"Original" ideas and variants of them
Shae Tanasychuk thread about game art cliches gave me an idea. Its quite hard for me, being immersed in a very popularity-driven society, to come up with actual original or even seldom used ideas. What original or semi original game setting/world setting/game mechanic etc ideas have you guys come up with or even just heard… -
Just a few questions (First post)
Hello everyone :) , I have been looking at the forums everyday for the past few months depressing myself with all your insane artwork and models you have created. I have however plucked up some courage to ask some fairly basic questions about 3D modeling and if I am doing it right. First I do have a few books (Not sure if… -
3D assets and animations in voxel style, estimated cost?
Hello, I am trying to figure out how much an artist or freelancer would cost and what the best way is to get what I need. I need a certain amount of models and assets, which should also be animated. In detail, I need two environment packs with fitting enemies, assets etc. These should be created exclusively for my game… -
How to mind Topology (Modo)?
Hi im new with modeling, im using Modo 801 only for some days (such noob) and know the basics. Im familiar with ZBrush (4r6) before, so topology was not as clean (easy) to maintain as you could in a regular 3D App like Modo. I have never retopologized something yet (im unsure in which way). As example, my first mesh i did… -
Re: Polygonflow - New CG Software Company
Well this all looks very interesting for sure. As said as far as I am concerned the part that peaks my interest the most isn't so much the interaction with other apps, but rather the concept of being able to write python code without having to ever deal with indentations :D This alone would make it very interesting, and… -
Re: Documentation on custom/weighted normals + texturing for environment art?
Have you seen this thread? https://polycount.com/discussion/154664/a-short-explanation-about-custom-vertex-normals-tutorial/p1 it's a bit old by now, but has some good example images and whatnot. I can't vouch for it all being relevant to current workflows however. And this one about decal texturing techniques from around… -
Re: The Bi-Monthly ENVIRONMENT ART Challenge | July - August (67)
@Donato Thank you for the compliment. I learned a lot from the last environment challenge so this one is going much smoother for me. I'm also allowing myself some artistic licence so I don't spend forever trying to replicate the concept art exactly. That was my main problem in the last challenge. :# I wouldn't worry too… -
Re: Gnomon
Hey there, I can't totally answer your loan question. I have some close friends who have loans from both Gnomon and another school, and its working out barely so far. That would be an extreme example. That said, if you work hard, you can expect 70,000+ for your first job. If that helps factor your question. Next is if… -
Re: Overlapping UVs poll
RE:FPV this is one of those things that makes sense conceptually but is applicable less often in reality. There's a number of disclaimers here: * If the weapon model will ever be seen in third person view, mirroring is often not appropriate, as mirroring artifacts (flipped text and such) will be visible from certain… -
