1. Small and well executed is much, much better than larger but weak. I've seen people hired based on an environment that's one corner of a bedroom. 2. I assure you, not everything had been done. In an environment art portfolio showing a subject matter we haven't seen many times before isn't necessary, but it's certainly a…
Jeremy-S: I took a quick look at your website and I think you could finish out a project with this, I would hesitate to say that if you were trying to rebuild texas in Unreal :) I did do a couple of initial test with DX shaders in max 2012, I had to revert to Direct 3d for the 3 point shader, and when using the 3point the…
Based on your creation I will asume that you are new to 3D, so don't take my critique too hard. And if you are not, it appears that you have a lot yet to learn. The wood looks like a floor texture, the barrel is blocky instead of smooth and has no wear and tear at all. Also, the wood color is off and has too much green in…
It is several python scripts that execute the tools that already exists saved inside the .blend as text file. And the compositor include a node setup to generate a grayscale from the baked maps. The script does an Union boolean to create an envelop of the mesh and remove every intersections this way you get the most…
Yeah this is exactly the sort of practice you're after at this point. Some tips: -When starting a gesture drawing make an action line. This is a single line that follows the flow of the subjects body and will give you a strong, immediate feel for the pose you're about to draw as well as a guide to follow. Take a look at…
Concepts are easy to come by: Artstation Pintrest conceptartworld.com I highly suggest starting a Pintrest account, you should be gathering everything and anything you come across and saving for later use/reference/inspiration. I've already amounted a huge library of stuff and I've only been doing this for the last year…
Just to leave that one to rest (not going into the details about how it's done because that's besides the point and would lead to further splitting of hairs) : At the end of the day there's really no point lamenting about one app going the way of the dodo or not since us users can't control that. People just need to stop…
Thanks for the comments everyone! MoP - Aww thanks baby <3 Massbot - Thanks mang! $inz - Lulz, thanks for the words of encouragement but I'm still up till 6am every night... derp. I'm moving back to WA at the end of the month though, hopefully I'll be able to work a sleep schedule change into that overall life change.…
I can't fully understand the dialogue but just from his body language, I feel like we've all had those moments while working on an animation :) Overall the biggest thing that sticks out to me is that I can see where your keys are. Most of the actions with the body will move and then when they are done moving, stop and stay…
Heya, Is there at all a way to force AA when viewing the Unreal 3 editor? I've tried forcing it on ut3.exe via the nVidia control panel, but that's not working. I've been resizing my images to half-resolution in the mean, which I don't like doing. But the high-res ones are so jaggy they aren't worth showing. What about…
