Re: The Monthly 'Noob' Character Challenge (01/14)
@Jeebs - My problem with it is it just feels like cheating. I can only think of 2 situations where it would be ok if a client specifically asked you to use that process or if you made the concept yourself. I just don't get what you are learning on this if you aren't painting the whole thing. It is especially off putting… -
Re: Making a tree
Holy delay batman. Sorry for the slow response to this thread. I ended up taking a few weeks of for the holidays then got slammed right as I got back. Below are the pictures for those curious. Tri count for the entire tree came to around 30k. Was a great project to learn a ton about pipeline. Here are some conclusions I… -
Re: Low/Mid End Laptop Comparison
First off, thanks a lot for the advice, it helped a lot! I've prioritized the display quality a little more, and the result was more than disillusioning: None of the displays of the laptops below 1.000 Euro was truly qualified for professional CG work. This is scary though, because now I might have to consider increasing… -
Re: Shotgun Weapon - Help Thread
Based on your creation I will asume that you are new to 3D, so don't take my critique too hard. And if you are not, it appears that you have a lot yet to learn. The wood looks like a floor texture, the barrel is blocky instead of smooth and has no wear and tear at all. Also, the wood color is off and has too much green in… -
Re: Student Loan Forgiveness of 2012
my point wasn't understood. bad formatting on my part. yes, colleges claim alot and promise things that just don't happen. thats a problem because I was led to believe I'd be making 20-30k more than what I make now. when I realized what was going on I left and took the first job i could get. not trying to sound smug or… -
Re: How to go about hiring a 2D/3D artist in Ontario
To be completely honest, you don't sound very legit at the moment (which is why you're not getting the proper responses). First off, hire a full-time Lead Artist/Art Director, with extensive experience in the industry. YOU are not an Art Director. The Art Lead/Director should be able to scope the project out for you… -
Re: Tell me about modelling for film
I don't work in feature film production but in visualization - but from what I hear from friends that do the process is almost the same. Well... you still have to depending on what you do. I rarely have to count single polygons but two weeks ago I was one of the lucky sods who had to figure out how to make a few square… -
Re: Cross Polarized Photography resources
i finally got a cross polarized setup working. i had a bunch of gear already, but I invested another $300 to get it setup. i'm using one camera, a nikon d810 with a nikon 105mm macro lenes along with a nikon sb700 flash and a nikon sb900 flash. i already had this gear so the cost to get the polarized setup wasn't all that… -
Re: Another "Help!" thread!
I didnt say anything about you making enemy ZacD, I like your crits and looking forward to have you crit on my work so I can fine-tune my own stuff. Your comments so far I've read are legit and give the original poster more to do on his character, or a scene. I apologyze if you took any of my post as an offence. But ya I… -
