Re: Student looking for advice
A professional looking reel, and networking are the 2 biggest. Junior / entry level positions are almost never posted online. They usually get filled through employee recommendations. So get out there and network. Whether it be attending beer nights where you get to know the person (Do NOT throw your reel at people and ask… -
Re: Deus Ex inspired street environment [UDK]
I've been thinking about interesting things I can do with this ground texture to tick boxxes for class and I want to post some ideas for crits. My plan is to create an asphalt material with vertex blending properties that could blend* cracks and wear * dirt and detritus * height variations depending on what I need. With… -
Re: Next Gen Characters Progress Thread II
The expression don't run before you can walk comes to mind, but this is more a case of don't run before you even leave the fanny... Seriously, its like you have some OCD and just have to get it done, quick quick quick, lets move onto the next step, over and over, without even taking the time needed. Just go back to square… -
Re: Need Advice Getting Started
Judging from the drawings you've posted I wouldn't say they're terribly disproportioned. Maybe it's not that bad as you see it. If you want to improve precision of your drawing, I would advise to concentrate on working on precision in terms of size and proportion first and leave light and shadow for later. Try to draw some… -
Re: Possible job offer in LA. Need help with salary requirements.
This tells me you're probably good at managing your self, your time and your deadlines as well as solving problems on your own. All things that can be great selling points.

Re: Rumour: Autodesk apparently killing Softimage!
It isn't a stretch to say Maya was acquired with the possible intent of cannibalizing its features for 3dsmax. What Autodesk discovered instead was that Max's architecture had reached its limits for further improvement and expansion. The program is 80% plugins. Retrofitting new features required enormous amounts of time… -

Re: worst toothache ever
[ QUOTE ] Yeah, I had a dentist drill into my nerve while taking out a cavity once. It is the only pain I have had that I would call "blinding" -- it made my vision fade white. I almost passed out a couple of times. I usually don't make a big deal about pain, but daaaaamn, it was intense. [/ QUOTE ] I went through the same… -
Re: need some advice on some normal mappin'
With things like that, i usually try to do 1 of 2 things: 1. Model a better shape less problematic to unwrap. 2. Put seams in the hipoly model where i think i'll need UV seams in the lowpoly. You already have that so i'd UV map the top half flat (till that inset seam that goes around the model) then UV map the rest below…
