Sorry but Western audiences are secondary to the Japanese devs. Selling Final Fantasy outside of Japan is just bonus money. Remember Japan's modern roots come from a very very different culture than European/Christian standards. It's an old convention was being more feminine gives a male a touch of 'evilness'. Being how…
Sorry to hear about you losing your job sub_roland, that sucks :( As for your website the thing that stands out the most is that you are currently violating the following rule from the Your Portfolio Repels Jobs thread/article and it's hurting your overall presentation. Perhaps you could make your thumbnails wider, that…
Skim through break down: Article: This guy needs a girl. Comments:We are all shallow in our own way, like other have said its in our genes to like what we like. I read the whole thing and what I got from It was that this dude has struck out time after time and his last chance at a mate with him being at his 30's is to…
[ QUOTE ] They are "legal" contracts in the sense that you agree with the terms put forth, and the rules and consequences within them are not simple BS. If an EULA says that a company can revoke the liscence to use the software they are providing you with without reason or warning, then, simply put, they can, and it is not…

My goal is to make this small environment scene in the current World of Warcraft style, mainly its supposed to look like a scene that belongs in the Tiragarde Sound region in the game! I wanted the building to be a bakery, so thats why ive added some four…
Well for starters, you should assess whether or not you should actually attend a college. College can be a great source of education, but you have to remember that at the end of the day, a degree doesn't mean anything. You will only be skilled if you put the time into improving your work. There seems to be a lot of schools…
i'd second everything ZacD said - without the sister part ! while the tiling itself is far superior to your first boxy try i seen in your sketchbook it looks like you've been cast away with your previous success. don't get me wrong on this - i'll try to explain on this. with me it has always been, when i made a huge step…
I think you definitely need to learn some pbr stuff. Switching to the specular shader would not fix this, the problem is in the textures. I checked out your stuff on art station and some of your other work also suffers from this. The bb8 for example. It has metallic values on non metal areas. If you are not sure about what…
Definitely nice work so far, I think you have some of the broad strokes in place and as previously mentioned once you clean up some of the textures and lighting artifacts it will start reading really nicely. A small note on the trees the shadowed one looks quite dark which may simply be a lighting problem, but there are…
Hey @MyMomHatesGames, I've had a look at your meshes and from what I can gather is that it's not so much to do with shading problems in maya, etc etc. I believe it's the way you've setup your UVs, smoothing groups etc. Essentially, any angles that top 90 degrees you'd usually make sure those two surfaces are it's own…
