Re: Ai vs GNWC (Vancouver, Canada)
I went to AiPittsburgh, it has it's issues, but it really is....oh you know what.... "going to school is what you get out of it..." "you will not be handed a job because you have a piece of paper..." "your portfolio is all that matters..." "go to an art school with a focus on fine arts..." "learn 3D by forum trolling and… -
Re: First model post.
I think your mesh is very clean and has very little wasted poly's which is def. a great thing for your first model post. I'm also a Maya user for about 2 years now so Cheers! tho one thing i'd like to put out there, not sure if you know, but the polycount for unreal 2k4 is like 3500 so i think you should put alot more… -
Re: Looking for critique of a 3D Japanese Onsen Environment
Hey there, welcome to Polycount. I'm not seeing any images. Best way to get responses is to embed your work here on Polycount. Don't make us click a link to see your stuff, that stops lots of people right away, it's a gate. We're on a site where art is embedded all the time. It's the expectation. We've clicked on your… -
Re: Why you need an education
I was thinking about it pretty hard last night and a few awesome artists from Polycount did came to mind: Rooster, Gauss and Robert Yang (whose screen name I forget, but who I know posts here). There are probably some Polycounters doing cool stuff I don't know about and a couple I may be forgetting right at this moment.… -
Re: UTMC: Concept Art "Q&A" Thread
Do you have any plans in the future to showcase off some runner ups? It would suck to only have 2 (possibly one) winners and the rest forgotten. How sad :[ There won't be a small set of winners here. We'll use any and all artwork that we feel hits the marks we're looking for. Anyone who contributes artwork we like will be… -
Re: [Portfolio] Gemma Suen- Feedback for graduate 2D/3D artist?
generally i think your work is nice. I believe things are aimed for higher polycounts nowadays, pc's and even consoles (which are quite old now) can push a lot higher polycounts than the stuff you've made...unless you want to aim in the mobile/tablet market. for example the curtains of the bed on the pics above, should be… -
Re: Wordpress Users!
Dado - I'm using my own webserver, not a free hosted solution. Wordpress's main site seems to be fine for me though. I visited a few Polycounters portfolios to see what they were using themselves :) Loads of people here on Polycount use it for portfolio. I'm mostly using it for blogging, with a bit of 'portfolio' on the… -
Re: In dire need of Critiques!
Ahh thanks glad you dig, it's actually for a contest- mm I put wacom logo because it was so well known and wanted to bring the meaning back to digital painting in general. I don't know any other stronger way of doing that besides that path atm In terms of crisp and clear, where would you think I should push out more? I'm… -
Re: What to strat from?
There's no 'beginner' application as such, the best way to start is to test usually. Get a feel for any of them applications first (I would probably recommend 3ds max or maya, But blender is free so that might be easier for you) The thing you should realise is all the mentioned applications can do the work of the other,… -
Re: Environment Artist Portfolio Critique - Ongoing
I think the short of it is that you are not ready for a portfolio. I know that is discouraging as fuck, but it is good to recognize where you are at so you can improve. You need to look up tutorials on the fundamentals - modeling, texturing, design- and use those as a guide. Here's a good place to…
