Re: AI and future of 3d artists
In my experience, Ai tools make sense to use as a shortcut for small bits of menial work. As long as the task is well-defined with plenty of decent-quality source material for the model to pull from. And only if I am able to filter the output using my own specific subject-matter expertise. It's great at handling the… -

Re: Prometheus
I love love LOVE how Prometheus still has that 70's-80's sci fi movie x factor. I don't know what it is but i feel like i'm watching a trailer for an 80's movie but with better cameras and hair.

Re: modeling TV
I found what looks like the same model TV: 1982 Sony Trinitron KV-1913 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NU6oAKfZRM I think it would help to not use pure black for the plastic, as you're losing some of that 80's "charm" in the look of the plastic parts.
