Re: Does a hiring season exist in the games industry?
A lot of big games ship in late fall, so that means studios are pushing like crazy the Jan-may/june before that to wrap production, so that would probably be a time of ramp up, especially for contract work. but studios will also hire really good artists even if there isn't an open position, usually through word of mouth,… -
Re: Indiana Jones
@Felixenfeu The jaw on my model is in fact quite a lot more pronounced than reality. It was a stylistic choice on my part in an effort to push the character further into the "heroic proportions." That said, there are definitely some tweaks that need to happen to his face before I wrap this. If anyone has suggestions for… -
Re: new characters that i'll definitely 100% finish... probably

Really wanna get morgs done, made some tweaks to teh spec map and the eyes so i can take some fresh pics at home tonight, maybe try some more interesting light cos im not too into it atm. And finally resolved some lightmap junk with link and did those mesh tweaks. Gonna make a pedestal, some better mat setup… -
Re: Substance and Unreal 4, texture differences
I dunno what software you're doing the rigging in, but the skin wrap modifier in 3ds max allows you to transfer weights from one mesh to another and then reskin. They don't even need to be the same topology. You can auto rig a low poly from a rigged high poly, or rig a high poly from a rigged low poly! This feature really… -

Re: Good mouse for modelling/Engines
I bought a G400 and the tracking is crap. I had a lot of issues with the cursor jumping around when it wasn't even moving. I took it back and got the G500 instead. The grip is nice, the DPI switching is handy, and it tracks very well with a laser. My only complaint against it is that the cord is wrapped in nylon, which… -
Re: APB - Aces
^^I mentioned this after you posted in waywo a few weeks back but I guess you didn't see it. In the concept the straps are a little loose and would more than likely stay aligned with her shins when bending her knee's (notice they aren't causing the pants to crease at all). Where's as you've kinda got them shrink-wrapped to… -
Re: Retopology & baking - teeth/horns/spinities
Yea teeth and horns are a pain. No real way around it. I agree it would look better as 1 mesh BUT it depends on if that really matters. If the teeth are only going to be 5 pixels on the screen save some time and make 1 > UV it and duplicate it around > FFD/Shrink Wrap them in place. You could even do this and then build… -
Re: (Blender) Need help with Team Fortress .mdl files
@ Mark Dygert That would be very much appreciated. It's difficult to figure out how all this works, so any help makes me happy @ Passerby No need, I can import SMD files into Blender now. However, if you've used Blender before, can you give me tips on UVWrapping? Because I can't wrap my head around it. If it helps, I'm… -
Re: office space
Thanks Polygonfreak :) I have to fix the text on the soda can to make it actually wrap around properly. I honestly think that your ceiling tiles came out nice. Maybe I have too many of them for the space. I can see what it looks like if I scale them up. And this is rendered in Unreal cooljay, yeah I did some color picking…
