustic Alley Environment
Myazaki took a lot of inspiration from Visby, Gotland in Sweden when making Kiki, but it also shows in a lot of his other work. Might find some decent reference for a rustic town: https://www.google.se/search?q=gotland+visby&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=TtVPU7HtLsf8ygPjpYC4Aw&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ&biw=1042&bih=843… -
Re: Answered: Can't load geometry - new user
Thanks for the quick reply. I've tried OBJ files exported from ZBrush and OBJ and FBX 2013 from Modo. I typically work with fairly high resolution models so ideally I'd like to work with this sort of thing, but to test I did try to load up a simple model with a few hundred polygons. Everything I tried had the same result.… -
Re: Stop Legalised Theft of Copyrighted Works Petition (UK)
As far as I'm aware, this is simply meant to bring the copyright legislation closer to what it is like in the rest of the world. From what I understand, the copyright laws are extremely strict in the UK. Freakonomics have a very interesting show about this particular… -
Re: Ground Branch, will this game revive the tactical squad based genre?
Yea, I bought takedown too, unfortunatly it was a letdown due to some basic game design flaw and an AI extremely dumb. The maps are huge for just a 5 v 5, You end up just running around until you stumble on someone, and well you don't really have a lot of interaction with the evironment either. What I liked with Ground… -
Re: Creating a reel from scratch, what wows employers?
Whatever keeps your art simple to view. If you use Tumblr or Blogspot to host your portfolio, don't put one piece of art per post. Keep it all on one page, like a real portfolio. Check my "Your Portfolio Repels Jobs" article: http://www.jonjones.com/2005/10/07/your-portfolio-repels-jobs/ It still holds up today, but last… -
Re: General Triplescar
Thanks for the info dirigible, will try one more time when I get some free time. I am using 2013 as well. As far as the pants it seems like you mirror the wrinkles which will make it look way to repetitive. Its better to get to the point of the wrinkles and do the wrinkles for each side in this case leg individually. But… -
Re: Where to begin?
Thanks for your input, guys (and girls?) Just one more question. With my schooling, I got the Autodesk Entertainment Creation Suite, Ultimate 2013. (Check link for included software.) Obviously I'm not at the 3D portion in my school. I won't be until next month and that's only 3D Foundations. Two months after that is when… -
Re: Smoothing group normal map error
which 3dsmax version are you using? xoliul only supports up to 2012 as autodesk messed with the tangents in later versions. That said, not sure about versions 2013+, but below the max renderer isn't synced with the viewport to preview the normalmaps. Yeah awesome, right? So you have no chance to make it look good inside… -
Re: Hard Surface Tank - Need Feedback Please
This is an APC, not a tank. (Looks like a modified M-113.) It may seem a minor detail, but most of those looking for an artist would know the difference. The paint overall should be matte - i.e. there should be no specular - except where it has worn off, exposing the bare metal beneath. The handholds on the skirt don't…
