Re: ISUther attempt to break in to CGI world
Thank you for reply. On this weekend + on Friday night evening was working in zbrush. Worked with upper lip + upper fangs. Had many issues that i had to solve. 1. Ogre side view was ok but i did not like front view and i still do not like it. As it is based on ref images side view and front view when you look from side you… -
Re: Blog / Resume evaluation
Yeah, that needs to be text and not an image. As an image, your text is subject to compression, which can make it look bad. For an artist candidate, i would immediately call this out and unless the artwork with the resume is spectacular, would pass. Also, in the age of tablets, iphones, and millions of other devices using… -
Re: (Portfolio)cb!/Charlie Williams -Environment Artist
OK this pisses me off. Why the hell do you have artificial loading time spinny things? Not cool. After waiting for a useless color shifting wallpaper I went to the Portfolio page, which loads for few seconds for FOUR SMALL IMAGES. Then I went to the first image, again loading while there's only a bunch of tiny images. I… -
Re: "That's not how you do it!" - floating geo
Floating geometry is almost always better, but there are a couple key factors that affect your decision. Factors to Evaluate: Polycount: Floating geometry will always be cheaper.

Re: Maya Rigging Help please
First of all, good job on the rig, keep going! :) I took a look at your file, unfortunately I didn't/don't have time to take a deep look, but still, this is a rather unclean fix that solves the problem. The screenshot below shows how to fix the problem step by step: The problem is "double transformation". What happens is:… -
Re: Portfolio Review for 3D Environment and Props Artist in games.
Your garage environment is a reasonable first effort for a self-taught artist. There are a variety of different considerations to make when presenting your work, but when showcasing an environment, lighting and composition are very important. Most artists will acknowledge that reference gathering is a crucial first step to… -
Re: PIXEL ART
There is a way to discover exactly how many frames you need, but it depends on the project specifications. If that animation is for a game, you need to know the display framerate of the game. It is usually 30fps or 60fps, but let's consider it's 30fps as an example. In a 30fps game, 30 frames amount to one second of… -
Re: The Paying To Work For Free VFX Business Model
I think you confuse this with something someone else said :) Westerners are an exception here and they earn far more than the average Chinese employee because otherwise you just don't get people from the outside with production xp to come to China - they would just stay in the US/EU. Our studio, close to 1000 employees is… -
Re: How much should I charge? (1st time doing freelance)
Typically the answer to this questions goes something like this. Think of an hourly rate, figure out how long it will take to do the job, give yourself some padding and breathing room and submit that figure to them. Don't forget to calculate changes and rework and get the number of corrections and changes in writing… -
Re: M249 Chainsaw
Nothing bad on the modeling front, that all looks very solid. Design-wise, though, it's much more lacking. The first thing that strikes me is how awkwardly your main shapes and materials are arranged. It looks more like a kitbashed monstrosity than a coherent design product. Shape-wise, the gun is spread into what feels…
