Hey guys (or girls, whatever you are)! I am LOVING this webpage. I got the corporate account for my indie team and I cannot tell you how much progress we've made in the past 3 days since we signed up. There have been some issues, but your chat support fixed them and also credited us for our troubles. We could not be…
Learning to draw is like learning to make 3D art, there's an extremely wide area of expertise involved, so just because you "can't draw everything" that doesn't automatically mean you're bad at drawing. Just as little as "not being able" to rig or animate automatically makes you bad at 3D art when your focus is on VFX or…
pretty awesome, but also stressful and a bit scary. The scary part was moving to London on my own and finding an apartment (turned out more to be a small room) in just three days before turning up for work. And then struggling to get a bank account in the UK, worrying how to cash my first paycheck so I could pay rent. Job…
The game runs great already, congrats! Loving the animations of the bad guys. It's sleek and stylish all around, and the VFX are great ! I'll go ahead and point at the elephant in the room tho : I really, *really* wish the game view was first person. I understand that there is a desire to show the cool player character art…
Not sure how many of these Australian games studios are going but might be worth looking into. Its odd that Australia does not have a bigger games industry as its such a fantastic place to live. Is it hard for non Australian's to get working Visa's in the games industry? Also what would you say is the best place to study…
I think your portfolio is quite decent, and your competition isn't necessarily in the same location as you are or plan to apply to, so continue to add to the portfolio and scout out studios nearby for positions. Also consider other applications for 3D art such as architecture visualization, tv animation, vfx and and…
Kwramm - yeah i mainly do mobile stuff these days, I do the realistic stuff as a hobby mainly, so its slightly cartoony type stuff . I think these days it nuts for me to do realistic work it takes so much longer, but I get the same money as for more cartoony stuff. It's a no brainer really. I get what you are saying about…
Regarding commercial work in Triple A studios, keep in mind Blender is free to use and doesn't even need to be installed on the computer. Blender is technically the only 3D package you can use absolutely anywhere. You don't even have to ask IT for the admin rights, all you have to do is download the small zip and you're…
Or 47K if you have the qualifications :) if not the lucky applicant can study for free, CPAD, MA, MRes, PhD and so on. We also have a research-lab (G+VERL) that starts in September, so there is plenty of scope for research. We are in a really healthy area sandwiched between Cambridge and London which both have a strong…
there are trials for them out there, try them out and see if they suit your personal workflow. :) Both could be useful and it depends on what you need it for. Just keep in mind Quixel has slow calculations due to bending Photoshop to the needs of 3D Artists and Photoshop is rental only... In uncertain times with…
