I wasn't being even remotely pissy. He told me "Imagine if construction workers would start painting an unfinished stack of bricks because they want to see how it will look like" then he pretty much advised me to do that. Let me get it clear because I, honestly, just don't understand you. I'm not being rude, just simply am…
Hey, its a good start :) I have to ask, are you self taught? Nothing wrong with this! As I was initially self taught and even got a job without ANY formal modeling/texturing or anything game related, training/education! I can definitely see immense improvement from the start of the sketchbook towards the middle/end. I am…
Yeah i tried that last time with the Nvidia dedicated gpu set to run photoshop and 3do, same problem. Also, photoshop and 3do and Ddo had administrator mode enabled. So heres a video showing the darkening mask issue. It happening twice within a minute or two of loading a new project and changing masks. I didn't do anything…
ah i know what you want this is what i did with my vertex paint mask. i plugged this into the alpha of the lerp for all the textures i wanted vertex painted, the what it does it make the grout with some clouds variation fill in first by the vertex paint followed by everything else. I can set the intensity low on the mesh…
Since you didn't go into specifics, I will tell you what I know about Blender's proportional editing and its axis/pivot control, and you can hopefully tell me how to get closer to the described behaviour? You can select 'enabled' under proportional editing, as well as 'connected' which is like 'surface' in Wings. You can…
Required skills can vary depending on the exact position and the project being worked on, so if someone doesn't know a particular software or workflow that's generally not a big deal for me provided they're willing to learn. What I've found to be the biggest issue are much more generalized skills like the ability to…
I love creating fan art I do it all the time sometimes I step outside and try my hardest to make my own stuff but I don't have much imagination for that or don't want to spend 2 months on a piece trying because we loose that drive 1 piece two months for me doesn't pan out as productive. (My opinion) The reasons for my fan…
Looks great Jason as your stuff always dose. I know this was a "warm up fun" scene and you dont plan to make any more changes which is understandable but out of all your other amazing work I feel this is your weakest piece. I know it is based off a piece of concept art but the final product just comes off as really bland…
Thank you very much for your time and your thorough examination of my portfolio. If it is not too much to ask, I had a few follow up questions on some of your critiques. I would also love to hear from anyone else on all of this as well. First of all, I am sorry about the absence of a link. I was worried that it might come…
Usually the internal artists don't talk much to the outsourcer. Note that there's often a language barrier which keeps artists from talking directly to each other. Usually we work in batches of items. At the client, someone makes the deicison that it saves money and/or time to give this to someone else. I assume this…
