Re: [WIP] Major Motoko Kusanagi - Ghost in the Shell 1995
So I did the corrections and thank god for Blender’s multires system. I didn’t even have to go to Zbrush to slightly inflate the pectoralis area and the shoulders. As I’m struggling for the hard surface elements (the sort of visor that she has in the film), I decided to give myself some slack and go with P5201 hair style.… -
Re: Need new PC - Workstation recommendations?
If you want to go with a branded workstation then the HP Z series should be a safe bet. I guess you are aware that this series has been around for a few years now so you are not exactly buying bleeding edge tech. Also workstations usually contain a good deal of custom parts which would make replacements expensive or… -
Re: Adobe giving away CS 2 for free
^^ THIS ^^ It's still online as of 11pm EST. No notice of how it's for registered users only. Just "become a Creative Cloud member" advertisement, download links, and serial numbers. That's it. And putting the old school system requirements of XP and PPC makes it seem like they're so antique that you absolutely have to… -
Re: International 2014 - Postmortem
@Helenek Exactly, a specific digital item is assigned to a specific card with a number on it. Print a barcode on that card and scanning it will allow you to uniquely identify it. Then you set up a system whereby if it's scanned by the items creator, it gets tagged in the system as the 'upgraded' version of the item that… -
Re: Substance painter or designer?
The names are kind of confusing and not really self-explanatory. I would sum it up as follows: - In Designer, you design dynamic materials through a node based system, and you can apply them to regions of a model through an ID map. Meaning that Designer is not just a material creation tool - it can very well be used to… -
Re: [UDK] Sci-Fi Cathedral WIP
Oooookay here's an update. Yes I know I'm slow. :/ I was thinking to make it modular, I guess that's a good way to go since it's such a big scene and many parts can be used multiple times? I also alinged everything to a grid so it'll be easy to place it exactly like it once I get to UDK. Problem with that is, since I'm… -
Re: Creating a Winning Game Industry Art Portfolio
yeah we should know about this before choosing schools, but at the same time it's a really weird system, If i had that knowledge back then I would still basically have to choose between actually learning what i should but have a hard time getting visas or I could choose the option where I can get a visa but instead maybe… -
Re: To teach the childerlings
Don't condemn public school either, though. I was went through that gauntlet myself. As painful as it was, a lot of who I am came out of that system - trial by fire as it were. There are benefits on both sides - people learn primarily through pain and the social interaction i was subjected to until i dropped out at 17 was… -
Re: thoughts on Linux?
I used xubuntu for about a year. It became a hassle, as there were a lot of things that didnt run like photoshop or zbrush so I would have to run windows in a virtual machine or dual boot. Then there were plugins for stuff that were windows only. Then you could never write to the root user without giving a password, and it… -
Re: Varnadgray (Timespinner fanart)
Been a few days since I worked on this. Today: Tuuuubes. I tried using curves to model the tubes, but trying to replicate the coils and loops from the sprite was proving to be rather challenging. Instead, I made a set of smaller curves of various shapes and then used a particle system to distribute it around the mesh. In…
