Re: Idle and Walk
Here's a few pointers for the idle... * If you want to point the sword down like this, you would use a different finger grip. Imagine the character is pointing a TV remote at a screen; that's how he would grip the sword when pointing. Instead you have him gripping it like a hammer, so when you point it down like that you… -
Re: UI Artist Portfolio
I would say that making good looking art is a secondary skill when it comes to UI design. Your primary skill is being a problem solver. You have to come up with good solutions to fit alot of information into your screen, while making it look clean and tidy. Your work goes hand in hand with the game design, your job is to… -
Re: Ways to make low poly frayed wire ends?
Yeah, just going to mention that again. Alpha planes likely won't work well, no matter how good the alpha itself is. The "normal maps don't work with VR" thing is commonly stated, it's not that this is wrong, but rather incomplete advice. Normal maps certainly do work with VR, but you can't use normal maps to fake geometry… -
Re: Does the current school system kill creativity?
That talk is awesome, but as Dunne and d1ver said, it is a problem, but it is most definitely not something that anyone has overlooked intentionally. The reason that you don't see more digital arts schools here in Denmark, is that both the schools, and those interested in the subjects are taxed beyond their autonomous… -
Re: How do I know what should be normal mapped/baked in an environment?
Time is money and honestly, noone cares about some unimportant prop or thats just there to fill up the space, or some generic tile floor so hand sculpting paint chips or dirt on it would be very pointless and waste of time. Also, have you seen Substance Designer and Painter, or the Quixel apps? There are much more time -… -
Re: Nearly 50% of GameStops profits come from pre-owned sales (College Paper)
While I agree with many things being said, I have to say that I do not agree with the sentiment that the devs should get a cut of used games sales. Why should they? Would you want Lazy Boy getting a cut of what you get for selling your old recliner? Whether or not you think it's fair, everyone has the right to resell… -
Re: Team Fortress 2: 1850 Edition
@Swizzle Looks good overall, but the soldier's arms seem kind of amorphous. I am trying to imagine them being rigged or animated but there doesn't appear to be a clear elbow or arm shape under the tube sleeve. @DKK I think you should rework the mid section of this guy. From his armpits, his torso moves towards the center,… -
Re: CG_Society_Merc (WIP)
Looking pretty good. The face topology is pretty solid from what I can see of it. =) Crits: - The silhouette of the legs is kind of tubular. The pants should pinch in a lot more at the knees, especially since he has kneepads and straps. The wrinkles on his pants shouldn't be all the same height. Areas like around the mid… -
Re: Handpainting Normal Maps pixel by pixel (100% Photoshop - 0% HighPoly)
Just wanted to chime in to say this is really impressive! I love how consistent the style is between the different assets. Seems like handpainting normal maps would be very hard, but once you got the hang of it this would be a very fast way to work. -
What's the difference between a hard surface and a vehicle artists?
Does a hard surface artist additionally specialize in environment/architectural and weapon design? 2
