Re: What Are You Working On? 2010 Edition!
For these particular designs I've been showing off lately, they're all done in Photoshop. I do a lot of work in Illustrator as well, but mostly logo work and print media(outside of apparel design) due to the nature of scaling. All these designs are done at 300DPI and are anywhere from 12" x 12" to 20" x 20" which is more… -
Re: Environment Art Test Critique
Thanks everyone. I'm calling this a "successful failure" in that it sucks, but I learned from it :thumbup:. A few thoughts: 1. I was given a loosely painted concept similar to this. The most interesting parts of the scene were loosely rendered in the painting and I'm terrible at concepting on the fly. I was told it should… -
Re: [Kickstarter] Better Things: The Life and Choices of Jeffrey Catherine Jones
Investing in a product normally means getting a return in your investment because you are taking a risk and are waiting for the payoff. If I'm going to give money to something I expect getting a little bit extra in return over a later consumer because I did help fund the project. And something I'd actually like, not a key… -
Re: Tournaments and the workshop
Interesting discussion so far! Thanks for your lengthy input guys! If 60% of items added to game are tournament items then that's really high. If valve has a quota to add per month, say 20 sets per month, and tournaments get 12 sets out of the 20, then you gotta be in the lucky 8 to even try to get in independently. This… -
Re: HL2: Episode 1
It was worth my 20 bucks. Sure, there is cheaper entertainment out there, and if that's for you, then go do it. Not much sense complaining about it. The way I see it it's, 20 bucks for a DVD, or 20 bucks for a game. The latter is dynamic and each time through can be a bit different. There's also all the commentary stuff.… -
Re: help with new gaming system
i'll buy a new system this week too. i checked that link justin , looks nice but cant agree with some parts. -8800 gts is kinda overkill. actually it's a really bad time to buy a new vga , dx9 cards will be useless in a few months , dx10 cards are too expensive (8800 series) or has bad performance compared to last years… -
Re: [WIP] Mavica FD71 - Floppy Disk camera
@illumisanic Oh, correct me if wrong think my question wasn't that clear? indeed sorry about that bad habit/s : # Had initially meant texture resolution and as I understand this is a hero prop? so was just wondering if the texel density was either 4096 = 20.48px/cm or perhaps 2048 = 10.24px/cm...etc? hence out've personal… -
Re: Own Goal 2006
Hmmm, you guys should specify your goals a bit better, so it can help you determine how/when/how long you should do it. 'Become a better artist' isnt really a good goal you can and will complete. Try using the SMART method. My goals: Skill -I will make a portfolio website displaying at least 6 of my 'done' models within… -
Re: [WIP] Chhatrapati ( Final Major Project)
Update#5 I have completed the retopology and UV mapping for the clothing. Although this is a game asset, I want to ensure it has a high level of detail for close-up shots. Therefore, I decided to maintain slightly denser geometry and increase the texel density to about 25 px/cm. I am currently deliberating between two… -
Re: How much of ZBrush do you guys actually use?
My view of things: (i could be wrong..) Suppose things like extra detailing can still be done, if people like to keep those anatomy muscle memories thriving due to repeated "recreation & brush-up", then it can still be useful. Not a big "make-art-button", guy as others of late have been by promoting it, so i would still…
