I'm digging the concepts they have a nice balance of detail and rest in them. Looking really nice so far I would say to look at your Cat sculpt again regarding the extra arms. I still need to work on my own anatomy a lot so can't point out specifics but they feel more stuck on. Would the second set need shoulder blades…
Oxynary said it first. Large, muscle bound male characters are a male power fantasy. It does not count as objectification of men. Has a video game ever even had a nude male character in it? I know that StarBreeze Studios Escape from Butcher Bay had nude characters in it at one point, before the censors got to it. We…
To the guy's credit, there are about a million different variants of the AK-47 all casually referred to as 'the AK-47'. The gun fires a 7.62 mm round so the clip, barrel, and bore need to be a bit thicker. (Looking into the clip is pretty scary since the actual M43 round is about twice the diameter of what's in there).…
I don't know anything about your reltionship with particular client, but if you made promise do your best to keep it. If it's impossible, try talking to your client about extending deadline a bit. If I were one doing the hiring last thing I'd want is someone blowing deadline OR receiving assets that are getting…
Definetly a little extend of the term "game ready". Most important is to clean up the topology of unneeded loops. You could easily safe 2/3 of the polys. That is something extremely important in game development. Just say it is a texture practice and don´t claim it´s "game ready". The texture is fine but is lacking a…
The social aspect of school shouldn't be overlooked - often times you will make friendships with fellow students that last throughout your career. They often become your extended family. Also, make sure you get a solid foundation in *art* : drawing, painting, sculpture, anatomy. 3D programs are just another tool, and there…
Clearly whoever designed that bike wasn't a guy ;P (my testicles say ouch). Could you post more angles of your bike? The OC looks like it has switches in the front, one of them has a dial for speed, and both of them, the handles are more closer and 'bent' for proper gripping. They also bent more the front wheel and the…
Fucking lol! ROFL! (you sure seem to know a lot of the codes though.) Yes. Meet a few, but always ALWAYS meet in a public space in a way that's easy to excuse your way out of. Lunchtime works well because you can always use "oh shit work called" as an excuse to duck out early if you need to. I normally try to set up a…
yup. At least every decent engine That's how most bark textures are done. They tile more on the vertical than the horizontal, so sometimes bark will be on the left half of the texture (tiling vertically, but not horizontally) and leaf card textures will be on the right. Then the trunk is unwrapped into the left half of the…
Yes, extending UVs past the 0-1 range is acceptable for games. The images you show seem like they'd work fine. Lofting a spline and generating UVs like that is a good workflow for models like racetracks. One thing to be aware of is that some games use compressed formats for models where the "range" of the UV-space is…
