Re: ram question
I don't know if that's quality RAM, but I heard OCZ is not as good as it once was. Vista label on RAM is more of gimmick since it is more dependent on the motherboard which will make it more compatible. RAM is really cheap now you could get 2X2 GB PC2-6400 which is slightly faster set for $115-$130. I think that RAM would… -
Re: Experience advice please
the 1st thing would be to learn the trade. if the school doesnt offer it. Drop it. There is a bunch of training on the gnomon workshop and such that u could get for what you would paid for a class. Thats how i did it, when the proffesor didnt cover something. The next thing would be to make friends with other artist. Tho,… -
Re: Traditional art skills
As Frankie, I also recommend life drawing, life sculpting or basically any drawing class that has an instructor. This way you get a live model and real time feedback on how you're doing. Re: costs, depends what's available where you live. I've taken weekend workshops, extension classes at the local U., drop-in sessions… -
Re: Green with envy
Just a little update or two on the ol' cuda. Owner of the body shop had a heart attack about a week or so ago, recovered and is already back to workin on the car.

Re: sketching Materials?
I don't know if they are readily avaliable in the UK, but I use Hi-Tec-C pens with Copic Markers. You don't necessarily need the Bienfang marker paper for this combonation to work, but it certainly helps. I do a lot of work with these on normal printer paper and even in my sketchbook. Hi-Tec-Cs come in mltiple sizes and… -
Re: Learning to code.. C++ or Python?
If you're not short on perseverance and a bit of a social introvert :) I'd say from experience acquiring a 'workable' knowledge base can accrue positive results in the short term but of course relative too one's circumstance setting aside requisite time also previous programming exposure will definitely come in handy. That… -
Re: Sketchbook: Tara Bachtel
Haven't updated in a while but I'm working on a character for Art War 3 and would love some constructive criticism. How can I make this character better? She's going to be a villian who can open wormholes to other dimensions and send her enemies through to other worlds. She has 12 eyes that can see into other worlds. The… -
Re: Photos in textures?
In a sense, you're both right, but he's righter. If it looks out of place, then the artist has failed. The key here is "If you can get away with it", that, and the overall art direction of the game dictate success with photos in game art. Using photo overlays is very common, using photos directly is less so, but still… -
Re: Sketchbook: Vivin
Cheers for all the nice comments guys :) Rens: I agree that the boots look alittle plain compared to other surfaces such as the helmet, will need to take that into consideration on my next character ;) Jeanshade: The Scavanger dude finished up at around 4.6million polys, alot of it was kinda wasted, but eh..it was still…
