Re: First website.
you don't make it clear what this site is ... is it a personal showcase for your evolving work, intended to be part of a community of shared knowledge and techniques (eg, poopinmymouth's or rick stirling's sites) ... or is it a committed online portfolio? If the latter, a couple of things : if this is a portfolio site, i'd… -
Re: Nuclear Dawn...?
Ya. These days I read "Total Conversion" as "dead before the first release". People want those things to be more and more complete at the first release but seem to forget that they need just as much work as a full game so they keep working until long after the game is declared "dead". Most just decide they won't continue… -
Re: For the attention of Rorshach and Dukester...
You are making me want Scotch and I have none so I guess its time for a Saturday morning trip to the liquor store tomorrow. "The bottle is the last of six which have been flown over to the airport. They have been bought by Sky Connection, which operates the duty free shop in the airport. Baker Salleh, chief executive of… -
Re: Environment art for next gen. console games?
I think you answered your own question when you mentioned that poly counts etc will vary greatly on next-gen consoles. Some titles will showcase detailed, pixel-shader laden artwork, others will get by nicely without any such advanced tech, and plenty of others will split the difference by using pixel shaders but won't put… -
Re: Art Test
I think the guy's brought up some good points retleks, that maybe you should pay some attention to. The work on your site is stronger than the screenshot you provided, but honestly there are some areas that you could tweak on this character. Also it's good to have the attitude of "I find a certain amount of pleasure in… -
Re: [WIP] Sekiro Fan art - Prop / Environment - Rendered 3ds Max, Corona
Hey everyone, got an update here on this scene. I finished the last of the modeling work that I wanted to do so now I'm looking at what I need to do to get all the rest of the UV and material work done so I can get this over the finish line. There are a couple of meshes that I'll still send through Zbrush, but overall I'm… -
Re: Is it okay to have weapons as part of portfolio of 3d environment artist?
In the context of your other threads and current portfolio I would advise against it. I would recommend spending your time and effort on a environmental hero piece that supported your environmental work. The hero piece becomes the focal point and direction for lighting, composition, layout, set dressing etc. Think: -… -
Re: Looking for ideas on how I can improve environment art
Welcome to Polycount! A couple things. You posted in General Discussion, but that's for talking about other people's work. So I moved your topic to 3D Art Showcase & Critiques. Second thing. If you would like critiques, embed your work here on Polycount. Don't make us click a link to see your stuff, that stops lots of… -
Re: Sketchbook: Wobyen
So, I took a lot of inspiration from the props wiki here as well, and decided to start with something rather simple for the first normal map/low poly piece I'm doing. The video tutorials in there were great and centered around knives, so I am doing something similar for my first serious shot at this. I modeled the high… -
Re: Adam Vickerstaff show reel - needs feedback please
Overall, videos are nice for displaying movement, but not that great for still images. If you're just trying to showcase your work, then a video is fine, but for actually showing your work to potential employers a quality still portfolio will be much better. On the opening & closing cards, I'd enlarge your name & contact…
