Re: Portfolio Advice
Your portfolio does have a bit of 'Jack of all trades' vibe to it. It can be a lot of fun to create many different kinds of art, but to compete professionally in 3-5 art disciplines, be prepared to put 3-5 times as much time and effort to advance your skills. You mentioned that you are primarily looking for work as a… -
Re: Why companies don't update their software?
Just a short example. If i decide to update the latest maya version without the go from my pipeline TD. The following could happen. Next morning 80+ Artists would update there prefs and install the first 4h the day custom tools they need. The layout department would inform the TD that they cant work cause there is no… -
Re: Bombay
I can't really commend enough for someone's effort to capture the chaotic nature of bombay (mumbai or you 'll get your ass kicked :D ) and especially the slums. your rickshaw and fiat taxi's are not very faithful to the real thing. the taxis are a bit more "fatty" and curvy… -
Re: Moving to Austin - Roommates?
Hey welcome to Vigil! I don't need a roomate, but just wanted to give you a heads up on the housing situation. Housing is pretty cheap, you can get very nice 1 bedroom apartments in the 500-700 range. Your options are going to be pretty limited if you don't have transportation, there are only a couple places within walking… -

Re: Radeon or Gtx?
Under normal circumstances the AMD R9 290 has the most bang for the buck, and since the drivers are not as optimized (performance wise) as nvidias yet, it will probably get even better in the future. I write under normal circumstances because a lot of litecoin (and other cryptocurrency) miners buy AMD GPUs like mad, which… -
Re: Windmill Environment
Yo, I'm loving this environment! The flowers are beautiful and the scene is just very stunning in general. A few areas I'd like to point out for consideration: A. Your camera angles seem low in general, especially when looking at the wagon. Main camera angles should generally be done from eye-level, unless there's a… -
Re: It is good to have Mac for 3D
To be fair that is a Mac Pro. Which is the absolute highest end Mac, and the closest to a PC in terms of form. And the easiest of Macs to upgrade. And 80% of people who buy a Mac, won't buy that. Unless they need some serious power. And 90% of Mac users don't. Industry professionals, most definitely yes, but Joe Slow,… -
Re: First Realism Zbrush
Right now you are very far from realism. It's great to see that you're working from a low-res base mesh. Did you build this yourself by retopoing? It seems every sculpting beginner attempting a head and new to ZB starts with a high-res dynamesh and then wonders why their sculpt is so hard to control with terrible forms.… -
Re: Skipping cutscenes in games
I see Dark Souls used a lot as an example of a game that can tell a good story with little to no use of cutscenes, but it's important to realize that not every game tries to tell the same type of story as Dark Souls. In many good JRPGs, you can basically write a 6 page paper solely about the main character of the game. Can…
