I doubt it would take you more than a few months to get as good in max as you are in maya. There's lot of discussion here about how long it takes to learn one coming from the other, so you can see what people who've already done so are saying. And then, knowing both the big programs. you have the benefit of being more…
I'm a sucker for outlandish designs that follow the rule of cool, but there's a very big spot in my heart for ultra realistic designs too. The thing is if it's a real world subject matter, such as soldiers, the world is saturated with images of soldiers, and art of soldiers that adheres closely to reality. If the "market"…
err you have 8 posts. 5 of them are replies to other threads. 3 of them are threads you started. Of those three pieces you've posted. 1 has replies. 1 shows no images, which is probably why there are no replies. 1 shows a car that's not all that hot. If you don't get replies one of two things happened. 1) You did such an…
[ QUOTE ] And this is another very picky thing that made me think, and that was on your links page you have some links that make sense and one link that may or may not get you in trouble. [/ QUOTE ] peronality is good, better than being overly PC. I think it's good for those visiting to get a feeling of who he is and how…
Yeah I think the big studios will have to rethink strategy at some point. Can't just keep making games bigger and bigger. Especially for the same price tag. If the scope goes up, something else has to go down. What is going to go down is whatever goes the easiest. If the employees are all spineless about their pay, they…
The internet may have indeed influenced some people's opinions. But that's what the free exchange of ideas is for. You also can't just assume that everyone being influenced by internet commentary are mindless followers. Arguments delivered on-line still have to provide evidence and examples. It's also dangerous to hang…
load of old shite spoilers I like tom cruise, I think he's done some good acting (vanilla sky, last ham-urai). But isn't it about time he moved on and became a scientology priest or some such thing with his life? Seriously, he was like jesus born again in this movie, and what gives with the weak (don't hurt me in real…
There's been some strong efforts in narrative and character development since '99; Deus Ex, VtM:Bloodlines and Mass Effect are the ones that spring to my mind first. Sadly all but Mass Effect have been largely ignored by the majority of the gaming public. Valve have made probably the best emotive character system I've seen…
I completely agree. There seems to be a lot more Sci-Fi that gets made with the Sci-Fi/Horror story arch in mind. Which is actually horror with some greeble-fied sci-fi props. People mix up the two genres all the time and what's worse is writers create horror, the execs strip out the gore, marketing pedals it as sci-fi…
[ QUOTE ] i can count on one hand the number of people i recognize from when it was still Tech TV. Morgan and Adam from XPlay, Kevin and Sarah on The Screensavers and Martin Sargent. [/ QUOTE ] I thought Martin Sargent was fired since Unscrewed was cancelled? Or is he on another show now? Bob, I understand that the channel…
