A game studio is really hopeless idea here because as others have said already, art is a small portion of the big picture and I don't see why anyone would bother to crowdfund an outsource studio... The typical route for sites like this is to turn it into an educational platform ala conceptart.org/gameartisans.org because…
I hope you don't mind this, but I did a bit of a paintover. Look, as I said previously, nothing is wrong with your detailing and your topology is good etc-- but you're iterating on top of these flawed base forms. If you had spent more time then, you would have a better product right now. This is dodgy, I snuck it in at…
Check out this site for some really good cloth tips: http://www.losart3d.com/Main/main.htm Go to the "Download" section. You'd think the tutorials would be in the "Tutorials" section, but whatever. Don't be afraid to crank up the poly count on your cloth and collision objects, it might take longer to sim but it will be…
Mop covered most of it - the renders for the most part are very washed out. Prune some old stuff. The first thing on your site is a huge "About Me" section. By all means have a short paragraph about yourself on the first page, but not a novel. You want to bobard them with a sexy image! Move the "About Me" section to a…
A lot of people use youtube because they lack the means to upload mov files. It happens on a lot of forums, even on animation boards. I give up and save the youtube videos using www.savetube.com and then covert them to .mov if I need to step. It's more work on my end but I find it faster than the back and forth you get…
Im not an expert, but ive got the following links saved in this general hlsl area: http://www.tech-artists.org/ - I think this place is a good resource. you use Max, so below is a realtime shader system that fits right into max, also its free for independant use, but your company I think will have to purchase a license.…
well he's got quite a track reccord. the site honestly pisses me off... but i'm really tired, because it's way past my bedtime. All the power to him. personally i hate the sims. spore was a piece of shit. meh. i'll keep my eye on this, but I'm not convinced that he's a guru of anything. seriously, he's got such a history,…
some people may disagree, but I always say stay away from frames. Employers love simplicity. The site locks itself at a fairly small size for my monitor's resolution, so it feels kind of silly to be forced to scroll down to read a resume that could easily fit on my screen as a single page. You could do away with the lower…
I personally don't think that 7 pages to click through for one grenade and box is really that necessary. but like c0ldhands said, carbonmade doesn't give you large enough image space so maybe scale it down by a couple pages. for the site itself - the title says textures & environment on every page. Yet there is only one…
MoP, this is from his site: Also judging by the caliber of work on his site, I think he's at a good place 2D wise. Depending on how apt he is at teaching himself or learning technical things he could be cranking out some pretty awesome stuff pretty quick. Jack, It's just buttons and menus don't let it freak you out. Sure…
