Thank you so much everyone for the kind words ! Actually the scene always had a 360 window with a canopy, like an observation bay sort of thing. The point of the curtain was to cover part of it and suggest that it could cover the window all along. Actually I initially wanted to suggest that the room wasn't supposed to be a…
I know that for some people (about 10-15% of women) it does, but these sorts of blanket statements can lead to people taking any instance of a woman being upset and saying (to themselves or out loud) some variant of, "Oh, we don't have to listen to her, she's just hormonal." People who want to have enough excuses to…
I would pay cash money to see Kaneda sport a handlebar mustache! I took the liberty of creating it! Yes. I know. That handlebar mustache is ungodly... I blame Japan. Actually in retrospect I think Akira vs Kaneda's handlebar mustache would be pretty epic.
Alright, I finsihed the texture. I'm not 100% happy with it and it probably needs a bit more polishing. For some reason I have yet to figure out, I feel as if the texturing isn't consistent throughout the scene, almost as if several people of varying skills had worked on it together. It probably comes down to my still…
Sukotto: I was pretty sure this is where this discussion was headed. I'm not trying to produce an animated asset for gaming, just a fully modeled character with a full PBR set of custom textures to render in Marmoset. It's a really complex model, similar to something used in Cinematics. Retropologizing some of the more…
It's a pretty big leap to go from suggesting you don't need the level of color accuracy that print artists need to dismissing it entirely as a moot point. Color accuracy matters to everybody within reason. I would never suggest that anyone spend $2500 on a monitor on the basis of its amazing color accuracy, but at the…
Hold Onto your Butts Dev Update #16 This week we also announced the VO casting of Rachael Messer in the lead role of Cpt.Winters. You might have seen her on DisneyXD or heard her performances in Black Clover, the System Shock remake and the english dub of Attack on Titan. We are still looking to fill a few roles read more…
Gaming is a big hobby of mine so eventually I wondered how games were made, after doing some research I decided that I wanted to work in the games industry. A school nearby where I lived had a new game design course, the course itself was really bad in retrospect but its where I discovered my love for creating models.
I think I got here by dumb luck. Back in 2003 I built a single level mod and tried to pass it off as a last minute art project in college. It got a good response so I decided to dedicate my senior year to building a complete game as my graphic design thesis. In retrospect, I bit off way more than I could chew building a…
I'd have to disagree, making me look like a douche anyway. By that logic you are saying that Kevin Johnstone and Emil look like douches too? The idea of using a real name is that you are made completely accountable for what you say, no hiding behind pseudonyms. It is surely more professional to use your full name, its…
