Re: Opportunities to get one's foot in the door?
Rarely. QA is gonna not respect your art making time most likely. Best I've heard is a friend of mine from church who nabbed a front desk job with Cloud Imperium, but that's mostly because she already had barista experience. You're better suited looking for work that will protect your art making time. Whatt that is varies.… -
Re: Seeking Professional Advice
Just to throw in the other side of the opinions. Its an extremely competitive industry and attracts a lot of people into it, but if you commit and are passionate about what you do. But ultimately, good at what you have chosen to do. I believe you can do very well for yourself. Starting salary in games is pretty bad, but… -
Re: THRONE ROOM Mad Maximus Throne Osman Samano
I should update more regularly, but a week after the previous post I did the following. Every model I have made has had at least three iterations, and my textures have had two. My textures will be finished after I improve them with Substance Painter. So far I have created the base texture for about six models: walls,… -
Re: Why Modo?
From someone who is going from 3DS Max to learning Modo: Pro's : The cost Support from Foundry Mac support - I travel a lot with a mac and wanted a 3D package. Feels un-bloated - Max for me has slowly become more and more filled with tools i just don't use and modo is generally more trimmed and has the basics I need. Tools… -
Re: 3dsmax ambient occlusion bug?

Re: Examples of artists who've started later in life and found success?
I used to fling out 2 examples to my students that don't really seem to exist online anymore.

Welcome back danshewan! I remember your name and avatar :icon60: I had some simpler problems but here it goes: In my country, you need to complete a 4 year degree if you want to spend 5 months instead of 15 months in military service. I didn't and still don't want to join the military at all for various reasons. I was a… -
Re: Portrait critique
Hi Shade117 pro, This latest image is already a lot better in terms of colour compared to the previous :) The colours of the shadows are nice and could even be a little darker near the tighter regions for a more pleasing ambient occlusion. In case you haven't already looked into ambient occlusion it's the regions where… -
The plight of a game artist who wants to work remotely
*sigh* So I got a sharp hair up my ass last night and went on a quest to figure out how to get my Cintiq Companion to do GPU intensive stuff like doing work in Substance Painter or Marmoset Toolbag. First, I thought, hey I can just run a remote desktop to my workstation, problem solved. Nope. I can't get pen pressure to… -
