Re: Detailing hard-surface
"Just copying some reference or adding detail mindlessly hoping that somehow magic happens won't accomplish the goal." yet 90% of the time that's exactly what we get... I grew up with a regime of art direction where we applied pockets of focused, purposeful detail and left space for the eye to rest. judicious use of detail… -
Re: Used Games
You forgot to mention that depending on the service (steam/psn/xbl/etc.) the games can be locked to your system, so if the system fails you lose all your games. Nintendo does this. And from the sounds of it psn+ will lock them to your account, meaning if you stop paying for the service any games you've downloaded will stop… -
Re: Gears of War 3 - Environment Art
Thanks for the comments folks. Re; The concrete rail / step set - I work with a collection of elements that can be combined in different arrangements. I do this in general, its also good way to create manageable chunks for UVing. I did a less fancy piece like this in the Gear2 Hospital set and ended up using the trim set… -

Re: Normal map Bake artifacts? (Warning 9 Screenshots)
It's baking the Z fighting. Most of the green you are seeing is the underside of the faces being baked. Increase the size of your LP so that the Z fighting stops or increase the Bias value to the same effect. Only increase the bias in small amounts, as it's measured in Blender units and a value of 1 will tell Blender to… -
Re: Magicka
You really have no idea of how wrong you are about that :P Racism is prevalent in Scandinavia. Sweden especially has been picked out as one of the worse places for it. So I don't think it's about them not knowing what racism is, I think it's about them choosing not to mix race into this at all, they simply don't think so… -
Re: Sketchbook: JST - Character and Asset Artist
So this is my current progress on my 'sculptor' Character. For context, He's a support character in a game I want to start working on soon. In my game there will be a rare skill/ability called Sculpting. This is where you can control the building blocks of materials and change them into something else. You could say it's… -
Re: Glock 18
Why do you have a brown diffuse? Isn't the gun black? I would do something more in this direction. Ofc this textures are far from good. They are actually pretty retarded, but still. And oh, it dosn't make any sense to have shading in you textures. Like the slide. Why is it light on top? As i said, obviously this is a bit… -
Re: Opera..
i used to really like IE 5 and 6, because i had the interface just the way i liked it, but when i tried Opera and Firefox, and got interested in webdesign (ie. Web-standards) and spyware was piling up on my pc (and i couldn't stop it most of the time) i couldn't go back. Firefox also cathers to my addiction to thinkering… -
Really struggling with foundational and observational aspects and applying that to 3d space
So, I've been doing some digging over the last few weeks and I will say I've currently moved more off the game stuff to product viz maybe even looking into archviz but I'm still bouncing around a few things. But i thought i'd try and get some advice here as you're a great bunch that really know your shiz. Anyway I've…
