Re: [Text Books] V.S. [Video Tutorials] ??
Although I voted for books/written articles, a concise, well edited video can be just as good. Most of the videos on CTRL+Paint fit this description. Unfortunately, tutorials with production values as good as those are a rarity. +1 to the Marmoset tutorials - really clear and to the point with lots of examples. I wish the… -
Re: Stylized Cyberpunk Facade
My only issue is I wish you had more objects that didnt have straight up and down edges, add some angles here and there. Here are some example I guess. Like maybe your left corner could have a curve or something. not my art just examples..… -
Re: SciFi Support Beam
"3/4 mapping" is a made-up term for something related to the process of mirroring the UV mapping coordinates. Except here you offset the seam from the middle of the model, so only part of the surface is mirrored. The middle area is not mirrored. The UV seam then occurs off the center line. Here's an example, courtesy… -
Re: What environment helps get you a job?
Hi! I think in end the execution is what matters, less the setting. That said, I can see how the setting affects what techniques you can showcase. So when you're planning a project, you could think about what techniques you want to show/ what would you like to work on. For example: Catacombs - modular kit, photogrammetry,… -
Re: Cant scale object in 3ds max
Maybe the scale controller got changed somehow, for example by wiring it to something else in the scene or having a Scale List with a different entry being active. Check in the motion tab of the control panel (solid circle/sphere with motion lines to the left). Default is Bezier Scale. -
baking (fur) shells, turning a 3D volume into a series of stacked planes w/ alpha
Hi all, long time lurker. I looked around and found some examples of someone attempting this in Blender (in like 2007) but no recent examples. Here's where I'm at: I wanted to see if it would be possible to quickly bake something very complex (like FiberMesh fur/hair, for example) to a fur shell. The idea would be that… -
Re: My portfolio is weak, send help please
I second this, that orc ass needs saving otherwise nobody will hire you. Seriously though, you're not off to a bad start but these aren't portfolio level works as much as they are studies. Portfolio work should be comparable to the companies you aspire to work for. Avoid anything called "WIP" in your portfolio section.… -
Re: Are there any good recommended tutorials that teach you how to draw and paint concepts in Photoshop?
Hi! Perhaps you find some useful info on the Concept wiki page I think the base of many environment concepts is a 3d blockout. For example concepts could be done on top of renders of a greybox level, or the current level state to explore options. I think a crucial part when fleshing out an idea, whether 2d or 3d, is… -
Re: Why outrourcing studio doesnt give creditis to artists?
Here is my logic. Whats the point if u work for example 5 years in the company and u dont have any commercial portfolio piece to show after. And if u decide to leave or studio shuts down suddenly.......and now u wanna apply somewhere else for a job u have nothing to show after 5 years. Ofc point is knowledge and experience… -
Re: Grand Theft Auto V
I believe that it's not quite right, and by sandbox it would mean that your actions wouldn't have any permanent effect which make it impossible to continue on as usual. To take your examples: Skyrim has Open-World Sandbox and RPG elements, permanent damage. GTA has Open-World Sandbox and RPG elements, temporary damage. If…
