Of course... come'on now :) Personally, I draw all the time. And I sculpt with Chavant too in my spare time. This wasn't an argument against 2d... that's just ridiculous. You should give me the benefit of the doubt and assume I'm not just guessing what's best, but I tried it and I know. And mind you, I'm not making a…
It's a global economy so if there's an artist out there who can do better work for less then it only makes sense to go with them. Patriotism and idealistic notions of fostering growth don't even factor into the equation. There are actually some really good outsourcing studios out there. I've gotten models back where I…
"PBR" is more of a concept than a specific technique. Different software and engines implement PBR differently. The *term* is used more commonly in games/realtime applications, simply because for so long, creating something physically accurate in realtime wasn't feasible due to tech hardware limitations. But software for…
Scene 14 - The Freight Column This project is trickier than it seems because, at the moment, Reallusion has not included the "drop shadow" feature in iClone6, so I cannot put props over a background image and project simulated shadows over this background. So I should put a floor prop that received the shadows and merged…
@pior hmmmm, this i'm not sure of. I mean i access a lot of files and explorer and such loads really quickly even with my downloads folder cause that has TONS in it but i don't know exactly if it's faster than 7. I don't keep files on my SSD only programs so it would probably be instant if i did XD. I have 4 hard drives…
A bit of a tangent: When I see stuff like that, I cant help but feel a bit aggravated by it. It generally reads as one big confirmation bias, one that seeks to create this narrative meant to dismantle any perceived "patriarchy" found in this medium. The genres and the platforms matter. Specifics matter. Age and gender are…
Humm... interesting... I wonder if you can drop something in the second Additional Bump channel and it will apply it to the normal map. Or if you can use a regular B/W bump and bake to a normal map and have it convert. Not that there aren't more efficient less lossy ways of doing it but just curious. Anywho... Render…
I saw the film last night. -Huge Spoiler Alert- I'd like to discuss the ending a bit. They changed it up for the movie, and at first it struck me as a rather ingenious solution that they had come up with. A major point in the book is that the way to prevent war is to externalize human aggression. If everyone is pointing…
oddly this question was one of the most asked on this years Trojan Horse Festival, there should be a few takes on it in THUTV that said, the answer is usually pretty simple. Get better. There have been questions like "how do i create more demand in portugal" and the question is pretty silly in itself. You got the internet,…
Heh... Little backstory for the environment. Vertical farm environment =========================== Background These skyscrapers are created in an urban area in the near future to add automated farming to cities. Arable land has been vastly reduced, and environmental conditions are no longer conducive to healthy plant…
