Don't worry about a demo reel unless you're an animator or f/x artist; quality still images are much more useful. The 'Work' heading on your menu is misleading; it generally implies a link to a work history or professional projects. "Portfolio" is a more common title. If you're interested in console/PC work, you should…
You may want to start a real sketchbook so you have something to bring with you in interviews as proof that you have trad skillz. And if you have trouble at this point of coming up with original ideas for drawing, you can just copy works of artists or game art that inspire you as "study" pieces. Before somebody says…
Just out of curiosity, why does this mod need to run at 120 fps on a Pentium III? Are you doing this simply as a technical challenge, or do you just want this game playable on virtually any computer? As for the models, I think "Mermie's" texture can use a lot of love as it is on the muddy side. I would also highly suggest…
I agree with you acc so much of higher education is seriously flawed in terms of actually equipping you with skills relevant to the job your training for, I don't know if that's particular to this age or whether things were better in the past but from all my mates who I went uni with I know of about only 2 or 3 who got…
Tried to organize something like this a few times. But unfortunately it was way to difficult to manage. Trouble I ran into (maybe you can learn from it :P). - It took all my time, which made it impossible to do my freelance work. People mailed, phoned me all day with (stupid) questions. - Multiple people managing = getting…
heh here in texas 25k is pretty close to starting pay, my first offer at TIMEGATE STUDIOS IN HOUSTON TEXAS was 19k which i promptly refused and it was a good thing because after the game shipped they fired off the whole team and bought the unreal engine 3.0 Metabus: you'd be surprized how very few companies are actually…
Hi there 3DLee, I think maybe your extra drop down navigation and search box is a bit too much. In other words I'm confused as to weather or not I should be using it or the links on the left side of your page to navigate with. Also when I click any of the images on the 1st page that pops up it doesn't take me to larger…
Gorkamorka is my main inspiration, loved the game. I'm doing gork and mork team colour variants. So @whats_true no red paint job I'm afraid, but I'll see how I crack on with the gork and mork themes and might add some 40k paint variants for some more colour. Cheers for all the comments, I'll share some of the techy bits if…
OK here is what I have done. Tried the checker thing, and should I make my own or use the Maya one? I just used the Maya one, and the automatic mapping tool and this is how it looked. How do I align those checkers? Around the corners, there is a little messing up a bit. I used the Normals>Soften Edge, and it made the edges…
Ya he's a mega man badguy. I guess the Dragonfly is more RTS style do to the 1000 tri limit, but I would still like him to look good closer up. Any suggestions for things that are lacking? Glad you like the Dragonfly! As for Chainsaw Man, what in particular 'grabs' you the least? -Is it the mesh itself (topology etc)…
