(I'm still a student btw.) I have been modelling everything from simple objects, to characters,cars... and i come to think about it.. isn't it wise to mainly specialize into one thing..like.. if you like modelling interior... you will only model that and become super good in that.. My dream is to model models for game and…
Hi, I'm trying to figure out the best scope or focus for my portfolio. I enjoy hard surface modeling. I'm currently working on BMW E63 and have modeled a German WW2 plane in the past. Is it okay to stick with vehicles (tanks, cars, bikes, trains)? And disregard characters and environment art? I'm hoping this is possible. I…
I recommend you inspect some existing 3d models of rifles matching your standard (e.g. search "rifle" on sketchfab, check UVs). Unlike in your example, you will find that on several rifles the UVs of the stock consist of 2 islands with the seams running vertically along the gun. UV islands shape represent shape of the mesh…
Forewarning: i haven't tested this it is going off of memory from when i played with the timeline record options. idk if the recorder would work here for a quick "fix" to this, it will save a frames position so if you turn it in one frame you can click to record another frame where it is orientated to where you want it to…
Rewatching the entire series (up2 ep55/s3) this month actually(while i do things) so works out i suppose to help with these (I've seen) many recent artworks, its cool to see. Guess adding buildings, or cave walls from the ceremony episode, the rose (center of societies "safety" ) building maybe? (idk the actual names just…
I baked from High to Low in substance, not sure what you umean by UV breaks on the low wherever there are hard edges? If you mean splitting the UV's on the model example above into 3 seperate UV islands then yes I did that :) This is from Sunset Overdrive, the PDF and Video Talk explains that they are just using the…
idk about everyone else, but i only allow connections i somewhat trust and currently you are hosting this video on some site and from the ip's i view hosting from amazon? what's wrong with polycounts image uploading system? I allowed that and can see images when users use p.c.'s img system. otherwise i hope this is good, i…

Massive poverty…
Thanks for the feedback everyone. I wish I could go no-resume because I do agree 100% that portfolios are far far more important. Mine has actually never been where I want it to be, which is why I've sparsely ever applied for paid 3D Artist positions. Unfortunately, I don't think anyone has ever Not asked me for a resume,…
