Re: Camera for taking references to sell them online
It all depends. What equipment do you currently have? What's the overall sales goals? The best gear to start with is the gear you already have. If you already own a phone with a decent camera you can use it to put together a pack to get a feel for the amount of work and cost involved in producing this type of content. From… -
Re: How to avoid using photos in texturing?
"It's the end result that matters" is what I learnt in school. Staying away from photos for <insert random stupid reason here> is silly. Like perna says: why handicap yourself? Use whatever you have to use in order to achieve the best end-result. But yea, you shouldn't just take a photo, toss an adjustment layer on it and… -
Re: are Tris the devil?
It's possibly that what your instructor is trying to teach you is topology control. That is to say, you should control your model's topology - it should not control you. In the long run, there isn't anything inherently cancerous about triangles. But I would suggest that for now you should stick to quads. It's a handicap… -
Re: Heroes Thread
yeah I was also really annoyed with the whole Arthur Petrelli travelling through time to get the light from Hiro, it didnt make any sense. If Arthur could do that then as soon as he knew about claire being the catalyst he could have just teleported to her and zapped the light from her without any need for all this other… -
Re: Sniper Rifle
It's not your design but you did choose it, so in a sense you do have to own the concept in that right, it's not really a great reason to excuse that kind of thing. You obviously didn't waste your time, you've crafted a nice model from a technical standpoint and any time anyone does that you'll always walk away with more… -
Re: Music creation programs
Zephir: yeah, Protools and its handicapped midi-functionality are really awesome. I love how it uses a far less common plugin-format, as well, so that often you'll be waiting for ages untill a developer ports his synth or effect to it... if they do at all. Seriously, how could you put it like that? "If you have the money,… -
I need Artists to help me improve.
I am an artist that has been trying to work on his craft. I have a LOT of art books on my shelf over various subjects. I see all of your fantastic pieces of work and would LOVE to attain this level of artistry. I feel if I am not working on something practical that it is not worth working on. So for example, if I am… -
Mouse with pressure sensitivity
Hello everyone ! Does anyone know if there is mouse with pressure sensitivity for sculpting for example ? You probably wonder : "why using this when there are Wacom tablets ?" For the little story, I have a very bad vision, it's a visual handicap. When I work, I use the windows magnifying glass. With this, I can work… -
Re: Fictitious Game Fantasy Spear Low Poly...sorta
Higher res pics would help. The pinching around the top two diamond shaped holes looks seems to be from the lack of any supporting loops around the diamonds on the flat spearhead sides. Generally speaking the edges on your high poly look quite sharp, which might give you problems when you bake the normal map. Usually… -
Re: Creative Zen Touch
I have a Nomad Jukebox Zen 20g I bought through EA's internal want ad's for about half price. I got it so cheap because the backlight was failing (it works on a rare occasion, if at all). The thing had at least two previous owners, so except for this small handicap, it has proven extremely rugged. I use it in my car as my…
