Re: Portfolio Progress
Well, I know this is still a work in progress so don't take this to hard, but this may be one of the poorest portfolio layouts I've seen. When I first opened the URL, that loading screen you have took about 20 seconds to complete. I wasn't sure what was happening or what to do. Maybe it was my computer, or the hosting… -
Re: Movies / Documentaries Every Artist must watch
Highly recommend this 4-disc series (maybe provided free by your local library): http://www.thegreatcourses.com/courses/understanding-greek-and-roman-technology-from-catapult-to-the-pantheon.html More than a documentary that can by-pass a lot of back info, this chapter divided lectures cover sequentially and in-depth… -
Re: Portfolio and career advice.
Hey Justin! I will not give you specific portfolio critics about your environment work because I'm sure a prop/enviro artist would do a much better job than me at this. I will say however that you should remove the character art work from your folio. Overall it's a bad idea to show this kind of work if you aren't going to… -
Re: Cant Delete
Looks like my old stuff! haha. What you should do is start with the basics, dont rush ahead to all this stuff, as tempting as it may be. if you're learning to model, you should frequent these forums, and always ask questions. 3Dtotal.com also has abunch of great tutorials as well. Again, i think this bares repeating, start… -
Re: [UE4] [WIP] Sci-Fi Generator Room
get rid of all that hazard striping. its super cliche and the placement of it right now does not make sense at all. I have never seen a hazard striped railing in my life. If you wanted to use it realistically, at the lip of the stairs would make more sense. right now, I think this scene has the common problem of not using… -
Re: Mobile Asset and Optimization. Tips Please
I'm constantly shocked at how much it's possible to push current smart phones (up to the last four-five years eg. S3 and above). In our game my characters are around 6k tris and perhaps most surprisingly (for me) was it's not the GPU that will bottleneck first but the CPU when it has to move those verts on a skinned mesh… -
Re: Modeling and texturing for games.
1. Everything gets triangulated at runtime if you manually tessellate it or not. 2. Yes, the more you can fit on a texture sheet the better, unless your compromising the quality. Less texture sheets = less draw calls. I tend to model things as they are in real life. If they have plenty of separate pieces in real life, then… -
Re: Question about 3D environment ideas
hey ryandec, typically, unless i'm developing an enviro for my own personal projects (or something work related), i will always use someone else's concept work. why? because 1) i have a very specific, limited style of drawing, and 2) i'm looking for variety in my work. i don't get paid to do concept art AND environments,… -
Re: [Portfolio pieces] Looking for feedback
Everythings looking good so far! The docks enviro is looking good, just yeah, tone down the glow a bit and add some variation to the windows...just have like one or two unlit, here and there... The pres shot for the gun is ok... I wouldn’t go with the gradient background. What I try to do is 'theme' the background to my… -
Re: Honest opinions about work to be on portfolio and skill level
Right now, the chick looks like a wet dream and isnt even textures. The renering is bad, with grey and black shadows. The enviroments are to simple and bland. The stylalistic approach in the pirate haven needs to be pushed further with the textures as again, they are to simple. The Sky High looks like it was made in the…
