Re: I'm looking to get down to the grind, any advice?
If you're broke and you find thats affecting your work (like paying for internet to put a portfolio online or find training) get a job, any job. I've had low paying part-time jobs since I was 16, and thats helped me through college, university, and online training. Plus if I do get a job offer, I'll have enough money to… -
Getting a job overseas?
Hi, I have been a member of this forum for some years now and I have been inspired and motivated by the community here. I cannot count how many times I have gotten help/solutions for technical issues I have encountered during my projects. For the long while now, I have been working on my portfolio and working on my skills… -
Re: How to recreate One Piece anime-style shading & glow (Paint Tool SAI 2 + After Effects)?
I think you've already got a good understanding of how this kind of anime post-processing works based on your initial post (a faint blurring on a duplicate of the lines layer, some glow effects on the flats, some color correction, and so on). But, attempting to recreate it on your own lines and flats loosely based on a ref… -
Re: At least someone gets it
As I've said a million times over to anyone that's said to me that they cant wait to get a ps3.... "Next gen's already here, what the hell are you waiting for?". -
Re: Getting a loan, buying some licenses/hardware?
Yes there is an option to refinance here. Though not all banks or other companies do that. It's exactly what i did after getting a better income. Could spend more but wanted to get rid of my loan and blacklisting (yeah you get blacklisten (sort of) called BKR registration here if you get a loan) faster. So yeah you can do… -
Re: Should I get a degree in Game Art?
Don't do it. You will get a better understanding of creating 3d art by buying some eat3d, gnomon, and 3dmotive tutorials opposed to what 90% of these game art "schools" will teach you. For the most part, they are there to take your money. There are some legit schools out there (the ones that are actually hard to get into).… -
How do I get random rotational gradients per tile ?
I am trying to get random directional gradients on my tiles so that every tile has a randomly picked gradient towards a certain axis. Using "pattern symmetry random" I can get 1 axis (front and back) but how do I get the other (sideways) gradient ? I thought I could use "pattern rotation random" for this as I saw someone… -
Portfolio feedback and advice for getting the first Job
Hi all, I have been applying for Character/General Modeling Artist job postings for the last six months. The only successes I had were from Taiwanese studios. However, due to visa restrictions, they can't offer me a job. As for applications to Western companies(mostly American), I have only received rejection latters and… -
Re: How to get more replies/critiques.
POlycount is a community, and to be in a community is to be relational. You are not going to get any comments if you are not in relation to other posters. I can keenly recall more personal details than I really care to about my "classmates" of polycount of 10 years ago--like cholden above me, a dude I have met in person,… -
Re: Getting started in VFX
Hey there! Always exciting to meet people interested in getting into VFX, there aren't enough of us around! I started doing FX around 5 years ago, first just doing simple texture replacements, then working on a few Source engine mods after I got to know the particle editor. A few of the members of my mod teams moved over…
