Oh yea sure. This also opens up to the high poly being UV'ed however you need it to be. If you apply a bump map or a normal map to your high poly model that will also capture and bake. This is good for things like skin details or stone patterns in a statue. It can even be insanely helpful for things like a wood pattern.…
I really love all kinds of beer, but Stella is the one beer that makes me ask - why?! It doesn't have much taste to begin with, and in all the London clubs, it's chilled down to even remove the little taste it has (same goes for the Asahi, Corona and Bud you find in the same venues)....and then they charge you 4 pounds or…
I also happen to be working on the Piazza San Marco for my project. Although I haven't started on the Basilica yet. Thing is, it's a hell lot of work doing something like that accurately. Those statues will be hell to model them all. I've written something about my sketchup workflow in my…
I think for Junior Artists, they just want to know that you understand what a typical wage for one is. I dont care I just want to make games is not a good answer, nor is Im a professional, I need 75k just to get out of bed. Im reckoning loads of artists go into an interview and ask for really low wages thinking it will…
Ye i like ur sense of design. It's detailed by not overly-busy. Texture sheets will def help provide some insight to ur work, u should include a few example with every set. Apropo, I think textures r ur weakest point. They r good all-around, but look more like a good patch-up of detail overlay layers rather than an…
Thanks for the kind words guys. Means a lot. Nikki - Yeah she has legs for days! I always draw my girls with long legs too, anyone would think it was a fetish ;P I wanted to post to update tonight because i've been hitting it hard but there's not a lot to show really since last time. The highpoly (for the body) is polished…
I'd argue it was "loved" because as Apple's Guy Kawasaki put it (Machead's documentary), "evangelism". When Apple was on the brink of dying, they brought it back through "evangelism", they used the word "cult" often to describe their fanbase and nearly every facet of their market success was to create a and I quote…
Hey guys, got an update on the model to show off, I finished my first 5 tasks I set out for myself, so here's the new progress. Next Character Task List 1. Add in belt loops around waist for pants and outer coat 2. Add tension points based on those loops 3. Work on lower half of the coat, further defining the shape of the…
nice scene! I don't know how unique you can really get with this without getting silly or out of place. I mean, maybe someone has a crane game they bought at an auction they've stuffed with guns, even if the glass is busted and the crane doesn't work. Or a Buddha statue with a hinged belly. Games have been using containers…
It would help your argument be more believable if you had data to draw from. In philosophy there is a difference between "Believing" and "Knowing". You have to convince the audience that you "Know" what you are saying is true by providing data. Use examples of games with stylized graphics, and how they came to critical…
