daphz: What material is the "skirt" (bottom part of the armor) Judging by it's thickness and the bolts it looks pretty solid and would most likely prevent her from moving at all. And that spiky design would probably kill any horse/creature she rides so that wouldn't be an option either... Maybe have another look at the…
Your attention to detail is stellar. The MG is looks great so far. Your geometry looks spot on, too. I did notice, in the wireframe shots, a few areas in the MG that you have some vertex pinching on top and the sides around where the magazine goes. A few of the flat pieces in the same areas with multiple polys should be a…
Blender is free, Powerful and is making a name for itself you could learn one of the industry standard apps on the side (Maya/Max) they have student licenses but if you focus all attention on blender now you could just switch over later in life to when you actually need them. Blender has enough tutorials to choke a…
Looking cool man! Really sweet renders. A few things that called my attention, why is there a giant ass hole in the back of the car sit but so much little damage on the front. Should make some of the scratches a little more pronoucnce to bring that color breakup to the front. Same goes for the wrinkles on the cloth, you…
The same thing happen to me too. It is very annoying. The first time I got around by selecting all the inside faces that were sticking out and deleted them or just hide them temporary. If I can now when working on cloth I am trying to get away with one sided objects but most time it is not possible so I have to use the…
I think your mesh is very problematic. I don't think you can get rid of the scariness with just the texture. When a face is just not working out, your best bet is to go back to reality. You can't really pull off a good stylized face if you can't model a good realistic face. I suggest you get some good front and side view…
Freelancing isn't some "side job" you do until you think you can work in-house. It requires you to build a reputation for honestly, and timely delivery. This is a small industry, and making a wreck of someone's project will hurt your chances of getting a job. best way to get freelance is to work at a studio for several…
Yeah you are definetely heading in the right direction, might I suggest though that you mirror your horse a bit more to get better results? As the way you are going, the horse doesnt have any major asymetry points, such as a detail on one side, so mirroring will allow you to get higher detail. I did 3 horses for Age 3…
Personally, I don't find a news section all that terrible, I would just put it as kind of a side note to your art. Like if someone looks at all your art and wants to know more, they have that option. But it should be strictly game art related and not the first thing one sees. For example, everyone knows Ben Mathis has a…
Here are a few things you should fix: -The side rails are WAY too small. You may wanna bring them to the end of the gun, as well. -The hinge for the stock is very inaccurate. Follow the link below for all the reference you could ever need -The insets on the clip are out of place and should be different sizes like in the…
