@grumix8 I'm a 28 year old degenerate comedian character artist who Jesus still loves presumably, who's worked on films and video games for the last 10 years of varying scopes, from Diablo 3 to indie games like What Remains of Edith Finch. Your story is one of hundreds I have heard from other creatives in Los Angeles,…
The first piece is good, though the bright spot behind the character is fairly distracting. I would either get rid of the circle or replace the background entirely with something either more generic or more interesting, depending on if the character is the sole focal point (if so, I would just go with a generic…
Hey, I love this project! heres some feedback you could do about the face: She has a slightly longer and flatter face with more pushed up eyes and eyebrows. the lower part of her jaw bows out and comes into a point (see green arrow) she has very soft transitions from the eyelid to the checkbone, the lower eyebag can be…
Hello All, I am not "butt hurt"... well maybe a little...:) You would be too if you spent countless hours on a model and someone accused you of stealing it. Look, you are all missing the point in my particular case. I was given a 2d concept by a client to make a 3d model. What you see in my portfolio…
In general it'll probably work alright, although it could be a lot cleaner. There's a fine line when doing retopo work between being slavish to the surface being retopo'd and fudging it a little for a cleaner resultant mesh. One thing worth noting, though, I would generally recommend avoiding near-concave or concave…
Thanks so much for the replies, guys. Very helpful. What I've got so far now has taken me an embarrassingly long time tonight. I spent a good 2 or 3 hours just trying to figure out some of these angles, especially the circled area in the reference shot, which I never figured out. There's this weird slight angle there I…
Degrees are a method for measuring someone's qualifications in a given field. If getting a job is 90% dependent on a resume, as it is for most mid-high income jobs, a degree is probably mandatory. This concept doesn't apply as much to artists however because we can show our portfolios. A doctor can't line up a group of…
I started 2 and a half years ago. The first year was hard, not only personal stuff, but trying to keep $$ coming in AND sit in front of the computer doing something. Everything seemed out of my reach, and I spent a lot of time going in circles. The first year was shit. Wasted time. I wasn't making solid plans. Attainable…
The wood looks pretty good. Except for a weird band along the top outside. Also the bottom edge is strangely darkened, looks like the normal map is not aligned properly. I would add mesh for the metal hoops, so you get some silhouette. Also the metal seems to be lower resolution than the wood, it looks blurry and seems to…
I think something that would be kind of cool and semi-achievable would be that Trial of Champions dungeon in WoW. For people who don't know. It's one arena. Circle shaped. There are enemies lined around the outer part of the arena. They are not attackable, they take their turns. All players jump on their horses and joust…
