It still doesn't appeal to me just yet. Looks like we have two camps so far, those that don't see anything they can connect to yet and don't plan on seeing it and those that think it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. I'll check it on on rental. I think the majority of the talk is in the new '3D' talks being applied…
[ QUOTE ] Sometimes you have to work with what you're given. Happens all the time in production. [/ QUOTE ] QFT. This is the second game I've been animating characters that someone else has built. This person has been asked to create a new style for our charcters and blaze a new path. In my opinion this person isn't always…
I agree with Johny as well. The TF2 community, for example, is full of smarmy fools who think they have the greatest ideas since sliced bread. If you give those people the ability to not only contribute ideas but funds as well, then they'll have an even worse misplaced sense of entitlement than before and any gaming…
When I did the head there were a number of minor things I'd figured to tweak. I wouldn't call your head "wrong", it wasn't typical but we've all seen people with weird faces or similarly proportioned features. That being said, our job as artists isn't to make things real it's to make people believe that they could be. To…
Its a way of life for me, not a 'job'. I love what I do even moreso now than ever before. I'm very lucky in that I have a wife that is equally passionate about games / game art and working on games - This helps! I also guess it depends on how making art resonates with you as a person. I've crunched for 14 - 16 hours a day…
Thanks for the comments folks. Re; The concrete rail / step set - I work with a collection of elements that can be combined in different arrangements. I do this in general, its also good way to create manageable chunks for UVing. I did a less fancy piece like this in the Gear2 Hospital set and ended up using the trim set…
i open this tread cuz the damn problem of the photoshop knows as "(0x80042260)" dont let me work on Ddo, but reading all the posts i've realized that there is no common factor that solve this problem. In my case: load obj (Triangulated in the export settings from 3d max) load ID map (png) load normalmap (png) load AO map…

I mean Today I was Destroyed by hatefull people on facebook... tell me to delete my Post (Which is my fan of Bowsette) I…
The IndieGoGo business seems like a really bad idea. I'm sure if whoever runs the site knew what your teacher was asking, they'd disallow it. Particularly in the case of your project where it's based on an existing IP. There's a real possibility of getting sued by Warner Brothers for trying to make money of their property,…
Thanks for the feedback. Good, bad, or indifferent, it's always welcome. A few points if I may. 1 - I'm Irish, so by nature we don't ever 'Hollywood' it up. And I certainly won't be pretending to be 'more energetic' any time soon. 2 - I work 60 hours a week. Spend about 20 hours a week on personal work. And put these tuts…
