You might be buying a literal brick looking at some of those prices you mentioned. At least from what I've been seeing, they look too good to be true, even for refurbished models (4090 for $900?). So unless you know the seller or why they are so cheap, you are right to be cautious, not just in case of the 5000 ones. Edit:…
There's plenty of good journalism out there, and it's easy to find. People just don't give a shit. They let confirmation bias control what news they consume and dismiss information they don't like. Look at how quickly american conservatives turned on Fox News when they began ridiculing Trump. A huge part of his appeal has…
Hey everyone, My name is Ben Strasser, I've been kicking around these forums for a couple of months now. I've recently graduated from my program and I am looking for critique on my couple of pieces and content on my site. I'm hoping to use the summer to build a strong enough portfolio to land a job of some kind in the…
Overall, I gotta say that I don't enjoy working in this industry as much as I used to. Lemme explain a bit! I've had 4 jobs since I left uni 3 and a half years ago, leaving each time of my own accord. I've constantly been searching for that dream project, and I've now come to realise that more than likely, you're never…
I will absolutely look into doing clear-coat when I try to optimize this down. Thanks for the replies! I am back with an update. I spent most of yesterday refactoring my previous result, with a refocus on pushing PBR and trusting it over curating a certain look. I also dug an old reflector out of the garage and studied it,…
Hey all what's crackin, haven't posted in a long while and thought I should get back in to the habit.

Hi Everyone, Making a sketchbook to record my progress, improve and hopefully help others aswell. Focusing a lot on anatomy and character art. Heres some anatomy sculpts I've been working on. I want to make sure I have the basics down before I start refining. Thanks for reading :) :poly122: Male anatomy:
@pior Also didn't have a drawing tablet at the time, actually still don't but currently looking at XPen's Artist 12 for what I want to do plus within budget of what is affordable. As for using AD to sketch with, well once I became comfortable dealing with each layer - masked curve grouping and various output settings this…
I have never once needed a resume for doing manual labor. Find some local businesses (some are based out of people's homes). Don't be hesitant to just shoot people emails (though a lot of the older generation prefer a call, all you have to do is ask if they're looking for any more labor). Many local businesses just want…
