I'll be in Seattle next weekend, the 11th-14th. It's sort of a tradition of mine to come up there around this time every year for the big juggling festival. I'm not sure if any of you have any interested in juggling, but I can honestly say it's worth the price of admission to see Peter Irish's act. The guy can juggle three…
It's probably a good idea to avoid the term game art, I say I do environment art for video games as a hobby. And if they are not sure what that entails, I say something like you know how older movies like Starwars were filmed using miniature models of spaceships and cities. Well now they do all that prop work with…
I like the design and where it's headed. Really like the hood and armor. I agree with DeathKitten that the hips seem too low, or maybe too small? And some info on kilts, for you to decide on where you want to take it.... A kilt is a knee length skirt (from natural waist to kind of just above the knee). Was used by the…
Ref for my new project, I comped in a really interesting door I found for a bit more of a fantasy feel. I've also been looking into architecture to see what different parts are called. There is a series of books by Herbert Press that are really useful: How to read castles How to read buildings They are basically a visual…
Wowwww... this game (and the video you just posted of the side-scrolling shooter) is amazing. I've always wanted to make something like this, and have been making a first-person mystery/puzzle game on my own in UE4. I noticed you had a posting on freelance work, but I don't think I'm skilled enough. I've studied and built…

Hello polycount! I recently started working on a project that was preying on my mind for quite some while: a medieval townlet environment of my very own making, presented in Unreal. I like to track my progress and so I thought I'd start this topic, maybe some of you want to follow me along. Most important: If you have any…
Nice samples Mezz. By all means, if anyone has their own pictures they'd like to share, feel free to post them. Bonsai are interesting little creatures, and I was very surprised to learn that their shape and design are not natural, but are in fact heavily manipulated (trained) during their life to make them look the way…
A 1099 in relation to the job I did, showing I got paid for work that required the use of the monitor. Technically, I always end up owing, but that's the way it is for anyone who pays estimated taxes - fourth quarter payments are either due by Jan 15th or 30th, depending on whether or not you pay off your tax completely. I…
1.) Relocate to the U.S.A. again 2.) Learn Maxscript and write my first macro by Feb 15th. 3.) Start and finish a techincal writting course by March 30th 4.)
