Re: Tournaments and the workshop
Yeah the best case scenario is that you and the player have a direct line of communication. If you have to go through a manager it most likely you are making the managers set rather than the players set. Some players let you just come up with your own idea and just keep them on the loop to see if they like it or not. So… -
Re: Story Time: Payment for Art Test? Is this the norm?!
It may not be a 1 to 1 example, but I remember when I first applied for a job at Wal-Mart, even before I was hired, they did pay me to show up for some interview/orientation sessions. And I felt incentive by it to actually show up for the days they wanted me to, and I did the assignments/questionnares they expected me to… -
Re: Need specific advice on getting into the industry
I like your art! The first 3 images are great, and the lovecraft too. A few pieces might be hurting your portfolio, I would suggest removing them: * cyberpunk-character-3000.jpg (rendering and proportions not up to par, compared to cyber-junkie for example) * Tanker-painting9FLAT.jpg (rendering isn't as good as your best… -
Re: Tiled or bespoke textures?
Don't UV each polygon separately. This is bad for two reasons: 1) it creates visible seams where the textures do not match perfectly. 2) it increases the vertex count in the game. It is better to UV a surface in larger contiguous pieces. In your example, the top of the island will be grass, so it should be mapped as one… -
Re: Tehrobster's texturing Improvement Thread
Hey Tehrobster2, I'm not really sure what you are going for here? Is this a sci fi crate with a wooden front or is there supposed to be metal behind the wood? I'm noticing parts of the texture are overlapping too, mainly the gaps between the wood on top of the crate seem to be overlapping the blue metal. The location and… -
Re: A UArtsy Subscription Kickstarter
something about this make me uneasy. first of all its the sales language, but maybe thats a neccesity. i feel though that some stuff is very vague like for example; "Why subscription model? * No waiting for instruction to begin * Work at your own pace and on your own schedule * Subscribe and grow immediately * Incredible… -
Re: 3Ds Max horrible packing compared to other packages
Hmm. cant nest quotes. Lods: if youre sharing textures across lods you need to lay uvs out very specifically - its hard to give a good example without pictures but you need to place uvs perceptually in place from a planar projection rather than based on how they are actually connected to each other Shader effects: the… -
Re: Tyrande Whisperwind (Bust)
I really like the direction you're taking this, awesome stuff! Those changes you made the other week really helped your texture work come together. I think you're at the point where you can start considering infusing additional color variation within each of your texture sections/color blocks. If you flip through a lot of… -
Re: Workflow Poll: Tools vs. Actions
I can give an example based on instruments I'm developing, hoping it's right. Topic: select edge ring/loop Action based: clear current selection if needed, select an edge, then click [Ring] or [Loop] button, or shortcut and you get your selection Tool based: activate tool, mouse click on an edge and drag. According to the… -
Re: Sketchbook: ImSlightlyBored
hey thanks! cheers for the heads up on the presentation. i think ill start using larger images. definitely will revisit that lighting setup. i want to keep the dramatic shadows at the front (worth leaving?) but the rest can be eeked out. ok patches. theyre a bit crap to model with initially (like nurbs; always fighting…
