Cholden's reference image is a good one. I'd also suggest looking at some references of feathers and the way they Wings are one of the most brutalised structures in all of art. Almost nobody knows how to do them right. General things to know about wings: - The bone structure is similar to that of an arm (as cholden said) -…
I dunno about the kindness thing. The whole data duplication thing is a deep rooted property of computers anyways, I don't think there is any way to prevent it really... I think we all agree that music is too expensive compared to what goes to artists. Anyone knows the average ratio going to the devs for games? That's the…
Here's a reply I wrote on another site: I realize I am likely blowing the dedicated server issue way out of proportion. I cannot help feel, though, that these sort of decisions are the calm before the storm. I like to think that just once in a while companies (game companies specifically) are run by people who are…
Hello everyone. Few days ago, I opened this thread https://polycount.com/discussion/comment/2734111#Comment_2734111 concerning the basic pipeline to follow when you want to make a game asset.

Asking for feedback is sensible - the downside is that occasionally I have some free time to give it ;) I don't see any glaring technical problems with your work. There are two main things you need to improve on from my perspective (its been 5 years since I was last hiring artists at a first party studio so might be a bit…
I'm not dismissing any work.. i just said i don't like that kind of blurry drawings, i hate them beacuse i don't appreciate a shit hehe. It's a matter of tastes, i just have my preferences :) , heh open mind you say... why do you play some games and not others? it's the same. TF2 concepts are very detailed, not blurry...…
Wow, thank you very much guys, I'm blown away:) First and foremost a little something I'm sorry I didn't make clear earlier. The scene is "supposed" to be for mobile platforms but it's not actually running on UDK mobile. With some minor simplifications I think I could make it run on Mobile but with the price of extra…
You just have a background check.(have to be 18 for a rifle) and 21 for a handgun. Some things such as fully automatic rifles are much much more difficult to obtain and you must have a class III FFL ircc. They can think whatever.
